Hit effects won't overlap. You need to either shorten the length of the hit effect or lengthen the time interval between the waves to compensate. [e digicons];P[/e]

Depending on the screen resolution, spending extra money on an ATi 4870 or a Nvidia 260 (216core) might be worth it. I currently play games on a Sapphire Toxic 4850 512mb. It has left me wanting on a few occasions while playing at a screen resolution of 1600x1050. I personally plan on waiting until the Evergreen(DirectX 11) generation of ATi cards comes out later this year. Then I'll pick up a 4890 for cheap, unless the new cards are priced reasonably at release. [e dig

The devs are working very hard, with little sleep, to get the game working properly. If you can't wait contact [email protected] to get a refund and please stop filling the forums with this bullshit. Thx.

Modding... sitting through an entire game without trying to mod something has become an inpossibility. I just can't resist. I need therapy(and some artistic talent). [e digicons]^_^'[/e]

I'm utterly dissapointed with Empire:Total War. [e digicons] E:TW has the potential to be a great game but excessive waiting coupled with numerous bugs/AI flaws drag the game down. It really could've used another few months of development. I'd suggest not buying it until Creative Assembly releases a large patch to fix the kinks. Side note: I'm getting really tired of developers, like the Creative Assembly, that practice "release

Situation: Trying to install a SATA HD Problem: Upon opening the case to install the drive, I discover my power supply has no SATA power jack Solution: Order a 4$ power coverter cable from newegg and pay more for shipping than the product costs. Situation: I'm excited I finally got the SATA HD installed after waiting for the power cable to come in the mail. I'm now trying to install Windows XP SP1. During the process, XP asks me for SATA drivers on a 3.5

Will the update be getting some optimizing? I'm having some wonky lag issues at about four fleet upgrades in on a 5 planet map. During combat the game will be moving fine at about 30fps. Suddenly though, it will slow down to 5-12fps for awhile(10-20 seconds) then pop back up to 30. This process keeps repeating. To avoid the subsequent "Oh yeah, what are your PC specs?" post.

There's a minor error in the muzzle effect of the front starboard, pun intended, autocannon. The muzzle effect needs to be rotated 180 degrees. It's been annoying me since since release. [e digicons]^_^'[/e]

The way I understand it, a pre-order is needed to play the beta unless you're Brad, Blair or Craig. They have powers that allow them to get around the pre-order, while enticing others to fork over 10$. [e digicons]^_^[/e]
