Stardock, I'm a little disappointed with this game. Not only are the graphics the exact same as FOUR YEARS AGO ... you took away features like unlocking new characters and campaign mode. You also took away historical scenarios. You would have been better off taking the same 2008 game and slapping a 2012 cover on it -- it would have been more enjoyable. I hope you're planning on adding more with

Okay! After attempting to create my own art work (ha!), and many failed attempted to aquire good pictures, I have decided to use the game's existing artwork. I have made changes to the corecanidate file. The following are the changes: -Eliminated Chole Sullivan, Jeffrey Jackson -Bill Mason changed to Bob Dole, Mike Forbes changed to Steve Forbes -Added 10 democrats: Bob Graham, Zell Miller, Dennis K., Joe Lieberman, Barack O
Thanks Jeff. If you have AIM, IM me at Jesse3581 ir e-mail me at [email protected]. Endorsements? How about students, teachers unions, first responders, vets, farmers and ranchers and health professionals? We'll dive into that soon enough I suppose. I was thinking. This game is already set up for scenarios, so I bet one of Stardocks's first major improvments would be to incorporate that into the game. I got out of work
Here are the canidiates I have created ... Democrats: Bob Graham Zell Miller Dennis K. Joe Lieberman Barack Obama Al Sharpton Evan Bayh Tom Dashle Jay Rockefeller Mark Warner Republicans: Jeb Bush Elizabeth Dole Colin Powell George Pataki Rudy Gulianani dan Quayle Tom Ridge Dennis hastert Newt Gingrich Bill Frist I have done research on all these
I think it's better to focus on your oppent's base. If you're a Reoublican, you should build a level 3 HQ in CA and/or NY and/or IL. If you can capture either state, you're on your way to victory. Try to take TX, OH and FL. It really is worth it to sink in the political capital for a smear merchant and the money for ads in these states.
To me, endorsments are kinda like a flash in the pan. Yes, they do increase awareness and boost the issue, but after a couple of turns, it goes back down to normal. As an experiment, put the map on awareness mode and win 3-4 endorsements. You'll see awareness stays the same. Then try it again with polling data. If you're not campaigning, you'll see the states sway to your side, then back to normal. There is little long-lasting effect, so I agree
Another intresting development. Because my corecanidate file was modified, the multiplayer option was greyed out. After playing a game (McCain vs. Obama ... I got my butt handed to me by the soon-to-be-Senator from IL) I was able to play a multiplayer game.
Hey all, this was a lot easier then I thought. What I REALLY want is a way to draw those cartoons ... that would be kick a**. Anyway, I add in all I said I would, but I added them as .canidate files. e-mail me if you want them. Personally, I think I made Colin Powell strong enough to run on his own, or would be a GREAT Veep pick. Pataki and Guliani would also be good vp picks. Like I said before, I think the Dems have stronger canidates, so the o
I saw Frogboy posted that modifying the corecanidate file will disable multiplayer, but I think the patch fixed this. I modified my corecanidate file last night (Boosted Wes Clark's points and such) and although a message said multiplayer would be disabled, after restarting PM, I was able to play multiplayer ... comments?
Hi all, By modifying the corecanidate.canidate file, I'm going to add some canidates in tonight. They will NOT have pictures because I think it's better to wait for an offical version. Anyway, the guys I want to add are ... Democrats: Bob Graham (I'm curious to how the CPU AI will react to being able to pick a Flordia veep) Zell Miller (An experiment on what will happen with a democrat with republican appeal) Dennis Knu
Hey, playing around in the data folder found some intresting stuff. I don't know if people are aware of this or not, but you can change some of the stuff on the "core" canidates by opening "CoreCanidates" as notebook file. For example, I changed Bill Mason to Bob Dole and I touched up Bill Richardson a notch and gave Wes Clark the military experiance he needs. Anyone know why Vilsack is in this game? With custom characters, you can open tho
Okay, appearently I have a very "cheap" way of winning according to the guy I played last night, but it works, and I have minor difficultly beating George Washington and Tommy J. The trick is definately, definately the large HQ's. Spend the first HALF (20 weeks) building as many as you can and raising money in CA, FL, GA, TX, WA, WI, MI, IL, OH, PA, NJ, NY, MA and NC. You should be able to build 10, and try to build them in battlegrounds. I
Senator - I write you today as a former registered republican who is planning on voting George W. Bush out of office in November. I wanted to share my thoughts with your campign regarding your vice-presidental canidate and I wanted to throw my support behind General Wesley Clark. He is extraordinarilly intelligent, articulate, he has "execuitive" experiance and isn't a "Washington" insider. He brings support to the issue of national sec
