This is CoE3 (v. 2.91) on Windows.

The ? works for me.
But for that, and the unit info, Id highly recommend Edi's manual for the game
For now you mostly have to learn the units for each nation. At least until a player wiki is setup

The ? is working for me now too. Don't know why it didn't before.

I've gotten 3 program not responding crashes so far. Anyone else have that problem?

samoht · #**265** January 21st, 2012, 12:13 AM

will there be a hard copy available to purchase?

ioticus · #**266** January 21st, 2012, 12:47 AM

Was the game supposed to be released early in a beta state? I ask because people are reporting they can't download the game after I posted that I got the beta. Also, the game is crashing constantly (I lost track of the number of times) on my computer with program not responding errors. I hope the final version is more stable for me.

Gandalf Parker · #**267** January 21st, 2012, 12:54 AM

I did not get the impression it was to be released yet. No
It was supposed to be a pre-order only AFAIK

Strabo · #**268** January 21st, 2012, 02:56 AM

Made a pre-order. This will be a birthday gift for me and from me.

Edi · #**269** January 21st, 2012, 02:58 AM

Yes, the game was supposed to be preorder only at this point, with actual release on Feb 20th. If Desura allows downloads already, they've screwed up somewhere and are in breach of contract.

If they closed that security hole, good for them.

None of us are going to give any guarantees of the beta working if you got your hands on it. For me, it has been rock solid on Windows XP, the only crashes I ever got were bugs that were fixed in short order or loading a save game from a too old earlier version.

In that respect, it would be interesting to know what version of the OS you have, ioticus.

Ioticus, sorry about that. The beta was never supposed to be downloadable from Desura. I screwed up some date configuration on Desura, it is hard to figure out what everything does there. I have not been able to set up downloads for myself and beta testers either yet, so you're the first one to have downloaded it from Desura. But I hope I will learn how it works soon, in the meantime you can try out the beta as a bonus for preordering at exactly the right time

And the crashes was a bit unlucky with that one version, usually the betas are fully stable.
