I have no clue if it is me or if nobody else can build anything, I select the building, click on the hex, but nothing happens.

Anyone else having this issue?

Regards,

And I was wondering if this game will be relatively bug free. Oh well, I hope it gets fixed in time for the Xmas sale2013

Got up to date vga drivers?

Everything is as updated as they can be.
Verified the cache.
Now I'm redownloading the demo.

I have nothing missing on an ATI 6850 with Catalyst 12.4 on Windows 7 x64.

I'm not sure where the tutorial videos are meant to be. If you mean on the advisor screens that come up (with the Sean Connery soundalike) they actually seem to be just screenshots you are missing rather than video.

I also don't seem to have any problems building anything.

I realise this doesn't exactly help anyone that does have a problem!

I have a ATI 4650 with the latest Catalyst drivers.
Also, I have a single core CPU... but I don't see why that would cause the game to omit pictures for load screens or buttons or advisor screens.

Redownloaded with no difference, might just be my computer after all.

With paradox as the publisher, its not even going to be close to bug free on release. See Sword of the Stars 2 & Gettysburg: Armored Warfare... It's better not to buy it on release. But a bit later on

I am playing the beta and I don't have any of the issues mentioned here. Give them some time to fix the demo, and try again. The final release is far from buggy as Gettysburg and Sword of the Stars II. I have had 1 so far that made me cast a firestorm over my own army, that was annoying.

Okay, downloaded the demo.
1st Start: Stuck at first logo for like, seven minutes, closed.
2nd Start: Crash on completing all intro vids, before seeing any menu.
3rd Start (Safemode): Same as 2nd Start.

Soo... I'll wait, or I'll pass. Hopefully they patch the demo too. For now, there's too many other good games coming out for me to care. (Even though I really love turn-based strategy and usually am quite a fan of Paradox Interactive. Their releases may have some bugs, usually, but they are quite good in picking whose games to publish.)

Only bug I've had was freezing and related crash on the Royal Advisor hint screens. Once I turned those off, I was fine.

I've played the beta for many hours with ATI card and no issues, maybe the beta is newer than the demo?

Played demo for 3-4 hours no crash or bugs i noticed. Alt tabbed out a ton... played Star craft 2 for 2 hours while this game was in background running (thanks no save function).

Running on I7 2500k, 8 gigs ram, 460GTX, win 7 64bit.

assuming you guys tried the obvious... run the exe with admin rights, compatibility mode with various settings? (i know some of you did) but recheck cache, re download demo, restart steam, update drivers.

GL - game is worth a try if you can.

Zero issues for me and I'm running on an antiquated rig running XP with an Nvidia 9500 GPU.

The only problem I've had is trying to cast spells. I can scroll down to the spells but it jumps back up to the top before I can choose the one I want. I'm playing the beta version on an A6 lappy. I enjoy it a lot just wish it was a little cheaper.

With regards to not being able to build things, if you select a building then right click, it won't let you reselect that building nor build it. You have to select another one first (if possible) or exit the city screen and go back in. Not sure if that's the OP's issue?
