[quote who="willie sanderson" reply="1" id="3325112"] Yeah I see what you did. You TRIED to SQUAHEEZE a deal out of STEAM for your FE game (you bought from Stardock) now but the deal on STEAM was for the STEAM version of FE sort of a here's a neat little cheap gift to give you for buying FE on STEAM. Now you're SCREWED and you want some kind of restitution for your FAILURE to get a cheap copy of the map pack. [/quote]you didn't "see" anything. You read what yo

Basically having read that i fall into the "free legendary heroes" crowd (august 2010 according to my order history) I went ahead and bought the map pack for FE via steam and added it to my gift inventory with the intention of activating it as/when i recieve my LH steam key. Thing is what was not made apparent on the main splash for LH but what is now apparent from reading the forums is that LH will be a STANDALONE title ... so basically i just bought a map pack
The previous text body of this post was on the slightly miffed side with regard to the hoops some have had to go through to get the stardock version of the installer to run. Now that i have managed to get it working it would be unfair to leave this thread in it's previous state as i do champion the game itself i was just furious that we had all these arguments against giving compensated members STEAM keys and then it turns out the SD Download/Installer is a dog.
There is no mention of the: NPC KINGDOM FACTIONS HAVING ACCESS TO DEATH MAGIC IN CUSTOM GAMES!!! i made a thread but it's been driven several pages down so it may not have been seen. Basically (and in my case specifically Gilden) i have noticed almost consistently that when playing a custom game Gilden has Vigilant Minions within a few turns, this is Death magic and they are supposed to use life??? i h
[quote who="Hagwise" reply="2" id="2745385"]I've actually encountered the Pariden (spelling?) faction with a vigilant minion. So if they are summoned with death magic, there appears to be a bug. On a related note, isn't the vigilant minion obscenely powerful for such a low level creature? 10 damage to every opponent will kill most champions unless they level constitution, and two of them is just ridiculous.[/quote] There are several posts regarding this ....
No matter what custom game i play 'Markinn' the default Gilden Soverign appears to have access to Death magic as he has a Vigilant Minion up within a few turns ... There is something wrong here as a) the character shows as having "Life" magic when creating a custom match and selecting him and b) He is a Kingdom faction and thus should not have access to "Death" magic at all. What i will do now is try creating a custom game and choosing this char as my soverign and see if
Aha ... the power of the back button - I am out of work just now, i bought Elemental because i'd read the drivel that is Mafia 2 and had opted to go with the company i TRUST and have faith in. Now i woulda thought the lesson was learned with Demigod, but clearly not. This might sound harsh but there was a BETA test for MONTHS and i am gettin a bit tired of PAYIN
Yea and my less than pleased reply along with it .....
[quote who="Mtn_Man" reply="40" id="2730698"] I've never understood why cars are the go-to analogy for video games.[/quote] Because it is a simple way of saying would you pay for half of something, relating to an item that for the most part people pay alot of money for and expect to work from day one. Therefor it triggers the same thoughts and feelings that are being conveyed, which in turn gets the reader thinking in the right way. Given that all y
"People need to remember how hard games like this are to do right. " Then extend the sodding release date!? would you buy half a car? Sorry but i am no longer willing to make up excuses because i am loyal to Stardock ... it's not like this is their FIRST ever game and it's not like there haven't been hundreds of complaint threads in previous forums before this .... IF i'd paid say ... 20-25 pounds for the game than yes, but when im payin CONCIDERABLY more for a DIGITAL title t
No i am sorry, i am out of work just now, i bought Elemental because i'd read the drivel that is Mafia 2 and had opted to go with the company i TRUST and have faith in. Now i woulda thought the lesson was learned with Demigod, but clearly not. This might sound harsh but there was a BETA test for MONTHS and i am gettin a bit tired of PAYING to be a Stardock employee now ... there is some stuff that should never have passed Q&A like the missing rewards

Ok so there is the confirmation ... any one else?

Summon Stone Giant is missing completely! You get the map from the wreck take it back to the market you get a tooltip saying you have Lightning Strike and Summon Stone Giant - excitedly you open the book ready to summon your new sidekick but alas ... it is not there ... zip ... nadda ... zilch .... am i missing something or is this really the case? /obi
Many thanks Hawkes i've already cleared the post and my sinere appologies for the misunderstanding there ... i don't wanna upset anyone talking negative believe i want the game to rock just hard as anyone else.
Lastnights patch wasn't the day 0? - the game got updated about 6am UK time ... i assumed this was the day 0 patch as no prior patch had been mentioned and frogboy had made a post about releasing it for preview or something to that effect .. perhaps i misunderstood can you clarify?
Ok i can now repopulate this original thread as both bugs that i originally posted are still in 0day Fireballs do not always show their graphical effects when cast, sometimes the camera will pan as if following nothing, i did notice this time it can appear just toward the end perhaps the graphic is clipping through the map? not sure. *MINOR SPOILER* By far the most annoying/dissapointing - Summon Stone Giant - MISSING completely!!!
how about a response from the Stardock team with regard to this? surely it wouldn't hurt :)
Ok well how about makin it an option? See i am in a clan and we play alot of games like this, and we tend to treat Sins like we treat civ... we all start neutral and then through the course of the game alliance and wars are made and won and lost and so fourth, but just the OPTION to have a Neutral status would be nice, part of the satisfaction we get IS the actual "goin to war" if yer already at war there isn't quite the same satisfaction .... Knowing everyone is at war
Yea it's been an observation since day 1 of playin Sins multiplayer, and now that we are finally to recieve the Dimplomacy addon perhaps this could be an addition?

the way i see it Brad, no one is forcing anyone to come in here and read your updates, and it's not like they clog up the recent post history either .... personally i think its an absolute no brainer that anyone who has gamed for any amount of time can see the benefit and appreciate the different way Stardock handle things with the simple fact that you ARE taking time out to do these updates and you are quite happy to do so! Bottom line i think to question whether
provided u have a legitmate copy, u can right click demigod in the list of "my games" and opt to archive it, then install impulse on the 2nd PC and send it over.
