The musts: :) -A way to choose a start position please :) -DONT FLEE -Teamlocked AI should work better together -Static defences are ok but in late game there shoud be a high cost tech or structure to be able to fence of or delay larger fleets. Dont throw the turtle shit at me as I said it should be high cost. -Lol all these frigs late game did you expect us to do that as well. Kodiacs eat frigates and so he flees again! -Doesnt the AI grasp the concept of using t
SuperArgh
Yes we (IPD Clan) are having a growing group and matches which are done and are ongoing. We are currently setting up an epic 4humans against 6 hard ai locked with 4 pirate bases. All our members will return and finish a game once started. Like this forum you can post a proposed match on which time and see if you get peeps in on it. We already had some and they where geat fun :) [link="http://www.ipdclan.com/phpBB2/viewforum.php?f=12"]Our forum and matches[/link]
I am bumming about this as well tbh. Spawning is completly random. I hoped (map editor) that player 0 player 1 player 2 etc would correspond to the slots ingame but nope. This limits the way you can make challeging team maps. Ofc I could be missing something but till now I didnt find a way out of the random spawn.
For all you euros who wants some COOP matches with trusted peeps on teamspeak please read this: We play almost daily games who knows its something for you :) [link="https://forums.sinsofasolarempire.com/?forumid=410&aid=174243"]Tired of public ooops disconnect matches?[/link]
This IS NOT A GOOD GAME! Its simply the best game since a few years for me :) WTF I play with 3 humans against 5 hard AI locked. Hickups? Lag? Desync? CTD? Disconnects? Bugs? NOT ONCE! And our games last for 8-15 hours. Getting smashed by the smart AI and we need to play like a real team to survive it. Ofc this is selling well. Omg if you see how stable and polished it is for retail its simply amazing and you guys deserve it that the game is a com

This bloody game owns so much I cant begin to comprehend it. Right now I am doing a 2 human coop against 3 hard locked AI with 2 pirate bases. OMG is all that I can say the joy and teamwork needed to smack the AI is simply not yet seen in an RTS.
All I can say frog is keep playing games or you will loose the magical touch to even come up with new good ones. We see enough devs not playing their own games and see what they make. Utter crap.
Erm AI not good? hehehe I asked Craig this earlier and he said against 2 hard AI you would have quite a challenge and I can say Erm yeehaw you will be in deep shit :) I am kinda suicidal so I went for 1 v 2 locked hard AI and two pirate bases see what happened: [img]http://www.ipdclan.com/ohshit3.gif[/img] I won that engagement because of my heavy use of kodiaks but payed dearly. I dont know if I will ever win the game cause they wont let me make a move hahaha I love i
If someone ever needs help with windows 2003 server NAT forwarding pm me. Had no trouble binding the port route to the interface.
First map I made I put 2 pirate bases in. I love em. They are very nice for grading up your capitols. They cant really hurt you if you know the game. Oh sorry if that upsetted someone :)
Lol fighters and bombers are quite potent they always form the backbone of my fleet and they never disapoint me.
The way they released it with devs everywhere on IRC and Forums and in the game lobby helping people was fecking amazing!!! And then the 1200Kb download speed :) 1276Kb was my record lolz. And Craig ur evil but finally u GIMME GAME haha, love the game.
[quote] Oh Spring how much fun that game was/is Supcom sucked especially the AI OMG! You're joking, right? [/quote] Tbh nope :) Personally I have had so much fun in Spring where there was only a lot of fustration in Supcom for me. Sure the graphs where way better in Supcom bu
Well the modded ai where better but they where never a challenge. The core unmoddable ai was just too weak. Only when the moded ai's started cheating they actually became somewhat more intresting. Small game on quad where ok but when u put 3-4 ai's in the game lag became almost unbearable every second taken 5-10 seconds real time. And I played it on a quad 2.6 mhz. Multi was ok if you liked 10-20 min fast super clicking games :) I liked spring much better tbh ;)
Well[quote]Gratz IC! man...how many more hours till they upload? sheesh this is hard. [/quote] Well nobody actualy knows. But it gonna be today my clock says 14 hours but that would be weird time for a USA based company so I guess anywhere after 3pm European time.
Oh Spring how much fun that game was/is :) Supcom sucked especially the AI OMG! Eye candy yup but unplayable even on a quad. But I see we have some possible converts here. Guys if you like the game BUY IY THESE DEVS DESERVE THE SUPPORT!
Release date is here :) and my artistic expression of the joy! Finally we are gonna see that nice button appear. Congrats IC and SD may the game be a huge success :) Now wake up drive to the office early and release it hehe :) Champagne anyone? [img]http://www.ipdclan.com/soase3.gif[/img]
The aswer I was praying for :) My first game is gonna be 1 v 2 hard AI locked.
Kyro really hates pirates ;) Hate is not the solution converting is. There should be a Stardock convert department! Imho Kyro shouldnt lead that one ;)
I asked this several times about the gamma ai but never got a response yet nor is it reviewed anywhere :(
I play on the fastest speed and would like even to see that increased :) Cant imagine playing this on slow :P
Craig I agree with all of em. One big issue remains. Is the AI challeging enough to have fun playing it. In beta 4 the AI is laughable. Nowhere there is a review rating or mentioning the new gamma AI. I know you have stated it has evolved much since the beta but still so many other gamedevs have said that as well and didnt deliver. I will haunt you if it sucks :) 2 days left before we know.
Ohhhhhh and the joy of being able to own a 64k mem commodore 64 and the tapes for loading games. 10 minutes loading and then the occasional LOAD ERROR For me it started with a pong like console then a Philips videopac/Ataris competitor in Europe. OMG the first floppy drive WOOT!!! SUMMER GAMES!!!! I still feel my wrist from turning the joystick hahaha. Good ol days for sure :) And btw Hi old fecks :)
