Reply to Who the hell signed off Windows 8 at Microsoft?? in Personal Computing Elemental Forums

I seriously don't get all the nerd-rage about windows 8. I got the $40 digital upgrade and after about 5 days of tweaking and customizing, I find that I really like the new windows. To be fair, my setup uses HDMI out to my HDTV so it might be different for traditional monitor setups but I really like what Metro brings to the table. Once I figured out how to fully customize the start screen and get all the apps working I couldn't be happier. I really th

Reply to [eMOD] Master's Affliction 1.02 in FE Modding Elemental Forums

The wandering monsters are still way too strong in 7b... On normal world, normal difficulty, sparse monsters... I get hordes of ogres and trolls near my starting location... The monsters also seem to be taking a toll on the AI as well... Another thing is there's ALOT more Champions being spawned all over the map and a lot of high level ones near my starting location..

XML guide in FE Modding Elemental Forums

I'm not sure if I'm just missing it but is there a guide to editing the different XML files for creating new items, units, spells, etc...? I can get the basic premise of adding new content, but a guide to the different XML tags and scripting commands that are available to use would be helpful..

Reply to Stardock should release the final product to beta testers for approval before release. in FE Beta Elemental Forums

Don't get me wrong the AI in MOM was horrible... With the unofficial patch it's a lot better.... MOM's spells were interesting and diverse, plus there were tons of them. Sure they were unbalanced but they sure were fun to cast. Why doesn't FE have more summon spells? Why doesn't FE have global enchantments? Item creation? Variable races? Sure you can say that FE isn't meant to be MOM, but come on in terms of depth it doesn&

Reply to Stardock should release the final product to beta testers for approval before release. in FE Beta Elemental Forums

Someone mentioned financial reasons for this release. According to steam, FE isn't even in the top 100 top selling games. It's being outsold by political machine for Christ's sake. It seems to me that's Stardock is losing money hand over fist on the development of this game and had it not been for the fact that Stardock doesn't rely on it's game division for its primary source of revenue than things would be much worse. All in all FE

Reply to The Metacritic Prediction Thread in Fallen Enchantress Elemental Forums

High 70s... if I had to guess I'd say 77 or so.... I think some of FE's design decisions will irk some reviewers (such as the way research is handled). I still believe the different game systems feel a bit disjointed and the balancing is not quite there. Also magic is STILL behind MOM in terms of spell diversity...

Reply to [eMOD] Doctor Who Mod [Discontinued] in WOM Mods Elemental Forums

I'd just like to comment on the prospect of a Doctor Who mod for Elemental (and please, it's "Doctor Who" not "Dr. Who" ;) As an obsessed fan of the series and someone who's seen every episode from 1963 to today I have to say that I'd love to see you eventually complete this mod. I'm not sure that elemental is the best game to do a Doctor Who mod for, but I think it could work. Consider fashioning a better lore-friendly back story. Here's an idea I've been tossing ar

Reply to Why is everyone upset the game came out "early"?!? in War of Magic Elemental Forums

Thanks for coming clean about the Elemental launch. I really wish though that you would just admit though that the beta testers who kept advising you to delay the game were right. I realize the whole retail shelf space thing but wouldnt it have been better just to wait the six months and in the mean time making Elemental the best it could be for release? Maybe you could have done an online only release in say November and release it to retail as an "enhanced edition" in Feb? &nbsp

Reply to Shards not working, not increasing damage at all in War of Magic Elemental Forums

[quote who="LikeTheWhirlwind" reply="38" id="2736278"]I'm personally reviewing all the spell XML and I want to let you guys know that changes are coming. We're looking into separating the hit and damage rolls for offensive spells. The hit roll will be caster INT vs. defender DEF. The damage rolls will be between a min and a max value, not just from 0 - max. Here's the fireball description in my current build: "Target enemy unit is hit with a

[quote who="Neil Banfield" reply="213" id="2734183"]I believe that if the game becomes very slow after a tactical battle where the screen went white then that is a different issue and one that has been resolved internally. If the issues continue with a save game (reloading elemental in between) then that is the issue that is still under investigation.[/quote] The tactical battle issue is defintely a different issue.
