Just to say the few times I have been online I have been treated well but I do agree there are some serious issues online that need sorted but taking into consideration the patch is content+fixes I dont want it put out half done. Also to be realistic if we are talking about making sins a SP only game more or less well that would take at least a year of solid development, when you consider a proper campaign would need to be added and much other stuff. Go down this route and you will get

yeah P5yy , that would possibly describe the category Im in :). The way I see it though is you will have both single and multiplayer devs, I bought the game as much for mp as for sp, now consider sp doesnt even have a campaign I think they owe it to the community to work on mp every bit as much because when you get sick of trashing the ai in sp you have lots of replay value in mp. Also gciv 2 is a single player only game and as I recall many wanted it mp, now if you want a diverse sp game why no

Just dont appreciate huge generalisations about whole communities and because they dont like something efefctivly saying its because I am superior to them, what cack. This thread has now gone from constructive towards spliting hairs and mud slinging at the sin players hence I will not be contributing anymore on this thread. I am happy to participate as long as its solid reasoning not just bickering and insulting players skill level, everyone here paid and has as much right to enjoy the game as t

So we are arguing semantics here? It all depends on your perspective I like 4x games I dont like RTS click fest 5 min wander games and thanks to what boils down to silly semantics lets just say sins is a hybrid. Its a good game but people are crying because it takes an investment of serious time and strategy per game and are determined to ruin it rather than move on. I can sympathise with some of the people having certain problems but this whole semantics crap is just stupid, you would have to b

Thanks for letting me know about PotBS , I am inclined to believe you because of the blogs I have read + you seem to have the exact same view about the wow expansion as one of my good friends. I have got a tendancy to put too much faith in companies where MMOS are concerned so I definatly wont be buying POTBS now. (You have saved me money, cheers for that!) Looks like its the gciv 2 expansion I will be buying, Im still looking but theres a 90% I will be buying gciv 2 expansion now, than

Yeah looking at whats out there at the momment that does seem like my best option. The thing is I dont know how many others are like this but everytime I take the plunge to buy a game I usually spend hours just trying to find user opinions on stuff as through some bad experiances by listening to gamespot well I have found just ordinary user reviews to be the best gauge by far. IN regards to the gciv expansion the message Im getting is: Its a great game with lots of milage I

I have just found out that EA is also going to create an activation system that needs reactivated every 10 days or the game deactivates, found it on a couple of sites , not sure if its true but it looks that way. If they implement this system I think I will be cancelling my pre order, its just a step to far as say Im not online? It feels like purchasing a game and not getting the full product, I dont know the ins and outs of it all but my patience is wearing thin. I pre-ordered this game years b

As mentioned I LOVE my PC games, I actually have £25 Im willing to spend. Thats about $49. Thus far looking at some of the crap thats out there atm, the only game that I think may have some milage is the latest gciv 2 expansion. Im just wandering what your views are on this game and my following comments? Although I have went off MMOS I still look through them, I have played probably every major MMO but pirates of the burning sea and FF10 online. Heres the thing I was THINKING

Scott the last time I played which was only a few months back (I reactivated an old account) the way it worked was you couldnt cuss and swear in the newbie help channel, you know the one that gets moderated regulary(Actually you will 100% know about this channel but is for benefit of others reading :) ) As for swearing in local etc, I seen much swearing and crazy behaviour but just stayed out of it, but at least when I used to play they didnt bother about swearing. Im even thinking mayb

[quote]I actually just started playing EVE recently, and I like it a lot. It is extremely cutthroat, but if you remember that it's a game, then you don't bitch when you're destroyed. I've fallen into several traps, and you know what I say afterwards? Good job. Then I end up talking to the people who took me out. [/quote] Yeah I lost a drake once to a guy and went on TS. Thankfully the guy was pretty nice and told me where I went wrong in my build and gave me a corp invite. Its good

No edit but just contemplating what you are saying regarding these clans that does worry me a bit now I must admit.

[quote]Redwing, the vast majority of the vets are quitting, GE is pretty much disbanded informally and we were the only clan big enough to consistantly have in house games. Between us and the fact that I haven't seen or heard anything from X recently leads me to believe anyone with skill is leaving, not to mention the 10+ individuals who I consider to be among the best of us in sins say that any appeal for the game is gone for them, and I agree. [/quote] Dam that isnt so good at al

[quote]The thing is...now I want to play Eve after reading this. Nothing like a down an outback down and dirty virtual word to play in. Personally I think it would be great fun to create a team and hunt down every last one of your cruel and unjust attackers..the fat girl first! [/quote] I played eve for a good couple of years and became quite experianced at it. The thing is Eve is a scammers heaven; corp scamming is permitted amongst other thing. The alure is people join thinking they c

Just out of curiosity does fireworks support .dds and tga files?

What ya no ; no edit button! :) Just to say that vasari is my favourite faction thus far because even though I havent played loads with vasari they are still more fun to play and dont feel overpowered

Hey yoadjla I agree what you said earlier about TEC , I find the other 2 factions much more effective on the big maps FFA

cheers jixra , yeah let me know as soon as your map is ready to be tested and I will get some SP practice on it :) then get on mp with it asap :). Aside from everything I have said about the game in a game feedback type thread I am here to stay, still love the way the game plays and yes your idea is a VERY good one. (Anyone whos in the game to play to improve and wants a good standard of play for all surely sees the advantages in using a syatem like this) I will use PUG as you suggested

Thanks for the answers, it seems I could be using these units a little more efficiantly. Cheers all!

In relation to the paragraph lines and while Im no grammatical guru I dont really like to use them as spacers , thats not what they are for.(Theres not much more I can do if you are having trouble reading the post , putting more paragraphs in means I will be breaking up things on related subjects + I cant edit now) Im sorry it hurts your eyes. [quote]the game doesn't have much time, from it's first inception untill it's either accepted as a big title or it becomes some backwater T

Hi the way I thought of it was bombers were best for bombing any ship(non airborne) and fighters were used solely for taking down bombers and other fighter jets but the more I read Im starting to believe what Ive just said isnt the case. Just to finally say because of the above Im wandering which of these units is best for certain unit types? Thanks again!

[quote]My mother can actually beat me at Worms, every time. >Hangs head in shame Hehe class I was never any good at worms either. On a side note I think that forum avator you are using is smart Mongoose, not sure what its from? Cool though :)

If you know you are going to lose surrender. (People seem so sure so thats what to do is the sporting thing to do - well good gamesmenship but you know what I mean :) ) There are some things that need to be fixed but limiting gameplay with condition after condition isnt one of them in my view. The fact people are saying it takes so long makes me inclined to believe that there is always the possibility to come back even though its small , so either work for the comeback, if that fails y

Yeah yw np :) , your thread hasnt been up too long but Im surprised knowone else has been on saying they are thinking of doing it. I will be honest , I have hosted in many games though and feel kinda stupid I havent thought of doing this as if we are thinking along the lines of improving everyone then this would be the way to go. Its not that the newbie is able to learn because the veteran will keep them in relative safety for a time, in the case of the veteran he has to compensate for the newbi

[quote]I don't even think this is so much the game or the developer's fault. The game itself doesn't seem to lend itself well to multiplayer, at least competitive multiplayer, just because of how it's structured. [/quote] I must be in the minority but I reckon from what I have played in MP sins is by far the most relaxing enjoyable strat , period that I have ever played online, its got complexity to the point where you cant just take one look at a referance sheet crunch some numbers and

[quote]Host chooses 2 Captains with highest stats. Teams are picked once game is full . Teams are as balanced as can be.[/quote] All I got to say about the above quote is........brilliant idea , your obviously one of the minority who plays for enjoyment and for a challenge . Also doing this you are in your own way helping to raise the standard. I won my first game because by chance I got a team where it was 2v2 , I was with a veteran and the other 2 one was a veteran and one wa
