[quote who="lbgsloan" reply="25" id="2572839"]Modding isn't losing popularity because people are losing interest, people aren't modding because they CAN'T. DRM and Steam often lock down games to the point where modders can't do much with them these days. People would LOVE to mod Dawn of War 2 for example, but it's simply too much hassle and their modding forum has little in the way of interesting projects. Which I don't get. Mods are what keep games alive and popu

[quote who="Orvidos" reply="168" id="2572732"]My earlier idea of 'myrunes' suffered from my naming tendancy to make it sound 'exotic'. It certainly does. It also sounds idiotic.

[quote who="lbgsloan" reply="17" id="2571926"] Anyway I'm guessing EA knew C&C4 was going to bomb before they announced the closure. It wouldn't make sense to close a studio that was still making money. The confusing part is why they would publicly announce that. There's no way in hell any of the developers would put any real effort into their work after knowing you'll be canned after the project ends. It's like EA flat out telling everyone the ga

The great thing about letting th eplayer name their own is that it would simply chnage the string, so all the currnacy, even in trade would be the same to you. It might be different but you would see "Virgins" and they would see "Gems" and another player would just take the default which could be "Rigmarks" - whatever.

Reply to Elemental Player Input: Unit names and quotes in Elemental Dev Journals Sins Forums

Human Mk 4 Oh wait, this isn't GalCiv - dosn't work like that here. The quotes need to be funny and apt, high attack with low speed and a crushing weapon should give "ME CRUSH!!" type quotes. As for unit names they should depend on the evil factor of your faction, lol. So "Worthless Pesants" and "Skull Riders" for one and "Honourable Malita" and "Holy Horses" for the same sytle units would be a nice alternative to the obvioius "Heavy Caval

[quote who="Fhoenix" reply="81" id="2570762"]I second the florens. Not that it would happen. Rigma and gildars both sound wrong to me. Minting your own coins would be wickedly cool, though I doubt developers will have time to implement it in any meaningful way. But if we talk about fiction in the world of elemental, different civilizations should definitely have different coins. It would be really strange if all the warring countries minted exactly the same type of coins. <br

Apple console? lol the iPlay? It costs $2000 and the games cost $150 each. Its features a clean white interface. The controllers only have one stick and one button - thats all you need on a mac. You can upgrade it, by buying a new one. The new one costs more and has less features but is thinner and is a different colour.

Do you know what 'improve' means? Perhas 'progress'? Maybe even just 'change'? Also Steam is competing with many other entitys, not just other digital platforms I buy most of my games for cheaper retail than steam offers anyway. You also forgot to mention Impulses front page isn't very nice with not enough space dedicated to the "new" and "comming soon" etc tabs like steam has (people are lazy, they don't click 'more').
