Hey guys, I just wanted to say I cant wait for this thing to get done beign converted to entrenchment. I only wish I had seen this sooner seeing as now all the links seem to be dead and I have never had a chance to acctually play it :) Rynac PS - If anyone has the working link I would love to give it a shot on vanilla sins :)
the only game in recent memory that had a good campaign I thought was Supreme Commander.
Just a idea fellas but if you check out the community for the game bridge commander there are models there you can use and recently created ones that look very good. Some Start gate stuff, all the ST you can imagion, SW, and I am pretty sure some B5 stuff. would be worth checking out.
well one of the capital ships has the ability to suspend trade and steal the income from the planet lol you dont take over it that way but might as well
honestly if you ask me when the play drops or quits they should count it as a loss and then either their stuff gets given to a team mate or just blows up. Letting the AI take over would be frustrating beaing the player only to have the computer resurect his empire while your dealing with the team mate. I would rather have things sit still so you could hunt them down instead of a AI. Just not a fan I have played enough sword of the stars to know that AI taking over a human drop is just annoying l
nice job, i love the idea :)
I am using a 7600 GTX with the recent drivers and my game does lock up. I turned it down from highest to high and it does it much less ovten but still does it. however my FPS is fine.
I play online for one :) if that helps there is at least three of us in the thread lol usually there is about 15 or 20 games on when I play but I play during the day or obscenly late at night so i am sure there is more during regular hours.
I wished I could have ordered a collectors edition, I though I did but turns out the order didnt go through then they were gone by the time I noticed... *sigh*
I like it acctually, its a nice touch. Do you have any screens of the new star system stuff?I know you put up the textures and what not but I mean like in game screens with the mod in use?
for all the talk of moving ships it really doesn’t matter. I mean it would be fun and a little more entertaining (just like I would prefer to see the ships take damage per shot not a all the damage on the first round that hits the ship) but its really a mute point. Even if they did put in ships that moved in combat there are really three things you have to over come. 1) Most ships only have front firing weapons and while a smaller class can out maneuver a bigger class if the cl
just a FYI but I am having the crashes as well but they only happen in online play not on network or just my computer. How did you change those settings in the sound file finalvinyl
one edit, by close to the entrance and exit points i meant as close as possible consider the range restrictions. And as far as the AI goes on those raiding fleets they dont attack your builders so usually what I end up doing is building a few for token and then once they start to cluster build like crazy... and i agree with you, i also would like some time before to many changes were made.
just a fyi if the ships did move around in combat it really wouldnt matter to much. most races dont miss :)
for what its worth, I don't see the problem here really. Granted it might be low but it is effective. Besides AI is all about logic and being effective what isn't logical about using a lot of ships to accomplish a goal for cheaper than capital ships and have a lasting impact and is quick? Its a sound way to win and its a very human approach which is what the whole concept of AI is about. That being said I do think the siege ships are a bit to tough. Honestly I think all the ships are a
The only thing I would like the devs to change is to make the ships take damage either per hit or at least make the health bar drop some what gradually. Its kind of annoying to see your ship launch three torpedoes and have all the damage happen on the first hit. Same with the rest of the multi projectile weapons like the cannons... but its not a make or break for me.
All I can say is try getting a copy of windows 32 bit. 64 has always been buggy on the graphics drivers and vista 64 is no exception. Or just sit and wait that someone can patch it. If I come up with anything I will let you know.
I played a game at a friends house tonight and I was the tech guys (the aeon kinda looking ones... they don't call it exploring they call it scrying) and I was very impressed with the durability of their ships. I don't know if its every race or not but by the end of the game I had 30% to health and Regen, shields and Regen, and antimatter and Regen. I also had 19% in damage mitigation and a extra 4 points of armor... it was insane lol the three level six capital ships i had could take o
