Build our own castles

[Wolfentir]

Honestly, that is one thing that this game needs.

Remember how popular Stronghold series was? It wasn't popular cause it had great RTS combat, because AI was so challenging, because RTS combat was so tactical. It was popular because you could design and build your own castles and see how they perform when attacked.

Is there any way this could be implemented in DoF?

I have NO idea at all in which way Stronghold had an Good KI and or good Tactical Gameplay

But I agree with the need of being able to Construct your Own Castles

That's what I'm implying, Stronghold didn't have good tactical combat, it was the castle building that made it popular. That is what DOF needs.


@Gruber Yeah man, at the moment these forums are dying under overload of new posts and it's very hard to sort through all these new topics. I guess my new topic is really cluttering the boards.

new posts? overload? you must be joking..theres barely any activity in the forums save for like..5-10 people.

Dof isn't stronghold. Keep that in mind.

the one thing dof needs for me!! is better unit control and animation! when you click them in a direction they just move in that direction exactly how they are on the screen ! they dont wheel round corners like they should do as they do in all other much older lesser games!! instead they just block move its not very realistic and feels cheap. the war side of the game is the most important aspect as its how we complete quests! its also the fun side of the game !! so they need to sort that before they even concider letting us build our own castles.

as it stands the game feels just a tiny bit better than a browser game but looks fantastic. alot more work is needed on the ui and controls and the genral feel and animation of the game engine. other than that good work guys im impressed with what the game could be.

one more thing i think would be good!! on the online world map!! it should be an mmo but its not! i want to see other peoples castles there and be able to visit them trade with them, or genrally spy on them for an attack.. this whole match making thing is a bit crap in all honesty. especially the 20 cap and 200 army str issue im having. i can make an army of 20 units and the str be around 350 and it says no suitable armys found. but if i reduce the armsy str to 205 or so it starts finding matches. why is that!!! ???
