If stardock can make the game, like this thread = win. In Civ4 (and in general), all the factions felt the same, they had ONE unique unit (and one building) and it was usually obsolete pretty quickly. Would I rather see them different because of who they were, or what they were... One benifits the indavidualist, the other benifits the historians. One benifits replay value, the other benifits a richer single experince. Do I get expe

[quote who="SpardaSon21" reply="40" id="2605715"]Seriously, I thought everyone knew the less armor females wear the better their armor class is.[/quote] Actually, your wrong. The armour quality is determined by how sexually attractive the female is. Make up can add over 25% of a female's armour! For males the system works a bit differently. Specifically males gain armour based on the size of their muscles (they don't have to be visable - I.e. look at the human m

Reply to More discussion of Factions and Races (long) in Elemental Dev Journals Sins Forums

So, Im still wondering what art would be needed to expand the races/factons. Are we talking styles of armour/weapons/slight body type diffrences becasue your concept art was basically the same but thin/fat - tall/short - sexy/still would. Lots/of/Slashes. Mods are important to me, but its important to get the base game amazing without them, clearly the numerical code option is the best. No wait... The one with the expanded factions - although I think it will be

Reply to Rethinking factions… in Elemental Dev Journals Sins Forums

Im readin all yo comments but Im still confused! People sound like they are talking about factions when they say races and that they want many factions or many races and all of them to be well devloped. Do people mean like Gal civ where factions equal races or like in Civ where factions are 'subraces'? Or do they mean races as in dragonkin and lizardmen? ??? &nb

Reply to Rethinking factions… in Elemental Dev Journals Sins Forums

Maybe Im just stupid but I like simple things. I get confused if there are different races that look similar (I never really understood human inter-race conflict much). The great thing about a different race is trying to figure out how you could have sex with it. Brad clearly loves this aspect also (children). Factions are groups of people aligned with similar viewpoints - like furries. The furry faction is full of a wide range of memebers of 'various' races but mostly h

I use maxscript for exporting meshes from max in text and it looks fine in notepad (using just \n special char in the text stream. What do you use?).

3 questions Does it support text and binary? Does it scale the position of points with the geometery modifcations? And what do you mean by "For some reason notepad don't recoignise the new lines in the exported mesh"?

[quote]Thats a loaded question.... What do you want the spells to do?[/quote] Who knows, how do you edit spells bascailly. Do they have limitations in, say, the number of things you can do with them or is it just like calling a script (and you can do anything you want from there) or more like there is a limited selection of "spell effectors" which can be strung together for complicated spells but can't be extended?

Reply to Pirating/emulators, and all that good stuff. in PC Gaming Sins Forums

I've always thought pirates are made up from 3 kinds of people. Legiters Habiteers Freeloaders Legiters have a valid concern (DRM stops them playing, they already own the game but the disk broke, see if it works on the computer). They will buy if they can but they hate to waste money and turn to piracy to fix things because the publisher didn't. Lan partys of 10+ people where you need a disk each is also a 'valid' concern in my opinion but publis

This might be a good time to learn snake handling. Programming is the thing I'm least terrible at. I've been heavily into Maxscript atm to create a tool for SoaSE so its not going to be fun to switch syntaxs. Also, lLike Vordrak said, what about spells?

How much can a map be randomised? Can maps be procedureally created in real time while the game is actually being played? Can diffrent maps be used at the same time - say 2 maps up and down like Afterlife or an alternate world where things are different but you can only play on one map at a time?

Addiction is a complicated subject because people will say they are 'addicted' and it ruined thier lives thus having a strong emotional connection and being the worst place for useful or accurate information. Chemical depenance is not the same thing as what people call addition to objects. Specifically the OBJECT did not cause the phsycological desire, your mind did. Theres a reason for this but its not the objects fault, its your minds fault. Its like a lactose intolerance, you shoul

As you said it was a blanket statement aimed at the principle of the idea. I still think high prices are just lazy development because you know SOMEONE will pay. The real skill is to get it low enough to get the highest number/vs cost ratio and thus maximum profitz! But its principle and not real world so what do I know. Back to the original subject, there is no reason to get the Cestial mount unless your an alt-a-holic (since its account wide) or you REALLY love flying sparkly horses

"can the 'free' players still have fun?" - This is very important. This is the core of my argument. If they go into PvP with mr Million dollar kill all item (or even a +10% that you can only get through money or excessive time) they WONT be having fun! See? Then they arn't having fun and the my question flips to a negative and that means its NOT okay. It was a conditional statement. And Turbine tried the same thing? With DDO? I didn't see anything in the shop you can't

Even if an item costs a million can the 'free' players still have fun? Do they still have options to buy things which are actually within thier budget? If so whats the problem? I can't afford a boat, maybe you can. However, just because I can't afford a boat that dosn't mean I can't have any fun in my life. It just means upper-class asshats and criminals get to have boats (this is a joke for those without ranks in the Sense Joke skill). Also lets

[quote who="Nesrie" reply="16" id="2598045"]Perhaps you should follow your own advice? If people think 25 dollars is too much money for a mount, who are you to tell them they are wrong and don't have fun? I don't play WoW but I have played MMO's, I wouldn't give turbine 20 bucks for a mounnt either, and I wouldn't do it for Blizzard if I were playing. Also, 25 for a mount would be rather steep even for a F2P which WoW certainly is not.[/quote] If someone thin
