Haven't got mining technology yet. I can't build on a gold site in my territory, but I can build on an iron ore one. The former cites correctly that I lack the technology. The second simply says an iron mine will cost ten gildar, and as I've got 25, it's highlighted rather than grayed out.
[quote who="Leo in WI" reply="14" id="3132581"]Read through that impressive list, have a question: (hope I'm not a dummy and missed it in there) Did initiative get fixed?

I blinked in surprise when casting haste on one of my faster units, and slow on a large, slow-moving enemy, meant [i]three[/i] attacks (non-contiguous) on my foe befor

Excellent points, all.
Still not finding a \programdata\ subdirectory with the zipfile, even with all directories unhidden. Got a couple of \programdata\ subdirectories in SDCentral\Temp and Stardock\Impulse\DockData, but nothing was in them. Did find a debug.err file in My Games/Fallen Enchantress, which I've sent along.
Just that. It's easy enough to get the kingdom/empire benefits effects from the existing eight sovereigns, then note which one you want. But if you want to create your own character and decide to change the kingdom/empire later while designing a sovereign, as it stands now you don't know what benefits they'll get. You'll have to jump back to the eight sovereigns' screen, or make notes of those benefits before you move on. I'm thinking that a pop

Good one, Draginol. :) Intellectual ownership has always been a rather vague boundary for the big corporations. Steve Jobs touring PARC back in 1979, and getting a Smalltalk demo complete with the brand new, utterly secret GUI by the suits over the protests of the engineers...? Then that GUI shows up almost immediately in Jobs' own work. And nothing had been patented. But you're right: at its height, Microsoft was the King of Assimilation. 
I'm still curious how they'll implement gods and their quests--just how individual they'll make each, including rewards, punishments, and visuals. Sacrifice did an excellent job of this, but of course, the quests were the main game. Here, quests are only a part of game design, though a significant part. I'd really like to see some differentiation between the gods, including a special building for each, if you've pleased them greatly--but we'll see.</p
[quote who="larienna" reply="63" id="3132543"]I don't want to promote competition, but I never heard of Warlock. I took a quick look and it looks cool ... because there is hexagons (I a an hexagon worshippper). But it sincerely looks like Civ V with magic. I hope this game would be modable, I could make a master of magic for that mod too. That could be interesting, 2 MOM mod on different games that share ressources like artwork, music and otehr stuff.[/quote]

[quote who="Ratatosk7" reply="43" id="3132424"]Ah another week I guess?[/quote] What evidence leads you to think so? Brad stated last week that they didn't want to rush the patch to get it to us, then, and would have it to us this week. The rest of Thursday and Friday remain.

And even if you've installed them, the way installed mods are handled in Bethsoft games--unless they're texture-only mods--you can just turn them all off by leaving them unchecked on the data screen, before the game loads. It's very easy to do.

[quote who="LordTheRon" reply="151" id="3132288"]Last week is was delayed by a week, so that means we're expecting beta 3 today unless a dev comes here to post that this will not be the case.[/quote] Delayed by a week doesn't necessarily mean delayed by exactly 7 days. ;)

Can't speak for anybody else, but it's always seemed to me that if some head developer sits around afterhours discussing the latest game session they've had with their friends, chances are they're indie.

[quote who="Kongdej" reply="65" id="3132057"] Quoting Glazunov1, reply 64But it was a nuisance, and didn't make modders feel any too happy about Bethsoft when we discovered some of the "shortcuts" that had been taken in the game. Gonna be a bit blunt here, but that is only because you were trying to mod the game, I do not think the developers always "thinks in those lines" when coding the game Then again, what do I know, I just know I stopped playing Skyrim after it
