Most often people who troll is usually unsatisfied customers who did bought the game and want share their disappointment with entire world :) So it will not help. The "serial thing" invented just not to spend support time on pirates.
The TS has a point, ideally it would be nice to have different damage type and resistances to a different damage types for different units/creatures , same for the magic. And this thing better be shown both in train and combat screens.
[quote]The problems mentioned in the PC GAMER article are specific hardware related issues.[/quote] Agreed. ad such problem ALWAYS happen on release, in many cases it's drivers or user hardware to blame, however, in this case problems (different levels of severity) happens at more then 50% of users which is not acceptable. And it just emphasize my argument that game was not tested well enough.
I was banned from X3 (same registration as suggested here) forums due the fact that I mentioned that I quote myself "I can understand people pirating the game that does not have demo, paying $50 for cat in the sack is not pleasant" . So moderator banned me under the flag of "promoting software piracy". Since it was the same system I stopped to get updates, mods and could not get support (since forum account was connected to serial number). Not something I think in worm about...
[quote]Look guys, the game compiled. If there are bugs, we assume the compiler should have caught them. That's what the compiler is for. Now, none of us have had time to load the game or try it out but I'm sure it's fine.[/quote] Time to fire compiler?
[quote]The game was untested. I'm a beta tester and I haven't seen most of this stuff cobbled together for the last minute release. You can't flesh out a whole game, AND test it 'in house' in a month. I suspected that would be impossible, and it clearly was. But make no mistake, no beta tester saw this game.[/quote] +1 I even made a post about it on original Beta forum, before release, when it was just announced that it went "gold" ( <a href="https://forums.elementalgame.com/3
[quote]Hey if you had read Brads comments long before the game release he said "The game will NEVER BE FINISHED". But, your comment that it was untested is fail and wrong of course. That it is a great game is correct though.[/quote] It depends on what you mean by "finished". If you mean it will always frequently crash and exhibit all other bugs (double building, stuck in combat, resources you can't click on, "stuck" quests especially in campaign, particle effects and sounds that disap
The more I play the more I convinced the game is unplayable and more I like it. Paradox? No, Greatest strategy game of the decade, but bugs kill all the fun. So article has a point. StarDock brought it on iteslf by releasing unfinished and untested game. Great game however.
[quote]yes indeed but it's also the most monitored... can't take a dump without sarkozy knowing it [/quote] Police state indeed :) - internet monitoring, ban on "burka" , deportation of gipsys...
I recommend to wait at least another week. The game is great but it's really buggy. So wait until they iron them out. On the other hand, the game will not be cheaper in that time, so you can buy now and play later :)
France actually has best and fastest internet in Europe.
First question - are you sure you oredered game with disk? Because if you didn't - it will not be sent to you. Btw: out of interest, which country is it? Kazahstan?
Found on one of the forums: "If you buy ATI/AMD - you supporting terrorism" [e digicons]:omg:[/e]
Brad, admit it - you made great game but the launch is a total failure. The game is totaly unstable, buggy and rushed 1.05 version , while fixing some stability issues (only some) made game unplayable due to inconsistent behavior of almost all components. So please, please , please take a time and do a "good release" , does not matter how it called 1.1 or 1.5 or 10.0, as long as it stable and reliable.And in the future please consider investing more time in real beta testing.
1.05 crashes less (but still crashes on load and some other cases) and effects disappear much less frequent. However it much worse then 1.0, I do not know why but more strange stuff happens then in original version - stuff you can't buy, trade, equip, strange unit's stats, unclicable resources, having to click several times in combat... From that perspective even 1.0 was less stable but much more playable. So guys, developers, if you reading this - do not rush to
You get ship near she shore (real shore, not just coast line, the one that looks "lowered") , then select units the same way you do in city and then right click on shore.
1 - right click on him.
After you kill a dragon you have a short movie and the game ends (at least book 1) and you sent to main menu.
minors are not level up.
I believe there is no "building queues" , al lthe buildings are built in same time , the "queue" just shows you how many turns left until completion.
Race of your soverign?
I also noticed that in combat when you start to use ranged units (like archers) you have to target lower right corner to get mouse cursor changed to an bow, sometimes even the neighboring square (the one that at 4-5 o'clock from yours)
Agree on 2 and 3, don't care about 1, did not checked 5, did not encountered 4 :)
You need to kill another "set" of them, this time on peninsula bellow and left of the village.
Stupid question, but how you switch map types?
