Reply to Spread the wealth...I mean essence! in War of Magic Elemental Forums

I guess this is one of those things that might change during the beta testing. If imbueing (sp?) a lot of heroes or heroes gaining essence will be too overpowered, they will probably put some restrictions on it in some way. Maybe the amount of essence a hero will gain could be decreased, or maybe there is a limit on the number of heroes you can get... The are numerous ways in which this could be changed so it wont be too powerfull...

Two to one game... in Demigod Demigod Forums

I just played a very unsatisfying Skirmish round of Demigod. A 4 people game was forming, 3 people connected to each other just fine, but the fourth couldn't connect to anyone. Suddenly that person dissapeared from the connection screen and the game started with only the three of us, without a bot to add a fourth player. Well, let me just say that I didn't had a really good feeling about that from the start and off course I was killed over and over without much chance to win. I know s

With the third choice added, I'd go for that one although I'm still very interested in option 1. In the long run, I think option 3 sounds like a nice middleground that would make the most people happy if there are enough ways to manually fine tune some resources. But I'd still love to see the possibility for the first one being added later. [e digicons]|-)[/e]

Had the same problem, I have Win XP 64 and after downloading the installation stopped at 0 or 1%. The file it stops at seems to change sometimes after a computer restart. Downloading with Archive and restarting in Safe Mode also solved this problem for me... I had this same problem with the latest beta, but because I left for a vacation soon after it arrived, I never followed through on it. I also had a similar problem installing the latest GalCiv 2: Twilight of the Arnor beta and that was s
