  1. potassium allone will make your tongue blow up, potassium salt is fine. what's the problem whith licking Helium?
  2. it could have been because of the follwers too.
  3. you cannot give that guarantee, you can only speak for your taste. I can't see why you should try to change the mind of someone who clearly wants to try the game differently. You rightly warned that a lot of PvP players would consider it a cheat, but all this animosity towards Atrik - who just provided the OP with exactly what they asked - is unjustified.
  4. I'm not convinced at all. Manor Lords looks incredible for many reasons, but in terms of combat strategy, this video doesn't really say anything interesting to me.
  5. the game is better at lower pop imho.
  6. like what? every statistic has its graph, personally I only look that. There you can see peak and end values as well as the whole history. I second that. fgod mod had a nice feature on this matter (currently discontinued).
  7. it could start as a mp-compatible mod like boonGUI. A mod could even save the whole history of kills of each unit and display that.
  8. this whole proto-indo-european mythology thing is pretty interesting. I wander how do they know that before the many myths similar to each other, there was a "common ancestor", instead of just maybe assume a myth spread from people to people in more recent times.
  9. is this a problem? one can look up any name, not just the ones belonging to a ruler. anyone having had an attested name is potentially interesting to a curious player. I wonder if there are any civs for which we couldn't come up with 8 names that we know they were given to just anyone minimally interesting.
  10. submit the patch or make a mod. if the change creates a requirement for civs to have at least 8 ruler names, that's a new requirement codewise and it should be made clear.
  11. I liked this video quite a lot. Maybe pvp onboarding is the true weak spot of RTS. I also liked his whole onboarding video, the idea that multitasking is the core skill of RTS whole genre is interesting, and the sections about build orders and strategy were good too.
  12. there was never a tide change. just bad balancing. if competitive players complain about a feature, making that feature optional doesn't change a thing for such competitive players (they'll just work around the change trough shortcuts or whatever), but it does disrupt the game experience for newbes and give them a bad impression of what the game is like when you learn how to optimize your performance.
  13. acyually, I was thinking about something focused on the community mod because it could be merged to a27 and then the community mod would become the standard for pvp games.
  14. time ago, I suggested that a massage would pop up every time someone with an outdated community mod joined the lobby. can you do that? the latest version to the mod could be retrieved with a web request.
  15. If that's the case, I would try, if possible, to just disallow audio captchas. I don't imagine many visually impaired people to be interested in a game like 0AD.
  16. keep bulding arrows random is my two cents. you fixed something that wasn't broken.
  17. quite too early for worrying. but in fact I guess the champion units captcha would be a problem for people who look for help because they can't install the game, for instance. too bad, it was a fun idea.
  18. about captchas, something like "which of these is a champion unit" would really work better than anything else, I'm not joking. It's a test too challenging for any AI not spefically trained for it, only thing to worry about would be if we want out the humans who can't solve it as well.
