HW2 had truly great ship AI. Although like people have mentioned that if you microed you would lose fewer ships the ships could take care of themselves. Plus homeworld 2 "multiple fronts" were DRASTICALLY different from SoaSE multiple fronts. To get reinforcements from one to the other or move your attention from one to the other was faster in HW2. You could keep track of the "multiple fronts" such that it really was one front. Whereas in SoaSE you have distance between the two. LARGE distance.

Honestly RA is only too powerful if the opponent completely and totally screws up. Any decent human player(I will be the first to admit that I might not be able to do it) will use the Vasari early game disadvantage to force them into retreat. The vasari simply put are an advanced race, it is much easier IMO to play TEC or even Advent.

side show, I wont, each planet will still have its own gravity well. The solar one however will overlap them all. Has anyone tried this?

If we extended the gravity well of the star to the entire system would there be no phasing in said system? Wouldnt that change tactics significantly? Also using wormholes you could create strategic points with short travel time between them.

Wow, I actually started a small flamewar, who knew? Stealth huh, like others have mentioned before WTF does color have to do with FRIGGING STEALTH. Have you seen the f-22? Second of all, to radically change tactics such that artillery, dogfighting, and whatever you mentioned becomes useless takes a huge technological revolution DIRECTLY related to military tech. Ok so we fight in space now, the concept of long range fire, agility in combat, and covering fire stay similar. No dogfighting, just do

hmmm how many entry points into your empire? If one then I would place EVERY LAST UNIT I own into that choke point(no seriously this HAS happened to me on a random). Also since I already had heavy power there all my tac slots would be regen or hangar. other wise I go about 5:3:2 5 point defense and 3 hanger for 2 regen. I try to stick to that sometimes its a bit more or less depending on the number of inbound phase lanes(phase lanes where the enemy comes in). Also I always leave a spare capital

I havent read the entire discussion just commenting on OP. Personally, I dont like subscription models. I would rather pay for an expansion pack every few months than actually load up new content like that. I have a few reasons for this. First: Maps, with galaxy forge and the other utilities I really dont think that adding maps is that big of a deal. Second: Lack of a credit card, I do not own a credit card, I have a DEBIT card though. Although I did purchase sins online(mothe

HOLY! I just saw your video(DROOLS!) ITS ALMOST EXACTLY LIKE THE ANIME! Two questions though. How do you actually incorporate tactics? I mean it just looked like you came and you shot. No moving or formations like the anime. Secondly what will the system requirements be?(no seriously thats a LOT of ships).

Might be a corrupted install if its not the mod issue(mod is most likely). Try uninstalling, running chkdsk, and installing again.(or if you want to try your luck just uninstall and install again, be sure to do BOTH and not just a reinstall).

There shouldnt really be any issue for an Wintel mac. The OS is the same. I would honestly say though that you can get better power for cheaper if you build your own PC instead of going with a Wintel mac.(Of course that could be me being elitist - feel free to retaliate with a *slap*)

did you try an alt tab and see if a minidump was there? If so send that in, also there is a user.setting file that has an option to enable show errors(gives more detail than a generic minidump saved at ....).

cpt siddy, you dont call this a darth vader? For every little bug we howl up a storm. Im still trying to get my game to run XD(and I do mean RUN the executable runs and either a mindump or a whole bunches of errors pop up, now I cant even download the game XD).
