Reply to Sorcerer King nears gold and some random thoughts on the game industry in Sorcerer King Dev Journals Elemental Forums

SK is my favourite game, of this type. I would easily give it a 9/10 and once a few bugs are fixed it could get to 9.5/10. It has that one-more-turn factor, in spades. Every game plays out differently. Each "hero" can alter the game style. Not that it can't be improved. For example, - I have never found any use for changing landscape - placing roads is another redundant spell - I never harvest mountains or forests <p

"use" bug in Sorcerer King Support Elemental Forums

In my games the summon "dog" statue does not work - no pet dog joins my army Consume potion for 50 XP doesn't add any experience A few of the other potions also do not appear to affect my unit.

Battle abandoned bug in Sorcerer King Support Elemental Forums

I have experienced the following twice - once in the final battle against the SK Into the battle turn 2 or 3 and all of sudden screen comes up saying that I have won. The battle was no where near finished.

restore 50HP potions not working in Sorcerer King Elemental Forums

I have noticed a number of times that when my units consume 50HP potions (beta 5.4) that they in fact don't restore any HP points. I have also noticed that a few items simply disappear when you assign them to a unit. The one I remember best was a a cloak that came into my possession as loot, I believe it conferred dodge ability (but not shadow cloak), brownish icon. However, when I equipped it simply just disappeared.

@Yarlen - I am so happy!!!! I installed the VC redistributables from the ashes subfolder and then ran setup of directx and it works!!!! I have a feeling as more people buy Ashes you will probably get this issue more often unless the installation deals with this possibility.

OK update, I got all excited when I saw there had been an update via steam. However, excitement was short lived - no change. I decided to pay more attention to the error I was seeing when I ran ashes_dx11 directly which is 0xc00007b which appears to be a mismatch between 64bit and 32bit software. I followed all the suggestions ht

@Yarlen UID-579-56261 Brad A has been working with me on it. All the scans etc have been handed in. No rush, I understand it is a new product, I am just keen to get to see Ashes running.

Reply to Does not work - at all in Ashes of the Singularity Founders Elemental Forums

No, so far I have been asked to send in logs of the software but no updates or suggestions that have made any difference. If I double click the ashes_dx11.exe I get an immediate access violation - i.e., no pause which suggest resources cannot be found or something simple like that. If I run direct from steam by pressing the "play" button I see the blue windows circle for a split second and then nothing. As if I haven't pressed anything.

Yes, no joy so far. I am waiting for support people to get back to work after the weekend. ;)

Reply to Bards Tale IV - kickstarter in PC Gaming Elemental Forums

The original Bard Tales were awesome, back in the late 80s :) The new Bards Tale will be party based, but I got the impression that it won't be isometric, but POV with your party members around you - however, I could be wrong. The best place to find out more is simply to follow the link above to their kickstarter page.

Just a question about the badges - how do they work? I have purchased the Ashes of the Singularity Founder's Edition but i don't seem to have a a badge like other members.

Reply to Differences between the 3 Elemental games? in Legendary Heroes Elemental Forums

In my opinion there are just two games. The first three and then Sorcerer King The first three in my mind just all run together in a blur. No major significant differences, they all look the same, the game play is fundamentally the same. Just small difference that in the long term just blended together in my recollection. Having said that I have played over 700 hours with the first three. Brad will undoubtably have very different ideas but I believe&nb

Reply to Windows 10 to be RTM July 29th in Personal Computing Elemental Forums

RTM = release to manufacturing I was under the impression that it was available for the public from that date. I am hoping it is going to be worth it. I believe MS knows they can botch yet another release of windows - 8 and 8.1 were pretty horrid experiences for many people. The bits "missing" from Windows 10 don't really amount to m

Reply to Heroes VII in PC Gaming Elemental Forums

Quite a few games provide the "been there done that" feeling. It is annoying when you get the latest and greatest and then your excitement quickly disappears. Civ 5 comes to mind and beyond earth.

Reply to Steam reviews in PC Gaming Elemental Forums

@Trojasmic odd, I have the opposite feeling. I enjoy SK much more than LH. I also expect SK to become even better before release. But we digress. 90 hours is along time to play a game and then say you don't like it.

I agree - it looks better than i would have expected based on the last few installments

Reply to My Concern for the End Game in Sorcerer King Discussion Elemental Forums

The lts are a bit of a push over later in the game. They need more henchmen to soak up some of your attacks. At the moment I can take out the Lts by simply concentrating on them for a couple of round of combat. I love the idea of the world getting gloomier as the doom counter goes up. It could be that the ground ruptures in places and smoked and ash spew out, the trees could start looking sickly etc I also like the idea that when the last Lt is re
