Reply to Sorry guys, there will be a beta 1z3 in Elemental Dev Journals Elemental Forums

No apology needed. If you have to make a beta 1zzz I wouldn't care. What I like is that it shows that YOU care about putting out a polished product. Something MOST developers no longer worry about. I am confindent that when Elemental is released, it will be at the best possible state that you could create. Sure, there will be some patches and maybe even balance issues worked out post launch, but the launch title will be stable and fun! That's all that

Reply to What's up with Reviews today? in PC Gaming Elemental Forums

"Hmmm. I have 20 games to review this week. What's this? A turn based game? I guess I'll play it for 10 minutes and see if it's any good..." "Why are you wasting time with that game? Atari just gave us more bags of money. Work on one of their titles. Give it to Joey." "But Joey's a halo junkie who hates anything turn based or has the word "strategy" in it." "Then it will be an unbiased review then, right?" Elemental: War of M

Yes, still happening to me after two updates. This appears to be a windows xp problem? I played the game at home on win 7 x64 with 0 problems.

PBE feature or muti-save? in War of Magic Elemental Forums

I haven't seen this mentioned anywhere, but will there be a PBE (play by e-mail) or multi-player save feature? Some of us at times (with small children) don't have a lot of time to sit in front of a multi-player game for hours on end. Will there be a way to save the match so that a two player match can be continued? Or a take a turn, email, take a turn, email setup? Sure, it would take months to play a game this way, but some of us are far to busy for a live multi-player m

Reply to [0.299] CTD Next turn in WOM BETA Builds Elemental Forums

I too, got this to happen to me on friday (before friday's new build and saturday's) and have yet to try it again today. However I go no debug file or dump file, no error message or no crash report at all. It simply CTD when I hit end turn and that was it. Win XP 2 gig ram Nvidia 9500 Intel Dual core I'll post an update after I play it today to see if it continues this behavior with the new builds.

EVIL quit game message. in WOM BETA Builds Elemental Forums

I feel that the developers are unnecessarily evil in placing the "Are you sure you want to quit? A few more turns couldn't hurt" message when you quit the game. The game is evil enough at consuming 100% of my free time. Now they want 110% of it?

[quote who="Frogboy" reply="9" id="2587384"]As long as the beta goes out before 5pm on a given day, we can charge preorders same day. [/quote] Wow.. Coders that quit each day at 5pm? What kind of alternate universe do you live in where "the man" doesn't force you to keep a cot at your cubicle and bug fix until 5am? It must be pleasant there and smell of amaretto carrots.

Reply to Civ 5!! Bad timing. in War of Magic Elemental Forums

The problem with Civ V is that well... it's Civ V. It will bring a few new features to the game, but it will still be a civ game. There's nothing wrong with that, but given the choice I would pick EWOM every time.

Reply to A walkthru of Beta 1Z in Elemental Dev Journals Elemental Forums

I can honestly say that I have NEVER been "aroused" by a forum post... Until now! This preview shows that this game is everything I hoped it could be and more. I now actually fear for it's release because I'm going to fall into the rabbit hole and never come out.

Reply to Cloth map? in War of Magic Elemental Forums

I love this idea of a cloth map and making it 100% playable on that map. That way if you have horrible system requirements you can still enjoy this game.

Reply to The first sales figures are in! in GalCiv II News GalCiv2 Forums

Thank you for not using an evil DRM system like starforce (that actually disables some people's CD or DRD roms). Thank you for not tying the serial number into the hardware of the machine (so that I can play at work and home). Thank you for not requiring the CD (so I don't have carry the cd back and forth). Thank you for not making it XP only. My office isn't upgraded, and I can't play a lot of the new games because of it. For me, there are many reasons not

Reply to The Republicans do some counter-"documentary" filmmaking in Politics PolMach Forums

Someone needs to make a Kerry Vs. Kerry Debate video. It's easy to find audio clips and video clips where he "stands" on BOTH sides of the issue. He could debate himself on just about every topic. THAT would be a fun video to watch.

Reply to F 9/11 is the beginning in Politics PolMach Forums

We do not target Civilians. It is the fault of the terrorists and the insurgants that hide and use civilians as shields. We have to eliminate the threat, and sometime innocents get killed. However, a lot more innocents will die if we do nothing. In regards to the same-sex marriage, the silent MAJORITY of people believe that it is wrong. It is NOT hatred or discrimination. It is NOT a civil rights issue. Marriage is one man, one w
