Any news on this front? HW3 I have been waiting for forever. I am part of the spacebook page. Might have a look see there. http://www.facebook.com/groups/wewanthomeworld3/?fref=ts
I want to test it without mucking around to much Is it just port 6112 that needs opening at both ends (for either to host)??
LAN does not need port forwarding. Its only when you go through a router to the internet you need that. My question is not about LAN but about direct connect working over the internet?
Thank you for your reply. How do I go to multiplayer using something other than ICO... Does LAN/Direct still work for internet play? If so I will configure port forwards etc.
I get stuttering in multiplayer only using ICO even when only against AI. Does not happen in other games. I am in Australia. Are the host servers perhaps in the US and this is why I am getting lag? Can I still use direct connect via IP over the internet to play with friends.. this may solve the issue.
I swear by my kindle. Its a life saver. Now if only computer screens were colour E-Ink. (not that joke of a kindle fire effort)
I like sins and total war First preview is up. Mother of God!!!! Amphibious assaults Legions with their own traits Three or more capture points for cities 60 units to control per army!!!! Not out until next year some time. boooooo <a href="http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2012/07/02/total-war-rome-2-preview/" targe
sorry I was asking agentexeider. But harpo if you paid that price I think you have more money than sense... just my opinion.
u live in the states? Qualify your statement dammit. Did you pay $100 or $13?
I would grab it if it was $20 but its $100 for australians..... can you imagine being offered an "upgrade" to a few trinkets for $100?
So thats it then :( The very human question.... is that all? No vasari chasers?
I think it just makes no sense for capital ships to be so few in number considering how most navies have historically outfitted their navies. I know caps are meant to stand out as heroe ships. But I really think all of the cruisers just look like auxiliary fleet vessel instead of staple of the line for a battle fleet. Battlecruisers would have the same feel as capital ships but be slightly smaller and have less abilities as it were. In other words they would look long an
Your right GoaFan77. But I have to hope that this is not all. I mean its not too far fetched for Ironclad to release a 4th race in the BETA and have everybody talking and buying to play it. I mean something like that would get the rest of the original purchasers off their behinds as it were to purchase rebellion and finalise the move from gamestop.
I am still hoping for a 4th side to make the dosh I paid worth it. So far we have got for the price of a full game (a second time around I might add) a few new units and abilities and some graphical polish (which seems to have been turned down with each patch). I mean the previous add ons had just as much really for a tenth the price. Fingers crossed the devs have a surprise in their kit bags for us.
It would be really ironic if it were dinosaurs.
I noticed this. I need to see them do Z axis and a few other things before they get anything out of me. In fact I would much rather they propose a third party campaign for sins there.... the original campaign quality was excellent for conquest.
The vasari are running from their mortal enemy.... but now their enemy has finally caught up with them... Reminds me of the book Off Armageddon Reef
I rename ships and planets all the time. ITs a blast when playing with friends.
no it will not, but renaming planets and ships does.
I would love to add my own badges similar to homeworld but thats a no go apparently?
I hear it does not incorporate all the latest graphical improvements for this engine?
I have to say this looks great and I am downloading it as we speak.
Took me five seconds to get bored of all the clicking. I will play the napoleonic DLC for warband instead.
Yeah i noticed that. Its aiming to be direct competition. I have found out that their is limited Z axis movement to allow ships to be attacked from the top and bottom their is also subsystem targetting if you have the right tech... which may explain the way ships get destroyed piece by piece. I think where Sins may trump is in multiplayer. I don't know how well a turn based total war style strat map will translate. This game is one in a month or so, we shal
Yeah I am a big total war fan so this may be good for me too. It will be interesting to see if I can stand it after sins. I just wish sins had more of a campaign and some more unique features like the 3D and planet revolutions it had in the alpha.... I would almost pay anyone to let me play that alpha. The other thing I do not like is the seemingly limited ship chassis. It seems the more weapons customisation you get in games the less ship classes you get. Its k
