  1. Ships being unable to ram, unable to know if you're being attacked, missing Factions. These aren't balance issues. They're more gameplay-related issues. Anyway, people here can differentiate between the Complaints that Deserve Sympathy and the Complaints that are Plain Trolling. Posts that assume the latter just insults the admins' intelligence and are easy to dismiss. Instead of just complaining, why not join the posts where people are actually trying to solve them? You know... Battle Sounds, Game Balance, etc. are being talked about just before you posted here... which makes me think that you just cobbled together a rushed set of complaints based on the Forum Topics.
  2. Ibex 1 - I'm trying to imagine it with the Battle Sounds, and this one doesn't seem to create unnecessary dissonance. The Shells sound like farts to me.
  3. You have the player experience, so I can take that into account. But I think the Towers serve more of as Offensive Siege buildings. It's the Tower for the Offensive Base Crawlers. And besides, I don't think you can't get them by turtling anyway (since they're City-Phase buildings).
  4. That's indeed rare of you @Sundiata. I was already expecting you calling it out the moment it was posted in the Forums. I was honestly cowering under my blanket, hoping that you'd go easy on it.
  5. Something tells me that borg- prefers Micro-bullying his opponents to death. This is an example of Advanced Micro + Strategy > Super Clicks Per Second Micro.
  6. I'm still kinda curious as to what the Banned Factions were.
  7. The OP's rant is valid. I happen to support another snail-speed development game, but I have given up hope ever receiving it since I've become too old for it. I can't say the same for 0 A.D, but sniec's statements are a very friendly slap. I felt the stung when he felt sorry for the devs and fans because it might still be an Alpha after three more generations. TLDR He doesn't like the game, but he wants it to succeed (get past Alpha) soon... which won't seem to happen.
  8. I tried to find this person's comment, but to no avail. But what IS the devs' current stance on Optimization?
  9. P.S. ffm vs littlegirlbeatyou is the only game that isn't listed here.
  10. Woah! Hold up. I wanna catch up to things, but I'm getting confused. What's Week 0 (Test Week)? May I request that the banned Civs be also indicated?
  11. I never noticed that "Civil War" is an oxymoron.
  12. lol - They look like they're too ashamed to show their faces.
  13. If we're gonna get super technical "Free" and "Open Source" actually mean the same thing... it's just the connotation of the word "Free" that is often misunderstood by the majority. I'm personally using the term "Freedomware" for such things.
  14. I've seen it more like this: FLOSS (Free/Libre and Open Source Software)
  15. I love it! Now I'm torn between "Neat & Clean" vs. "Using the Empty Space"... a pair of helmets maybe?
  16. Victory Animation Feels better than letting the victor control his units after the game (but of course, that's more on the programming side).
  17. With months going by, I assume the question was answered when the poster did a little exploring with the game. He just didn't bother commenting it here.
  18. Offensive Towers. It works for my playstyle.
  19. Fans just won't let you get away with the tiniest of details.
  20. He said AoE in the video, but wrote 0 A.D. in the title. It's obvious to me which game he likes more.
  21. "Attacks Per Second" - That's the best I can come up with, but it's still too wordy. wow's suggestion of "Improves Attack Speed by n%" works better.
  22. Nah, it's more like Tweaking / Updating it. The images on the OP no longer represent what we have today... especially the Celts (I don't know if they're the Gauls or the Britons because they used the same set of assets back then). Anyway, I no longer have anything to say with the general layout of the body. It's good. (If I were to make an arbitrary complaint, it's TOO good... it looks more like a travel brochure than a flyer for a game). Now, I think that the Twitter and Facebook links (I would like to add the Youtube one as well) should be placed close together as a column instead of trying to balance the whole thing out. Here's my awful attempt at trying to accomplish that: On the lowercase vs. uppercase, I fall into the lowercase camp. I don't want to be overwhelmed with too much "screaming" text. But then again, what I see as a softcopy sometimes doesn't have the same effect when I see it as printed.
  23. I kinda miss the "History is Yours for the Taking" part... even if you argue that it'd be cheesy nowadays. The new Britons' image looks depressing compared to the old Celtic one, which is more lively looking. I find the Ptolemies Image as the most captivating part. I can almost feel the realism... as if it's a snapshot from a movie or something.
