Reply to 1.08 - MULTIPLAYER (can we have a new Poll Plz) !!! in War of Magic Elemental Forums

[quote who="lord ebonstone" reply="10" id="2762573"] Quoting solidsmooky, reply 7what else do you have to lose? Time to actually fix the game, time to re-design the game, time from throwing netcode and all kinds of other crap on top of code that doesn't work particularly well as-is, the time required to deal with the massive chance for a deluge of bugs and side-effects (yes, in single player too) from a hasty implementation.

I agree with this post why Mom? Why not Dad instead. I'm tired of fathers not getting any love.

Reply to What are the best TB Fantasy RPG/RTSs out there? in War of Magic Elemental Forums

[quote who="Khardis" reply="198" id="2760591"]Agreeing with a lot here, FFH2 is a GREAT fantasy TBS. The amount of difference between the factions (I fancy the vampire lords or the ashen empire, or whatsitsname was (sorcerer lords out to bring hell on earth). It is a while since I played it, but I played it a lot for a while. A friend of mine broke his CIV IV dvd so he couldn't play it anymore - on purpose, so he wouldn't loose his job. he was bitten that bad. Kings of Dragon

Reply to where is the next patch? in War of Magic Elemental Forums

[quote who="James009D" reply="5" id="2762174"] Quoting solidsmooky, reply 3There are no more patches. They've abandoned the game to play Halo:Reach. That's not out for ten more days. Stardock didn't have time to sign up for the beta either. We're guaranteed at least one more patch.[/quote] They got advanced copies for being such nice people :D

Reply to Labor Day notes in Elemental Dev Journals Elemental Forums

[quote who="nobalkain" reply="231" id="2758544"] Quoting Shurdus, reply 230Great and everything, but where exactly does making the game fun fit in? As it is now, the game is a huge mess where there is nothing to do early on, and dragging the game on becomes a chore. This might not really be your kind of game. The pace of the game is how most of us like it.[/quote] There was a poll and apparently not "most of us" like it.

[quote who="Infernal Lupine" reply="8" id="2758911"]Ever since the release of WOW, its become common place that release day + 1 year is the time to look at the state of a game and review it then after its birthing pains are done and over. Instant review policies of magazines and forums have never adapted to the 2000 era means of production and customer support fixes. They are the ones needing an overhaul and one of the reasons I abandoned subscription based review games nearly a decade ago.<b

I appreciate you taking the time to write this. I know that you are passionate about fixing things and I understand. I also understand that fixing the technical issues are important too. However, it will be hard for me to pick up this game until the 1.1 version comes, the version that fixes the gameplay is available. I can play the game just fine (besides the alt+tab) bug and a few crashes here and there, i'm able to put up with it, but the gameplay as it stands right now isn't compelling or

[quote who="Nesrie" reply="68" id="2756874"][quote who="lord ebonstone" reply="66" id="2756865"] Your flagship sank at retail (and funny to mention the word flagship, considering how much this is like Hellgate London). Don't expect to slowly raise it out of the muck and expect it to proudly sail along with barnacles, seaweed, and patched holes all over the hull. Cover it up, leave it at the bottom, and build a new one. Ideally with real testing this time. [/q
