I per say love the idea of boost to units that have been targeted by multiple ships to disscourage micromangement but to be completely honest I have not seen this to be very effective as the pros to mass targeting still seem to out weigh the cons but then again I don’t really understand the system I......guess what I’m trying to say is if the bonuses to the 1 could be upped but having said this what worries me is a huge fleet warps in to start its assault and attacks the one frigate that’s

Just one question (well maby more than one) If the devs added moving ships would it add more calculations for the cpu to do If yes how much and would the deves then have to change the min specs of the game if they added it and if so would that not piss off anyone with a older system that bought the game ;p factual answers based on actual programming knowledge answers would be nice failing that random posts filed with hate will do :LOL: Seriously though how much would

Yes and no You see if they are testing user stability on the networking side of things that means that the game when it is released will have a far smoother transition for the multiplayer aspect. I.e. you won’t need to wait 4 months for devs to sort out networking issues before playing online or on a lan with friends From the little I have gathered I think that was the main purpose of the beta And as far as I can see they have had no problems with this aspect Except for so

hi there Danosh30 i am not a beta tester but i must say the did do a phenomenal job :CONGRAT: i belive the main thing they were testing for was for network stability.(swiches routers firewalls) you also have to realise that beta4 game is vastly different to the final game that they released. In the 2 betas that i played i never even got to build the shield generators (never was a necessity) :)

hi all The one thing i do wish that they made the planet sheild easeyer to get to in the begining of the game. i.e. drop the amount of reserch centers requierd to get it that would stop that tactic as you have to first destroy the turrets garding the sheild gen and then destroy the gen befor you can bomb a planet.

Hi Danosh30 The game is a good game if you like rts genre. I got a hold of the beta 3 and enjoyed it to the point that our group of 4 bought 2 copies of the game so we can play the full game on a LAN I could go and justify it with arguments of how its the first game with Real-time empire management, smooth fast and easy transition from fighting a battle to managing an empire in real time (i.e. no tactical map put on pause to fight a battle or clunky turn based system). Or the we

First off howzit Tekkor thanks for buying the game as opposed to pirating it and Secondly welcome and thanks for posting in the forums. The first few games are very daunting don’t worry bout it just keep at it and you’ll pick it up soon enough. As to your problem if you click on the light factory then on the build frigates button on the far left you can build 3 types of frigates one 1 a scout the other is a light frigate but on the bottom of that menu you can build a colon

dear Mr_Snuffle Your comments offend me. Please be careful what you post further more I NEVER once said that stardock or ironclad games cant do anything wrong BUT there are ways and means of dealing with it and name-calling is not the way as all you are likely to do is upset the people on the other end as is now the case. Stardock/ironclad should have probably shut down the pre order system 1 week ago and I think maby that’s were things went wrong. I always

Hi there PeterKernohan1987 thanks for the frank honest and candid reply :d I understand your view, frustration and sympathise with you. however if everyone preorders on the same day a few days before launch there is going to be a delay no mater what infrastructure one has in place and what upsets me is people are starting to see that as bad service when its just sheer overload. In my limited experience with stardock i have always received good service, and the service we pay for he

what id like to know is how old are the people whining about lack of service. Here is my question why did you not take the time to order it before the final rush, I did and got my serial the same day in fact me and my brother got our serial the same day AND downloaded the beta 4 That was a week ago everyone knew there would be a last minute rush and whose to say per orders are more important than the order NOW future just have some patience I’m sure stardock/ironclad and all the tech

wet phoenix you make a very valid points. :CONGRAT: unfortunately our world is such that you cant stop young arrogant children from buying the games and then posting on forums :SNIFF!: All we can do is have patience and try think of what we were like back then. and then avoid them :D ps those are the same reasons why I don’t support the mmorpg genre (eve and wow)as i often find the people on there aggravate me with there selfishness and lack of teamplay. this

hi all yet again I find a reason to post as this topic is close to my heart. buy the game stardock and ironclad really do deserve there money, these are companies with integrity, honour and balls of steel, they have put their money were there mouth is and bucked the trend to deliver us a better game when the industry per say said they’d fail. They did it with gal cive 2 and they have now done it with sins and furthermore they truly are a company that listen to their consum
