Sweet.... Is Matrix going to carry this title? I would much rather by from Matrix. I don't much care for other company's DRM stuff.

Almost 100% certain they won't, since Paradox owns AGEOD now.



Titanwarrior89 -> RE: Vainglo, er, Pride of Nations demo is out! (5/27/2011 9:09:02 PM)

Did they buy them out?

Yes, December of 2009, they acquired Aegod.

Jim Cobb has written a preview of Pride of Nations. It was published on the Armchair General website yesterday: Link

If I wasn’t so busy playing Field of Glory and WitP:AE I’d probably give the PoN demo a try.



comte -> RE: Vainglo, er, Pride of Nations demo is out! (5/28/2011 8:28:03 PM)

Gave this a go the map lags terribly. There's a couple of bugs with random ethnic groups being in places they shouldn't but apparently this is fixed in the upcoming full game release. It needs some optimization.



Titanwarrior89 -> RE: Vainglo, er, Pride of Nations demo is out! (5/28/2011 9:35:50 PM)

Well I guess they will change.[:(]

The interface is too "busy" for my taste.....but that might change, after all I really despised the X-com demo the 1st time I played it and it became one of my favorite games.



jomni -> RE: Vainglo, er, Pride of Nations demo is out! (5/30/2011 2:27:23 AM)

Initial impressions report that, unlike Victoria, you have to do things youself.
Don't know if this is good or bad for players.  For me, I guess I just need to try it out.



Terminus -> RE: Vainglo, er, Pride of Nations demo is out! (5/30/2011 10:36:39 AM)

Oooh, micromanagement...



carnifex -> RE: Vainglo, er, Pride of Nations demo is out! (5/31/2011 5:56:21 PM)

Vainglory, yeah that really rolled right off the tongue, didn't it?

If you disable "Limit Map Loading" in the options, that should solve the lag problem.

I was playing around with the settings and figured this out [8D] It really does speed up the game I meant to post that here but got sidetracked.



jomni -> RE: Vainglo, er, Pride of Nations demo is out! (6/2/2011 2:00:52 AM)

At $20, it's a no brainer.



Terminus -> RE: Vainglo, er, Pride of Nations demo is out! (6/2/2011 3:07:54 PM)

I hope they'll stick to their promise to have it available on "all major download portals".

....Except Steam.




Terminus -> RE: Vainglo, er, Pride of Nations demo is out! (6/3/2011 8:25:49 AM)

AND Steam.

A very apt description for steam selection.

[sm=00000622.gif] Please no more steam debate needed.



Terminus -> RE: Vainglo, er, Pride of Nations demo is out! (6/3/2011 7:50:11 PM)

Then don't start one with comments like that.[8|]



Terminus -> RE: Vainglo, er, Pride of Nations demo is out! (6/6/2011 11:05:43 PM)

Well, the full game is out now. We shall see what we shall see...



caaraa -> RE: Vainglo, er, Pride of Nations demo is out! (6/7/2011 3:08:51 AM)

Thanks guys.

The game is very good. Only the map grafics could use more love no doubt. I got a review version from paradox and did a review in german language yesterday: http://www.7idgaming.de/content.php?89-Paradox-Interactive-Review-Pride-of-Nations



Terminus -> RE: Vainglo, er, Pride of Nations demo is out! (6/7/2011 3:34:01 PM)

I have no problem with the map, but I REALLY wish Paradox France (no such thing as AGEOD now) would hire somebody with a better command of written English to proofread game and manual. It takes away from my immersion, and it's so easy to solve.



Lützow -> RE: Vainglo, er, Pride of Nations demo is out! (6/7/2011 3:53:10 PM)

I consider the economy model as rather underwhelming. Was hoping for something like Victoria I.

This nonwithstanding I consider Pride of Nation to be one of the very few sophisticated historical strategy games on a GLOBAL scale. So far I put some hours in - and barely scratched the surface.

I'd wish Matrix also could sell it just to make PON more popular.

Fallschirmjager -> RE: Vainglo, er, Pride of Nations demo is out! (6/7/2011 10:16:24 PM)

Is there anything to recommend this over Victoria?



Vasquez -> RE: Vainglo, er, Pride of Nations demo is out! (6/7/2011 10:30:32 PM)

So far I like PoN far more than Vic 1 (never touched Vic 2). Esp the economic model makes more sence imo.



Terminus -> RE: Vainglo, er, Pride of Nations demo is out! (6/7/2011 10:31:06 PM)

I like the combat system. It's AGEOD's tried-and-tested model. The colonial system is also very interesting: you get tons and tons of options for exploring the blanks on the maps (interior of Africa, to pick an obvious example) and taking over areas for colonization.

I like it better than Victoria so far.



Terminus -> RE: Vainglo, er, Pride of Nations demo is out! (6/7/2011 10:35:56 PM)

Another very good thing is that this is a proper turn-based game, not the standard Paradox continuous nonsense.
