Reply to Is there a Book 2 in Elemenatal? in Stardock Games Stardock Forums

There WILL be... but not yet apparently. I imagine there will be a good number of books. Stardock's method of countering piracy is to have constant and very solid updates, in this case opting to include entire segments of the campaign with the patches. I'd kill to have 5-10 hours added to more games in future patches (I'm looking at you starcraft 2... making me wait like 2 years for more single player content)

Reply to Elemental - Buggy in Stardock Games Stardock Forums

I have not had elemental crash on me in a long time (though I'll admit I did not play much of the beta after beta 2, but I actually did not have it crash on me much even then. My peers did though, I think my computer is just too awesome) I am a little surprised. Personally I have yet to encounter any bugs that I would not throw into low priority graphical bugs. (they bother me because I'm anal like that, but I do not feel they are a big deal. Con

Reply to am I really that bad at this? in Sins of a Solar Empire Stardock Forums

YES! YOU ARE REALLY BAD! I'm joking. I consider myself pretty good at RTS games, and sometimes I even get by butt kicked. (I'm a sore loser to AI too. Like they take one of my major systems and I rage quit. don't have that problem against human opponents, but those AI players have no sense of humor) Yeah, what the the previous posters said. what difficulty are you playing? As with any RTS, maximizing income v

Reply to An Open Letter to Brad Wardell and the Elemental Dev Team in War of Magic Stardock Forums

I, personally, am happy to see somebody so pleased they were willing to type up such an extensive letter. Its inspiring to see people so motivated. They say that one is 10 times more likely to say something bad to another person than something good. And when one has so much good to say, it means something. I expect the devs will be pleased to read this.

Reply to What does the colored ring mean? in War of Magic Stardock Forums

[quote who="Salizar" reply="4" id="2731256"] Quoting landisaurus, reply 2I was going to say it means I want to marry you. You would seriously propose to me with a ring that was half-blue, half-green? Or one that is even more multi-colored but isn't a complete circle? If it ain't solid gold, you can't afford me [/quote] yeah, I'm kinda cheap like that. Why buy a good metal ring when I can get cheap colored stuff like plastic. The kind of ri

Reply to Disapearing Units in War of Magic Stardock Forums

I have a problem where half my units disappear after a battle. I'm pretty sure they were just dead though. Yeah, I think the auto-stacking can be a little disorienting at first. Obviously if you're aware of the way units stack, and can confirm that's not it please say something. It sounds like that happened in the instance that is not involving the dragon.

Reply to couple questionscouple in War of Magic Stardock Forums

I'm helping move this to the top, just because its a shame to see your question go unanswered. Pretend I'm flaming or something worthy* of bumping a post. I might suggest changing the title to something that is more descriptive or makes more sense. I think if you said "I have a couple questions" or "questions about gameplay" or something like that it would be sooner spotted by those who would help out. the 'questionscouple' thing I believe to

Reply to Will there be a Demo? in War of Magic Stardock Forums

"Screw the people playing the free [demo], if they want updates faster they can buy the full version" is a quote from a developer with whom I currently work. (In response to me saying our free trail version sucked and we should update it to include some of the newer features. In fairness though, it should also be noted that our 'full version' can be played for up to 24 hours before purchasing.)

note to self: create "THIS GAME ROXORZ" thread after the initial 72 hours. Personally, frogboy, I'd be weary of saying "people can [] detract to their hearts content." in reference to something you've got to moderate. Because some hearts require a lot to be content.

Reply to Day 0 Patch, When? Dev ETA? in War of Magic Stardock Forums

Everybody loves the first day of a new game release. If nobody played on the first day, nobody would complain about stuff that breaks and then it wouldn't be fixed until the day after.... So cry away I say. But be aware that problems are going to exist.

Reply to Love this game but will it be ready for prime time in War of Magic Elemental Forums

Prime time? that is like about 6-8 o'clock in the evening right? Yeah, I wouldn't be TOO worried about memory leaks. That being said, there may even still be some after release that will be patch quickly. I'm certain they will have enough leaks patched for release to let the game float. And most stardock titles are sleepers anyway (at least historically)

Reply to CHEATS!!!!! in War of Magic Elemental Forums

I guess key combinations are much easier than constantly string-parsing everything that is typed to see if a cheat is entered. :D I feel like the 'deselect' hotkey should be a feature. >_>; like not a cheat at all since it didn't really DO anything.

Would not some of them instead have no ability to summon tuna, but rather be granted other zoo related spells? "Mass-animal care" perhaps. "Clean water" would be highly useful in a zoo of tuna.

Reply to Random Events? in War of Magic Elemental Forums

I am fairly certain its been more than considered. Just it isn't a very major feature to implement, and I can't imagine it would need much in the way of testing (in comparison to other features) some quest events, if nothing else, can count as random events. Surely we'll see something similar to Galactic Civilization's events as well.

Who has an Android Mobile device 2.1+ in Life, the Universe and Everything Elemental Forums

Hey, I got me the notion to make an Elemental: War of Magic theme'd app for phones with 2.1 or higher. (grammar is intended) I was just curious who here might actually be able to use it. (Very likely going to make it anyway, but I figured I should ask to see how much inherit community support might exist) One of the main things I want to know is if you usually use your phone vertically (where it is taller than it is wide) or hor
