Just for Alex. Adjusting Battle Replay Speed!

Of course there is a list

.

I would love to have the battle speed adjustable, for my sake as well as Alex's, but is is not feasible until the bugged battle replays are fixed, and that is an elusive bug. Unless the new suggestions regarding cross-OS-dunno-what give JK some good imput I do not think it will be easily solved. Unless the new imput is right it is not a bug in the battle, but generated earlier in the game, making it rather difficult to trace.

Sorry about your cheating gods

.

We intended to make a feature that increased playability. As we came across a problem of cheating in MP games we thought that it would be a good idea to disable or reduce the cheating opportunities. Of course we do not care if SP's cheat.

CUSTOM gods damnit ;p

How about this...leave the message in, but remove the part where they get turned into archmages. That way multiplayer people know whats going on AND it doesn't affect single player =)

Now that is interesting to me... This tells me that you did not even read what you were ordering... I just ordered the game Last week(received it yesterday)... It clearly states that you will receive the manual shrieked wrapped with the CD inside... If it is really that big of a deal, email me your address and I will mail you a jewel case...

Good idea.
You can immediately know who is cheating without hurting SP.

Hmm I preordered it before it even came out, money left my Credit Card, it came a few days after release, it never mentioned anything about its packaging.

Dom1 had a nice little dvd case thing it came in, I was rather hoping for something like that. It's not a big deal just a minor thing, I stole a case from a CD-R.

So things that come up often now from some of us are comments about how the devs have "real jobs and families" and are working on things that they "find interesting" in their "free time" that Users have "requested". I dont really know for sure how much the devs agree with all that but it has made an obvious difference in which threads here they join in, no matter if the ideas are good ones or not.

Welcome to the "real world" of the internet... the vast majority of the internet is plagued by such stuff...

I still have my orginal dom1 folder floating around, 3 years old as it is and being bumped around from various HDs and partitions, I can't say that about ANY other game =)

I can say that about Space Empires III and IV.

Although, SE III is far older than that... Civ II has also survived for quite a long time intact on my computer in all its incarnations.
