Elemental Video Walkthrough on GameTrailers!

Hes got a point some of you guys are whiny little bitches. Its the reason I quit going to the Sins of a Solar Empire forums (that and people can't seem to handle cold, brutal honesty.) The game will be good, if you don't like it or just want to moan. Then don't let the door hit you where the good lord split ya.

I was the one complaining about the lack of UI scaling. I didn't mean to make you crazy, Frogboy It's just my one big complaint about what's looking to be a great game and I was surprised to finally see someone else mention it.

Anyway, I've been in these betas since day one and I've been reading the dev journals ever since. If it means anything, the in-depth look at Elemental's development has pretty much cemented Stardock as one of my favorite developers. I'm liking the sound of Beta 5 as well, even though I probably won't get a chance to try it.

(BTW, if you value your sanity, stay as far away from the Blizzard forums as possible. I've been reading them off and on for years and they're always a disaster. Doesn't matter if the games are any good, it just comes with being a popular developer.

I appreciate your words.

We love you guys. I mean that. What we're looking for is some awareness that we're 19 days from release and someone asking for a feature that is clearly way beyond scope at this stage is just incredibly demotivating.

Now, ThinkProgress says that people who are sensitive (or "thin skinned", which is something I think most people would agree is a pretty laughable assertion) to endless criticism shouldn't participate. But I have to ask the community, is that what you want? Should the deveopment team, including myself, simply back off the forums entirely?

If the community wants the development team to participoate, a highly unusual event, in return we would hope that users can appreciate that and realize that this is a terrific opportunity to continue to make the game ever better between now, release, and beyond.

Thanks for showing great stuff in these walkthrough videos! During beta testing I was occasionally worried that the game would not be deep enough. But now I am convinced this will be a wonderful game. UI is certainly good enough. People who put a perfect UI as top priority when judging a game, well congratulations there's a lot of crap games out there with great UI but nothing of value beneath the looks.

Thanks.

The tactical battle UI needs a lot of work. The main UI area was where we had some new UI impleemnted. The tactical battle UI won't be in for another week.
