I've had the same problem. It might be your browser. I;m using Firefox so try Internet Explorer instead. Otherwise just don't worry about so much lol its not a big deal

I think you're doing a great job, keep it up!

I pictured it as less strategy because people will find swarming much easier: Lower resource cost = more ships. Then with ships being destroyed easier, swarming will become possible since protecting valuable capital ships will be useless. They will cost less and do less damage, so there will be no strategy in using them (the point being they cost more because they deal more damage). Perhaps I'm wrong but I think this Mod will result in swarming on a large scale and take less strategy.

Send a PM to Seabass. He should be able to check your ticket for you

I had forgotten the name of the button. On Impulse its update. The register button is correct. Hit that button after you type in the info and continue from there. The reason I ask you be patient is that 1) All of these steps came from support where I had the same problem 2) Most companies would never tell you this much they would just tell you to return the game at the store Stardock is doing much more than you would usually see and you should appreciate that. They did not caus

Well the reason capital ships are so costly and have high shields and hull points is so that you have to use them tactically. The reasons you see a scout take many hits is because either 1) It is upgraded and your own offensive systems are not 2) You are not hitting it with the right counters (more on this in a second) or 3) Both. Sins is a Real Time STRATEGY game. The whole purpose is that only certain types of ships will do good damage to certain types of ships. In larger battles a fl

Download StarDock central, click on the top Tools > Register Products. Then click on the left side navigation My Games, and select Sins from the drop down list. Type in your registration number and your e-mail and click Update. Then go to the left navigation and select Internet. Click Refresh XML Data. Then uninstall and reinstall StarDock Central. Support did not create this problem, but they certainly can help you fix it if you calm down. If the steps above do not work than contact su

Make sure you check your spam/junk e-mail folder. Also if your computer is set to auto-delete junk e-mails then check your deleted items folder.

[quote]I'm wondering on where the Support section on this website so I can send an email to get another Code since the Serial Code didn't work either so I would just rather do what i did for Galactic Civilizations II were i just sent an email and got a new Code.[/quote] [email protected] P.S. They don't just send you a "new code". To make things go faster send them an e-mail that contains pictures of the original box, cd, and serial number if you have the retail version.

I tried uninstalling/reinstalling StarDock Central and it allowed me to register the game without error messages. I then checked Impulse, and all error messages have disappeared from there as well. Thanks for your help and patience in helping me get through this.

I just read through the thread and personally I think that it only really gets bad in large games. The update to max it out with Fleet size is a huge help for a TEC player however, because even though Vasari are getting free ships, TEC should have a strong enough economy to wait it out in the short run and continue producing. Once they max their fleet capacity you are arguably on semi-equal ground since Vasari ships cost more to produce (so they will be falling back on RA) but TEC has strong eco

I went through the registry and did in fact have a Sin and Sins folder. I deleted the Sins one and the pop-up messages have disappeared from SDC however going into Setting->My Games and clicking to update the serial number still gives me the error that the serial is invalid. I check Impulse and it still lists the registration as invalid. As I said though this did eliminate all the pop-up messages as soon as SDC is opened, and I can still update the game without any error messages. Do you think u

[quote]been a day or so now no reply to ticket yet was hoping to own some friends of mine tonight *sob*[/quote] ...It's been one day. Have a little patience.

I installed Impulse and while it does still say my registration is invalid in the registration tab, I do not get any error messages that pop up when I load the program. When I tried to update the registration it gave me the error message about e-mail/serial being invlad (ref 204). However the program runs smoother and quicker than Stardock Central, and does not give me any error messages when I attempt to update software, so I'll probably use this system from now on to update. I also find it mor

I tried Refrshing the XML data but I'm still getting the message. As long as it is going to continue to allow me to update and play online though it's not really a concern. I just wanted to make sure that on your end you wouldn't think that my registration was invalid and shut it off at some point in the future.

Alright got a response today and I am now able to update my game and make an online account for Sins. I still get an error message when I open StarDock Central that it has failed to validate my registration info, yet Stardock Central also allows me to update the game anyway. So I assume that I can just ignore this message and continue to update and play Sins online?

After contacting support, I was told to send some pictures of the serial directly to Travis G instead of the support e-mail using a subject line Authorized E-mail ####### (blocked because you said you did not want any account info on this posting) but I haven't heard anything back. This was on April 3, so I was thinking about resending the message because its been about 2 weeks but I wasn't sure if I should do that or not? Figured I would ask here since support has been monitoring the thread.

Well, even if Stardock does track down the source and stop these games from being repackaged (if that is the situation), that does not help you as a customer, it only helps future customers. That is why they are addressing people individually using e-mails. The reason they ask for a serial number picture is so that people do not download the game from a torrent and then send an e-mail to support to get a free serial number besides. As such, you at least have to buy a copy of the game legitimatel

Honestly I played a demo of this game for 360 and its pretty terrible. The concept is good on paper but that's it. There's these little flags (like CTF) that you have to capture. Once you do "the frontline" moves up to where you are and more allies become available. However to capture these areas you have to stand DIRECTLY on the marker. If the marker is in the middle of an open street then go stand there and get shot every time. The game continues to spawn players until you take each point, and

Yes I suppose you're right, the next shooter with the same features and better graphics always gets the widest reception. It's unfortunate that the industry forgets that even companies like Bungie started off making games in a computer station set up in one of their founder's garage before they got to Halo and Microsoft.

I don't know if it got completely ignored. I found it in a lot of gaming magazines, and I recall first hearing about it in Game Informer, which gave it quite the glowing review.

I've noticed quite a few posts regarding putting together stats tables and such, and it made me wonder why there was no strategy guide available for this game. I realize that without a single-player campaign it would be rather short, but that should make it cheaper to produce. And there would only be room for strategy tips and charts and tables, which are mostly used by hardcore gamers, but hardcore gamers are also the only people who buy strategy guides anyway. I know this is a bit of a ramble,

They seem to be completely behind this game and I would not be at all surprised if they plan on making a series out of this if everything goes well. Basically this game was a way for them to lay down the ground-work. It's a great game but (single-player included or not) I think there are going to be some expansion packs coming down the road that will include all kinds of features they didn't have time to put in for this game. If they do come up with an innovative way to weave in single-player li

I agree that RTS game campaigns tend to often be a little too linear but I do think that there is a really great story to be told from this game. Ironclad is trying to figure out some way of having a non-linear campaign so that they can break the mold a little. I think we should give them some time and see what they come up with for the expansion.

Who knows with that stuff. I've heard of those types of programs but I don't think any of them work either. Personally I still believe that EB Games and Gamestop repackaged some games and put them out there since the majority of us with problems got our games from there.
