lots of optimization (should perform better than ever - even on low-end machines); lots of new minor gameplay elements; plus a huge number of fan requests. 1) This has probably been asked, but will it be DX10 support? 2) Pink space
Second, we have unlimited capacity to do whatever we want, we have nothing to keep us from doing something besides willpower, which I doubt computers will ever have. Um... yeah, right. Suuuuure we do. We can... if I wanted to I could strip naked, light myself on fire, run over to where you live and burn yourself down. We have unlimited capacity to do stupid, absolutely
lol... I was scanning this and I wish I haven't, I have a few comments: 1) If you have scientific proof, SHOW YOUR SOURCES! I could say it's been scientifically proven that up is down and that tomorrow it will rain apple pie, but just because I said science proved it does not mean that it is true. 2) Until we find a way to remove resistance of the flow of electricity in memory and other parts, I'm pretty sure (I'm guessing) that there is no way to create a human brain.
*appropriately named battleship*: I want to cast MAGIC MISSILE! Kol Battlesip: Where's your 20 sided die? Much more likely it will be more of maybe taking control of the enemy's ships for a while, or reducing accuracy of the enemy's weapons, or something similar. I doubt the Advent will be casting chain lightning or anything stupid.
How about a star explodes? completely destroying a solar system and everything in it? XD. that wouldn't work at all, unfortunately. actually, a solar flare would probably affect planets 3-5 jumps away. Solar flares hit earth. what we could do is say if your at the suns, shields are reduced by 100%, at 1 jump away, 90%, two jumps away, 50%, and 3 jumps away 15%
I sorta like it: it looks like the Millenium Falcon
I'm really exited about the patch, but I don't know if I can download it... I'm stuck between either an amazing computer with a slow-as-balls internet connection,or a crappy computer with a 6bmps connection, curse college and heavy computers :/
Me and Ron vs. ALL!!
Why are all planets in science fiction SINGLE TERRAIN? the ICE planet, the DESERT planet, the FORREST planet, the WATER planet -_- Planets terrain should be based on their position. I mean it's fine to have single terrain planets once in a while but they shouldn't dominate the galaxy. Or be in absurd places (I.E. A Ice planet near the sun, or a water planet in a remote reach) What about the
My point proven, we still have a lot to learn, physics basics have existed for only about 50 years at most(compailed that is). Now where are those aliens.... Playing WoW, duh! XD
If lordkosc had his way the ships would be made of glass with pink space ponies running around inside. I think I'll remodel the Kol battleship so it will be a giant pink pony that shoots lasers from its eyes! but honestly
I want a Hrung to collapse on my planet!
No RTS is a passive game. If you play passive, or try to turtle, you'll lose 90% of the time. If you play a game passively, you'll end up losing. If you play aggressively, you'll find this game too easy. It is all about expanding and building a large a fleet as fast as possible. I usually have a main fleet, then on all my planets small groups of ships and defenses to buy time for the main fleet to get there. I don't even get any defense until after I have most of a galaxy conquered
pssst, I've been gaming for years (and in WoW pretty much sense release ). I know what 1337 is. If only by inference. Its just that I can't speak leet-speak. At all. And reading it... no wai. Awesome! What server/character name? I just got back on again
Well duh ! Gamers are fat, educated nerds. Hey! I'm not even fat!
yah, were hoping they get jessica alba as one model and jessica simpson as the other, and they can duke it out I vote for the chuck norris pirate ship. It has 30,000,000 shields, 600,000,000 hp, and can blow up a planet with maximum planetary development
Terran planets, desert planets, gas giants are "in" according to devs, I've heard chatter about moons but don't remember the details, desolate frozen bodies = ice planets, asteroids are in-game, space wreckage is in, and I believe binary/trinary star systems are something they want in, but aren't sure about the details yet. Just remember, they have another patch to go on beta 2, and then two more betas past that! They need
time for my analysis! Battle 1: at 1 minutes, you have a very interesting thematic idea with glockenspiel and strings. It sounds very much like Final Fantasy Tactics at that point. I enjoy the music of final fantasy tactics, but I don't know if it fits as well in this setting of massive space battles. I like how it's in 4, but it sounds like its in a more complicated time because of hemiolas. 1:49 Woodwind like sound sounds like it just goes off randomly. Probab
So how does the Vasari music sound like? i hope they will have some sort of mystic and alien like music I'm personally hoping for a slightly ethnic feel, a mysterious tribal beat would be pretty sweet. Or maybe something really nuts, Like Bozza, Hindemith, maybe ev
They can, but bat riders explode, so they're not really taking damage, and siege tanks just don't die no matter what you do. Also, gargs are the best AA damage in game, except that they have melee, but so do hippos. I believe this thread is completely hijacked, and it's all my fault. GET BACK ON TOPIC!!! lol
I have a great idea that proves we're all insane! We troll BETA forums. How much worse can you get!?
[offtopic] If you think towering was bad, this one time me and my friend in 2v2 went all faerie dragons and flying machines. The other team didn't build any anti-air, and we won. Hahaha, Bat riders, Gargs, Steam Tanks (teched), or hippos would own that team. @phoenix NO! I hated towering in wc3ft, never want to go through that again.
?? I'm hoping the sounds will be more dynamic when the game comes out I want some BOOM!! action compared to pew pew! action! As for the music, I like a lot of it, but it would be amazing if the music was actually played by some orchestra,and not in a mostly digital sound format. Sometimes it gets on my nerves a bit, but that could just be me.
I think what will happen in the end is that each player will start off with a fixed starting setup. Lets say 1 home planet and 3 asteroids. There will be very little room for expansion, maybe 2 or 3 asteroids between the main territories. This will result in some, but very little expansion, and more on ship building/controlling and attacking the enemy fleet. This will make the games alot shorter as well.
Actually, they basically added the high elves units to regular human units. Naga would've been overpowered, but they were still fun to play. The races in Sins are inherently different because they come from different parts of the galaxy and have had thousands of years to perfect their own branches of research. That's why I'm so excited for this
