I've finally played a game for a few hundred turns., First off It's beautiful nice and lots of fun. I'm playing on an old single core machine with 2 gig ram and 512 megs of video ram and it's smooth. I'm really starting to feel like I'm playing a better version of MOM. Almost. Things that really bug me, I'm writing them since this is Beta and maybe something can be done about them, re
Solam
I'm not programing geek but MOM hafd boats? right? So did Warcraft 2? Those games are similar to this game? right? Why is it hard now and it was possible before? I don't get it,. Maybe somebody can explain it to me? It's like random maps. In WOM you could not get random maps but in MOM you could... Very coofused.
I do not like MP, To restricted. Being a father of three just finding time to play alone is difficult. I can't even imagine playing with friends. I prefer a game with lots of depth and lots of different options. MP is for Games like Halo and Chess. [e digicons]}:)[/e] Galciv was wonderful and the AI was up to par. I can only hope that the AI for this game will be the same or better
davidabc66 thnaks a bunch for the information much appreciated. There is also the fact that in tactival battles seem to always have the same terrain. I hope tis is just a beta thing. Pretty unremakable a thing if it's intended. This game does need a lot of work. But it sure has a firm base.
All great suggestions. I second. The battlfield is to small and heroes I feel gain levels way to fast. Each battle they gain a level. It's overpowered.
I'm enjoying this Beta immensely, it's almost like playing MOM. Almost but not quite... I have my main channeler Jadzia, . Does one battle against bears levels to level 2. Jadzia goes into second battle fights bandits, level 3 Jadzia battles a green monster, Level 4 And so on and so forth. One battle boom a level. That's way to fast. I can't seem to make her research new spells
I agree with the OP I want my map to be dynamic. Once you go through the map and kill the monsters nothing ever happens again? sounds boring to me, I do not know the best way to implement this wether with repawns or with an Event, but you need things to happen now and again, and I do not mean once or twice either during a game. Your territory must be patroled and maintained otherwise what is the point of having an army. Just send everybody to the front. no danger
Is there a way to do it or are we stuck with the default names? Thanks
Now I've played for about 2 hours and Nothing is really happening. IS there a place where I can see how people start there games? I'm building things in my cities but the research I've only learned restoration it takes like 50 turns just to learn mining. I must be doing something wrong.
After playing the demo Thursday and loving it I am finally sitting down now for the first time to play a game. It's really nice and fun. My hireling was defeated in battle and lost an eye this is way way way out there. My questions is this now that everybody is wonded I do not know what to do. I mean my heroes and main channeler are in town resting, I am building structures in my town, but my research is very very slow and I do not seem to be able to learn new spell
I only played the Tutorial yesterday and boy what A difference from the first game. I'm in love., Can't wait for 4pm so I can play some more!!
I have not been on this site in so long, since I've been so down with elemental. Everybody I am home... they call this high speed internet... my @ss C'mon
So does this mean I can now played windowed on a multiple screen configuration? I could not before. My screen was always two big and getting on the second screen.
So are we gonna get this beta before Halloween? I'm taking bets...
I've been away sick for the last 6 or 7 months. I've just updated Elemental and now when I play I am so very lost. Is there a recent guide somebody can point me to or just some pointers on what I should do first when playing this game... I seem to be walking around not knowing what to do.,... Thanks
I for one prefer single player. I do not have the availibily to play multiplayer.
There are many ways to "cheat", I guess we all have our own way of enjoying the game. I like to just let everything go to hell and see what happens. A bit like playing nhl 95 and taking the nordiques to the stanley cup. man that team really sucked :-) I choose the basic setting and then whatever happens never reload never re do something. The only reason I save the game at all is in case of a game cras
That's always a possibility. I remember trying that option once creating a game with alliances already made. However I do not remember if I could break them or not. Sorry
Gee I love these little arguments.... Seems to me that when these things are discussed we have to take a lot into the speculation area... One thing came to mind when colonizing Australia came to mind... could the crust support all the mass of the people you want to cram in there? About creating a dyson sphere.. I wonder why somebody would say it will NEVER happen... I never liked absolute, we've heard so many in the co
I've been playing this game for years and still I have never had this event happening to me. Arrgg....
If I remember correctly it's in the diplomatic window where you would ask for an allicance. Mid top right. You should have break alliance as an optiion. It's been a while so I might be wrong but I think it's there.
It happened to me tonight with summoned creatures. I cannot really give you a save because I cannot save during a battle.
Thank you for the information it's much appreciated. I hope the AI gets better in time. If it's all that easy it will be boring fast.
I'm a galciv 2 vet and when I start a game TOA it's so simple I know what to build and where I am going. This game as me so lost. True I've only played a couple of games... but still I'm playing a normal level game with three opponants I'm at turn 123 and I have yet to see an oppenent. I'm reasearching anything that looks intresting because I have noidea what I really need. I read a few stickies and they say at the begining running around with onl
