[quote who="Bashemgud" reply="9" id="2739935"]Agree ! People need to play more before judging it too harshly ^^ Very nice, can only get better.[/quote] I suspect they are playing a bit - can't please all the folks all the time and this IS a bit rough round the edges just now. However, I'm with the OP - loving it so far and looking forward to seeing it develop even more in the months / years ahead.

Not sure the strategy has changed - but retailers have odd internal distribution patterns.
[quote who="lordkosc" reply="3" id="2739735"]no email notification or anything like that... it was just setting on the front porch, not sure if it was fedex, ups, or the usps who delivered it, bastids didn't even ring the bell![/quote] heh - thanks for that. Will start watching the mail mid next week then - long way to Oz [e digicons]|-)[/e]
[quote who="Demiansky" reply="12" id="2739380"]If only Stardock had actually made a sequal to Master of Magic rather than dart off into uncharted territory. I think ELemental would be in much better shape if they had stuck to more of the core elements of the classic.[/quote] Disagree 100%. I already have MoM - don't need another one.
[quote who="yaromir" reply="29" id="2739614"]First, let me say that the release is a pretty good one (and I am one of those who has single digit FPS over cities) A brand new engine, a brand new game, and overall it went smoother than say HOI3 (yes a Paradox fan too). Here is my condensed list: 1. Create rollovers everywhere. If I hover over a weapon in research menu, I want to see its stats.<br
Loving the game already, even with the odd crash. Have great hopes it gets even better in the future.
[quote who="lordkosc" reply="1" id="2739691"]mine arrived today, in perfect condition ! the dragon is awesome!!!!!1!one!!!1 [/quote] Did they notify you that they had shipped it, or did it just turn up? Thanks
No word on the Limited box shipping to me yet. Has anyone else heard anything? Just wondering when they will get mailed out. Bought mine from the Impulse store (download game + Limited Box). Cheers
Oddly enough - auto battle won it for me. I was getting caned by the aoe but won with auto - go figure.
When I use food in the final battle of the campaign the game crashes - done it twice in a row now - updated to latest patch (1.06xx).
Yes - updated OK this time - thanks.
[quote who="Yarlen" reply="16" id="2737039"]Try pausing the download, then click resume. That sometimes jump starts it. For those of you in Australia, there's two servers down under in Perth and Sydney. However, it's possible that the data is still syncing across the network.[/quote] Tried this - not working still. In Oz as well.
Playing my first Campaign game, 3 characters hit Level 2 and it told me to choose stats to upgrade. The cursor was an odd travel cursor, not a selection one, and I was unable to choose most stats. When it did let me select one I could not choose the minus (-) option to cancel and pick something else. When I eventually did 'choose' the stats the cursor returned to normal. [edit] Never mind - was just that only a very small part of the cursor was active - sort
