Heroes II was one of my favorite games ever, only toppled by Heroes V! Have the magicsystem changed in any way? Also wonder what changes the Warlocks, Wizards and Necromancers got.

Was slightly tricky to choose but after 5min of considerations between two of'em I made my choice. I only read the popups since 5000 words should be enough. The ones I excluded (from first excluded to last) and why: Til deaths do us part - I'm not sure I like the ability to get unique Firespells from a quest. It also has a lot of conditions. It sounds complex and hard to balance. I like the population sacrifice thou

Reply to Sins Makes GameSpy List of Top 25 PC Games of the 2000’s in PC Gaming Elemental Forums

I meant Homeworld II as that's the only Homeworld I've played. I got to an asteroid cluster where I fought some generic ships that was like medium in everything. Gotted +20% in something after I've killed some of'em I remember. It was indeed 3D and complicated. Too much I say. I remember a discussion on this forum where someone brought up Conquest: Frontier Wars. Was it you? :p I've seen it listed in some list that I think w

[quote who="Draakjacht" reply="20" id="2880065"]Annatar makes a point. What I was just thinking too is that Supreme Commander came out around 2007. That game was a big step up with RTS games. It's sequel was weak, but the original gave you the same scope design that Sins uses (give or take) and I still play it to this day. I feel that it should have been there. Moreso than DoW, which, as I said earlier, doesn't do much more than Starcraft did for RTS games.[/quote] </

Reply to Frog-2009 is looking to stay in Personal Computing Elemental Forums

People, it doesn't MATTER if your rig can "run" a certain game! It's about running it on MAX that's the point! THAT'S why you need to upgrade! I can't understand people who are satisfied with medium graphics lvls in games. I don't want to play them if I can't max them on atleast 40FPS. I've had StarCraft II for two weeks now but getting 5FPS in 1920x1080 on High/Ultra (in the tutorials) doesn't cut it. I want 60FPS nonstop! If yo

[quote quoting="post"] If we stay ahead of schedule then the design is good and we get more time to expand and polish, if we fall behind on the schedule then it's Toby's fault (though seriously it means the design was to ambitious and some things will be cut ).

Reply to 1.1 , last chance failure? in War of Magic Elemental Forums

[quote who="GW Swicord" reply="102" id="2876266"] It should be opt-in, not opt-out, and it definitely makes more sense than this kludge of third-party file hosts and forum posts. I'd happily settle for a new version of Stardock's dear old SmartException, which was only about crash reporting and was opt-in by design because you had to start it manually (or maybe you had to take it out of your Startup folder and then it was opt-in, I forget).[/quote] Ridic

[quote who="kenata" reply="10" id="2876055"] Just to point out the obvious here. Brad wrote an entire novel of back story. While this is not the same as a monster manual, it should give a fairly decent amount of story about the world brad was hoping to create.[/quote] Sure, if you got the book which wasn't included with the game. So it doesn't help. All the monsters, formulas and stuff should be explained in-game like in Age of Mythology .</

Civ 5? SC2? Perhaps not classics, but... Just wow people. SC2 is also a sol
