Reply to An Apology to the Devs in War of Magic Elemental Forums

[quote who="Qyth" reply="13" id="2762946"] I don't really get this. They work and produce a game. I pay them. I do not owe them a thing, especially an apology.[/quote] That attitude though, when extrapolated to how this entire situation has played out, is rather narcissistic. In a business sense, yes, that's absolutely true, but in social interactions with the developers, or [b]anybody[/b], it's simply good manners and being the better man to treat

Reply to Labor Day notes in Elemental Dev Journals Elemental Forums

Hello there! I've been following Stardock and loving their games ever since discovering vanilla GalCiv 2 (way before Dark Avatar came out) for years now, and I tend to lurk the forums and not really post, but, well, I suppose it's necessary to be heard sometimes! I do think, despite the issues it has (I've still had a blast since release with Elemental, mind you, but there's no getting around that it has so much more potential), that the reason people have such strong feelin

With my newest custom race, the Kaaran, I've been pursuing a very Homeworld-esque aesthetic. I think it's come out well so far.

It features four independantly moving turrets, and cutting-edge Kaaran armor (Despite the pitiful technology on it, it actually is quite a threat currently in my galaxy, with how slow research is.)<br/

I've also noticed things like random bonuses (I once randomly aquired THREE Ranger-class vessels that were far beyond the capabilities of anybody else in my game, including my own, over the course of a few consecutive turns) happen a lot more often if you have the Luck bonus.

Finally got everything registered, up, and running. Apparently the key on my GalCiv II Gold case was for the Dark Avatar Download+CD. After I was told how improbable this was, showing pictures to the tech support guy of the box, manual, CD, and serial code cleared it up nicely, so I finally have Twilight of the Arnor up and running. Thanks, Kryo, for upping the priority on my support request. I can't imagine how long it might've taken without that. :) If I knew how to gi

The ticket ID is: MOB-928440. I do thank you for your willingness to help and all. I was kind of worried that there wasn't much that you guys could do for me. :)

This is, I think, my first post here, but I've had the original GalCivII (My father bought it years ago, and I..."borrowed it" for an extended stay. ;) )for a long time. However, I just bought a Gold Edition GalCivII from Circuit City last night, after reading stellar reviews of the new Twilight of the Arnor expansion. So, I came home with it, and purchased Twilight of the Arnor as a download+CD thing as I was installing the game. All worked well until I downloaded Stardock Central
