[quote who="Tirawa" reply="34" id="3494711"] Will the optimizations to the engine for the 2015 game be back-ported to LH? [/quote] Some of the big optimizations were only possible due to changes in the game design, so I don't know how many changes could be backported, unfortunately :( [quote who="Tirawa" reply="34" id="3494711"] I am thinking of joining the founders tonight. [/quote] Do it!!!! One of us! One of us! &
[quote who="Lord Reliant" reply="22" id="3481200"] So, now the Master has become the Apprentice. Congrats on the promotion, Scott. Crack that whip! [/quote] Haha I tried the 'Producer' thing and it wasn't for me (ie. I sucked at it)...nowdays my business card reads "Mad Scientist". Make of that what you will :) Seriously though, I can't wait to start talking all things E2015. Too much awesome stuff to show off!
* looks around, decides it's safe * Lets just say that (spoilers) E2015 is a Video Game. Its Coming out eventually - very possibly in 2015 - made by Stardock to be played by you and anyone that purchases it. You're welcome ;)

Wow, this is amazing! Great work Parrot (and thanks for enjoying the game enough to put this time into it)! :D
We'll have to make sure to get a shot from the Breaking Bad party on Sunday ;)

Yeah, gonna miss her a lot :( We both started at Stardock when it was just Brad, Angie, Kris, and Ian. How far we've come... Luckily she knows the code to get in the office...I hope to see many baby visits and baked goodies in the future :)
Heavenfall: Don't knock it 'till you're pumping out assets in 1/100th the time as rigged and animated 3d models ;) Sean: lol
Chibiados: It's tons of fun...you should pick it back up! Though I'll admit theres little to no application for it in modern game development :( Perhaps for making small icons, or determining the most important features that make a character read properly. I was a Nintendo kid, so I love the stuff :)
Lord Reliant: +10 Karma for you! Heavenfall: -50000 Karma..sorry :)
I would love to :) Unfortunately I've moved onto other projects. Perhaps I can jump back on around April 1-ish to slip something good in ;)
With Fallen Enchantress cooling the sting that was 'War of Magic', I'd like to look back on one of the things I enjoyed most from the original Elemental: the 'retro
Thanks man :) Much appreciated!!!!
Note that the Pause|Break key will pause the game. I highly suggest using it for some awesome spell effect screenshots :)
Yeah, those tutorials were made pre-Beta 1 :( Beta 4 will get/need fresh ones.
Hi Timothy! As far a I know, the game will be download only, but I'll try and see if a burn-to-disc option is going to be made available. Also, no primaries I'm afraid :( I'll get someone more knowledgable to come in and anwer your other questions (it's a long weekend for Memorial Day, so thanks for your patience, and thanks for your interest in the game!).
*Bump* Yeah, great vid! Thanks for posting! :D
I'm really happy with how this one turned out :) Lots of help on the effects from Chris Freespace who helped make the Sins trailer look so jaw-dropping. Glad you guys dig it!
lolol He has a point :)
Per-design, deforestation is now free and placing a building on a forest tile will automatically raze it. I don't believe re-adding forest on an unused razed tile is on the to-do list.
Changed the title to "Resolved" after it prompted an internal discussion and we came to the same realization as you in your edit. You'd be surprised how many times design changes go unnoticed by all but the folks that actually implement the change :)
I'm a huge fan of 'let's play' videos! Can't wait to see more! :)
Noted. EDIT: ...And fixed [e digicons]|-)[/e]
