Reply to The problem with Dynasties (v1.05) in War of Magic Elemental Forums

I disagree that sons and daughters shouldn't inherit their parents spell books. That what inheirantacy is. I like some of your other ideas about selling off daughters one should get something out of the deal instead of just a friendship pact. Higher leveled children should bring in more loot agreed. The in line for the throne doesn't always mean the oldest child. In Medieval times there were several ways someone could take the throne instead of just the oldest. I always preferred the st

[quote who="Answulf" reply="66" id="2733805"]I can tell you this: At first I would have said yes, go ahead and buy it - but the more I play and the more I read positive, constructive feedback in these forums - the more I wish I had waited myself. I have played a lot in the past two days, and I can tell you with 100% certainty that the more you play, the more serious flaws you discover. The bugs I can live with, the major flaws/balance issues and really weak AI make

Everything he talks about lingers toward multiplayer fun and balance. I personally don't care for it. He's trying to REDESIGN the game just like the other trolls that post these things. Really you guys should know Stardock and Brad have their own design agendas and they are go

[quote quoting="post"]I tried playing Galciv 2 with all the patches and expansions a few days ago, and I got bullied and wiped out by the AI in normal difficulty. I remember having the same issue with the first Galciv as well when I tried playing the updated version of it some time ago as well. Brad, or anyone else which reads this: Stardock seems to always listen to the 'Hardcore' war-mongering fans which complain about how easy the game is, how passive the AI is, and how this is

I swear where has all the time gone? I've played 3 days of this now and don't want to stop to sleep now. haha I have 1 more day off wow it seems just a few moments ago I had 4 days off to play this. It's a lot of fun because it's new and it's something I've waited for for a long time. Since Master of Magic actually. It has so many elements of so many other fantasy strategy games also. MOM, AOW, HOMM, and Alpha Centauri and it's 3D too which is the only thing that too

[quote who="Frogboy" reply="50" id="2732579"]My 2 cents on ANY game I'm on the fence for: Wait for a demo. $50 is a lot of money and if you're not sure about something, wait for a demo. [/quote] But this game is already worth $50 even $80 which I paid. You can't let a handful of malcontents ruin your sales when the game clearly works for a lot of us without CTD's or other things some are saying are happening.

Reply to How long until Elemental is "finished" in War of Magic Stardock Forums

[quote who="commanderpwg" reply="31" id="2732677"]The game is definitely NOT ready to be played right now. I pre-ordered the game based on the great concepts that were promised, unfortunately they are not delivered as of the latest 1.05 patch. I highly recommend waiting at least a month and checking back here before purchasing this game, it seriously feels like a clunky beta test right now.

[quote] Also, AI sovereigns START OUT MARRIED which is unfair and unbalanced.[/quote] Oh quit whinning it's perfectly fair the ai is never as good as a human player so getting a spouse before you do is perfectly fair. I guess you never played The Guild 2 either as they get spouses and some even start out with children and it's a wonderfully fair and fun game. :))

Also, ETW is a lot prettier than this game, and had a much more cohesive and useful veterancy system (see my post above regarding sovereign veterancy). Additionally upon release ETW's multiplayer was functional, so IMHO it wasn't "way buggier" than this game. [/quote] lol I remember the for

I was shocked when they released this game in this shape, makes it look like they have no respect for their customers, it was all about selling the game and making a buck, I guess they don’t care about the future. I have been a loyal Stardock customer since GC1 first came out and it’s sad to see that they did this. They have no e

Reply to How would you rate AI ? in War of Magic Stardock Forums

I rate it very highly. I'm playing on a small map with 5 computer ai opponents with extreme difficulty and getting nice interaction and challenges from them. Next game I'm going to put maximum on the map. I remember in Master of Magic the best challenging games were on small maps with max ai opponents which was just 4 back then.

I remember both and I loved and enjoyed them both. So, Elemental is going to be right up there with them (already is for me).
