A year ago you would have never convinced me that I would take time off from a newly released Diablo III, to play a EFE beta. Yet thats what Im doing today. D3 is good but not great, lots of fluff I like substance, debth choices and gameplay. Im hoping that EFE dilivers. So far it looks good.

Agree with everything very strongly except the flying units, I don't miss them at all.
Its really alot simpler than all that. Some buildings provide an amount of food after you build them, some buildings need that food before you can build them. If a building provides 4 food you can build 4 other buildings that need 1 each.
Agreed. But please, please, please make the computer AI play smarter.
You do realize that you have to build up to the beech with other buildings so that everything is connected yes? This threw me off for quite awhile.
I've never lost either. Hardest level against 5 hostile empires and it barely gives a challenge. 1.08 does play a little better but way more is needed in AI department. For one, computer just isnt aggresive enough. I leave cities unportected all the time. It doesnt fight well on tactical either.
Not sure I like general mana pool concept. I think current way works fine
1.08 is a good step in right direction. I'm gonna miss the Sov led super stack with 5 moves. But any way... -Missile weapons are definatly bugged took dozens of shots with them and not a one hit, even against 0 def targets. -Champion skill (I forget actual name) that deals a max blow and "can't miss" MISSED! Other stuff... -Not sure I'm gonna like the move to a global mana pool. -Missile weapons should get attack bonus from dex instead of str.
I don't get it. What strategy I use doesnt seem to matter, I get absolutely zero challenge from the AI. Yet in a number of threads ppl talk as if they do. Ive been playing tbs strategy games like this a long time but Im hardly Sirna Kolrami. For me this lack of resistance is the games bigest fault.
Please balance the equipment bought in the store. By turn 150 I had 4 heros in Legendary plate, A legendary shield shouldn't cost the same as the others. Probably needs to be 10-50 times more expensive.
Just fix it so the computer challenges me. My 2nd game I was the lone kingdom against 5 empires and owned them on the most difficult setting.
Ever since I bought civilization for my Amiga in 1991, TBS 4x type games are my favored type, I play them alot. This one is good, real good. But im sorry to say Ive never seen a worse AI So buy it to have some fun but not if you want a challenge.
Too hard!? You gotta be kidding me. I played on ridiculus against 5 hostile empires (myself as kingdom) and it was basically a cake walk. I really really like this game but they gotta smartin up the AI .... LOTS.
