1.30 is progress?

from Elemental Forums

Seriously, I like this game, but it's even less stable than when I played it when it first came out.

Seems like it adds just as much bugs as it solved. The game crashes even more than before.

And then there's all sorts of glitches with units. So they changed it so that the min units is a squad of 4. But why then is it showing up as 1 unit half the time when I want to build?

Then there's the headless naked torso bug, where halfway the game my units appears as headless naked torso's when I want to build them. (this is on self-designed units). Also got that on on self-designed hero's.

Also getting damage in combat while I'm not getting hit.

I used to get like 15 shards in a game and get the quest once. Haven't seen 1 shard the whole time I've been playing in 1.30 (but had the quest a few times)

Generally, I get stacks of the same items when I visit quest locations. Daggers and capes mostly. But usually always the same stuff within the same game.

Whenever I do that research where you'll find new recources/camps, nothing ever appears in my area. I mean not even ONCE!

 

Sorry if these things have been mentionned already, didn't see a thread about it straight away

Elemental 1.3 is most definitively NOT progress, but Stardock seems to have stopped giving a damn about the base Elemental game (not to mention stopped listening to us).

I also have the same or more stability issues with each new patched version. Really stinks, and that is the main reason I've mostly given up until FE.

 

However, to say that Stardock has stopped caring or listening to us is just silly. If that was true, then they would have stopped working on WoM and focused on FE completely. However, as Brad as said during multiple detailed posts (which shows they are still listening) he wants to get WoM to a better state before the FE beta. I have urged giving up on WoM and focusing every ounce of effort on FE. Brad still wants to keep after WoM though, so best of luck to him.

1.4 is going to fix all the issues from 1.3. It will however bring back a few from 1.1.   O:)

Here is a good explaination by Frogboy of why they're having such a difficult time getting EWOM to run smoothly & why FE will hopefully not have this issue.

He has also said that he intends to issue a version 1.4 which hopefully will address this and other issues.

I don't think EWOM will ever be a great game, but you've gotta give the man credit for his perseverance in trying to make it playable.

If I were frogboy I would have cut my losses. He must be some kind of guy to take it this far.
