I have two UI change request - pretty please: On the left side you list cities; there is a +/- box you can click to display not display them. It would be super nice if there was a third option to show only idle (Z) cities. Pretty please ? A method to trade and use items; either the ability to use items in the trade menu or maybe add an equipment button next to trade/shop so you can switch back to the equipment gui and then use the item ? &

Generally speaking steam is my first choice for a digital game (even if it cost more; though I will buy from another vendor if they provide a steam key). My only real complaint about steam is that they are hard to reach if there is an issue. They do respond to email (usually a couple of days later) but generally speaking I've had no real issue with steam itself. - This is in contrast to other vendor on line 'stuff' (the two that have given me the most problem are g

This is not generic to all "abandoned workshop" quests; but on this map this one particular quest everytime I enter the game crashes. The text Deal with Skaths comes up (note that during this game I have successfully already completed a very similar quest); when I select deal with skaths; it brings on the skaths and then crashes. I have a save; I've tried this 10 times with same results. If someone at stardock wants the save drop a note.

Yea at first I thought it never showed up (since others have reported this bug); then i thought it might be stacked; then i finally discovered what happened; it placed it in the army even though there were no free slots. [quote who="Martimus" reply="3" id="3260186"]I won a pioneer in a quest, but it never showed up. I think that quest is bugged.[/quote]

I'm mixed; several of the reviews suggest the person had not spent much time playing but there is at least one detail middle score (5 or 6) that seems well thought out. Anyways not everyone likes everything and the internet allows for a crazy sort of approach. I've already express my views on this game so no need to repeat; but in summary it certainly is not a 0 or 1; and it is certainly not a 9 or 10; and quite frankly very few games (almost none) are 0/1 or 9/10.

Game of the year? Naw. The below is my opinion based on the games I have played past and present. While I would label torchlight 2 the bargin of the year (it was $20 new; $15 for many); I would not label it the game of the year. For me it lacked depth and personalty. While an older game I felt titan quest (plus expansion) had far better class development and was much more interesting. Warlock Master of arcane was fun for a game or two but has many flaws and lack of dept

These threads are great; they pop up where i've already been. Bleh. I don't feel bad about the thread; I mean like I've done all the quest and killed everything but the two groups of soldiers looking for them (as an indication of how many times I cross the map looking for them I have now built all buildings and completed all research for the scenario while looking for them).

I think the issue is specific to him; I downloaded all three 3GB starting around 7:00 or 7:30PM EST. The download rate was pretty quick using firefox 16 over comcast. The game installed just fine and dandy. Does SDC indicate the low level error when it has an issue (is it having problems with the connection dropping; being reset; or writing to the disk; or other?). Do you have a firewall that could time out the connection or a proxy that could have issues ? Can you get the IP of the server an

I'm personally a sp (single player) sort of person and would rather have a glorious sp game than a game that is shabby sp and mp. I much rather have long rpg'ish 'scenarios' than mp and kind of hope the next expansion is additional complexity to the game; includes the ability to use books in the trade screen (can't have a post without that comment :) ) and a very long 'scenario' with lots of complex rpg stuff :)

Note that older browser will have problem downloading the game due to it being larger than 2GB (int vs long long). I've used firefox 16 and have used chrome. Also with a game this large if you have any sort of memory issue (parity errors) it is likely to cause issues due to more memory being touched (though to be honest here I'm more familiar with how linux manages i/o buffers than windows).

Its a fact I could; I don't but I could.... [quote who="alaknebs" reply="11" id="3257359"] Quoting you28, reply 9It is true with these box games I could give the game to a friend and just play the version off steam (the ones I have have cd checks when using the box version). don't tell everyone or they might send the lawyers around.[/quote]

Well steam supports the ability to register third party keys (not 100% sure how this work but I have several games I purchase from other companies or in box forms that are not steam-works games but i can still (optionally) register the key on steam. It is true with these box games I could give the game to a friend and just play the version off steam (the ones I have have cd checks when using the box version). Anyways If I could register FE on steam I would so I didn't have to download 3+G

I always play campaign. I like a good story. The one in AOW2/AOW:SM were long but not that great; some of the user addons are fantastic (though in all honesty i stopped playing AOW2/AOW:SM 3 or 4 years ago; graphics became too dated). Anyways not to distract I hope Elemental has a great campaign. Debating if I should download now (I played the betas up to 992); or wait a bit and hope they fix some of the bugs; something about my play style seems to bring out the worse in games and I ran into
