I have a Question
Sins Forums
Is or will there ever be a story driven or mission based campain and if so when or where is it on gonna avalible.
This would be a question best asked of IronClad, as they are the Developers. You can contact them at [email protected]
They are planning on a campaign. It might even be in development now, who knows! But they won't say when we can expect it.
Campaign has been requested since the release, (maybe even before), so i'm pretty confident we'll get one at some time 
But sins works pretty well without one, too.
They are not going to release for basic....probably for one of the expansions
If you'd come play online multiplayer (the Ironclad Online button) you might find that you're so well entertained by the challenge of playing against other real human opponents that you forget about single player campaigns.
Some of us have no desire to play online. Online players mostly want instant gradification of an online win. Single player gamers on the other hand play for the experience and don't want to rush our epic battles.
But don't you think single players run the risk of getting bored playing against the predictable AI? Also, wouldn't it be more satisfying to know that you took down a worthwhile opponent (a human intelligence)? Online multiplayer is incalculably more challenging and intense than single player. Come try it sometime.
*looks at how long he's been here* 
I've been here a few years too... but Anny haven't you been here before Stardock? lol....
Well human and intelligence don't always come hand in hand....plus I find the hard Ai more than challeging enough.
Maybe the first part of that sentence pertains more to me than my fellow gamer......... 
OK, we'll take your word for it. Anyway, when you feel more comfortable about the game, why not come check out the online action or at least log onto ICO just to chat with other Sins players? You could always play humans v. AI games, and there's some demand for that, and that would allow you to enjoy having human teammates and to chat with them and to try to work as a team.
IMO the game is best when it's a team of humans working against a smart enemy, doesn't matter to me if it's ai or humans. Just so long as the fight is fun and rough.
mh I never played the stand alone Galactic Civilization II Campains, but I liked the integrated story in Master Of Orion II. So if they combine the random maps with story elements (like advent have to find clues and a way back to their homeworld and then taking revenge in a big battle - vasari have to find their battlestar-'earth' or fight against the dangeorous followers who hits their planet randomly from somewhere out of phasespace - and Tec go boldly where no man has been before to found the galactic federation (perhaps using the new diplomacy options assumed to be in the second expansion and treaties with smaller races like in GC II)). I also miss some video sequences inside Sins to give it some flavor (like special events (first colonized ice planet), random event movies, different ending movies, and animated and speaking diplomats... like in GC II). If only in single player mode, movies wouldn't stop the game, because it simply could pause - playback the movie - and then continues - while creating the overall feeling of beeing connected with the sins universe. With all the sold sins copies, they should have a plenty big budget now to update the multimedia side of sins in an expansion.
Depends on the time of day. There are plenty of people on in the afternoons EST.
As far as capaign goes, it's been said that if they feel they can't do it how they want to do it, they won't do it. Simply strinign a few missions along does not hold over very well for an all encompasing game liek Sins, and they don't wish to cheese it.
You`ve almost sold me. I`m not afraid of experienced player`s, Just pre-teen`s who call me a fag and cheater after every defeat. I don`t have a alot of time to play sin`s. I like to get into the atmospherte that SP provide`s. If I could meet a good, Mature group. I`d definetly be interested in giving it a try. The only MP game I`ve ever liked was Starfleet Command 2. The tactical combat was a blast. It had a great community too. Sins has a great group of people on this forum too, Maybe we can work out a game of MP.
The claims about how name-calling and anti-social behavior are rampant are seriously overblown.
I believe you. I think I was stereotyping the MP communtiy with past experience`s. I should not have posted that.
EDIT
After reading this post, I`m rethinking the above.
Perhaps, however it has been my experience that such things do generally happen. I'm afraid I've had quite enough of teenagers, foul mouthed idiots fueled by their anonymous status and their 'tea bagging' antics in the likes of Halo and UT2K4 and various others I've tried to even bother with the online button in Sins.. or any other game for that matter.
good thing about teabagging.... they're out in the open pressing the crouch button like an idiot while ive already respawned and am already zooming a sniper rifle in on that large, puberty signalling pimple above their right eye.... 
Take a person, put him in a competition where he plays a game next to a person with an audience. The loser will shake the hand of the winner and walk away.
Take the same person, put him on the internet behind his PC and one or more of the following will occur:
He will lose advantage early with an early mistake and just quit the game to start a new one, after all why should he care?
He will be in a position where the loss is inevitable but rather than surrender he will try to be as annoying as humanly possible in the hope that he will have got his revenge for losing or the other person will give up and give him the win.
He will use an exploit or some ultimate game winning strategy over and over again to annihilate 'noobs'.
He'll goad and use swear words and get pleasure out of seeing visible anger in the opponents responses.
He will belittle and revel in success by telling the opponent how stupid or bad he is.
He will play gracefully and say gg when it is over in the face of victory or defeat...
Even if the last one occurs 80% of the time the 20% of games involving the sociapaths and shadenfrauds can be so frustrating for some that it's just not worth it.
Back on topic though, I'm not going to scream against a campaign as it seems a lot of people would like to see it, I just think concentration on improveing large single player games should be a priority. Running a 10 player game with 9 AI is a bit pointless atm. Games quickly turn to boring to watch as the special effects all stop working and the AI turns a bit retarded from sort of mid game onwards.
What sort of annoying do you mean? I suck at mp because I'm a newb and therefore I lose a lot, but believe me when I say that if I'm going to lose, I like going down amidst a fiery ball of misiles and explosions. I will never surrender, but I do not do it to be annoying.
Besides, I'm still a newb, what would you have me do? Quit?
Hmmm. Looks like you don't like that...
What I do not accept is being a chat ass****, insulting people and stuff just because they are winning and you are not. That I hate, and if that is the problem I agree with you. I value respect highly.
