[quote who="Frogboy" reply="115" id="2753566"]I think, for starters, the first expansion pack for Elemental - Book 2, will have to be given away for free to the people who already bought the game. In my mind, that's a START. So, anyone who sticks with is going to get at least one free expansion pack out of it. And it won't be some piddly "look, it's a new campaign". Think Dark Avatar level expansion. [/quote] Speechless

[quote who="Xiara" reply="29" id="2753484"]Blizzard is single handedly saving the market with Starcraft 2, WoW expansion and eventually Diablo III. Civilization 5 will also help immensley. Id is working on Doom 4, Valve is promising some big secret reveals this year, I'm seeing alot of indie developers coming up with interesting games more often. HOMM6 was announced...I dunno, outlook seems bright for imo. Now if we could just get some new original games for pc I'd be ver

[quote who="Alkari" reply="13" id="2753530"]This game sucks.[/quote] Yeah, you too, but we welcome you anyway ;)

Mmmh that's a lot of words to digest... As a customer that starts his relationship with SD here, with elemental, my rational brain would have me asking for a refund. My cash is limited, my time is limited etc,etc... But I guess I'll just follow my heart once more and wait ;) you seem really serious about this. I'll just add two cents, that will probably get lost in the thread but... 1) A Crisis can really be turned i

[quote who="Annatar11" reply="8" id="2753079"] There are much better ways to fix scaling on champions and sovereign to squads than letting them stack 50 necklaces for stat bonuses [/quote] This! Jewel stacking is just a placebo... But I can see how it is the only way atm to keep champions useful. We need more radical changes! Edit: to be clear... all the resources you spend to "dress" your champions could be actually used

[quote who="Vhorthex" reply="16" id="2752936"] Lots of wisdom [/quote] Seconded! (sorry I edited but I hate wasting space!)

Best wishes! Let's hope the devs decide to release 1.7 as a gift for you :D

If you were in fact a "Psychologyst", you would probably know how to spell it. [/quote] The possibility that I'm not an english speaker never passed trough your mind ;) ? I'm Italian and english is my 3rd language

[quote who="Gene1966" reply="7" id="2752809"]One thing Ive been doing is IMBUEing all champions with INT >12 There Int will affect the damage dealt plus (maybe wrong here) it seems to affect the "To Hit" of spells too. My caster with 15 INT does way more damage and seems to hi more often than one I used with INT of 10. Another thing I do is pile all new casters with my Sov and run around levelling up the group fighting NPC's doing Quests and such (early thru early mid-game

[quote who="Vhorthex" reply="5" id="2752805"] And do shard simply contribute to "dmg", or does it offer extra resistance to that element?[/quote] I was under the impression that elemental resistance and damage are nonexistant, you just have damage, defense and "true damage" (bypasses defense) Oh, and btw this sucks! (Correct me if I'm wrong I would be glad to stand corrected)

[quote who="No118" reply="2" id="2752791"]My question is why WOULD you pick more than one spellbook? Since a lot of the spells are just the same spell with a different effect slapped on there doesn't seem to be much point picking up the other spellbooks when those points could be used elsewhere. The only real reason to get multiple spellbooks is to cover you in case no shards of your selected element are near to your starting location... only shards don't work at the moment anyway.[/quote]</p

Yes there is a tec in warfare to do that, Either press "x" or select the action from the action menu Edit:damn nnjd ;)

[quote who="solidsmooky" reply="101" id="2752779"]No you aren't. lol no you aren't.[/quote] Illuminating!

Sorry, you just called peoples fanboys and nerds, but since you have such a low mental capacity, I can understand. I'm actually a Psychologyst in R/L, and to answer your previuous post, since I am already working on the mental stability of other peoples I can't be bothered to work on yours too... You know, just one thing at a time! Bye

[quote who="Sythion" reply="26" id="2752760"] Quoting Rabenhoff, reply 17Everybody is different. And the fact that Stardock is offering a very generous "refund" policy tells me that at least they do understand this ... even if not everybody on the forum does. Ironically, their refund policy is technically not applicable to people who preorder more than 90 days in advance, since the 90 day refund window starts at purchase, and games are non-refundable until release.

[quote who="solidsmooky" reply="95" id="2752748"] I was just giving one example. I've posted any others at other time but did not feel the need or desire to repeat myself.[/quote] Then don't demand that other peoples understand you. Still I would like to know, wich contenct would you add that in your opinion would be better than stability and bugfix? [quote who="solidsmooky" reply="96" id="2752751"] Can they only work on one thing

[quote who="solidsmooky" reply="90" id="2752729"]Pah... adding features that make the game better? No.. tis trivial. Let us keep this same boring and soulless world. The nerds and fanboys decree it so![/quote] Sorry to sound rude but, 1)the game has problems. Many. We all know that by now and is quite useless to keep up talking so... 2)Don't you think it would be better to solve the more pressing issues? Adding more content would just add more problems a

[quote who="Chronobomb" reply="3" id="2752687"]There is a spell Imbue champion that turns another hero into a caster. It costs 3 essence points and starts you new hero on their way to becoming a channeler. I recommend only doing this on lvl 1 heroes as it quickly let you level their essence up. You need 16 mana to get most of the best summons.[/quote] Mmmh I think differently. When you start adding some shards and a couple of temple of essence

[quote who="solidsmooky" reply="86" id="2752628"]Have you added any new features to the game? Are you going to let us create female troops no matter what nation? Please address egalitarian [/quote] Come on man :D they surely will, eventually, let's stick to more pressing issue... Don't you think?

Been there done that ;)

[quote who="BoogieBac" reply="9" id="2752619"]Right below this thread, on the forums list, was another post called "I did not pay to Fix or Finish Elemental", which I beleive is (ironically) the answer to your question. When we put something out, and it gets a 50% dissatisfaction rate on our own forums, that's a HUGE chunk of our customers that feel it wasn't ready to be put out. There's a lot to learn from the release of Elemental, and 'let's make every launch like this one!'

[quote who="Verkinix" reply="1" id="2752575"] Those with the loudest voices against its "condition at release" were those who pirated the game and couldn't get the release patch. They got a buggy prerelease version and were upset about it. [/quote] Errrr..... No, really no. I'm happy with the game, but I know at least 3 ppl in real life and lots of them on the net that own a legit copy, patched to 1.6, that are

No, they do not grow, even if they reach high level of population for a lev 1 city (this has no effect in game that I am aware of...). In addition to the special tile (Ogres usually), each one also produces 1 resource (crystal or metal IIRC) and you'll add that to your income if you conquer them. The purple ones (called the mystics iirc) have crystal production for example, I tend to steamroll them early if I have no other source of crystals near my start...

[quote who="TyLarson" reply="12" id="2752523"]I posted an idea about reworking the attribute system that would give different resistances via the attributes depending on what was being attacked by the spell. At least that was part of the idea.[/quote] Linky? Also, sorry to bother, but what is the game you are using as avatar? It looks familiar to me but I can't nail it down...

[quote who="searro" reply="2" id="2752465"]pretender [/quote] Hehe an hint someone has been playing Dom3, or am I wrong ;) ? To the OP, thx for the mod! I eagerly await the day we can install a "Community Armorioum" full of lovely custom contenct. For the time being I'll gladly use what you kindly offered in my games!
