[quote who="Gwenio1" reply="12" id="2797901"] I do have not played MoM, I do not spam cities, and I am not one of those complaning against the AI spamming cities. I do dislike that by spamming cities one gains an advantage with no trade off. I do expect higher level AI to have a method to building cities other than "anywhere there is an unclaimed resource", especially if city spam has been properly balanced so that there is a trade off involved so spamming is not univers

[quote who="JSJ101" reply="10" id="2797882"] Ignoring the juvenile and insulting tone of this post for a moment, I disagree with most of what you say here. What exactly makes you think that you are speaking for the majority here?[/quote] So you disagree that they have a amazing game that has some very nice features that they are probably going to do away with because some very vocal people are gripping. How the programmers haven't figured out how to use these

[quote who="Gwenio1" reply="8" id="2797866"] It does, but coming up with enough cheats to not be repeditve and having them randomly occur in a way that does not look like cheating would be a lot of work. The power to give the AI aid beyond simple econ / unit buffs are better left to map makers to implement via an event system, rather than making the engine do it.

[quote who="Gwenio1" reply="5" id="2797840"] It is a strategy game, which means your are to try and find the best and most effective way to play. If the best way to play is the easiest to come up with and implement, then there is no strategy involved. If there is no strategy involved in a strategy game, then what is the point in playing it?

Maybe I should make myself plain. Yes. I want the programmers to write a hundred thousand lines of god like code that make the computer play better than me. But, I will be happy with a thousand line twist that has me smiling. Settling for a dozen little advantages for the AI can be a lot of achievable fun. I don't demand rewriting the way the game works. Try to think of simple easy things they can do within the present frame work. City bui

So what everyone is complaining about is their lack of willpower and selfcontrol? They want it hard wired into the game that they have to play the perfect way that is not fun enough for them to play on their own? Do I have this right? If they won't play it now they won't like being forced to. In this complex a game the player will always have over whelming advantages. The programing ability you want does not exist. So cheating and simplifying the game for the AI i

Terrible Truth in WOM Ideas Elemental Forums

Let me tell you a terrible truth you learn with age. You look around and great things you take for granted are suddenly gone and you can't get them back. You have a core group of complainers that edge out those that don't agree and are not willing to spend their time to be heard. Don't let them get you disgusted with what you have accomplished. Modding for those that like what you already have would be nice before you bow to those that have no life but to bend you to

Reply to re poll: Would you pre-order on-line a Master of Magic 2? in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

If you are serious then you need to use your reputation to get other sites to broaden awareness. The first sites that comes to mind.... http://www.the-underdogs.org/ http://www.classicgaming.com/ In General just Google "Master of Magic" and contact the live ones to put up a query and link on thier MOM page and see if they will feture the question on thier opening page for a month or two.

The version is whatever I bought in the bargin bin. I will update later. Just trying to get the feel now. My first 6 games were so bad I was ready to give up on it when I decided to check out the forum. Helped alot. I think I will enjoy this bug for awhile. I kinda like the wicked power of watching the others struggle as my economic slaves. Never having any real chance against my God like control over their civilation. LOL
