[quote who="zechio" reply="41" id="3172040"]Just restarted steam and sins has a 104 meg patch downloading. Also: For the record, Steam sucks. It's nothing but trouble time and again. It's part of why I vastly preferred Impulse. NTM the whole having 0 control over your games ( such as separate install directories...what if I want 1 game on my SSD, but another on my large HDD? Or the whole not even able to launch a game without Steam running, etc. ) Grumble grumble

[quote who="Mooster" reply="1" id="2206299"]Its probably stolen by those people who pirate. You might want to contact [email protected] (someone please verify) and ask them for help.[/quote] That doesn't make sense since pirates tend to not need CD-keys, or if they do, used ones but then CRACK the game. I would know as I actually did pirate Sins. But eariler this year I did buy it, the CE version actually. But yea get in contact with sals@stardock

China can't really do anything to the US that wouldn't mean it's own annihilation. It can't do anything to the US besides launch nukes. Oh and getting your info from Encyclopediadramatica.com? Wow..... hope you mean that as a joke. China has more problems on its hands, like soon to have to depend on outside sources for it's food. It's futile lands are becoming deserts.

[quote who="CobraA1" reply="25" id="2185125"] So to all the fools saying pirating software and data is stealing, prove it. What do I need to prove? It's fairly obvious: Stealing is getting something without paying for it. That's like asking a store to prove that computer somebody smuggled out of a store woithout paying for is really stolen. You're defying the basic definition of theft. How can I answer such an absurdity?? Oh ^^^^, you think that will stop

(Smartass response such as "Nobody's" excluded) What should be done to balance the next financially feasible (Mecher3k's;Easy, don't make a sucky game) title for predictable sales? 1) Invalidate (as in self-destruct the pirated programs installed) each and every 100,000 illegal copies above (and anything afterwards).

So to all the fools saying pirating software and data is stealing, prove it. I know you can't because it's NOT, it's breaking COPYRIGHT laws. It's impossible to steal a bunch of 0s and 1s in digital format. Oh ^^^^, you think that will stop piracy? LOL. Really you people are pathetic, nothing will STOP it. Nothing. <

[quote who="CobraA1" reply="6" id="2184014"] No it isn't, once again, a pirate copy will never = lost sale. Sure it does. The world does not revolve around you and your friends. So the question is: What can we do to convince you to buy the game? I'm not stealing anything, I am however breaking copyright laws. You can do both simultaneously. They are not mutually exclusive concepts. [/quote] Once again, a pirated copy is not a lost

I see a few major problems with their argument. One, it is not the pirates fault. How you may ask? Easy ALL MMOs have connection issuses for a while after they are released, yet they still get really high scores. It is the reviewers who couldn't wait to see if the connection problems will solve themselves, or give it a high score anyway and say it's great aslong as the connection problem goes away. And two, they better not blame piracy, in anyway, for poor sales because

[quote who="Bigglesworth_XIII" reply="1" id="1933540"]We can discuss future technology based on what we know right now. [/quote] That statement is completely devoid of logic.

N3rull is just proving my point. This debate is useless. Do you really think in the future we wouldn't have countered that effect? They already working on ways to shield the astronauts mission to mars. Again, this debate is useless. We have no clue what tech will be when humans leave the earth to explore the galaxy. And saying the odds of humans exploring the galaxy is nil is extremely foolish. The only reason you say that is because we have a destructive tendecy. Who's to say t

what I find funny is I'm sure people were saying the samething with airplanes and how they will be used. Space fighters WILL have a use, it's a given. Also this debate shouldn't even exist in the first place. We do not know how space combat will be in the future or what tech we will have. Depending on the tech space fighters could be useless, or one of the most effective fighting forces out there.
