[quote who="Eidolon94" reply="1" id="2572799"]I will never get why people seem to be unable to read video descriptions on YouTube. 'This is footage from an early beta of Elemental.

It seemed bizarre why would anyone disable all of the visuals or why would that option even exist to begin with so you can'

Maybe my expectations are higher due to King's Bounty: The Legend influence but aftar watching this I feel shocked at the scarcity of everything. Is this really all there is to this game, why would anyone want to play it if they already played Civilization 4, even the terrain there has much more graphical meat. Where is the visual meat in this game? I sure hope it is not only in the window pop up of anim
[quote who="VicenteC" reply="58" id="2547336"] that's a pretty different type of game, [/quote] No, it is not, tha main part of both games that gains traction among game buyers is the combat part, and that is based on the same principles, and outside of that is the RPG gameplay structure that makes those principles work even better. I would actually be more worried about <a href="http://thesettlers.fr.ubi.com/the-settlers-7/?utm_source=CRM+EMEA&utm_med
[quote quoting="post"] Civ5 will be coming out this fall! I hope that doesn't cut into the success of Elemental. Maybe SD should slow things down and see what they're up against. You wanna make sure you can top Civ 5. [/quote] It's not bad timing. Elemental should just be more like King's Bounty as possible, with extensive spell system, elaborate spell effects, units that level up, outstanding animations and gear for the main character.
[quote who="GhostKingGeorge" reply="27" id="2539157"]how do i get mom?[/quote] Don't do it. I recently tried to play Fallout 2 and Starcraft becuause I had fond memories of them, but when I installed them I was appalled at the graphics and animation and resolution, they look absolutely decrepit. You just can't play old games.
All these images are of very poor quality and cluttered with letters and lines, here is how a true wallpaper looks like- I never have wallpapers that have words on it, it needs to be a pure high quality image.
I guess it's not ready yet.
LOL, so many typos in the Rain of Fire description, but typing grate instead of great makes me think that the person who wrote it isn Normal 0 false false false</w:AlwaysShowPlaceh
So, the combat is largely unknown yet? When is the release date, because the combat part is the largest and most important part of the game. I assume this game will go after the same people who bought King's Bounty and AP.
For anyone who doesn't know about King's Bounty, here is an interactive builder with all of the units in the game, their stats, skill trees and gear(spellbook and pet dragon is not present). It is tactically deepest TBS RPG ever made, it is also on the list of best 50 games ever made(though hate that you can play only as a woman).
Do we even know if it is turn based?
This looks amazing, the clarity, the clean sleak design of units(although why are they all of the same color?). But I'm a bit cautious because screenshot is one thing, it might be awful in actual motion. I've been burned more than once on that, so can we see this in motion since you obviously have a working game? And do you select groups of units, do they have various stats like in King's
