Fallen enchantress isn't showing up in my downloads either, and I have preordered and was in the beta. I hope it's there soon, so I get to test it this week-end!

[quote who="Dash5" reply="49" id="2339115"]to participate in the beta do you need to sign an NDA? [/quote] They can't answer, they're not allowed to tell [e digicons]:grin:[/e] Actually i doubt it. previous Stardock beta didn't have one.
[quote quoting="post"] The alpha testers could attest to this right now except they’ve all lost consciousness (the smart ones anyway) due to passing out from it. [/quote] Only reason they can't? You mean you are freeing them of the NDA?? [e digicons]:grin:[/e]
[quote]Any complaining about the looks, sound,[/quote] [quote]Well it is obvious that any screens that Frogboy posts right now are alpha or pre-alpha, so I don't see how PP is saying anything one way or the other about being in the alpha.[/quote] Well, I missed the sound on the screens...So... But you're probably right
Well, we can switch presidents if you wish ;)
@PurplePaladin: errr.... did you just kinda hint you were in the alpha? No, don't tell me actually...better leave it there. PS: Where did you get that pict of me??
I can't stand this forum game!
Meet williams only
Yep, you *can* find more spellbooks in MoM. And there is at least two or three everygame.
[quote]True, but the only reason a person would refuse to answer is because they are under NDA and don't like lieing. (Not counting eets, who would refuse to answer just to stir up trouble...)[/quote] Well, or they could like teasing... Now that we all know that reasoning, it will be quite easy to convince someone you're under NDA, right?
Thinking a bit more about it, if you go for the extended beta, I think you should definitly try and make modding tools (or at least tutorials) available asap. Because the more mods there are available *at the release* the more enticing it will be for several players of the kind that build a strong community. Maybe you could even release some...mods, I mean. That said, only you know if it's worth it. But 6 month more or less wont make such a difference that the game would fee
Well, as most people who preordered already, I may not be totaly objective in that, but... YES! Please take your time, take as much player inout as you can afford. I guess here we all want Stardock to release the best game it can. Because we waited for a game like that for so long already anyway. And because the more success Stardock has, the more chance there is others will follow in it's steps. So please do, as long as you feel it's worth it. Just dont forget:
Yep, it was... Well, at least I guess. Dunno exactly how I managed that. Thanks to the 3 first replies for a good laugh, particularly NTJedi. And sorry all & thx to the stradock team for deleting the duplicates.
Well, I *am* glad! No more explaining to do. Posting a link to a few people right now! Thanks guys! Now can't wait to be in september...
@landisaurus: sure :) But I may have made the mistake already, so.... Anyway, they still are excited... But some are asking about the beta. Not that I got them to preorder mind you, but I really hope to have them do it once the beta are out.
Hi all! Sorry to be maybe nitpicking the first time I post here, but... Brad, could you please, please, have someone change the home page for elemental? Having it say " Elemental is scheduled to go into public beta by June 2009" is a bit unsettling. Especially when you try to 'sell' the game to friends... i know, I know... but not everybody does know stardock... Anyway, keep up the good works! I trust it will be more than worth th
Hmmmm, yes, yes, yes... Would you care to elaborate on the similarities? Just curious to know...
But I don't think it would enter the head of the most ethical, reformed, clean-living, (dare-I-say)...vegetarian...Drengin that there was anything inerently 'Evil' about slavery. No more than we think there is anything 'Evil' about keeping horses. Of course their isn't anything evil about it! We have to keep them because left to their own devices, they would only hurt themselves. They are not adapted to the world as it is today, so we tend to them, and i
And by the way, thanks, Kryo, for your answer
The risks/problems would apply when someone has gotten a copy with a preregistered serial, by whatever means, and wants to register it himself without the details or involvement of the previous owner Ok, I see .Actually I thought handing off the registration would then work the same way as handing off the account. that is, that it would be the responsibility of the first buyer to transfer its rights to the second hand buyer or at least free the registrat
The difference is that the credit card company and the government already have the person changing the address as a customer/taxpayer--they're not losing a thing by doing it. Actually, as it *does* cost them something to do the change, they are losing abit of money. Still, I understand your point: if they didn't make the change they would not get money anymore, so it is in their best interest to do so. In this case, i
Yes, a warning on the box would be nice, I think...Real good deals (like in Win-Win) usually have both parties fully informed. But it's probably a bit late for that particular game. To Mongo64: Thanks for your answer. Knowing a bit of both software programming and marketing, I tend to agree with you. Doing it "for free" would be a good idea. Of course nothing really is free. Most credit card companies simply have everyone pay a little more to compensate for the costs of address changes.
I think we are in agreement then. Now the only thing I wonder is whether Stardock *could* set up a way to transfer one registered product (Well actually I'm sure they can) and for what price (though once automated te price tag may be quite resonable on a per user basis). Hence my question to Mongo64...
Well, while Silverbeacher's example may be a little incorrect, the case he/she is aiming to illustrate *can* happen in software industry, and it is Stardock right, I think, to try and avoid it. And I'm not so sure I would say that someone that got his or her disk lost because, say for example, their notebook batteries took fire really deserve to have to pay again. But that's only my point of view. And while I, for one, am in no way sure I speak for the masses, I am not urging them to change
Well, yes, all true. But I think the point for some people was that they were John Doe in your example and weren’t allowed to resell the car. As far as I can tell, changing the register account email address means selling your house, your plane and your favourite chair too, not just the car. And one problem can be that some people are not even aware they don’t have a right to resell. Yeah, they *should* have read the licence. Nonetheless, when you can’t read the licence before buying
