Reply to 1 vs. 1: Frog vs. AI in Elemental Dev Journals Elemental Forums

[quote who="Raledon" reply="30" id="3228036"]You could create maps, but you will most likely be asked to also place goodies and resources and and and... and in the end, people will learn the map, so for replayability you will need to create many maps, which is a lot of work.[/quote] Map making is an eternal art.

Reply to And now to discuss something of vital importance… in Elemental Dev Journals Elemental Forums

Population could be modified to also include the number of units within a city's zone of control; or to be decreased upon the death of a unit instead of the training of one. This would intertwine city and army sizes, making large cities as necessary as productive ones. Just a couple ideas worth mentioning.

[quote who="DGB246" reply="9" id="3226950"]This is also open to alot of other factors too. Such as what spells your sov has (enchanted hammers makes a 3 material start site less important as long as you have 2 essence). Another thing is how many other build sites are around - if you're playing a ravaged map with few build sites then food becomes more important as you may be stuck with 1 city for a while[/quote] [e digicons]:yes:[/e] This one^

Reply to Any interest in another playthrough? in Fallen Enchantress Elemental Forums

[quote who="Trojasmic" reply="23" id="3226057"]I wish they would just post a bug list for us to see so that we could self-check before reporting the same bugs. The problem is we don't know if they've seen our reports, agree with our bug vs. WAD, can't recreate our bug, etc. [/quote] Some Developer managed stickies could do wonders for the beta.

Reply to Why companies fiercely protect their cultures in Business Elemental Forums

[quote who="Frogboy" reply="3" id="3225304"]I wonder if there is a time limit before people stop thinking every blog or comment is about something unrelated. This past week we did, after all,have the DNC which, I hope, to most people, was a bigger deal than internet gossip. The current economy is a big issue and yet, for software companies, the jobmarket for hiring and retaining talent is very competitive. That's where creating a good company culture comes in

Reply to Why companies fiercely protect their cultures in Business Elemental Forums

Personally from what little I've heard this appears to be a situation that would best be served with as little energy as possible. Life, the universe, and everything is constantly unravelling naturally: a process lubricated via fewer complications. The heart prevails.

Reply to [Feedback] Cloth map city labels in FE Beta Elemental Forums

[quote who="darklander0" reply="3" id="3225227"]Yes, cloth map is fantastic. It would even nicer if forests,mountains, plains and rivers had unobtrusive labels on the cloth map. Like "Mountains of Despair", "Forest of Shadows", "River of Time " and so on... They could be used like orientation markers in the game world for events, quests and other stuff. What sounds better?
