[quote who="Jae Kaenash" reply="11" id="2743811"] Normally, most games are fairly intuitive to me. This one hasn't been. I've tried the Campaign, and I can't quite figure it out. It needs a much better tutorial mission that teaches you everything for all the races. [/quote] O/T This has nothing to do with the post, and their are plenty of threads it does relate to. I think its great people are buying it after seeing in
I was thinking that it would be cool if during the game, there could be a chance that a unit can upgrade itself into a champion. I'm not saying every unit should have the ability but it could be a rare event, it would add an interesting event I at least think. A hero through the ranks or some such.
[quote who="tevans6220" reply="113" id="2743771"] Quoting AbsynthMinded, reply 100 I object to anyone suggesting that SD does not deserve awards for EWOM.. The game is good looking and fun to play, even with all its faults. Once the technical issues are resolved it will not take long to balance things up.. If not for the issues hanging over it, EWOM would be a superior game for both vanilla settings and the potential of the modding. All I'm g
[quote who="lswallie" reply="92" id="2743385"]Devs constantly tout how modders will improve the game. I want a finished game from the devs - not modders. [/quote] Part of the marketing for this game is the mod tools, so of course they talk about. However, they also talk abot what they are going to improve themselves, there are threads from devs on it that you can look at. https://forums.elementalgame.c
I loved MoM as well as anyone, but it ws a buggy mess on release and didn't finally get patched up till a year after release.

[quote who="fatindian" reply="45" id="2742548"] Quoting Krooldeath, reply 42 My God, does anyone appreciate the fact SD created a PC game rather than follow the console route. Have we become that shallow and selfish that what they are trying to do (and will succeed) is not good enough? When have we last saw a game like this? Krool You are such a fanboy, it isn't even funny. We're supposed to
Interesting I did not know that.
[quote who="Corbeaubm" reply="37" id="2742504"] Quoting Lord_Asmodeous, reply 31 You are aware that not everyone is hit by most of these bugs, right? I for one only crash if I alt-tab. I have two computers sitting on my desk, so my need to alt-tab is negligible, so it's a non-issue to me, or I could just run it in a window, which is fine. The only other bug I get is the one where the sound cuts out periodically. It's worked fine for me since the 0-day beyond
Wow just about impossible to read.

Why was the game released this early. Allow me to pose this question...would you rather they had not released the game, and waited 3 months while they work on it? Or, pay and have the game now and at least be able to play it whi

[quote who="skunkpuppy" reply="23" id="2742391"]I paid for a good, fun game which I would look forward to playing. I got a confused mess of nonsense. I don't care whether Stardock had a great track record or that it supports the community or whatever. Right now, the game sucks and I'm angry!

[quote who="solidsmooky" reply="87" id="2742229"]Unfortunately, Elemental only has until Civ 5's release to fix itself. Once Civ 5 comes it's a wrap. We all know this.

These are some great ideas, well done. Nice not to see, the interface sucks and thats it. A mod did come by btw.
I'm not sure what you mean by unplayable? I can play no problem, there are balance issues, but those will get ironed out. Some people seem to be still having crashes, I'm lucky in the fact that it doesn't happen to me. But, you are entitled to your own opinion.

[quote who="b0rsuk" reply="42" id="2741286"]Surlybob: Let's even assume Blizzard games are successful with press now because they're made by famous Blizzard. How do you think they've arrived at their current position ? 2) By polishing less than perfect games until they're at least enjoyable 1) By not releasing broken games. Here's the list of games Blizzard worked on, but cancelled so as to not damage their reputation:
I agree with OP.
