how much is the game finnised?

[MrEmjeR]

the game has to be called ad 0

there is BC but is there not such as AC(After Christ), srry but i don't know evrything about the english language.

[Justinian]

BC is AC in Latin:

Before Christ, from the Latin Ante Christum, an epoch based on the traditionally reckoned year of the conception or birth of Jesus of Nazareth.

[Apomonomenos]

Then what does AD stand for

After the begging of the Death of the Roman Empire (Since at around when it fell, most people were Christians, Orthodox and Roman Catholics. The Romans who were Orthodox simply mutinied and joined the barbarians).

[Fionn]

A.D.- Anno Domini. This means "in the year of our Lord". I love Latin.

Romans who were Orthodox turned out to be Byzantines.

[Apomonomenos]

Then it was some other christian religion, Arian Christian I think

[Mythos_Ruler]

Right. There were also the Gnostics, who the Orthodox and Catholics tried to wipe out.

[Apomonomenos]

OK, let's get back to topic.

[Justinian]

Two things,

One, W(hy)TF don't we use AC and AD?

And Two, I feel this topic (as relatively useless as it is, asking the Devs isn't really helping) should be an off-topic... topic.

[Mythos_Ruler]

BCE CE?

[Justinian]

No I mean stick to one freaking language,

Latin (AC and AD), English (CE and BCE) or freaking Christian English (Before Christ, After Death)

[MrEmjeR]

I think u can better stop talking about this

cuz the most got used BC

and ur right: this topic is useless!

[Apomonomenos]

Huh ?

[general]

Well yes, this topic is useless, now. Since this question has been answered already, if I am right. This topic is also more than one year old so you could expect that, someone would have answered the question which this topic was all about...

It'd be cool if the game was in Latin (learning it would make sense then 111)

[PhoenixDog]

It may not be finished yet, or close to it...But hey, at least we're still working on it =)

Have faith

The Roman buildings will be in Latin....

[Apomonomenos]

Actually, there is a game were you can press "~" to change all words to Latin, Glory of the Roman Empire. An RTS like none you've ever seen before. Trust me.

Never heard of it, I guess I should probably immerse myself more in the gaming community.

Ive seen some screenshots and it looks like a Caesar 4 ripoff

BTW guys please post a new screenshot

Edited February 9, 2009 by t i m a e u s

[Justinian]

Glory of the Roman Empire is a Caesar IV ripoff ripoff... It's really not that great.

Caesar 1/2/3 are good because instead of building houses... one by one, you simply make a zone, like in Simcity (not Societies, that thing just plain sucks like a hoover...), and watch them go... man go.

That's the main difference between the ripoffs and the Caesar series itself, or it was until Sierra decided to change the Traditional Gameplay mechanics.

Even if nothing is in Latin, a month post release there will be a mod doing it.

And Timaeus, they'll post a new one when they do it...

We are gonna space out the screenshots and other media releases so we can release multiple things at once in a media blitz. Probably every 2 or 3 months. The benefit of this is your appetite grows larger for more material and I can justify releasing a bunch of different stuff at once. So, for instance instead of 3 regular screenshots over a period of 2 or 3 months, every 2 or 3 months I can release a packet of media, like 2 or 3 screenshots telling a story, a small video, a piece of music, and a showcase on ModDB - all at once (I'm not saying every release will be so large, but it's a possibility). The other benefit is you are guaranteed to see something new if we space out the media releases more.

o my... i thought the date was close

that's why releasing has been so slow anyways looking forwards too the next one

The screen shots look great! Wonderful artwork....I agree
