Oh god, I love the raven clan .. slow to build up, but a lot of fun if the game lasts.

Quoting: GuestI bought it and quickly refunded. To me it's kind of appalling that they would release it when it doesn't even start from steam without workarounds. I'll probably pick it up after they sort the issues though.

They fixed that within a day - that's actually a very good response. We have titles out there which never got patched up at all.

Ah, so they're fast in patching it up. That's good, shows the developer really cares.

Cool stuff!

Quoting: TcheyFrom what i've read and seen, it seems cute, but very shallow and quickly boring.

Not deep Civ-4X elements, basic RTS tools, poor buildings choice, unattractive Tech trees. It's doing less than Settlers, Warcraft, Civilization, Rise of Nations, without managing to find the right spot in between.

But, i didn't play it myself, i may be wrong.

It's certainly missing the depth of those others you mentioned, especially AoE, or Settlers (you can't really compare Civ to this). But it's all we got at the moment in that Genre. Some RTS are still in development, maybe we even get Earth Liberation (which itself has very mixed reviews) and Ashes of Singularity, but we'll see.

Quoting: NaughtyDeveloperDo the devs intend to bring the game to GOG?

Currently not, they rely on the Steam API for their multiplayer.

Yep, multiplayer works then too.

Quoting: elistomodify the run.sh to
LD_PRELOAD= LD_LIBRARY_PATH=linux linux/hl sdlboot.dat
than run
linux/run.sh

Holy shit. That makes even launching of steam possible. Now I'd be interested which damn library is fucking it up.
Good find, thanks! But that would .. basically mean that the delivered libs by the developer have issues...

or not sure if MP really works, but it looks like it in the lobby.

How about a lil' fight Liam? Let's give it a test run?

Yeah, a bit of a launch-mess there. But the game is great. I don't recommend it to the average user for the obvious reason of "not just launching of steam", but it's damn fun to play.

I hope the devs can fix that, shouldn't be too hard.

But there is another issue I'm more worried about. It's launching from steam with a segfault in sdl. That has nothing to do with the other issues. I'll be looking into that, hopefully the developer too, I personally didn't see anything being loaded which could cause that (I didn't see any steam native libs being accessed, and it loaded the sdl which the game delivered), but never say it can't be.

Till now I find the game (only campaign, didn't get it running multiplayer/steam yet) very entertaining. I'd say depending on your budget, it's certainly worth a buy.

I remember when we celebrated every game release on Linux. We've got a a bit critical about it.

For early access: The early access discount in my eyes is for people to test the game early on and give feedback about gameplay, balancing, dynamics, besides being beta-testers on a variety of hardware, saving or potentially saving quite some QA. They're risk investors, so they get a discount and can help shape the product. For me, that's a fair deal. I don't want it, so I pay a few bucks more. That's fine too I think.

Yeah, quite not there

Sad it does not work in steam directly yet, maybe the developer can do something about it. Meanwhile I play campaign and after that I'll try to fix it up with lsi if the developer didn't act.
