My brain just broke from reading the thread title.

I am desperately trying to find a reason as to why this thread was needed, instead of posting in the previous, dedicated thread.
[quote who="Murteas" reply="77" id="2682279"] [...] As a software developer though, I have to say that it must be painful for some of your employees to see you sift through the forums and then schedule a 'design meeting" - "Oh no!!!!! Brad is coming with more ideas from those stinking forumites - Can someone please crash the forum!!!!!!" [...] [/quote]And suddenly, all the forums go boom

[quote who="Frogboy" reply="69" id="2682344"]This was my check-in this afternoon of what I did in the past 24 hours to give you an idea of how fast progress can be.

Q: Let's talk mounts. What about mounts? Q: What about the bears? Q: Elemental bears? Frost bears, flame bears, etc, etc. Q: Anything at all to be said on an expansion?
Can we order this through Impulse? I guess I could fire up Impulse and check. But I'm lazy.

Oh, man. This is just disturbing.
As far as I know, the only way to get the Collector's Edition is straight from Stardock. Someone correct me if I'm wrong. :)
Am I the only one that reacted to the fact that some of these resource points were more or less larger than entire, supposedly well-developed, cities? :p [quote who="Anomander" reply="25" id="2681861"]I still think adding Forts, Keeps and Watchtowers would help flesh out border controls.[/quote]A long-standing suggestion, I agree with Anomander. I still want to see "Military Starbases" in the form of Forts/Watchtowers, that provide line of sight, zone of control/small influenc
[quote who="Andorfiend" reply="71" id="2681670"] [...] Incidently I will say you can go to far the other way. Dwarf Fortress for example looks really interesting to me, but I am simply not willing to invest the personal time I would need to be able to even understand what the screen is showing me behind those non-representational ASCI graphics. And that's speakng as a man who played hundreds of hours on old school ASCI games like Moria and Ancien

I'm going to confess here and say that I actually like to give myself a bit of an edge, although complete godmode would feel extremely pointless. I suppose I just like the feeling of my character being at least a little bit better than everyone else. But to answer the question; I doubt that you will be able to do this on Sovereign creation, but you will likely be able to do it either in the workshop, or by simply modding one of the .xml files. It's very easy.

Resist is right. The beta is not a demo - to think to use it as such is really, really dumb. It's a beta. It's not even supposed to be fun. The first parts of the beta were downright agonizing. Edit: But to answer your question, no .

[quote who="Twohawks" reply="4" id="2680121"]hmm either they need to remove the earth shard requirement (as it was in 3) or make sure that when we play maps with islands/multiple continents we always have a beach, earth shard or both.[/quote]As I see it, we simply need more ways to get off the island. I'd dislike a rule of "An island always has a beach" - but having Raise/Lower land requiring an Earth Shard also makes total sense to me.

This makes me glad, so very glad, that I actually bought The Witcher in the first place, when it was released. This pretty much indebts me to aquire The Witcher 2 when it is released. Not because it's awesome. But because obviously, CD Projekt is. [quote who="the_hunger" reply="32" id="2675075"]I agree. If you want "dark fantasy," I HIGHLY recommend Baldur's Gate 2 (plus Throne of Bhaal expansion). It's the game that Dragon Age aspired to be. The problem w
As long as it supports all the newer, basic resolutions, I couldn't give a rat's arse whether or not it has "HD graphics". The difference in graphics between some older games and some newer games are negligible at best. Sure, it's noticeable, but it doesn't excuse the relative increase in costs and the subsequent cutbacks in story and gameplay. Edit: Dear god in heaven, T
