Hey guys,



In prevision of the stream on Thursday of this week, we're opening this thread to let you ask any questions you might have about Endless Legend and its content updates!



Ask away!









EDIT: shameful copy-paste! I've fixed the "typo". lol

Is it DotE or EL ? ^^

Considering the forum and the logo, I'm pretty sure it's EL. The Frog must be tired lol

So secondly, could we, in a near future, pay for having the Mezrai's faction without buying DotE ? And Firstly, hello all!



Also, I saw you're about to release some music ( IMO that makes sense considering the incredible work of FlybyNo, can't wait for it! ) quests, improved IA, but do you plan to publish another consequent add-on ? And if you do so, what kind of content could you add (Factions, gameplay mechanics, gameplay elements as new ressources/buildings...) ? I know there a lot of "if" but... If you release a new add on on Endless Legend, would it be after Endless Space 2 release?



I didn't play to Shadows yet but it's just a matter of time, I just have discovered your games 2 weeks ago and I'm very impressed by your work! Hope you will continue like that and soryy for my terrible english



Bisous à vous

Hello! My questions:



All my questions are related to Endless Legend:



New mod tools:



For those who have not participated ..

Could you describe the process of the closed beta for the new mod tools?

Does the community responded well?

What is the overall rating of Amplitude on this topic?

Will we have a tutorial for creating maps and the other features?

Will you continue to develop more tools to modding the game?



The balance forum:



The balance changes collected in the forum will be included in the latest patch?

Could you tell us some examples of changes that you are going to apply?

You guys received a totally unexpected solicitude in the forum?

What is the overall assessment of the results achieved?



AI changes:



What we can expect from the improved artificial intelligence?

You think that will satisfy the fans who have been calling for improvements for a while?

What problems and difficulties that emerged during the AI development?

We can expect to continue being worked on the issue?



Future content:



Will we have more big expansions/DLC for Endless Legend?

What can we expect from now for Endless Legend?



And.. The most important question:



3Fallout 1/2 or Fallout 3/4?? (You can use the New Vegas wildcard)



Thanks, stay strong Amplitude.

Second this!

1.With Endless Space 2 now being in development, I was wondering if, upon launch, there were plans to have special added content available for those who own EL, and DotE. (And, also, whether there were plans to have special additional content in EL and DotE for those who buy ES2?)



2.Since we all know that, if a woodchuck could chuck wood, a woodchuck would chuck as much wood as a woodchuck could chuck, I was just wondering how much wood each member of the team thought a woodchuck would chuck. lol



3. What is something you've really wanted to put in EL but, for one reason or another, couldn't and probably won't be able to?



4. If a Necrophage hero and a Craver hero were to fight 1 on 1, who would win?

What if the two societies went to war with one another (and the cravers had no space ships?)

What if the two societies went to war with one another (and the necrophages had spaceships?)



5. Before coming to the surface of Auriga, did the vaulters do much trading and/or warring with the delvers?



6. If you could sit down and have a dinner with any of the faction leaders, who would you have dinner with and why?



7. With endless Space 2 in development, I have to ask. According to the canon lore you guys are building for that game, what happened on Auriga? Who got on the spaceship?

OR, if that's too spoilery, What exactly happened in ES1 that lead to the events of DotE and EL?

I second these topics.

What is the current status of the game ?

What are the biggest chanllenges Amplitude sees with the game ?

What can we expect in future updates ?

What can we expect in terms of DLC, expansions, add-ons ?

What kind of UI enhancements does Amplitude have in mind ?



Thanks ^^

This is 5pm CET now?

Yeah, this was all my fault, sorry for messing it up!

Hi all! Thanks for tuning in



We did prepare responses to all these questions, since a few technical issues held us up, we didn't have time to reply to everything.



Here are the notes I took down

This was mentioned in the stream, and there are even more details in the patch notes. In a nutshell the AI should play better: better army management, better unit designs, better technology and improvement choices, better diplomatic negotiations.

Maverik wrote:

We believe so: the things we've tackled are those that were brought up in the feedback thread and elsewhere on the forums.

Maverik wrote:


What problems and difficulties that emerged during the AI development?

It's a big, complicated and heavily interdependent set of systems - we've had to tread very lightly when changing things, as each change could have potentially massive repercussions. For instance when we started pushing the Ardent Mages AI to use more pillars it meant a lot less dust for buying heroes... and vice-versa. Likewise investing more in retrofits means less for improvement buyouts. One can very easily sabotage the AI completely by pushing it a little too far in one direction at the expense of another.

This has been a big push, but there have always been a few AI fixes here and there when we update, and we'll keep doing so moving forward

Maverik wrote:

Maybe It'll depend on how the community responds.

Maverik wrote:

Well we need to take some time to gather feedback on the latest update before we decide where to go next with the game
