[quote who="Tiberonmagnus" reply="20" id="2721460"] Is it also coming out today for pre-orders? Guess not [/quote] yes, it is... see the original post... :)

[quote who="Cruxador" reply="56" id="2720172"] Now, as far as Elemental's graphics... I agree that it often looks overly simplistic. I think it could benefit from some induced noise in a lot of places. that's something that could be induced later, as a patch, though it might be tough depending on how things are implemented. Overall, though, I'd say it's fine as is, it just takes a moment to get used to. [/quote] i dont know... i personally dig the color scheme, pallett
[quote who="aerowreck" reply="9" id="2719786"]Looks like the AI, while still in development, already is more than a match for many players. [/quote] *feebly raises his hand* you can count me in that number... but practice, as they say, makes perfect... and i aims to practice... ;) edit: oh, and thanks again for these installments frogboy!
^^well thats intriguing... :) out of curiosity, is there any connection between the campaign and the rest of the game? will my coveted items from one, be accessible in the other?
(insert insightful response here) i so love the lore being crafted here... [e digicons]:inlove:[/e]
[quote who="Annatar11" reply="23" id="2718652"] My personal guess would be about a month. That's roughly how long it took to put out the Sins demo, if I remember right. Granted Sins wasn't developed by SD, but I think they'll go for the same reasoning: if they have really high priority stuff planned for a few patches, and they want the demo to be representative of the game, they're likely to wait for a little bit to patch up any of these issues before putting out a demo. Roughly a
my i partially hijack this thread with a completely innocuous question? has there been any mention of timeframes for a demo after release? my searches so far of the dev journals have yielded no results...
i'm one of the "lucky" few, who only recently discovered Elemental... although i have effectively been on auto-pilot at work this entire week in anticipation of release next week... [e digicons]O:)[/e]
[quote who="Frogboy" reply="24" id="2717850"] These two things make the AI very problematic. It's something I am going to be addressing more this weekend. In the long run, it'll probably take about a year or two for me to be truly happy with the AI though. [/quote] i applaud your dedication... [e digicons]:thumbsup:[/e] [quote who="Frogboy" reply="25" id="2717852"] Well Lord Moco and his wife Mierda will certainly keep things interes
thanks for this... its most appreciated, and does indeed help me get through the workday! :)
you saw Elemental on a store shelf? [e digicons]:|[/e] are you sure it wasnt a "pre-release" box?
[quote who="skdyer" reply="38" id="2716033"]Sure they are readable. But the problem is that they look generic. Interesting fonts go a long way toward making the experience feel more fun and feel less like reading a memo at work. [/quote] agreed... the fonts have no applied alias (at least, not the larger title text)... looks very rough... having said that, thats just about the most minor quibble i think i could comment on... :)
