The campaign is more of a TUTORIAL! Play the sanbox/Continuos mode its where the meat and potatos of this game is at. WAY better then the campaign, I havnt touched the campaign/tutorial after doing the sandbox mode, lasts WAY longer.

Nice work dude!
Great post bud! I am sooo hooked on this game, looks like you are aswell with over 30 hours logged in hehe [e digicons]:blush:[/e] This is definatly a great game with some rough edges, but im sooo happy it was made and that I bought it. Games like this dont come out very often (:
I love this game to. Its just MY type of game, seriously addicting gameplay. Its perfect for me to be honest. Sure there are a few issues but man this is a great game here we have. To think I wasnt going to get this game right away to... so glad I got it [e digicons]:blush:[/e]
PLayed about 9 hour and I honestly cant get enough of it, LOVE IT!
Thanks for such an awesome game! I feel like I haev finally found a game that I can enjoy this much! Its very deep, challenging, lots of mod options and its just fun as heck to play. It really has got me addicted to the gameplay, ONE MORE TURN! I SWEAR! hehe Good luck to you and your team! Keep up the great work! I love this game! [e digicons]:jafo:[/e] Its like a breath of fresh air to be honest, with so many games playing it safe and doing ideas over and o
Sorry you dont like the game much. As for me? Ive been blown awya by how fun it is. Jus tstick with it, its got a learning curve (;
Go to the sanbox portion of the game its alot better then campaign. To me the campaign is really jsut a tutorial. The sanbox/Continuis mode is way better.
[quote who="phazonfreak" reply="18" id="2732472"]I have to admit that I was very disappointed when I played the pre-release gold version and I did regret the purchase. After installing the latest patch and having played for many hours today I must say that the game needs a lot of time to appreciate, it's a tough beast, but after you learn your way around it's very, very good. It's not perfect, there are still pressing issues, the magic system especially, but the foundation is fantastic. I am
THe game is very playable and extremely fun right now. I say pick it up right now, the game is epic and addicting as hell. only issue I have with the game is the slowodwn in the later rounds. Other then that, no crashes and just have had a veyr fun time.
This is the only problem I have with the game to be honest. I am loving the game but later on it starts to slow down a bit which is kind of annoying. Other then that I am just blown away by how addicting this game is. I have not had any crashes or anything though which is good. If they can fix the late game slowdown then boy will I be a happy camper because this game right here is just my type of game [e digicons]:andrew:[/e]
Just played a few more hours and LOVING it even more! Wow, what an epic game! It really is addicting! Ive alreayd had more fun with this game then 99% of other games this generation on pc or consoles.
Just played for another 2 hours with the 1.05 patch and man im having such a blast [e digicons]B)[/e] [e digicons]B)[/e] Playing a large map game on the sandbox mode and man is it great! It really feels like you are part of something big while playing this game, like you are getting things back on trakc for hte world (: Have not been this addicted to a game in awhile [e digicons]:grin:[/e] And to think I was thinking of not getting this game right away.
[quote who="Kazhmeer" reply="10" id="2731637"]Yeah, I'm in no hurry for Civ5. Between this game, Civ4 and all it's mods, plus all 3 AoW games installed, Civ5's an afterthought. Maybe when it's half off I'll get it, but even then, eh, whatever. I'll be smokin' the Elemental crack pipe for quite some time [/quote] hahaha, great post bud. I am so addicted to this Elemental game its not even funny [e digicons]:grin:[/e]
[quote who="stoicfaux" reply="24" id="2731557"] Quoting katalist, reply 17 How about try the game first? You are making a judgement based on others. Sure, where's the demo? Or should I pirate the game for review purposes? And what's wrong with doing a little research before plonking down money for a product? Is everyone else's opinion invalid and untrustworthy? [/quote] The th
Great post bud! [e digicons]B)[/e] [e digicons]:digichet:[/e] Brad and the team have really made a special game here. Rough around the edges yes, but it has sooooooo much going right for it. The people who work for Stardock do seem like gamers to me also, like you said. They GET IT. Get what you ask? Well they understand DRM, updating a game and keepign it fresh, mod tools and fun games. Its amazing to me that a company the size of Stardock can come up with
[quote who="DaijinDW" reply="8" id="2731488"]Yeah, thanks Stardock for a GREAT game. This is the first game I thought I got my money's worth since Neverwinter Nights and expansions (NOT NWN 2). Thanks again for a GREAT game!!!!! [/quote] Glad you are having a fun time to bud [e digicons]:grin:[/e] I was really on the fence about this game... but now I am soooooo glad I bought it!
[quote who="stoicfaux" reply="16" id="2731462"]I was on the fence also. Judging from what I've seen and read, I would say no. The problems I see are: * AI is very weak * game mechanics aren't implemented enough (ex: high level Magic spells don't scale, no meaningful documentation, bad interface, odd content, etc.) * Multi-player isn't activated. The cynical side of me thinks that that is code for "it hasn't been finished yet." Given the
I have Windows7 64bit... but a Nvidia card... No crashes or big errors. Just some ai issues. Probably have alreayd done this but check all your drivers (sound and graphics,etc..) And also maybe use CC Cleaner and a defrag program to make sure you comp is nice and clean.
I say YES! Get it now! Its a fantastic game! Sure there are some problems but what game doesnt have issues? The game wont be for everyone, but for those who love a Deep and strategic game, this is a must buy imo. I was on the fence about this game yesterday but after buyign it and playing, man am I glad i got it! I have not had any crashes in 6+ hours of playing the game.
No problem bud! Keep up the great work on this awesome game! I personally cant get enough of it! Yes there are some issues in thsi game, its obvious... BUT... it also has so much upside and is a real gem. I have not had any crashes or anyhting like that in 6+ hours with the game. Sure some AI issues and the problem with teh archers, but Stardock always sticks with there games and has alreayd done a great job in updating this game. Cant wait to see wh
[quote who="Evolution13" reply="88" id="2731320"]I don't see anything broken with E:WoM. I bought it yesterday and played it into the wee hours of the morning forgetting that I had to work today. It feels ike the spiritual successor to MoM and what I'd hoped Age of Wonders was going to be. My only complaints are that unit design does feel a little thrown together and I can't figure out what tech and/or unit I need to build roads.. I know it's possible cuz I see the AI doing it all the ti
[quote who="TucoBenedicto" reply="25" id="2730260"] Quoting John_Hughes, reply 7 "is that it’s broken to the point of being unplayable" It is BS statements like that one that assure me that site is F'ed beyond repair. I am and have been playing E:WoM and having a good time doing so. Actually to me E:WoM is almost unplayable, so I really can't see this statement as a bullshit. [/quote] The game is aweso
[quote who="Jarenko" reply="6" id="2731317"]Out of curiousity, what is it that you people find enjoyable about the game in its current state? I'm mostly in the "It has potential" camp but some people seem enthralled with it out of the box. Where's the allure?[/quote] It has TONS of potential for mods and next games in the series. The groundwork is set here for a fantastic series imo. The gameplay is fun as heck, its very deep and is just fun to play. The continous mode
They have jsut gained a new lifetime fan with me. I just can't get enough of this game [e digicons]:andrew:[/e] Its a very ambitous game made by a smaller group, they deserve some props imo [e digicons]:grin:[/e] Instead of putting out more crap like alot of devs are doing and playing it safe, Stardock is reaching for the skies and making something with tons of depth and very fun. Keep up the good work!
