Some time ago I was toying with the idea of combining the X1 -> X10 BECMI modules in a sort of adventure path, then, as can expected, limited time and imaginatio from my part stopped the project. ;) They would have to be adjusted so that every one would span 2 levels of character advancement...

Which is exactly what I'm saying. It's a software with bug. MAJOR bugs, IMHO. Bugs that causes it to crash, in some cases quite often and predictabily, by various accounts. I have no doubt that someone is fixing the bugs. I wold be quite surprised of the opposite. But I fail to see how this is...

This is a hyperbole of yours. Most professional people here (developers, IT techicians, softere architects...) are just saying: "by all our experience, this CB crappy". Which I agree, BTW. You might not agree, you might think it deserves your money or anything, of course. In any case, I think...

Windows Vista is a perfect comparison to the state of CB as presented now. Fortunately, we could keep Windows XP and go on with our business in my company, and we're only recently migrating to Seven... Microsoft has the de facto monopoly of OS software on retail computers. And even they could...

Ok, I admit I didn't meet anyone, but if there are people building characters that way, then it's ok to have something to support that feature. What I wanted to say is that CB starts in a sort of "walkthrough" mode: it asks "do you want to play a controller, a defender or what?". And then...

Being a professional developer, too, I have some comments regarding the design. The biggest thing I can see from a design standpoint is: why the hell do I have to choose defender/leader/striker/controller/all BEFORE choosing my class? Is there really anyone that thinks that way when building...

The biggest issue with the new CB? - It costs the same as the old one. * - It does less than the old. Quite simple. * Actually it costs more, on average. If I only was interested in PHB/DMG/MM I and didn't care for rule updates or other books, I could just subscribe for a month, download...

Of course I don't have to. And I won't do it. And when I say "expected" to pay, I mean that since they provide the software on a license basis, well they of course "expect" me to pay for it. There's no doubt that those who pay do so willingly. I don't think I'm better or smarter than anyone...

Which seems to be EXACTLY what I said. They expect me to pay for an unfinished piece of software.

So, they expect me to pay for a demo??? Well, sorry, if they want people to stress test their software, they'd better give accounts for free for a couple of months. They don't even need to hand free accounts to anybody. They could have an invitation system or something like that. Then go live...

I never assumed CB to be a replacement for the book. In facts, I own the mayority of 4E books out there. Still, 20 characters for account is utterly ridiculous! It would be ridiculous a low number for a demo software. I don't really understand how they can actually think to enforce such a...

I think one of the problems of rituals, other than the ones mentioned, was that they were few and had nearly no support Compare with skill challenges, another new concept in D&D 4E. Nearly every month in Dragon/Dungeon Magazines there is an article on them, explaining techiques, giving...

Probably it was a daily. You should have taken an extended rest. Boom cha boom!!!

Personally, I have no problems with martial arts in a fantasy world. With all the magic, strange creatures and plane hopping around, having Asian clichées next to European it's no stranger that having nobody discover fire weapons. that said, I always liked how monks were represented in old...

Yes I know, but hopes are low. The CB is developed with Silverlight 4, while Moonlight is Silverlight 2 fully compliant and Silverlight 3 as beta.

Not happy at all. First, I'm really mad at having people say that those who sign up for a month every year and get the whole bunch of stuff instead of subscibing every month are "pirates", "without honor" or "abusing the system". Sirs, that'x exactly what I've been doing until now, and I feel...

I'd personally like to see more adventures devoted to a setting than generic supplements. As other people said, I buy published stuff because I don't have the time to come up with adventures from scratch on my own. I feel a lot more comfortable in picking up a module, customize stuff, change...

The issue I see in some critics here is that it's not a matter of "what could improve the product" but more "what I would have liked the product to be". If I look at a motorbike and say "well, I think it would be better if it had four wheels, could carry five people and maybe be covered", I...

What I don't really like is the automatic toggle feature of the right side menus. When I'm on Content Calendar page, for example, only one of Calendar Links / Quick Links / Tool Box can be open at a time. I'd like to be able to choose which and how many menus to keep open. I hate to search in...

Rumors say that WotC's will include a disclaimer sticker now on products: WARNING! Cover illustration for presentation purposes only. Actual classes and races inside might differ.
