Sweet... like the looks of these screen shots.. and thanks for highlighting the changes.. [e digicons]:thumbsup:[/e]

[quote]Like I wrote before: That's their choice. I -- as a customer -- make mine.[/quote] Q.F.T. Not going to get wrapped up in the miscellaneous debates going on in this thread.. other then to say Stardock has the right to decide what to charge, customer has right to decide to pay that price or not.. and for good or bad, each of them have to live with those decisions.

[quote who="onomastikon" reply="7" id="2714615"]I also find it difficult to give qualified feedback on a beta whose state has been called "painfully" boring by its developer, while at the same time realizing that it has gone gold. I too want to be able to give feedback in terms of gameplay balance and overall fun, but that is difficult for the reasons many posters above have listed. I too, therefore, belong to the group of testers who are still "missing something".[/quote] This w

[quote who="BlackRainZ" reply="185" id="2714647"]Seriously, the two or three people in this post complaining about LAN, your annoying. You got your expectations up on something that was never really clear to begin with. You should have handled the situation with just a little bit of class instead of whining like a child because that is exactly how it seems. If your really that upset, cancel your pre order, ask for a refund and move on. This is a product like any other, if you don't like it do

definitely seems to be a disconnect in understanding on how multiplayer will work .. (at least at first) it was my under standing that multiplayer would be handled by impulse reactor.. similar to steam, battlenet, and others handling of multiplayer.. there for no multiplayer with out being logged in to impulse.. they also hinted at eventual (as frogboy mentioned) of a future custom server.. how ever like last <a id="ctl00__Content__RepeaterReplies_ctl01__LinkUser" class="hand" t

Wow there are some very good tiles here... Nice work all of you...

[quote]We'll have to revisit the whole beta program thing after this since people were really expecting some sort of demo to comment on tweaking rather than participating in a real beta like the techies of the old days understood.[/quote] Some us knew what to expect.. from the Galciv days and information gleaned on these boards and the available videos.. Not only that some of us enjoyed the ride because we knew what to expect from a Stardock Beta.. Those who expec

While I myself am not a fan of any game that does not have at least one of the following.. Robots, aliens, monsters, and other critters from various realms of fantasy/fiction. If I did purchase the new MoH, I would not play as the Taliban .. but that's a personal choice and I have no problem the game allowing this many games allow you to play either side of it's campaign... I firmly believe the we each have the right to vote to support or not support any game we do not l

[quote who="Raven X" reply="62" id="2708852"] Quoting Twohawks, reply 60I also miss the classic x-com games.. (and I am not looking forward to the x-com shooter ) Hell if these games just got a graphic update they would still be a great game... (i have a real hard time going backwards that far on graphics heh) Check out this game called "Xenonauts", Twohawks. I've had my eye on it for a while now. It's shaping up to be what looks like a really awesome X-Com Clone. It has both

WHAT! [e digicons]8C[/e] [e digicons];)[/e]

To Brad and crew.. thanks for all the efforts on making what I suspect will be an awesome game for years to come. The level and amount of change I saw in the 4 beta's I was in were awesome.. It was clear as day that we helped shape some of the directions you went in.. I am like a kid waiting on Santa.. Damn it come on aug 24th... anyone got a flux capacitor so I can leap ahead... [e digicons]:grin:[/e]

Yup no real surprises here, but nice to see it in text ..

done..

Pie! Oh you mean one thing about game play... hmmm Dungeon crawls!

[quote who="Island Dog" reply="5" id="2709015"]Elemental has had previews in just about every major gaming publication that I can think of off-hand. Brad has taped an appearance on G4 to show off Elemental, and countless other gaming sites have been writing about it. And the demo will come after release. [/quote] actually they seem to have more then one date listed. for this page it is: <a href="http://g4tv.com/games/pc/63836/elemental-war-of-

cant you just share them through impulse reactor (as well)?

[quote who="BoogieBac" reply="34" id="2706045"]Just got to hold the final version of the boxes....the LE box is NUTS (5-6 inches WIDE...we could have put in a elemental coffee mug or something), and even the regular box is pretty damn slick. Very exciting! [/quote] Ok see now you have done it... where can i buy a Elemental:War of Magic coffee mug damn it.. If ya don't have them yet get on the stick. [e digicons]:w00t:[/e]

The root campaign of elemental is set in a unique fantasy world created by brad... therefore some of the more common races we often see do not exist.. that's not to say we could not add modded races or for that matter that some may show up as minor races.. game has 2 races each with factions with in it.. (except those turn coat Krax ). I am sure we will have many modded races and worlds full of all kinds of races as we go on. [e digicons]:D[/e]

[quote who="leeboy26" reply="16" id="2706026"]After the announcement X-com will be a bioshockesqe shooter, my expectations are somewhere in the Marianas trench.[/quote] agreed.. and after watching videos I am even more discouraged...

if this was whats known as a minor race city (usually has a guardian unit like pack dragon for example) then they never advance above level one in beta 4 at least... so i usually destroy and build my own near the site if it had good resources near it..

A X Com like game seems a natural especially if combined with Galciv ... Stardock make it so.... [e digicons]:cylon:[/e]
