You could consider giving access to FE beta to some popular Youtube bloggers which make gameplay videos. (Couple of FE fans already made gamaplay videos, but they are not popular enough.) Paradox did this. They gave access to beta of Warlock: Master of the Arcane to a few fairly subscribed Youtube bloggers and voilà 10 thousand views in a single day (all FE beta

[quote who="Das123" reply="50" id="3064793"]I'll definitely be getting Warlock as well as playing FE. Looking forward to both. To be honest, Warlock will need to be pretty damned special to compete with Fallen Enchantress. Totally agree that the more games in this genre the better for everyone.[/quote] As it was earlier said, this game are making guys responsible for Fantasy Wars ( 1C: Ino-Co ) -- a very nice, rather simple turn-b

From Warlock's forums: [quote]And quite honestly after putting a significant amount of time into the FE beta, the only things that have changed since WoM are very shallow cosmetic fixes and additions.[/quote] This is so obviously not true. Why those fanboys are doing this? ;( It would be terrific if BOTH GAMES were great. Like you said Frogboy "The more games in the TBS genre the better off we all are."

[quote who="stevty2889" reply="34" id="3064610"]Whats the point of having a big world, if you can't reach half of it?[/quote] Is that the case in FE beta (I don't have access to it)?

[quote who="Solam" reply="28" id="3064468"]I'm not programing geek but MOM hafd boats? right? So did Warcraft 2? Those games are similar to this game? right? Very coofused.[/quote] Age of Wonders 1 also had transport boats. Did you see how AI used them? In fact it was hilarious -- for example, sometimes it loaded them with troops just to unload them in the same place. In Warcraft 2 sea transports were easier to manage since the maps were not rando

I know how to deal with oceans. Make them 1 meter deep!

Another issue guys: black margins . Some FE gameplay videos when played in full screen mode look like this and other like this (both screenshots are from James009D's videos). Possible explanation (I'm no expert, correct me if I'm wrong): I think you don't always keep the screen aspect ratio of recorded video the

I second this. I've been looking for some decent Let's Play video to show it to ppl (on other forums, etc.). Nothing good enough. There is one with commentary , but it's recorded in low quality (480p). Other one is recorded in HD (1080p), but there is no commentary (the guy seems to narrate with mouse cursor -- have a look!). <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v

[quote who="Zozz" reply="11" id="3060924"] Quoting Kantok, reply 9 quoting post I personally love the strong monster near the starting point. It makes the early goings stressful. I think I'm in the minority there though. This. I love the monsters as well. The world is supposed to be dangerous. Adapt your strategy depending on your situation.

I see. It's good you moders are already testing some new options.

[quote] It will have to start with increasing the experience requirements for each level. This will make heroes less strong and less adventurous. It will force the player to use trained units in conjunction with heroes. [/quote] I still would like to have an option to create uber-heroes which can face whole armies. Balancing -- yes, but not at cost of narrowing playing styles. Just leveling hero to uber-state should be h ard.

Making unique looking races takes time (therefore resources, therefore money) . It's not early 90s when you could create an animated warrior with wings in a few hours [e digicons];P[/e] Flying race would be so awesome ! [e digicons]:w00t:[/e] So I agree with you, of course.

[quote who="vieuxchat" reply="15" id="3059730"]The only thing I miss is a "silly" splash screen at start[/quote] I never played WoM. Could I see this "silly" splash screen?

[quote]Either of you two available to run for President? I'm certain either of you could do a better job than the current jobholder.[/quote] I dunno. They would make channelers, you know... 1% [e digicons]:grin:[/e]

You guys keep comparing FE to WoM. It's natural, but what about MoM, AoW, HoMM, etc.?

I love the birds singing. Are they carnivorous? [e digicons]:grin:[/e] edit: Why did you attack your mate? [e digicons]o_O[/e] edit2: First quest: rats. Baldur's Gate, anyone?

[quote who="Zozz" reply="10" id="3058892"]So, I read this and decided I'd try to do a live stream. I plan to play for a bit tonight, starting at about 6:30pm EST. I have downloaded the game and am planning to stream the install (that should be fun), the tutorial and then some sandbox play. I've never done a livestream anything before, so it'll likely be hot garbage and I probably will do some dumb embarrassing stuff, but you are welcome to check it

I'm from post-communist country in Eastern Europe. When I was a child I associated the word "freedom" with word "America" (meaning "USA"). Not any more.

[quote who="Kestral2040" reply="5" id="3058721"]it's something we will look into when all the videos are done (and/or closer to release). They are very specific to nitty gritty "how to play the game" topics, however, that may be better suited to the game than a website. [/quote] So I guess I must buy the game!

[quote who="BoogieBac" reply="2" id="3058679"]The tutorial was designed to be a 10-15 minute affair, teaching the basics (cities, units, magic, and battles) in a very streamlined fashion. We have a system to bring up additional tutorial videos in-game for more advanced topics (of which there are many), and will be adding informative videos up through gold [/quote] Will the videos be available on elementalgame.com as well? I just would like some more content :)

How long did it take you to finish it? Post some screenshots, please [e digicons]:grin:[/e]
