Is it just my impression that foxes are tougher than settlers in this game? Is there a way to check stats of units, even with a skill or smth.

Skinny, hungry, disease ridden settlers vs. foxes, I place my money on the foxes.:lol:

Playing the demo, and what I'm really missing is able to switch between characters by pressing on a hotkey. Like in IE games or in an RTS (after you'd assigned the groups there first). 1-5 or f1-f5, most likely. In IE games iirc, also the numbers after 6 (the last party member there) had uses, like 7 to select everyone, 8 to select partymembers 1-3, 9 for 4-6, or so.

Really hampering the sleekness of the gameplay to have to use the mouse to select characters.

Another, smaller UI quirk: when saving a game, the naming of the save should take input without requiring to click on the text box with mouse first.

I also noticed that. Also you cannot easily distribute loot from quick loot screen to specific characters. You have to click on another character first and then on loot you want to go to that character.

Also when inventory is open you can look at one type of items in it or another type but not both at same time.

Also the screens that have text descriptions for skills and such are way too small. I can only read about 4-5 lines of text before I need to scroll the text. Too much scrolling.

You are not supposed to play it in full screen right? Having a hard time reading the text. What is the ideal resolution if anyone know?

Not sure if it matters as the game scales to what ever the resolution is; at least to my knowledge anyway.

Whoo - I have game! No email, I just checked my account... :cool:

Now I'll just add it to the end of my backlog so I should get to play it some time next year.

Edit: It uses Mono (linux version)??! I am appalled. :obviously:

I'm a late Paypal backer. No account until they send an email with login details, and no email yet.

Sad times.

Still no sign of it on my SitS account page. Am I missing something, or just one of the last to be manually updated?

It just appeared on the account. No e-mails as of yet.

Speaking of which, try contacting them about it. I used Paypal as well and they set me up with an account immediately after they got the money. I did buy the game while we were exchanging e-mails so that probably sped things up a bit.

Just remember that they have over 1,000 backers and they're setting everyone up by hand.

Honestly, I bet if we just wait 6 hours we'll all get our keys and everything will be fine. Sending them impatient emails right now isn't going to help.

I have no account on the website, got my key personally via email.

So far I'm p. impressed, though there are some quirks that need fixing. Like why "Carrion God" option appears twice on the char creation?

Bester - If you haven't bought the game then I am willing to give you my copy. Major props to you and your wife on the work with the I.E mod. I can't pm you atm due to my account still pending approval herp derp! ^__^ *I played the demo and I don't think the game is for me so I would rather give it away to someone that will probably enjoy it.

Preorder was available on steam since weeks now, couldn't they send some keys before the 28 ? Why wait the very last day and email everyone manually like in medieval times...I like oldschool but not that oldschool.
