Known bug, look up my post on it a couple of weeks ago, same issue. Thanks for bringing the needed attention to it though. No point in having hovering health bars if they're COMPLETELY inaccurate.
IMHO, after many custom and pantheon games, I think QoT and Rook are underpowered.
AI in hard mode tourney above a certain level starts evading roughly 50% of attacks. It's bulls***, but it's meant to make the game harder. Actually just makes hard mode broken.
I agree with *ALMOST* all of this. Really nice work, clearly thought went into this. +1
OK the OP's not arguing for different difficulty levels. He's just making a very basic request (and I have the SAME one): Dear Devs, please add a single player tourney mode where both teams have same hp regen, same ai, and same income. THAT should be normal mode. Currently, normal mode puts the opposing team at an inherent disadvantage, and hard mode just flips it around. There should be a legitimitely NORMAL mode. Thank you :-D
[quote who="AngryZealot" reply="9" id="2165392"]Yes, it really is hybrid. For them to come up with this “hybrid” of both, would be a matter of months, not days because being a multiplayer ‘centric game, the underlying game code would have been specifically tailormade for p2p. He's wrong here. I *think* what Stardock is doing is using the NAT facilitator to route people through the proxy if they need it. His statement would be true for a norm
Happens to me every once in a while. Before patch too. I think it maybe random enough that it just didn't happen to you before patch. Do you have Vista 64-bit?
I absolutely LOVE these reports. Shows us you're working, keeps us in the loop. It's how government should work ;-) Keep up the good work!
^^^ Brad, if you're reading this, that's a legitimate problem. I actually got the SAME message, but I DID get in the game. That's right, I got in the game and that message was there, but I stayed in the game, just had to "x" out of the message to play. But yeah, I think that message is more prevalant with the new patch.
Okay people. We're all dealing with one day's worth of games here. It's hard to base anything off such a little cross-section. I felt my connectivity got better, but that could just be luck. You felt it got worse? That could just be BAD luck. Give it time.
^^^ What he said. /thread
Actually I have Vista64-bit and mine crashes frequently (once per 3 games) as well. I thought it was my computer overheating so I went out and bought a really nice laptop cooler. It still crashes. So you're not the only one.
HE WAS MAKING A JOKE. CHRIST PEOPLE.
They're not logarithmic, they're just broken. When you zoom in, they accurately reflect percentages. When you zoom out, they're incredibly inaccurate. It's a bug...
/signed. actually, uber/signed
Thanks. Thought maybe it was just me going crazy. Has this been addressed by the devs as a bug? Does anyone know?
Is it just me or do the health bars not accurately represent health when zoomed (not so far) out? It always seems like I've got them down to 50 hp, until I zoom in and realize that they have 600 left (out of 2000). The percentage that fills the bar changes when I zoom out so that 40% hp to 0% hp is all represented by a little sliver.
