I'll just post a quick link to this: [link="https://forums.sinsofasolarempire.com/?forumid=440&aid=167730&p=1#1370923"]WWW Link[/link] Because a lot of the discussion here is similar. Those who read it will see the usual suspects. BTW: Its gets hilarious towards the end :D.

Don't worry Fleisch...there are many of us out here who have posted much the same as you and Red Priest mentioned. (Search for my posts earlier..good stuff :D) In each case the people who post are attacked by an identical group who seem to believe that a discussion consists only of rote repetition and that anyone attempting to point out weaknesses in the game is somehow attempting to directly attack their baby. I really hope that this game is great, hell, I bought it beforehan
Yeah Schod is barely 18...its easy to forgive and forget him...followed by pitying him. I'm checking out of this thread, sorry guys.
I like you TGE. I think it really has been one person attacking others within this thread, I haven't seen any personal attacks except for the one against myself earlier from Schod...who has gone on quite the rampage here with memorable and laughable quotes such as: [quote] [B][I]"just ask yourself who has been here nearly a year longer than you, we know what we're talking about. just a friendly hint, as we a
You kind of have to wonder if these huge corporations are really "American" anymore though. They are moving overseas to cheaper manufacturing sites, cheaper administrative sites and tax havens. Yes, many do business here within the United States, and maybe they started here, that doesn't mean that they are keyed into American interests anymore than Chinese or Russian interests...the same would probably hold true in any interspecies conflict, neutrality would probably be key to trade on worlds
*Sigh* You've proved my point. You've already told us that you've been here 'nearly a year longer' than everyone and then reference a group of people that includes a person who is [I]making[/I] the game. Of course Blair loves the game, he's [I]making [/I]it. You're absorbed into this game to the point of paranoia, there is no reason to attack those who are trying are simply writing to the developers in order to share our observations. Nothing less, nothing more. I gave an example o
[quote] if all you see are the few base similarities of COURSE you arent going to see the differences. I could just as easily say that the protoss and zerg are exact carbon copy clones because "they have similar barrack, airport and tank buildings and similar ways to get materiel" doesnt mean its true. [/quote] I think the problem is that you and Ron are too close to this game. I see this in research often, another scientist will refuse to accept
[quote] You only need ONE phase jump inhibitor. Why does the AI build 2 or 3? In case the first one goes bye-bye? [/quote] Why does that make any sense? If your enemy has the time and firepower to take out one phase inhibitor...he'll probably be able to take out 2 or 3. The AI would be better off building hangers or defense structures...or more ships...or a better economy...
Yeah, I'll fool around with it some more, you're welcome to add more pictures if you have any Ron.
I took some more pictures, I'm not quite sure what everyone considers to be proper lighting...this is as good as I can get right now: The Kortul: [IMG]http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c260/DrewGMichael/kortulgood2.jpg[/IMG] The Giant Space Fork: [IMG]http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c260/DrewGMichael/KortulWeird2.jpg[/IMG] As before, no editing or photoshop...
Ron Lugge... Not to reminisce, but I remember you from Master of Orion 3 years ago. You were an apologist for that game also. Right up to the bitter end in fact you were telling everyone how the game was completely different and total production failures such as the bug crippling point defense was in fact a 'feature' that the devs meant to include and was totally within the scope of the game. Your posts always supported Quicksilver and how 'the next patch will fix everything'...
Running Tally so far: Flip it: 3 Keep it: 1 Maybe the ship is just so powerful that it moves around 'upside down' relative to the rest of the fleet as a handicap? We may never know...
I was looking through the units last night and noticed this. It looks to me that the Kortul is inverted, the ship looks sleeker and more menacing when observed from the bottom. Observe: Here is the Kortul: [IMG]http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c260/DrewGMichael/KortulGood.jpg[/IMG] Here we have the Kortul again: [IMG]http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c260/DrewGMichael/KortulWeird.jpg[/IMG] Was this a mistake? Or maybe if enough people prefer the
I also have an awesome idea, we can take an object that is round...say that shape of a cylinder, and take the shape and make something that rolls. We could use them to transport goods...or even make something I like to call an "Automobile". I'm working on something I like to call "Fire" also...
Not to point the finger...but face it. You messed up and now you're being an ass xko. Buy a bloody clue and realize the trolling message boards is a waste of time. You're so transparent its pathetic.
Great ideas I like them. I'd especially like to see stealth in the game.
Rate the game on what it is...not what its promoted and promised to be. If you were to rate something on hype...then Duke Nukem Forever is the bestest gaming experience evar! "Saying the game has no soul is pretty harsh, but I've just completed my second technology victory and man is that soulless. I didn't think anything could be worse than the boring Civ spacerace, but I am wrong. I mean researching a few techs in a perfectly straight lin
Maybe they should spend 2 days and write an actual tech tree rather than using placeholder names and dialogue? The 'I don't take this seriously' humour wears thin after a while. I'd like to see an explanation of what I've recieved for pressing the end turn button 20 times for 'Total Majesty' other than: "Some peoples farts really don't stink." Theres also more than a few techs were the entire dialogue is just "This
Yes I've noticed that the hull gets slightly larger. What I also noticed is that the components within that slightly larger hull are also now slightly larger. Note this from my earlier post: "I'm still trying to figure out if the growth is completely linear...I don't think so, but it would take a huge amount of miniaturization to actually do something." Yes the hull may grow at a faster rate than the components. The real question is "What is that rate?". If re
The original poster is right. As a player researchers Miniaturization, the hull of a ship gets slightly larger, but the items contained within the ship also get larger. I'm still trying to figure out if the growth is completely linear...I don't think so, but it would take a huge amount of miniaturization to actually do something.
