Re: Dominions 3 News!

If Dom3 is as good as Dom2 54$ is a steal. Even if I don't like Dom3 at all, I will just count these 54$ into "Dom2 expenses" and still think that at $100+ Dom2 was a bargain...

Re: Oblivion

Yeah, I wonder about mods too. Stock Morrowind's balance was badly messed up. Until mega-morrowind mod it was plain boring. I'm afraid the same thing may happen to Oblivion. I guess in a few weeks...

I think I remember Brad saying that AI is not programmed to particular rules and should be able to deal with different rules. Though the keyword here is *should* I suppose...

Re: Other thread

I feel the same way. Good news is that Brad is promising to add "no tech trading" option which I think should make things more interesting in term of variety (and I hope it won't make things harder...

Re: OT, galactic civ II

I totally agree with you. And because of those mentioned difficulties I don't expect it to be done.

Re: OT, galactic civ II

Everything is relative. There're always people claiming all kind of things. But people who play MP in games like Civ or AOW have never played Dominions, so they have nothing to compare with and don't...

Re: OT, galactic civ II

I don't think Brad has worked on any games outside of Stardock. He has founded Stardock when he has just started programming and was writing original Galactic Civilizations and I believe he was in...

Re: OT, galactic civ II

I have serious doubt about anybody creating game which has great SP and MP in any foreseeable future. You can probably share graphics and story, but the gameplay would have to be written pretty much...

Re: What the hell is up with Dominions 3???

This looks like a very important improvement to me - just yesterday I've found the hammer lost couple of years ago http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: What the hell is up with Dominions 3???

Stardock is not really an indy company. Games are just not their main focus. So they have existing customer base from non-game products. This makes it hard to compare Stardock with purely game...

Re: What the hell is up with Dominions 3???

I agree with quantum_mechanic. There's a lot of important stuff to do in the first turns. Evaluating indies, planning future army movement and scripting for the battles are probably most time...

Re: Dominions III : tracklist.

In Scandinavia the borders between folk, metal and opera are often very blurred, a lot of bands play music combining 2 or 3 of the styles in various degrees. So I wouldn't be surprised to find some...

Re: Dom II, feedback please

No, it's not that bad. There were good suggestion how to "help" AI a bit in the thread. Mostly, it's just that Dom2 really shines in multiplayer, so single player doesn't compare that favourably.

Re: Dominions 3 anticipation, a very bad move

I think many fans are just taking a break while waiting for Dom3. Personally, I'm enjoying vacation from Dominions. Playing so many MP games was quite stressful, and it will be good to come to Dom3...

Re: Civ4

Isn't it ironic that one guy without access to the source code has fixed memory problems faster than Firaxis team?

I've played Civ4 for quite a while. It has pretty decent single player mode, in...

Re: slave matrix question

Slaves either help masters to cast spells or do something on their own. So if your masters are scripted to attack, slaves will follow their orders. If you have few masters and a lot of slaves, some...

Re: earthquake?

A lot depends on whether you attack or defend. If you're defending, the best method I think is to cast fog warriors in the first round. If you're attacking, that's harder, because you're not sure...

Re: Shepherds of Creation Game 1 Thread

I can make shoes, I have gems too. But if Marignon decide to put a real effort in destroying me he will probably succeed.
