Reply to [1.12] AI still very broke in Fallen Enchantress Elemental Forums

Can someone name a land based game similar to this that has a better AI? I'd really like to hear it. HOMM VI? Warlock? MOM? Civilization V? Other than Galactic Civilizations, which doesn't have magic, I can't think of one. I can't win above Hard on a typical map. If you really want the best challenge, IMO, you really need to play as each player and design lots of units. This game's AI will use the units you make and a lot of the challeng

Reply to This game has massive potential in Fallen Enchantress Elemental Forums

Since this is the best fantasy strategy game I've played in years, I'm pretty happy. I can think of lots of directions they can take from here. I saw your thread about AOW:SM. The problem with that game is that it really didn't have any AI. I think ones appreciateion of Fallen Enchantress will come down to how important it is to have decent computer players to go up against. The only AI that remotely touches this game's is Civilization IV's (not

[quote who="Mistwraithe" reply="116" id="3266457"] Quoting Mmrnmhrm, reply 109I think it's totally legitimate to call someone out who predicted a metacritic average of 68 as being someone whose point of view is out of the mainstream. I don't think the pro reviewers are mainstream. Rather, I think that a person who thinks that the pro reviewers would give this game a 68 is out of the mainstream. Do you think the same of those who predicted a 90+ metacritic? <

[quote who="Chibiabos" reply="106" id="3266119"] The fact that it is not a 'what would you rate this game?' thread is, actually, exactly my point -- professional reviewers aren't "mainstream" fans. Die-hard fans are befuddled Diablo III is being lambasted for its atrocious copying of Assassin's Creed's rightfully blasted 'single player games should require constant connection to our servers, and we aren't responsible for maintaining our servers eve

The user reviews on metacritc or anywhere else on games are useless. The prediction thread is about what the review score will be by professional reviewers. Not kids who gave it a 0 "just because".

The comment about Warlock sums it up. If you are looking for a game you consume in a few weeks, FE isn't for you. Which game do you think people will still be playing in a year? Warlock or FE? It's a shame that reviewers are rewarding games like XCOM, which come and in 20 to 30 hours of play but are critical of games that have a lot of pieces available. If you play as one faction, some pieces of the world aren't very relevant. I understand what

It'll be word of mouth that makes or breaks this game. Anyone who likes the game might want to spread the word. I remember that being something that made Sins of a Solar Empire a success back in the day. People would post about it on forums and give their honest experiences with it.

[quote who="Sythion" reply="69" id="3255398"]I'm going to say mid to high 60's, with the game receiving accolades for its ambition and getting very harsh and well deserved criticism for what will be called an uneven mix of RPG and RTS. They will get this impression due to the uneven flow of the game, causing champions/spells/monsters/soldiers seem extremely overpowered relative to each other at different points in the game. This was, of course, a disgustingly obvious truth

I'm not sure if he's trolling or serious. Calls the game unfinished with his first complaint being that there is no army organization screen or something, a feature I've never seen anyone request before. If this was something you wanted, why was your last post back last Spring? You had months to post your own requests. You chose not to and now you're flaming the game as unfinished because it lacks features you personally wanted but never requested? <

This has been a great year for PC games. Not such a great year or two for strategy games. Crusader Kings II was pretty good. I didn't get a chance to really play Sins Reb so I don't know how good that game is. If they have a strategy game of the year, I think this will be on the short list.
