You do realize being in a corner is the most strategically advantageous place to be? And being in the middle is the very worst starting spot? Of course if you play on a super easy difficulty and just want to expand and turtle then yeah I suppose middle would be best. But the other Kingdoms on any reasonable level of difficulty will be aggravated by sharing borders and directly competing for resources. In other words if you are in t

Well if LH turns out to be anything like Elemental or FE...the update will probably be quite critical. Many have made the difference in the game being playable or unplayable due to crashes. A few months ago when I was last playing FE they were still working on some of the basic gameplay aspects and around 1.3-1.32 area were working on a massive overhaul on the AI. When I first started playing the AI was mostly dumb, and as long as you had

Not exactly... The problem with using a torrent to play the game without steam (Again I just paid for LH) is the updates. Games that update every couple of months or have updates that just fix a few small things here and there...no problem. However, Elemental and FE both had MANY, frequent updates and tended to fix a massive range of bugs and radically alter gameplay. So I feel that I need/want to use the most up to

I already own FE, but not on steam. I can simply go to my Stardock account and get it and its upgrades from the My downloads section. I received an email about FE and being able to buy it for 20$ and decided to do so. At no point during the purchase did I see anything about steam, the transaction was through Stardock and was the very same as all my other purchases. However after purchasing LH and going to my downloads it tells me I have to ad

AI is doing much better. Crashed with a DX error, first time ever. And been crashing about every 20mins to an hour with several different reports. No save game loading issues. Side note, 1.20 causes my quad core CPU to hit 80%, with 1.29 it runs normally at around 30-35% @Willie Sanderson - Yeah god forbid I say such a thing, I mean I actually posted that the game crashes, and ha

I have tried your builds in the past and have had success with them. Also like I said with 1.12 I never crashed once during 50-60 hours of play. So it really has nothing to do with my setup which isnt uncommon, when I read 10 posts about people on this forum running into identical problems with 1.20, as well as hearing the same things from my friends. I can also link about 4-5 reviews about this game talking about the bugs/c

I never asked for a refund, and it isnt what I want. All I want is a game to not crash constantly on every other update. Again I know I'm a major *(&*^ because I would like a game to progress and have fewer bugs and less crashes and feel like it's updating in the right direction. As opposed to yo-yoing back and forth between varying degrees of playability. Again I stated my o

@Scifi Look at the genral tab for this forum...not the bug reports or anything else, just the general. 50 topics, and I counted 28 talking about bugs and crashes. So about half the current topics in GENERAL are about bugs/crashes. Define minority?

@scifi I know and am fine with a company releasing patches after release, I expect a few bugs now a days. I have been playing this game since the 1st week of launch and trying all but maybe 1-2 patches released, every one but 1.12 crashed on me, some it was unplayable crashing every 10-15mins, others maybe every 2-3 hours. I am a computer tech with a clean and fast computer, but I dont have to say it isnt just me, you can ju

You are right, I apologize. It is ok for a company to make a product and release it in an alpha state then drop all support for it, then remake it and have constant bugs and and after months and countless patches still have this level of trouble. They offered a discount for this game if you bought Elemental BECAUSE IT WAS A NOTED FAILURE. Again I loved playing several Stardock games, but even beyond all the bugs and crashes...this game sti

libcurl.dll Error same as above... Really starting to about loose it, played Elemental and ended up paying for an alpha that was abandoned a month after release,.. And now FE which has half worked at best through 5-6 different patches, and this time I feel like I am paying to play a beta. I have enjoyed several Stardock games in the past and I cant comprehend how this is from t

These suggestions are to streamline magic and make it more tactical and useful. Separate Actions and Spellcasting. Make the number of spells cast per turn or battle based on the essence level of the sovereign or Champion. Allow champions to be imbued to multiple levels. Spells: Create a Direct Damage, Point Blank Area of Effect, and Wall type spell for each Element. Give spells researchable levels. Create spells to buff town

Fine as they are, but was thinking it'd be neat to see them open and close, and be a bit more unstable. That would give a random factor to their use. Talking about stop light kinda timing, not minutes. Also as it's a type of thing that slowly opens and closes, the more open, the faster travel through it. If it's barely forming, takes awhile...100% open - Beam me up Scotty 8-) Would be fun to chase down retreating players and they get the red light right as they are about to reach it.

People somehow miss the point that the game is over 1v1 when when all your fleet and all his fleet battle it out and one is crushed to dust. The AI seems to account for research levels as well as several other hidden factors so far as running, but if the game ends when/if he looses...but yeah running and getting a few ships taken will wear him down. So question is... Wear down or game over, which is it? I dont know how to make him fight save for chasing him d

Just wanted to let people know I've had the suddenly cant scroll up and to the left with my mouse bug as well. After a restart it worked fine. /shrug. Also there seems to be a memory leak of some kind, I played 5-10 player games in 1.02 with no issue, in 1.03 it crawls after an hour or two. After a restart ok again for a bit... And finally, in a game 10 player unlocked, random, 5 Unfair, 4 Hard and me 8-) I had three AI bordering me in the corner, orange to

I hear people saying how they beat the AI on Unfair and it was easy all the AI does is retreat...and also stuff like "A friend of mine played 2v2 against 2 Unfair and we won - was cake" Well yeah. There is an option for oh I dont know... Huge 102 planets, 10 Players, for some fun say 5 Unfair and 4 Hard? FFA/Unlocked Teams....random?
