I put my son's nickname in GC3 as a star. Someday in the future my recently arrived daughter will ask why her nickname never made it into a video game. Clearly I showed favoritism towards my son. Any chance you'll save me from that and have a name that ___ for this? Really, I didn't have any good questions yet.
I played the open beta for a while. There's a pretty common complaint among reviewers/non-hardcore Wildstar fans that the early game is a slog. It was too much of a slog for me to want to give them money. I kept waiting for that magic moment that fans of the game say comes once you get through the early levels, but it never arrived. I think there is probably a good game in there somewhere but from my, admittedly limited, experience with it I could
[quote who="Borg999" reply="5" id="3465067"] Right. Like I said, I tried to read this from a non-fanboy perspective, not from the perspective of someone who will scramble to the defense of SD and Brad at the slightest knee-jerk induced perceived offense.[/quote] So are you being purposefully insulting or is it accidental? It has nothing to do with being a fanboy. It's basic marketing. They're using price to capture the hardcore fans (who can affor
[quote who="Borg999" reply="2" id="3465059"] So, only people who are willing/able to pay $100 for a game are the only ones committed to the game's concept? [/quote] No it doesn't mean that. It means that anyone who does pay $100 for early access is likely to be committed. It's a way to screen to get as many of those people as possible involved early on. That doesn't mean it's exclusionary and only those who pay $100
[quote who="Krazikarl" reply="11" id="3465048"] Quoting Heavenfall, reply 10 Yes, how could we ever compare the third Elemental game to Age of Wonders III, also the third game in a series? Totally unfair! Expansions are not the same thing as entirely new games in a series using entirely new engines built by largely new teams. Its an apples to oranges comparison. The Elemental series has received 2 major expansions plus a bunch of patches. A

[quote who="Borg999" reply="49" id="3463209"] It's not just this one DLC, the overall enthusiasm has shifted to a noticeable downward trend since the Dead DLC. For the first two DLC's, the general attitude was "this isn't everything I was hoping for, but I want to supprt SD" Then after the loot pack DLC, fewer people expressed that sentiment, and started seriously questioning the value they were receiving, and a few decided to take a wait and
[quote who="jshores" reply="27" id="3462171"] Never has a franchise alienated a customer base so intensely. [/quote] Seriously? People may be unhappy with this particular DLC offering, but let's get some perspective, shall we. This statement is ludicrous.
Saw it. It was great. It really sets up the rest of MCU Phase 2. My only complaint is that I thought it could have been even better than it was. As far as trailers go, this is the first movie that I've ever seen where I really felt like the trailers gave away the movie completely. I guess practically everything about it based on the one 2:30 trailer I saw. That entire elevator scene from the trailers can be seen coming 10 minutes away. Totally r

[quote who="drymetal" reply="15" id="3453012"] You're not looking at it correctly. You're not paying for it as if it were a full game. You're paying for four things essentially: 1. A full game that will be released sometime in the future. 2. The ability to play said game a year or so in advance (before anyone else) and see how it develops. 3. The ability to communicate to the developers your experience/bugs/thoughts/etc. which will have
There is also a $40 (? I think) non-Founders edition that isn't available yet on Steam. That edition will get beta access sometime this summer. The current version is the founders edition and comes with Alpha access. The Founders edition also comes with all future content in terms of DLC and expansion packs. FYI. The non-Founders edition is available through the SD store. Once they are ready to distribute it you will receive a Steam key to ac
All of the different posts here are exactly the point. What should we report, how should we report it and where? Might as well get some direction up front so that this is being as efficient as possible.
With your previous betas that I participated in you always had a post at the top of the feedback section for the preferred way to deliver bug reports. Files, screenshots, information you'd like, etc. Any plans on making something similar here or are you good with us just including what we think relevant? Also: Steam will collect any crash files, should they occur, correct? Looking forward to testing. "Performing first time setup.....
Well now. Color me excited. It may only be an Alpha, but it's a huge milestone on the path to release.
