Despite not having the best gaming computer in the world, I've been able to play the prior builds of this game just fine - until now. After several tests at various resolutions while playing alone against CPU with Fog of War off with max Demigods I've come to some conclusions. I've informed Yarlen and Cari_Elf of these issues via IRC. They suggested I used Forced Windows Mode, and I did, but it didn't resolve this issue. Camera: I've come to the c

As part of your resolution. I think what you need for your Novel Writing is some friendly competition! I'm working on Novels myself. :) I haven't started the core writing yet, but I betcha if you had someone to go against you'd start putting time into them. Oh and, finish the lower level of Stardock so you guys can hire me. :)

I'm going to speak from experience, but not Stardock experience. Now, people in the gaming industry have lives they try to enjoy and families they want to support and be there for. The beauty about "non-crunch time" is that you can leave work as your pre-determined time, or at least around that time. However, during crunch time you have to break down and pick up the phone, call your wife and sigh "Well, we encountered some problems today. So me and a few members o

Slippery, You're on a bit of a tangent. I said that additional elements to worry about can cause frustration, not losing. In addition, I never suggested that this games need to more simplistic.

Casual Gamers should not be rudely pushed aside as is being suggested by some people. I don't quite recall reading where this game was aimed at the competitive community, if your assumptions are related to its similiar play elements to DotA - then that is an ill informed connection. I've never really wanted to play this game competitively, but I've been keeping an eye on it since July and have been playing a role in this Beta Test for a great deal of time. I play games to relax a

A quite interesting and Memorable Online/Persistent World I've always enjoyed is where a massive world/galaxy map is involved. Throughout the map are many territorties with special abilities and rule sets. Players join a faction, and every online game they play effects these territories and how far your faction controls. Similiar exampels of this can be found in: Heavy Gear (Mid 90's PC Game) Multiplayer BattleTech 3025 (Canceled) MechAssault 2: Lone Wolf (XBOX)

It's a good tactic, don't get me wrong. The Wand of Speed portion of it is was seriously makes it a big problem. Not to mention, killing the HUGE army doesn't earn anyone a single point of Experience Points. Which is burtal.. Because it's such a powerful surge, and no reward for fighting it. The waves come quickly with the Wand of Speed, far too often. You just punish your foe by forcing them behind their defenses and preventing them from gaining experience points and making them
