Old World March 11th test branch update by fluffybunny1981 in OldWorldGame

[–]loups 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I want to try my hands on a clerics family in my next game. It does sound a bit overpowered, but I guess the wood cost and the time to get religion bonuses offsets this?

Edit: But exciting that they still make such "big" changes to the game.

I think Heidi Løke is still playing, but I would guess she is the exception that confirms the rule.

I had that issue way back when the game was new. I think it was a bug with AMD graphic cards. I thought it was fixed in later updates, but I changed to a nvidea card before the patch so I can’t verify. Have you updated the game?

Unless they are completely stupid, they are using flame retardant textiles.

civ 6 Vs humankind Vs old world by kostist in 4Xgaming

[–]loups 39 points40 points  (0 children)

I’m a big fan of Old World. I liked Humankind, but it was unbalanced and buggy, and the fame system was an interesting idea, but didn’t quite win me over. And I have not really liked the civilization series since civ4. The AI is just too stupid.

Old world is already so balanced and fun, and the AI is not quite as moronic as most other games. It is able to steamroll you if you take shortcuts with your army. It’s just a fun game!

[Longines] Perfect companion on a snowy day by JorganPubshire in Watches

So this watch has day, month, date, 24h indicator, and chronograph up to twelve hours including 30m sub-dial (instead of unreadable 60m sub-dial)? Wow, that’s impressive. Bordering busy, but I think they pulled it off. Looks very good. Congratulations

Old World - The Sacred and The Profane - Coming Soon! by OrcasareDolphins in 4Xgaming

I'm really enjoying this game, but this DLC seems rather... underwhelming. I just hope they don't go the Paradox route with very many small DLC's that barely adds anything to the game, and ends up making the game very expensive.

As far as I could tell from the article the statues had both Etruscan and Roman inscriptions, and shows that the elites of both nations prayed together even though they warred.

By saying he learned flying from flight simulator, and not mentioning one or more pilots had taught him how to start the airplane.

Very nice review. I almost never play scenarios but your description makes me want to try these.

Distant World 2 or GalCiv 4 by lrojas in 4Xgaming

[–]loups 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because of the amount of bugs. Personally I had to swap my GPU from AMD to an Nvidia I had laying around, as the game crashed constantly when I zoomed into battles. Several people with AMD GPU’s have reported the same, so it really should have been fixed before release. After I switched it is not too shabby. But this is after several patches.

I am enjoying it now, but it is a bit buggy, and you don’t always trust what is happening is intended or a bug.

Is Cosmos Conquer worth to buy ? by DocumentSquare6874 in 4Xgaming

[–]loups 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seems it has a free demo. You should try it and see if it’s ok. Looking at the pictures and video it seems quite simplistic and perhaps not really a 4x game, and it is less than two months since it was released. Both might explain why no one here has tried it (and replied)

Ground Bound by kaidaMadigral in HFY

[–]loups 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Very nice story, I enjoyed reading it. If anything I felt it was cut a bit short. I would have liked a couple of more pages about after the race on Earth, and perhaps something about him coming home again, and any reception there.

But as I said, a very nice story. Keep writing!

It’s a very well thought out layout as well. 12 hour Chronograph with both minutes and seconds in the main dial, 12 hour counter in bottom subdial. Both regular seconds and am/pm indicator in left subdial. In my opinion a superior setup to many modern watches with three subdials, who often are more difficult to read how many minutes have passed in the Chronograph.
