They were up front with how the beta would be from the start...cloth map only and then would add in features. Heck it even said on the opening screen about how painful this would be. I appreciated the honesty and the chance to try it out. I really loved when they added that old homage to dos games and thought that was great. They listened to ideas and made changes and have done a great job!
Holy cow..i just noticed im only about 8k member number from Kyro. I wonder if I keep moving up if I can be an employee!! :) I suppose I could pay ya to be employed lol
Ill be honest and say I dont read the EULA very much at all. Is that dump, probably, but to me alot of whats in there doesnt make much sense anyway. Its kinda like a bill going thru Congress thats 2000 pages long...I just dont understand it! Anyways, I wouldnt give games to friends, as to me, thats illegal just from a common sense view. Then again, they often call me a "goody goody" cause I wont get movies and other stuff off the net that I consider wrong.
Ahh ok Frog. I understand that and no issues with that whatsoever. Basically, with my serial number I can put it onto my laptop and desktop and not have to buy another then, if im reading it right. But that computer would still need Impulse to run it then, or is that only for Multi and updating? I did notice when you play the beta 4 that it had an update feature on it. Ive actually played around a bit with Impulse and like what it does. Do you see the futur
So let me get this straight...Since I have bought the CE edition of Elemental, you are going to let me put it onto another machine, then my wife could play the same version in multiplayer on our LAN? And all she would need is an account?? Is that correct?? If so wow...simply wow. I mean my wife's computer is actually mine too, since its what I had til I upgraded, but it seems that most other companies would be making me buy another copy, since copies seem to only be at
Woot!!! Thanks so much for doing that for us. Cant wait to play and not have all the crashes that I do now.(from that darn memory leak)
Wow thats really neat that we are, in a way, playing thru a book now!! Im really looking forward to this game and the book coming out. Im also looking forward to messing with the editors and seeing what can be made and added. I loved working on the XML for GC, though I had to learn it basically from scratch. Still the results were worth it! Thanks again for the hard work!
More please!! :) Looks very nice and I notice quite a difference. Any more you can post to tide us over. Ive given up on B4, because of the memory crashing and what not. Was just getting to much haha. So Im really excited and its hard to wait! Tell everyone good job for me plz!
Im defiantly for the X-com. I still dont understand why someone doesnt just take the basic game and revamp it for today. You could have a turn based feature or real time. Could even throw in multi player by having friends able to jump in as your soldiers or what not. Re do the tech trees and make them more modern and then add in alien tech and more. I think if anyone could do it, its Lord Frog and his army of super duper game makers!!
Ive already ordered the CE version of the game, but im curious on release day, will I be able to DL the whole game(CE version) thru Impulse, or will I have to wait til I get the game via mail? Also, is your book going to be in Hard cover or just paper back? I always prefer Hard for some reason, but just wanted to know before I order. Is Amazon the place to do that from? Sorry about all the questions, I know you all are busy and I always appreciate when anyone can get o
I for one dont mind waiting and you could even bring back that neat Dos game like screen you had which I loved. I would start up the game just o see that! My wife came in and was like "What the hell is that"? And I responded "That my dear is what games used to be like!"
Whew...so glad to hear that. Thanks for letting me know! Appreciate your hard efforts!
Will I have to have my internet up to play Elemental? I know for my beta one I have to have internet going and have been bummed about that at times. I live in ND and sometimes lose internet for hours on end and like to mess with the beta, but it wouldnt let me. Is this going to be the same with retail? Is this also what Civ V will be shipping with...that if I dont have internet at times im s o l? If so, thats a bummer. Im not knocking Impulse as it seems re
Any chance of you signing some of the books so we can order them? Might be corny, but I think it would be great to have you sig on your first book!
They do deserve big kudos and the improvements in 4 were nice. Cant wait to see the polished and basically done product(yes I know something is truly never done because of patches, etc). I get so sick of those troll threads where people complain about everything...sheesh. No matter who makes the game you have whiners and ive seen them too on these forums. Lord Frog gave them some heck in one post too and I agree with him. So...great job and another great game for
I would have to disagree with you PawelS on it be OP. It still went off your spells researched and the more you tried to enchant the longer it would take to make. If you skill was uber, that certainly helped and on the harder lvls, you needed it all to compete against some of those sky drakes and worse. Still, I can see what you are saying, but I really liked making the weapons. I just hope they have something that allows you to make them, both minor stuff and major.&n
Ahh ok...well at least thats something then. I really hope they do put it in as I love to create stuff and arm my champs with it. Not sure if they will ever do something like making mass amounts for reg troops. thanks though for the info
Will there be an Item maker like MoM had? I know that was one of the things I loved more was making my own magical items and artificats. I used to take the artificer ability alot to help with that. I havnt seen anything like that yet, and was wondering if it is planned to be added or if we just use whatever you find in the game. I have yet to really find any magical items and only have used what i researched in the warfare tree. If there are posts about this alre
So nothing else we can help with til the release then? Sigh. Im sad. One thing I would really like to see though is that cute beginning intros they had, as if it was a DoS game. That really made me laugh to see it haha. Brought back memories. Any chance that will be on the collectors edition?
1. Number Uno for me is fun...thats it..just plain fun. Make it fun like MoM was and the early Civs and you cant go wrong with it. 2. Make the tech(research) trees massive and different. Make each element have different ways that it can be used then other paths. 3. I also like the Immersion Factor...make it real to me and that I have a vested interest in my game
