Reply to Sins vs SupCom in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

what i want to added is that how can Sins and Sup Com be compared, the two games are like apples and oranges. Well for one thing, the maps in Sup Com, they are very mission based, and the entire map for each mission opens up gradually as you open achieved objectives. In Sins, everything is open to the players, so everything is fair. That in itself is a big differences, it involves are different type of strategies. Also, as a strategy game, Sup Com does not run very well with extremely high n

Reply to The Verdict is! in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

I think one of the game reviewer, probably either gamespot or IGN implied in their review that the reasons why so much of the 4x elements are lacking in Sins even though there are elements of 4x in the game are the following reason, the three races are at war, and hence there will be war and war and hence forget much about exploration. Well if one thinks about the background story for Sins, it makes sense.

Mopes is alright, Silvan is probably from Hong Kong, they have different sense of humour there, and it was not meant to come across the way you read it. I am from there myself, and translating chinese humour into english with all the culture nuances is a challenge at times. :D

Reply to For those who don't like the RTS aspect of Sins, an alternative... in Games Sins Forums

I wonder if the end turns in LE immortals will get freeze in late games. Paradox has stated that there can be as many as 5000 stars in a galaxy. I hope not. I saw recently on a wilki site dedicated to the upcoming game Spore, it says that there would be half a million/billion stars in the galaxy (within the game). I wonder if that is even practical or enjoyable for a player to have that many. way too much information to absorb and manage.

Reply to omigosh piracy in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

For all those of you who don't understand why in certain part of the world, people pirates things... Well my friend made a very sad but amusing observation, amusing depending on one's perspective. He said..in Europe, hackers and pirates crack and pirates software, movies, dvd, etc for fun and the challenge of just being able to do it. But in Asia, those same type of pirates and hackers do it to make a living. I have a friend who pirates software to the point he never

besides incurring economic peanlty and nerfing damages for superweapons, also, have a significant range reduction, maybe it can only fire two jumps away, or increase in range comes in increase in resource costs, each phase lane that it can fire over will cost 10000 in cash, 3000 in crystals and 5000 in metals.

Reply to Chris Taylor blames piracy for the decline of PC gaming in PC Gaming GalCiv2 Forums

I remember Bill Gates once complaint (before the release of Xbox 1), that it is hard to play pc games for many people because consumers require to install the game after the purchased. So he thinks playing pc games should be as simple as playing console games, pop the thing into your cd/dvd rom and then you can start playing. The thing is that why has not anyone come out with software that does just exactly that, i mean, the software program will turn a pc into some sort of console.

Reply to Chris Taylor blames piracy for the decline of PC gaming in PC Gaming GalCiv2 Forums

Is Chris serious about not able to pirate console games. Which century or planet is he living in still. Has he heard of something call an console emulator. Sooner or later, there will be an emulator for xbox 360, and also for PlayStation 3. It will be a matter of time before somebody likes the challenge too much to make one for any new consoles out there, and then comes the game being converted to online roms. Does he even know that a PS2 can have a mod chip put inside so that it
