[quote who="mastroego" reply="146" id="2751145"] Well no luck there either. MoM crashes all the time, even with the GoG installer. Completely unplayable. Now, at 23,30 hours I can either go to sleep or start ANOTHER quest to get a game I just purchased in proper shape. No luck this month, it seems. No matter how much I spend, 60$ or 6$, same result: go find another game. Or maybe another hobby. Or buy a console. Sorry for the rant... it'l

[quote who="chautemoc" reply="93" id="2749042"]Awesome stuff. I have a couple of suggestions: ability to hide the entire UI/HUD for clean screenshots/videos, and also when you take another pass at the UI as you've mentioned, perhaps make it more like the old UI -- the current one is nice and efficient but not very attractive. The old one is gorgeous. Same goes for tactical battles. To be clear, I mean consider making it look like the old one, but be more functional, effective, etc. like the c

[quote who="Blue_Steel" reply="120" id="2747657"] Another option is the lastest from Stardock. "Elemental" I've yet to get it but i will eventually... it is a turn based game that supports up to 16 players from what i've read.

[quote who="charon2112" reply="113" id="2745149"] Quoting solidsmooky, reply 112I hope this big september update comes before the 21st or its Game Over, Bradley. We all know it. Is there any particular reason why we all can't play Elemental AND Civ V? I fully intend to. I kind of hope Civ V has huge bugs on release, to see if it effects reviews...I'm thinking it won't. And yet, Stardock is crucified for them.[/quote] How can you play an ad

[quote who="_PawelS_" reply="90" id="2745909"]The official site states that they will be available "for digital distribution services".

Then came MAUDE or MOM as some like to call her. ) Best civilizationlike fatasy strategy game to date.

[quote who="blitz1024" reply="25" id="2742537"]@solidsmooky Start by playing around a bit, definately read the forum guides on the race you choose to play, those help to get you a feel of what kind of strengths and weaknesses your race have. You won't be wow'd by it's graphics, but you will definately enjoy it if you like deep strategy games.[/quote] Can I learn the ropes myself by playing singleplayer?

Unfortunately, Elemental only has until Civ 5's release to fix itself. Once Civ 5 comes it's a wrap. We all know this. Even the most fanboyest fanboy knows it deep in their tiny lil fanboy heart.
