I know you guys are big fans of Eye of the Beholder. This game uses a very similar way of attacking by clicking each character portrait to have them attack. Eye of the Beholder worked very much the same way. It was good but by the time Eye 3 came out. They made it so you had one button that you clicked so the melee characters would all attack at the same time. This helped to minimize the need to go through each characters attack so you didn’t have to click so much. I was wondering and kind of hoping that this game will have a button that will also make all characters attack at the same time.

Spell attacks would not be a part of this attack and would still need to be manually used.

Can a dev comment on this please?

Thanks,

I'm not a dev, but I can say that the fights are not SO mechanic that they could be trivialized to an "attack all" button.. there's plenty of stuff you may want to do while fighting, including swapping weapons, switching from arrows to throwables, using potions, etc.

Preorder the game to laptop. I was planning to use keyboard + touchpad.
Any ideas how well this game works with touchpad versus normal mouse?

Might be time to buy wireless mouse (cables are nono, due to cable loving cats)

I recommend you use a mouse because left/right click does a different action on the attack buttons.

Yes thank you. Time to buy a mouse.

But first Ill need to check if the game works with my laptop. If not its time to buy new laptop .

Game already bought, but no problem, the amount of money (under 10 euros) spend to the game was so small-> If the game (shell shrader problems?) doesnt work, I dont want my money back. Ill wait til I get new laptop (old one is 2½ years).

Well the guys are seeing if there is anything they can do to get the game working on older laptops, so fingers crossed.

Daniel.

Well atleast the hardware test went through, got thtat "Congratulations all tests passed" information .
My laptop is Acer Aspire 7535G 17" Amd Athlon 64 X2 processor Ql 65 (2,1 GHz), 4GB memory, Ati Mobility Radeon HD 4570.

So to the mouse shop
