I don't believe this has been mentioned, but one of the reasons I like the current city building mechanic in fe is that there is no other way to improve tiles. In civ, you had your workers building farms, mines and whatnot, but here there are just special resources and cities. We can't even build roads. Thus, the sprawl of a large city matched the civ type 1 tile city+improvements. Taking away the sprawl without adding anything else in its place will be

I don't particularly like the slot mechanic in cities as seen in 1z. It drastically limits your options on how you build up, as every city must be specialized due to size constraints rather than economic ones.

I think having that weird 'A' icon in the bottom interface start flashing (and possibly getting bigger/getting a tooltip) would be a good way to remind someone that they aren't researching something without outright stopping the game for them via a message box they have to click through.

Just got done with a game of elemental. No crashes, only real problem is that edgescrolling doesn't work with dual monitors. There isn't much of a game here yet, and what is there is hard to critique (for example, what distinguishes the various housing types? No info at all is provided about them). So - is there basically no feedback to give, apart from bug reports, right now?
