Reply to Steam is like crack in PC Gaming Elemental Forums

[quote who="bodhi2010" reply="30" id="3285079"]If you think Steam is good, try Greenmangaming.. [/quote] I did, actually, but the problem is that I don't believe it will quite survive the competetion like Steam. And a bankrupt digital distribution platform is trouble for those who own the games.

What? Introversion - Complete Crack? With Defcon and Uplink and Everything? Gimme! Oh, and Grimrock there, for just 2.50... Ow well, they bled me dry this time. I shiver upon the thought that in a month... there will be the dreaded X-Must Sale!

Reply to Registry in Personal Computing Elemental Forums

Registry is just a collection of configurations for your computer. Configurations cannot be automagically "fixed", because no automatic tool can guess how do you want your applications to behave. Sure, there are rules that can determine and tidy up leftovers after bad uninstall scripts, but a runaway automatic process can screw your configuration real good due to all kinds of bugs and oversights of its creators.

Reply to The Walking dead... in Movies & TV & Books Elemental Forums

I have just finished the fifth episode, and it was okay-to-good. The characters and dialogues are well written, because you care, the story is what you would expect, but solid, the gameplay is minimal, consoleish and very restricted (hammering the "A" button being a staple), and the choices are mostly illusionary. It's more a digitized gamebook (if you shoot, turn to page 56, if you run, turn to 89) than a full-fledged game. It made me think about the shift of the main hero consis

Reply to A list of UI suggestions in FE Wishlists Elemental Forums

What I find atrociously horrible is the unit selection - which unit is selected when, it should be clearly visible, and the mechanics consistent. Too often, after finishing some action, my hero dashes alone at the enemy, leaving the army behind. Moreover, if unit path takes multiple turns to finish, the range per turn should be visible - ffs, even games like HOMM 3 had that.

Let's be positive, let's view it as a transcendental experience that relieves us of corrupting, worldly currency in exchange for a subtle, inspiring quasi-experience that actually never happened... a machine for peeking into the non-existent, if you will... Crap, I just bought Age of Empires III collection just because it was cheap, even though I slammed it to be mainstream dumb cripple of a strategy... I need help!

Reply to FE not displaying properly at 1920x1080 on TV in FE Support Elemental Forums

I strongly recommend using HDMI, DVI or DisplayPort (depending on your gfx card and TV capabilities - HDMI should be possible). When you use VGA cable, there are two conversions - first, the digital image is converted to analog signal (with loss of quality) which is transferred by the VGA cable, and in the TV, it's converted again back from analog to digital, with another loss of quality. The effect is a blur, and problems like you experience. HDMI cable transfers digital signal

Strange weapon animations in Fallen Enchantress Elemental Forums

Some of them are really queer, like that super slow rotating cut with a sword. But the worst must be the spear. Spears are thrusting weapon and their most dangerous part is the tip. You use them to thrust, to impale or run through your opponents, not to "smack" them over the head with the shaft. It's true that the shaft can be used also in combinations, but the main attack with a spear should always be the thrust.

Please change the name of the thread, because there is absolutely no problem with the resolution in general. Try to find drivers for your TV, but otherwise be prepared there won't be a fix. Many televisions do not have the full functionality of computer monitors. Also, what type of connection do you use? HDMI, displayport, or DVI? Please don't say analog VGA cable...

I have found out what movie is featured in the game, it's "To kill a mocking bird", and it seems there is all 128 minutes of it in the game. Insane.

Reply to City militia equipment in Fallen Enchantress Elemental Forums

By the way, militia is most definitely bugged. I had an umberdoth attacking my city with sov+3 units, battle overview said, I will have 6 units (4 of my army + 2 militia) but the militia did not show up.

Reply to City militia equipment in Fallen Enchantress Elemental Forums

[quote who="Humility" reply="9" id="3281392"] Nah, I don't think militia are weakness compared to regular, they are fighting for thier home, so they should be stronger than regular units...[/quote] Historically, militia was usually weaker especially when morale was concerned, because they were not professional, battle hardened soldiers, but locals hastily armed to defend their homes. Morale was very important in any kind of battle (shame it's not simulated in FE). </

The Darkness I and II in PC Gaming Elemental Forums

I had a chance to play the second game first, and it seemed to me like a pretty, but shallow shooter with a horror aspect that did not really work. When I saw the first game in PS3 bargain bin, I bought it out of curiosity. I was surprised how different this game plays and looks. It's much slower, more atmospheric, the constant shooting that kills the suspense in modern games is not there. But I was totally shocked by a scene when my char came to celebrate birthday w

Reply to [1.0.2] libcurl.dll missing in FE Support Elemental Forums

I would be wary to just "download the file from Internet", since there are a lot of infected ones. It's the easiest way to make a trojan horse. Better install from original sources. http://pcsupport.about.com/od/findtheproblem/qt/dll-download.htm In fact it is possible that an antivirus quarantined the file because it was considered infected. It's also possible that Fallen

Reply to This game has massive potential in Fallen Enchantress Elemental Forums

"Massive potential" - I keep hearing this expression since Elemental:WOM release. It's usually related to games that people desperately wanted to love, but for various reasons, it was not possible. Just like with Tristan and Isolde.
