I have never seen the damage go down but I have seen it go ridiculously high for no reason. One of my heroes when equipped with a wand was shelling out several hundred damage. I agree that the buff display is a nightmare. After a few buffs it seems to overlap and looks terrible. I have also had issues with buffs disappearing without a dispel. Want some really nifty hero bugs? Summon your hero back to a town that has a full compliment of troops. Sometimes the hero ends up outside the town, sometimes in the water off the map and sometimes it dupes the hero with same gear and level with no buffs. I love this game immensely and cannot wait for a Patch to come through that fixes all the crazy issues and bugs.
Multi-Plane Multi Sorcerer Just wanted to reach out to anyone who has competed against 7 other wizards with all 8 planes.... What was you win condition? Did you cast spell of Domination? If not, how many active armies did you have to conquer all the planes? Currently I have several units (draconians with flight and magic spirits) scouting out the lands to provide enemy camp locations and 3 armies tearing up different planes. How fast do enemies expand and build new cities? Not sure that 3 armies is enough to destroy the opposition before they have time to rebuild. Thoughts?
I am wondering if they could add an option of win condition. Like conquest only or does the enemy ever try to use that spell at all?
I hope the AI does, otherwise it'd be a real shame. I lost many times in MoM to a wizard casting the Spell of Mastery.
Brutal bug So I have about 10 hours in in this 8 plane, 7 Sorcerer Warlock level game and now the game is messed. When I attempt to load my saved game, the blue bar stays on the bottom, the loading screen continuously changes text, but I'm sactually on the battlefield , I just can't see anything. I know this because some of the icons appear in the bottom left. Anyone had this issue or know what I can do!? I'm of sound mind to just get a refund on the entire 50$+ purchase if I can't resolve this, spent too much time on this game for this to happen
Me too, but I'm play playing through with all races on 2nd easiest difficulty before making it harder. I haven't had an enemy cast it yet. I don't know if they try to in a harder difficulty.
I thought everything was $12.99 base plus $19.99 DLC. That's $33. Is there stuff not included in the DLC?
My win condition was "I'm sure I'm going to win now." That's one of the reasons I'd like some sort of overview of how the AI is doing. I'd like specifics on the AI - like casting a spell, or amount of manna - to make the spells messing with the AI on a strategic level more fun. Mana Burn and Negligence, for example, don't strike me as nearly as much fun as they'd be if we saw the AI's mana or gold reduced. I was winning that game because of the Superhero strategy. ATM I'm experimenting with a No-Supers protocol. I think the heroes are a hoot, but I don't enjoy it when they start lone-wolfing armies. My current rules: No Mundane Damage resistance items. No +Mana items. (!!! Though I did have fun, the first few times a 15th level wizard-hero soloed an army.) I'll likely nix Globe of Invulnerability and - though I hope not - Circle of Protection. But I've yet to really see the effect of the two rules I have. My goal is to make the heroes a powerful asset, but require a decent army to survive. Has anybody else been unimpressed with the hitting power of the missile-weapon using heroes? In my experience they have better survivability than a missile unit (once you invest some mana/levels), but poor damage. (I'm now wondering if there was a bug similar to the one I just noticed.)
$33 USD should be ~$42 CAD... Did you buy something aside from the "All DLC" pack? I'm considering which options to go in on, and was assuming all I needed was the $20 DLC bonanza.
Lickzy, on my iPad, so did a rough cut/paste from their forum... Post your bug reports here Hi, if you've found any bugs in the game - post them in this thread. We will take a look at it asap. When reporting a bug, try to be as descriptive as possible. What happened, when, what were your game settings etc. Post a screenshot if you have the ability. -------------------------------------------------------------------- You can also send us your saves. To do that, simply put a phrase "sendSaves" in the name of the save. You can attach other phrases to the name, provided it's seperated by "_", for example: xxx_sendSaves xxx_sendSaves_yyy sendSaves_xxx_yyy We'd appreaciate if you added a short explanation of what happened or at least who the save is from. IMPORTANT: sending your saved game will void actual saving! If you want to attach some more elaborate instruction to what happened, you can write us an e-mail thru our "contact us" section of the WI site: http://wastelands-interactive.com/
Thanks MintDragon, however, I can't rename the game save so I just deleted it right off my iPad. Get my refund and call it done. No sense spending a bunch of money on something full of game breaking bugs
You don't rename the save, you just add a new save as "sendSaves" and it send the games you have saved, but it seems it's too late for that.
With the current app store rate the amount to pay in CAD was 17.99$ for the base game and 27.99$ for the dlc. If youre in Quebec like me you add 15% tax to that. I can understand how you feel, if im not mistaken you cannot buy something you got refunded for in the future... I am positive that Wastelands will work out the bugs, they already fixed a lot so i think its just a matter of patience. I wont lie i do think the game is expensive considering the state its in, but i remind myself that this is an indie dev as well, they dont drive on gold like those AAA publishers. I sure hope my trust in them isnt misplaced I am still very positive so far.
Ah. Ok, so ~$50 CAD for those two is plausible, and there really isn't anything else to buy aside from the base game plus DLC pack. Good to know! As far as the state of the game goes, it could definitely use a polish patch or two, but I haven't experienced any game breaking bugs so I'm willing to give them time. I can barely handle the complexity of managing one plane, so I haven't had an overpowering urge to grab the DLC just yet, but I likely will if it looks like the polish is coming (because starving developers usually don't produce a good product). At the current price point, I am leery of paying up without evidence that the polish is coming, though. I can't see how anyone who was a fan of MoM could pass up the base game, though.
I am hesitant to buy the complete pack because the description says "includes all beginner DLC." Can the devs clarify if new DLC will or will not be part of the complete pack?
I hereby formally disclose that should I be stranded on that ever looming desert island with only one iPhone game to my name*, I can no longer assert sans hesitation that this selection would default to King of Dragon Pass. That's your fault. Here's to looking at you, Planar Conquest. * Obviously because I'd need the rest of my storage to Instagram beach pics and vids.
