The Rebel's icon. Did you know that if you play as the pirates in a mod, the pirate face has this strange looking joker-ish face over it? It's white. Really creepy.

[quote who="BuddahG85" reply="26" id="3181679"]...and i believe that having steam run in the background is causing me additional lag in large games.[/quote] That is not possible (unless you have a really old computer and Windows XP) because Steam uses 14 MB of RAM. Sins uses up to 2 GB of RAM, or in other words, 2048 MB, plus 14 MB: 2062 MB, about 2 Gigs of RAM. Besides performance, I'm limited to 2 GB because 32 bit limits and stuff like that. (Waits hopefu

[quote who="Island Dog" reply="18" id="3179520"]*Speaking personally* People have requested for years for the features that Steamworks offered. I understand the points people make against Steam, but an incredible number of people like and use Steam. [/quote] Exactly! I'm one of those people.

Why do people have such hate towards Steam? It's a game updating client and a game store all in one. I didn't find leaving Steam on for Rebellion to work annoying at all, because Rebellion seems to be tied to Steam. Steam is nice because it runs at Window's start up, (By the way, you can use msconfig.exe to change that) then it'll update your game automatically, and it will *ding* when it finished. It tells me when my friends are on, and has an in-game web browser.

[quote who="Frogboy" reply="13" id="3178035"]Without a system like this we would have no way to provide discounts to people who bought in a certain time frame. Let me give you an example: People who bought Elemental: War of Magic, in 2010 get Fallen Enchantress for free. But if you bought War of Magic in 2011, the price goes up to something like $20. How are we able to do that given all the different places people have bought the game? The answer i

*sigh* It's no use. People will always complain about DRM. Bug Stardock. I'm not going to look at this thread anymore. As I said, I guessed how the system works. I'm no developer.

Sins of a Solar Empire II, if they do it, will probably have 64 bit multi-core capabilities and High Definition. If it does, I'm buying 3 more 4 GB ram sticks! I forgot to add that making a game 64 bit isn't easy. Go into SoaSE's folder. See all of the .DLL files? They need to be 64 bit. I think that Bink doesn't have 64 bit video player, nor does the Firelight Technologies have a 64 bit version of FMOD.DLL . Don't even get sta
