[quote who="JoHBe" reply="12" id="1903150"]Will starbases have their own fighters and bombers which can be launched when under attack ?[/quote] I didn't think so at first (since there are hangers for that), but in the video you can clearly see some kind of opening at the top of the starbase. It's glowing green, however, so it may just be for decoration (or for something mind-blowingly awesome that hasn't been talked about yet).

You're forgetting that this is far into the future. The size difference between a modern bomber and a carrier isn't that much, but the difference between a bomber and a cap ship in Sins is quite large (or at least, it should be if scale was represented correctly in-game). It's easy to imagine a group of bombers taking down a carrier in real life (partly because it's happened), but imagine 4 bombers trying to take down a massive capital ship with shields and dozens of batteries of guns

[quote who="Gh0stwheel" reply="6" id="1867793"]Here is my thing though. I don't want to win, just to never lose.[/quote] They're the same thing. It's a strategy game; you either win (with your military or with diplomacy) or you lose (by the enemy's military). If you never lose, you always win. That is, of course, assuming you don't just quit right before the end of the game. :)

I'm relatively new to strategy games, so I don't have many (I included simulations, because as Kitkun said, they're by definition strategy games). Listed in no particular order: 1. StarTopia 2. SimCity 4 3. O.R.B. (a lot like Homeworld, except glitchy, buggy, horrendously unpopular, and relatively bland compared to other RTSs, but still good fun) 4. Command and Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars (not very good) 5. Command and Conquer 3: Kane's Wrath (even worse) 6. Si

I had this same problem a few months ago, when my graphics card (ATI Radeon X1900, you may have heard about its problems) started crapping out. In addition to the flickering in SoaSE, I experienced 3D artifacts in other games such as pillars stretching into the sky and strange spikes appearing on guns, vehicles, etc. Turns out a lot of the cards were manufactured with a faulty chip, and I was able to get a fixed X1900 for free. Of course, if you're not experiencing any other p

I hadn't even noticed that was on, and I usually do a thorough customization of options each time I update, reinstall, or buy a game. Now I feel stupid.

After I downloaded the beta, my color in-game is always green. Both my name and my symbol are still the same as they always are. No matter what color I pick, in game it's always green.. This is by no means a top-priority bug, but it is annoying (especially since the shade of green is ugly). Sorry if this has been posted before, but I did a search as well as went through several pages and didn't find anything about player colors.

With your reasoning I could say CnC3 copied both those games. Compare this chart to the OP's: GDI Fighting for world peace Nod Religious zealots from all areas of the globe Scrin Evil aliens that fight in numbers Granted, it's not perfect, but it pretty much fits the original idea. Anyway, as a previous poster said, not everything is a conspiracy.

[quote]The mod has not yet been updated for 1.05, but will be soon. However, it should with 1.04 as well.DANMAN[/quote] Wait, so this mod *is* being continued as a standalone (unlike the OP says)? Just not by Uzii? Sorry, I haven't been playing Sins lately, and thus haven't kept up with the modding community. That's great, because while I do like 7 Deadly Sins, some of the graphical changes are, well, horrible in my opinion. I'd like to go back to just more types of planets, n

[quote]Those images you saw were TEMPLATES, Textures will be added and they wont look bad, they will look pretty good![/quote] I don't know if you're talking to me, but textures won't make a difference on the ships the OP linked to. The basic colors are already there, so its pretty easy to tell what the ships will look like. And I never said they were bad-looking ships. They're very good and whoever modeled them should be very proud of their work. I'm just saying that none of them look

[quote]We'll definately be seeing some changes to how Sins looks from the sounds of this.[/quote] Most of those changes just appear to be touching up various meshes and textures for more detail. I don't think they're actually gonna make any new ships or completely redesign current ships. Also, in response to the original poster: Honestly, the only one of those designs that even remotely looks like its from TEC is the Masamune Shirow. None of the rest even look like they belong

[quote]Depending on how you look at it, Sins is about to release its 6th (or 5th if you don't count the day 1 patch) in 6 months, that's not something I'd call "ages", considering that I don't remember any non-MMO and non-Blizzard/Stardock game to get 6 patches in its lifetime.[/quote] CnC3 got 9 patches, I believe (7 if you don't count 2 that were really just hotfixes), but they took a year. Not that I don't disagree with your argument or that I don't think SoaSE is the best RTS I've e

I don't think so. As other people have said, average joes just expect to play a finished game. Besides, there are also many people more computer-savvy than the average joe but still have no clue how to mod. Honestly, I think it's a horrible idea.
