Reply to Civilization:V vs Elemental:WOM in War of Magic Elemental Forums

[quote who="Lord Xia" reply="33" id="2941529"]I just bought this game, and after having played it, I am really, really Glad we have Jon on board at Stardock. Civ V is a very good game.[/quote] I'm happy Jon is working for Stardock as well. I'm sure he's happy working here too. E:FE is going to be great and Jon will be a big reason why. Thankfully, there is no 2K Games forcing it to be released far too early

Reply to Resolyn is Building Harbours and Fishmarkets in War of Magic Elemental Forums

[quote who="Austinvn" reply="14" id="2940921"] Quoting Heavenfall, reply 13From what I can tell of the AI, it just rolls a random number for buildings deciding what type to build, then builds something with that tag. It appears to be purely random after set numbers and turns, not necessity-driven. For example, the default AI will almost never build a level 5 city because the odds of building population buildings in a level 4 city are extremely low. Interestin

Reply to FE- Dynasties are cut in War of Magic Elemental Forums

I'm disappointed as well but I trust that Mr. Paxton and company knows what they're doing. I'd rather have a tight, focused fun game than a game that is all over the place and by trying to please too many people it ends up pleasing no one.

Reply to Civilization V patch tomorrow. in PC Gaming Elemental Forums

I found Civilization 5 to be more of a game. I found cIV to be more of an experience. Different tastes I guess. However, when I note that the AI doesn't like me since "You are trying to win the game the same way he/she is and they don't like it" that turns me right off.

[quote who="Kamamura_CZ" reply="12" id="2901204"]The game is beyond hopeless. I played an island game as Japan. Though the AI built a reasonable force, it parket all the units on water in front of my city and waited there to die from ships and city fire. No attack, no maneuvering, nothing. And not once, but multiple times. A simple scripted event that went wrong, I guess (problably pathfinding of a unit failed, and the others got stuck behind it). The AI declares war, then you buil

Reply to Devs: can you update us on DLL plans & modding support in War of Magic Elemental Forums

[quote who="Jon Shafer" reply="20" id="2937295"]Sorry guys, it's disappointing on this end as well. Our first priority has to be deliver a solid, fun core experience. When we've accomplished that, it will give us the opportunity to flesh out the other parts of the game. As you all know, the launch of Elemental was rough, and being a small company means its impossible to address everything we want to at the same time. Jon[/quote] Thank you

Reply to Civilization:V vs Elemental:WOM in War of Magic Elemental Forums

Civilization 5 is still a mediocre game (or worse) in my opinion because it was released far, far, far too early. That bun should have spent at least another year in the oven if not two. 2K Games wanted to appease their shareholders and make their year end reports look better. Civilization 5's AI is not good at all. The gameplay is lacklustre and the diplomacy is horrendous as well. Frankly it just isn't fun to play. Speaking of Civilizati

Reply to Derek, will FE have SP style Multiplayer? As Shogun 2 has shown, people will play long times if the MP is interesting and rewarding. in War of Magic Elemental Forums

I thought Kael said that by focusing on single player they could introduce some crazy stuff and not have to worry about multiplayer issues regarding balance. That sounds acceptable to me. I don't want single player watered down just so multiplayer is balanced. However, it would be nice to have some form of multiplayer. Even if things are unbalanced it could still be a lot of fun. That would be good for co-op style play w
