Why do only 25% of people who voted on the poll play FtF?

Post by Dacyn »

Since only 14% of people on the original poll on this gave a reason...

[1]played through to the end.
[2]choose the first option which applies to you.

3 reasons - 'No, i hate drakes', no 'No, i hate the plot (and not only because it contains drakes)', and 'No, its unbalanced'.

(yes, i did play it once, just to see how good it was... i though it was unbalanced and the plot was boring.. but i wouldn't play it again even if those weren't true because i detest drakes).
For I am Turin Turambar - Master of Doom, by doom mastered. On permanent Wesbreak. Will not respond to private messages. Sorry!
And I hate stupid people.

Personally I'd play it if I had the time, but unfortunately I don't :( most of my precious little time is spent working on the engine. Actually I haven't played any of the Wesnoth campaigns through from start to finish, and I haven't even played past half way in anything other than Heir to the Throne.

Well, as inspiration I managed to get your Rock Lobster, erm Lobber in. . . I hope they come together well. It sounds like there is movement on the goblin front, I'd love for .8.5 to be the release where the drakes eat the critics :)

I'm simply waiting for the new Drakes. And translating TRoW, which is a full-time job (greetings to Shade ;-)

Cool! However you haven't put in a rocklobber.cfg unit file yet? Probably becuase people never got around to writing one. We were still arguing about whether it should be a level 2 or level 3 unit. I thought level 3, as a high level alternate to the troll warrior. But I suppose if it was level 2, it might be like the lancer, a alternate path that you couldn't upgrade, but gave you a ranged unit earlier on.

No.

No. The Rock Lobber .cfg should be in CVS. I used the .cfg from the unit thread, but upped it's cost (To match the lv. 2 troll) and fixed the case of the references to images. . . If there is a problem it can be changed. :)
