When the AI will be a bit more improved it'll be far better than the first one IMHO

OK i know we already had a topic about it a long time ago, but the game has envolved so much after all those pathces that it IMHO deserves a new one I just saw that Paradox has a weekend sale on Steam and that mean that all Paradox titles are at least 50% off (SOTS2 included ) So if anyone was waiting on a chance to get it cheap - here it is The game is stable and IMHO a lot of fun even currently, and Kerberos is still working hard on it (though Mecron mentioned that the next patch might be the all clear, but even after it they'l provide support for years as far as I know them).

I haven't followed Chivalry, but i have spent quite some time checking War of the roses (i don't know why, but i like Paradoxes forums ) and if anyone wants some more information about WoR: they did a live stream not long ago: -http://www.twitch.tv/paradoxinteractive/b/319842282 (first 30 minutes) -http://www.twitch.tv/paradoxinteractive/b/319847736 (another hour ) They are talking (and showing off) mostly custumization (the is a little bit missing between the two parts, since they had some trouble with the stream)

Some more suggestions -Mount and blade Warband -Mount and blade Napoleonic warfare (commander battles are simply awesome )

Thanks for the heads up mate Bought the gold bundle (though i think i prefare Men of war over CoH, but CoH is still a great game)

You can always retreat to the nearest healing stone (one level higher if needed), it'll heal wounds and poison (and revive any dead characters)

I guess its not what you are searching for, but i remember a game (made with RPG-maker) which hooked me for a LONG time - Vampires Dawn (though i think it's in German only!!, but freeware AFAIK http://www.vampiresdawn.org/downloads/). I think you would like it (if you speak german )

I haven't heared of this yet, but it seems like a must buy I still have an old boxed set of BG2 packed with TOB, but sadly some of the CDs are not working anymore

Take your time, you are doing a great job It will come when it'll be ready

Just when i came online the steam community get unavailable (just after i said hello in the chat - must have been me who crashed it ). Anyway i was later than i expected and still have some stuff to do this evening, i hope i will be able to make it next week

Aaaah, i won't be able to make it than... i won't have any internet access untill about an hour or two later... I'll check the steam community chat if you guys will still be online though

I guess you mean these two issues: -http://www.goldhawkinteractive.com/forums/showthread.php?988-v9-Ground-Combat-Invisible-Alien-Additional-Information. (invisible alien) -http://www.goldhawkinteractive.com/forums/showthread.php?962-v9.0-ground-combat-frozen-game-on-reaction-fire (game frozen after reaction fire)

Damn, people keep misunderstanding me when I mention this... I know its only alpha and the new AI wasn't implemented as planned, but for me the AI in v9 is now completely gone, whereas in v8.9 the aliens moved and performed reaction fire. Im assuming that this is a bug, and wondered if everybody is experiencing it or not. I haven't got much reaction fire ATM, but it did happen that at least some of them fired back (i am sure that the one who fired back was a guard, so maybe on the non-combatants doesn't react)

I hope this is worth a bug report In my latest game i triied a few long range shots with shotguns and pistols and surprisingly, despite the GUI saying that there is only 1% chance to hit, my soldiers did hit 4 out of 5 shots (all with 1% chance). So either i was really lucky or there is some minor bug with the accuracy of weapons.

A friend is currently working on making a settlement in hell Actually he said that the innitial demon wave wasn't even that hard to beat, though he keep loosing ido... eeeh dwarfs to one of the demonic races which explodes upon death. Pikeman have proven to be the most effective, but he currently trains as many archers as possible to deal with those exploding guys

Definatly 1993-2004. I got some really good memorys of that time (Diablo 2, Baldurs gate 2, Age of empires 2, Stronghold, Heroes of might and magic 3)

This (btw if you have a laptop you might need to hold the 'fn' button while you press the screenshot button - it depends on your keyboard). And to upload it on the forums you have to open the advanced option when writing a reply (you have an button with the caption "go advanced" right from the button "Post quick reply", or you will get automatically to the advanced view when you click "reply" or "reply with quote" under one of the existing posts). Under the area where you write your text to post you have "additional options", where you can find the "manage attachments" button. When you click it it wll open a popup where you have a button "add files" (upper right corner), which will open an interface with the button "select files". Than you search for your previously saved screenshot and when it is uploaded you click "done" in the popup i mentioned earlier. When you later submit you reply the screenshot should be attached to it (alternatively you could also upload the screens to a site for photo hosting (for example photobucket) and post the link to the uploaded picture here )

I know about this, but they didn't even open reaction fire (or was their 360 degree view removed untill we get the next iteration of the AI?, because in that case it might have happned that i always appeared behind them and that they didn't see my troops (though its a bit weired not noticing an amoured car which almost drives you over ))...

I got a screenshot of his position in this topic: http://www.goldhawkinteractive.com/forums/showthread.php?963-v9.0-ground-combat-Partly-invisible-stairs-on-farmland You can see him on the third attachment

In my first mission i first met some Sebillians, but they did not react on my soldiers (no reaction fire) and they did not seem to move (though i saw only 1 of them for 2 turns and at least that one didn't move during that time - btw the same alien which did not move was also the one with the sprite problem (turning into the other alien when shot) and he had a huge amount of health (i hit him 2 times with the assault rifle, 2 times with a shotgun and once with a sniper rifle before he died)). The second sebillian (is it supposed to be only 2 of them?) did not react on my tank (but i don't know if he would have moved since i killed him the same turn i spotted him - i had no problems with killing this one, he seemed to have normal health)

On a ground combat mission on the new farm lands i had a soldier beeing able to pass through a wall as you can see in the attached screenshots. When i ordered him to moved he passed through without any problems

I just had my first mission on the new farm tile and i noticed some issues with stairs inside some of the buidings. You can see it on the first (and third) attached screenshot, the second one shows when i tried to view the second level of the building with the weired stairs. I couldn't move my soldier up either. EDIT: ignore the upper part of the third screenshot, i was pasting one screen over another i had open in paint and missed that i failed a pasting

I can confirm this. If it maybe matters the Sebillian was turned away from my soldier (the alien looked in direction of the upper left corner of the map)

If we would decide for WOT, we either need only 2-3 or 13-15 players Since plattons for random games are maximal 3 players (if whoever makes the platoon has a premium acount - wiht standard its only 2 players; though since i will be running on premium account for quite some while i could make the paltoon) or we could try a junior tank company (tank tier are limited to 4, so even someone who just started could get some usefull tank rather quick), but here we need at least 13 IMHO. So i voted for L4D2 It will probably be easier to organise.

I will surely join the steam group (just did it while writing this - my steam name is the same nick as i use on this forum) BTW i have L4D2, Serious Sam (first and second) as shooters; SOTS2, Greed Corp and Frozen Synapse in terms of strategy and Magicka if you guys would be for some different kind of "action" game If i might add another suggestion, maybe some free to play game (i'm playing a lot of World of tanks lately - probably too much - but disclaimer WoT can get you addicted quite fast )
