Should be within the next few hours........



Of course I could be wrong.........(puts down pipe, saves big bud till tomorrow)

LoL.   I was having a similar thought earlier today.  Assuming I can find some... my bud moment is gonna be when my other PC is running and I can play at the world level to see all the cool graphics.  Won't be long now.  But time enough to test out 1.09n with an intergrated graphics card.  And long enough that both the bud and the world view will be all that much sweeter.

You and me both.  :grin: I think the most exciting thing about Elemental are the possibilities it opens for GalCiv III (sorry, I'll always be a sci-fi guy at heart :borg: ).

Can't wait for this.  Bought Elemental about a week ago but haven't delved into it yet cause I'm waiting to learn once all the big changes are in such as global mana.

This game looks better and better.  Finally something unique and fresh.  I'm so sick of cookie-cutter games like Call of Duty and Medal of Honor.  Stardock may have made some poor decisions on the launch but it is warming to know that at least there are people out there will to create and support fresh, unique, and innovative games.

Can't wait for v1.1!  Stinks I have organic chemistry test to study for tomorrow....I was hoping to play this newest update :(

Just wanted you guys know that I've been testing the latest build out and it's looking good enough for a beta.  No one's at the office to stage/release it but it's looking a lot better.

We'll be pretty interested in hear feedback on it.  It's definitely a beta but it also has a lot of bug fixes and performance improvements in it too.  The UI improvements will probably be one of the things users notice right away though. I'm finding things a lot easier to do.

There's a lot of balance needed here. Magic pacing seems a bit slow early on. The monsters are a lot nastier now, you do NOT want to leave cities undefended.  One of my test games was cut short because of that.

Anticipatory goose bumps all over. No kidding, just happened.

Take your time with testing. I, for one, am in no hurry - I already accepted the fact that the game was problematic on release, and will be pleasantly surprised if the devs manage to improve it significantly. Meanwhile, I am playing Dwarf Fortress that keeps me sufficiently busy.

Any time scheduled for the release today or is it necessary to push it back another week?

Ah, multi-threading and deadlock. Much as i Love writing multi-threaded code, I think there are few things in the world less painful than trying to thoroughly test the stuff...

Waiting waiting ever so patiently...  It's a good thing I'm a patient man.  It's a good thing Brad's a good boss.  It's a good thing we have this game to help shape...  Life is good...  And Patient, apparently.

Take your time Stardock.

Thanks for cranking up the monster-nastyness btw.  I think that could go a long way towards helping the world feel more alive.

Ok, it's going to be tomorrow.  I promised the team I wasn't going to work them crazy hours.  So we're calling it a night.  We think we have the problem fixed but it takes about 90 minutes to build/stage/publish a build and it's already 8pm our time.

Great decision.
It sucks a bit that the patch would arive a bit late hehe. (I was F5ing a bit last night too :D). But just wanted to praise you for this decision.


During the summer I used to do crazy hours of work. But at some point I realised that without good nights sleep and a bit more sensibility nothing will get done properly. So now forcing myself to sleep on time and utilse my day better rather finding time that I can subsitute with sleep hehe.

All the best with the patch and hope you find the problem. It really seems from reading the forums on weekly basis, that things are improving. The team has learned from your past experiances, you are putting the past behind and going strong forward. (Success will follow shortly too).

 

ps. First Post hehe
