any time there are 3 or more resource tiles (or 2 REALLY good ones) I'll build a city

[quote who="nem8" reply="2" id="2765226"]It might be in it.. There is no guarantee tho. And why does your post title have a question mark when you even quote the statement confirming the delay? [/quote]maybe implying that tuesday is a hopeful thing, not a definite?

Anyone know how to make it so that tab doesn't select caravans that are already trading with towns? It's so irritating.

The way you play a game like this multiplayer is you have saves and you come back to it, just like the single player. Right?

[quote who="MrMT" reply="23" id="2762712"]I'm not sure why, but playing a game on normal, these guys barely bothered me... once or twice some big spider/troll would threaten my towns, but a rare inconvenience. Pretty much the same as the AI. The entire game seemed to consist of collecting goodie huts, hunting down monsters as I wondered beyond my zone, and wiping out any other faction I came across in a single battle (sovereign death). I suspect my starter sovereign (one of the pre

I've been having fun with the game. Fixing those damn squads so they don't disappear when damaged during saving was my biggest gripe.

[quote who="AlixeniusTheGreat" reply="20" id="2762692"]Lol, true enough, multiplayer has been around for quite a while, but until recent days multiplayer meant playing with a friend in the same room or over a LAN. I'm talking online infrastructure multiplayer, which has surfaced only recently. Developers realized that they could make people pay for this coveted resource, and thus figured they could make people pay for more than that too, they could remove side content from the game and releas

[quote who="Rabenhoff" reply="15" id="2763432"] EDIT I checked IGN's statement on "how we grade". But how bad is a 6.0 really? It says "passable", which reads like "playable, but not great", but how often do they attribute this or better grades? Or in other words: does IGN have a histroy of grade-inflation, which would make a 6.0 really really bad? [/quote]Just look at their other scores. AFAIK, they're one of the sites that rates between 5 and 10, not 1 and 10. S

****ing shards, how do they work?

Mah book just arrived. Got it as a wedding present. Hehe.

What we’re going to do is that for users who own the game by a certain date will get (at least) the first expansion pack for free as a token of our appreciation for hanging in there with us. As some long-time Stardock gamers can tell you, our expansion packs aren’t minor things. - nice The elemental spell books (earth, air, fire, water) will get moved out of character creation and into the tech tree so that players can determine what spell books they wa

huh. Woke up from a 4 hour nap (is that still a nap?) to the patch. neat

how old are we today?

[quote who="Carewolf" reply="26" id="2752996"]I like the tile limit, if anything it is too high. One problem though is that includes resources. This means that if you merge with the resource-squares your city suddenly use 4 tiles extra. This means you have to be "gamey" and avoid merging into resources unless you need collective defense (like on a frontier). [/quote]stardock dude just said he THINKS that that will be addressed in the patch that SHOULD be coming out at some point today</p

You could just set it to 1 AI You have to research warfare to get companies and squads (I think that's what you're talking about?)

[quote who="BoogieBac" reply="9" id="2752619"]There's a lot to learn from the release of Elemental, and 'let's make every launch like this one!' is not one of them [/quote][e digicons]:-"[/e] heheh

lol i think you're reading too much into it. [e digicons]:jafo:[/e]

Alan Wake :)

Eh. No harm in asking. Edit: In response to your second question, I think you can trade things like metal and materials with other AIs for gold or various other things. I haven't messed with trading yet, so I'm not sure how well or balanced it is/works.

[quote who="Master_of_Magic" reply="16" id="2752532"] So what would be considered free content if that excludes patches and expansion packs? any examples? [/quote]like an extension to a campaign or a new campaign or a tutorial edit: new creatures, new spells, new buildings, new whatever that's not just fixing a bug or an expansion pack

it's at the top of the screen

oh OHHH that explains why that city can't build any more >_>

Wonder if we'll need to start new saves. Whatever, I'm ready for a new map anyway.
