adding Dynasties back in and making them really cool/interesting.
...an all night coke party for the team when it scores above 90 on Metacritic.
Adding the new ideas popping up in the forums for FE. Also, making sure the game is frakking polished.
....fleshing out Tactical Combat to make it as good as Age of Wonders!
Adding so many new magic spells that even Edwin99 can't think of anything to add!
Making Kenata's weapons mod a core part of the game.
But that would be easy, where did the $1M go? I'm pretty sure Kenata can't charge royalties for a mod
... paying Frogboy to work on the AI?
.. because he has this thing and it's f**** golden. And he's not just going to give it away for free.
Paying for a team of senior managers to spend six months debating if it should be added or not?
... wait, that's my day job.
... making full motion action clips, like C&C, with cool actors.
Financing a coup in Swaziland.
Please tell me Derek doesn't have Blago-hair. One like that is already too much cruelty for this poor planet.
Random creature generator allowing for different sizes & shapes & the ability to make them minor factions
...vacationing to escape the "nerd rage" that will most definitely slam the boards 1 week after release.
...recruiting the retired AI coders of Age of Wonders.
deleted.
... 10M magic beans.
... to revamp the entire graphics system, obviously (one can dream cant they?)
I mean come on, the original idea was to be able to play E:WoM on a netbook..... do they really think that basing your graphics on a computer that has absolutely no ability to display graphics was a good idea?!?!?
They are already moving away from that as they went from shader 2.0 to shader 3.0. Helps with performance and various bits. Frogboy said he wished he could even apply the same solution to E:wom to solve some graphical bugs and decrease the memory usage - but that it wasn't feasible since netbook owners wouldn't be able to play.
"graphics system" wasnt what i meant, my mistake
i meant revamp all of the art, ie give E:FE modern graphics
What's wrong with the art? The maps seem pretty good looking to me. Sure the champions could always have better facial features and better animation, but this is not an AAA game. There's no way a TBS like Elemental will ever get graphics like RTS, FPS or action games.
ever play homm5? have you seen what homm6 looks like?
the art is just too cartoony for me i guess
The art is not very good in this game with the exception of the cloth map. Art is very bland and well ugly.
As I said, it's not a AAA title. Making good looking humans demands a lot resources. Especially if you want to have customization in. Making space ships look good is much easier, like in GalCiv. Sure I wish the units looked better, but they don't seem that ugly to me.
As for the rest of the art, the world looks good in the latest dev journal, and the spell icons that I've seen are very good looking. Spell effects are pretty good too.
