Anime Dominions 4 Codex Noober PBEM

Soon...

 

[JohnTheRevelator]

Damn, I missed it. Do a write up or something at least guys.

 

[CrimsonAngel]

I will write some stuff when ever it starts

Aran map is big enough to be played with up to 10 players. I increased max players up to 7, hop in. Since we're still waiting for Muty, anyway.

 

[JohnTheRevelator]

Cool, I need to do refresher though, haven't touch this game in like year or whatever, not that I was ever any good at it. Don't hold it up for me but if I'll manage to get my strategy roughly planned on time I'd want to take Bandar.

 

[Norfleet]

What's this I hear about the game being a DRM shitfest now? I haven't been in the Dominions series since 2, where I terrorized the shit out of the place and pretty much everything they changed in 3 was aimed at me.

Dunno what you're talking about. Digital Rights Management? It's just plain standard Steam. You may also get it on Desura.

I'd terrorize the shit of Dominions too if I had thousands of gems by turn 20

 

[Norfleet]

Haha, yeah, that. I actually have no idea how that happened, apparently while I was shuffling resources around, I blew out a register. Game wasn't nearly as polished back then. Next turn I my resources were a complete scramble. Naturally, if anything calamitous or not befalls you, you shut up about it, lest it reveal some kind of weakness to your enemies, since the rule was that the show must go on. Good stuff, though.

Eww, Steam. Not touching that spyware. What's this Desura thing?

Steam for hipsters. You would not have heard of it.

 

[Norfleet]

So, also-spyware, or not-spyware?

 

[Grimwulf]

It was originally sold on Desura, and you can still buy it there. It is usually cheaper to get it on Steam sales, but if you're that principled...

You can also grab it elsewhere, but then no pbem for you. Playing any kind of mp with pirated version is next-to-impossible.

Calling a unrepentant cheater *principled*

You can buy it on Gamersgate also, methinks it works with direct download:

Plus the CD-Key works also on Steam, and funnily enough Dom4 and CoE3 lack "proper" Steam integration. The last time I checked you could start them without the Steam overlay.

Then, shitty jokes aside, it would be interesting to see a veteran of Dom2 joining our little Noob-fests.

 

[Norfleet]

Calling a unrepentant cheater *principled*

Bah, I never CHEAT. I merely exploited the hell out of things! Exploiting is a perfectly legitimate of the game code! Oddly enough, that particular case happened without me doing anything at all, I was just like "What the fuck...".

I like what I hear so far, no Steam shite on my computers, but $35 is an awfully outlandish pricetag. Is this a physical box that I have to receive? I cannot accept physical items from the Internet for security reasons.

 

[Muty]

The game will start automatically, once hoverdog and Muty send their Pretender files.

Sorry guys it totally went out of my mind. I'm creating pretender right now and I'll submit it promptly.

Last post I'll waste on this. You can directly download without clients both from Desura and Gamersgate. I don't even think that a physical copy of Dom4 even exists anymore.

(Under the section: "Downloading without a Desura client")

At 28 € it's kinda expensive, but always better than the 50 or so pricetag Dom3 had. Steam has often sales, the others rarely. I got my key from Desura for 15 € a while back.

 

[hoverdog]

JohnTheRevelator you still up?

 

[JohnTheRevelator]

Start without me.

 

[hoverdog]
