I will be honest I thought there should have been a campaign as well but the fact the gameplay is good is how they have got away with it. I love the game but I think they should put a campaign of somesort in the current game free since thats an expected standard these days. It has good replay value though and honestly it plays so much better than any rts I know of , I find most to be just click fests but sins there is so much ways to do stuff, as for rushing up the tech tree maybe I jus

I would liek to see a spectator mode as long as its well thought out so it cant ruin games
You know what , just been thinking about the home system idea, even currently you could have something like that if you made it so that yes you still had to build all your home system but before you could get into the home system you had to take down a certain building in another heavily defended system like a broadcast center (Bad example but you get the idea some building which could in terms of rp take down some home system protective grid . Just another idea :) . more I think about this , we
I would possibly be interested in this. Sounds fun if you can play it in a realistic kinda way. Realistic in the sense of good ship composition, fighting for resources and make time for proper player to player diplomacy and cutting deals. I think theres alot of potential in this idea if you dont go overly strict. I have played RP muds before and I find they have way to many limitations. If you wanted to make it really good you could strike deals, make a factions place a "no go zone" fo
I might add though it is really difficult to say what it is because if you were joining games and it happens well I know some people try to play ICO who have major issues, one night I went on and there was a guy trying to get players who had like 100% open slots for all , I couldnt join but neither could anyone else apparently. Plus if I am too believe that not everyone has connection issues at their own end then maybe theres still some issues with ICO, aside from the one instance I mention wher
I have a absolutly rubbish BEFSR41 linksys router, heres the thing if you have this router and are using the firmware listed on the US version of the linksys site well theres a high chance that could be the problem. (Doesnt sound like thats the case for you but maybe this will help someone at somepoint) Heres the thing linksys are aware that there are DC probs with the BEFSR41 wired routers from what I have read anyway. I had to find a forum post from some guy that had the problem for l
Cool , yeah I just genuinly want to see more replays up overall for the latest patch its just , many are veterans but with like 1 replay up of the latest patch its hard to see the differant ways the big clans play. I know the likes of clanx and GE are big clans and wang seem to be doing well. The things is Im sure theres other great clans I just havent heard of but would be appreciated if some of the big clans could put up some replays marked like clanname: map: factionvsfaction:version number .
Excuse my ignorance again but what exactly does a dev game night entail? I also read someplace that people on this game are on TS with the ceo sometimes?? Dont know if its true but cool idea none the less. Still would like to know what the dev game night is about Thanks!
Thats what I was just going to say , could create a video of it. You know something just as Ive said that and read what regicide has said I can see the difficulty now, video would be pointless, how we look at ship stats etc in a recorded video lol dow silly me . Im just thinking though , current states and prior states get stored in a file, all calls made get stored, .........hmmmm okay thinking out aloud , I aint going any further lol yeah I bet that would be difficult. Only thing I c
Ow a content patch very interesting? This is what I was kinda hoping from IC , however I always hope that from companies and it doesnt generally happen. It would be great if they could add little sometimes medium amounts of content to the game when it was possible. Interesting though!

Stop it , gettin optimism here ow no! :d [quote]So, ship X can hold 1,000 points. Its engines must be at least 300 points, its armor must be at least 200, which leaves 500 points for gunses. As long as you can fit the parts into the ship, then it should work. I am over-simplifying,
Sorry no edit button but I think Im permenantly scarred now haha
I still think it would be good for both sides of the argument if someone could upload 3 or 4 TEC Vs advent where TEC wins on MP. I know it can be done(Im trusting I guess :) ) Nah seriously though it would be helpful. Perhaps 1 early game win and one late game win where TEC out eccos advent. (Not meaning to hijack thread its just I can only see 1 1.4 replay up on the replay site and more replays would really help me improve I think) Thanks all
[quote]To me the problem is that, let's say there's a 'DUR DUR' option for uber-fast speed. This gets around, sales skyrocket, and now the game is clogged with these players, to the point where the people of whom the game was intended for are pretty much drowned out by the balance demands of the 'DUR DUR' option crowd. Yes, options are great, but you have to consider what changing the game too much, even gradually, in a certain direction would do.[/quote] Exactly and it is goin
Thanks again :) appreciated.
Adama , when I play advent I see like this mad glow (With a mad like outline of something), Im just wandering how I can tell what abilities the advent are using on me?
Hi its quite possible Im missing something but on the sins replays site there only 1 replay I can see thats clearly marked for patch 1.4. Some replays arent marked what patch they are for at all, those are the much older ones so Im pretty certain they aint for 1.4. Just a suggestion in case Im not missing something, could people who put up replays possibly put what patch they are for in the replay title? Also on the sin replay site could the people who develop the site add a way to filter by
Hi just seen a post where users tell a person to upgrade civ infrastructure on planets, heres the thing when I capture asteroids , I actually have 1 stage civ infrastructure to upgrade by roid and I do it almost immediatly, Is it the case that civ infrastructure on roids is every bit as relevant as on planets? Also I have probably taken it to the extreme where planets are concerned, when I first take any planet after my capital I dont take any other planet until the current planet is
I hope they dont go to much down the road of major micromanagement to work around any bugged abilitys, I like the fact I can concentrate on fleet composition and timing of attacks and the ai is good enough to know what abilities to use for the most part. (I know there are exceptions but when Ive amassed 5 or 6 fleets to hit and run targets I dont want to have to be needing to trigger countless abilities per fleet when the ai should have decent situational awareness anyway , making me able to kee
Good luck with it derbal! Take your time and try your best not to cut corners. Its going to be a hellish amount of work but I reckon if you stick to those rules somewhat should be great :) Hope it all works out for you and your team
Hi twelvefield, new hear so bear with me but If I follow correctly then you are saying for example play sp games , try ship designs out and save them , then use what designs you want in an online game? If that is your idea then I have to say thats the best way I could see of immplementing such a system, then again if it was as in depth an editor as gciv 2 or better then I imagine 2 weeks after release there would be many balance issues as players as per usual would find multiple exploit
Hi WANG , I am just a casual player (Yeah terrible I know :) ), in saying that I am on SP very much. I would like to have a game with you folks, I aint good at the game and will almost certainly lose but I just figured if I could get an MP game , one thats not clan vs clan competition buit just a game with no strings attached , well even if I lose bad I have some good replays to watch and see where I went wrong Thanks for reading.
Thanks folks , In saying that I am still looking forward to the game but think if much more happens well EA are going to ruin it. Im glad theres more than me just feel something revolutionary could potentially be ruined. I am still really looking forward to it but kinda wish it wasnt EA doing it.
Ive been waiting for years , dont like what EA is doing with the creature editor though charging $10usd for a demo is this the next greed trend we will see in the industry. I cant wait for this game but I seriously hope some more friendly sensible community fan sites come about. (Ive been in many gaming communities and spore has the worst community ever on the sites I have visited, maybe thats because people have been waiting so long who knows? but I really hope some of the admins see
