More impressions from a newb.. in Single Player Sins Forums

Heyas all. Been playing the game a few days now. Have been learning more and more with every game. I have played like 4 games so far. Well actually 2 games and then 2 half games I guess is more accurate. Anyway....I just finished a game. I played the "Cynosian Rift" scenario. I played this time as the Vasari and played against a easy economic TEC ai. In comparison to my last game this game went faster so I guess im getting better and learning more. This game took 2:02 for me t

Well Im 38. Over the years Ive played many...many..rts games. Ive just never really gotten in to them much with maybe the exception of Generals when it first came out. I played it pretty hardcore for about 2 months. I loved the fact on it that you could goof around with hackers and do a bit different things then most....but in the end it still was basically a tank rush game like all the others. I even bought C&C3. PLayed single player for a couple nights. Did a few computer scrimmages a

Sunesen... Yeah my second game went pretty similar to yours. I learned alot on it and it lasted about 4 hours. I posted about it on another thread here somewhere. Basically I just kept my bid higher then the other guy...I upgraded all planets to get out of the red and then popped trade ports down everywhere. I basically had 2 fleets. My first fleet had the first TEC capital ship to the far left...then the repair one. Plus about 20 various frigates and I had 2 of those cruisers

That brings up a good point....devs you need to make all the option items hover over with explanations.

Also.....many new players (heck Im a new player) seem to overlook building that first free capital ship. Get that sucker done quick as one Capital ship alone can thwart off any early pirate attacks. Even 7-8 pirate ships are no match for your one Capital ship.

Ahh ok I got it. I just fired my game up....I sent ships to 2 areas I had not been in for a while....once the ships arrived in one area....bam game ended with a victory screen. Pretty awesome actually. Was basically my second game (the first one I quit after an hour as I saw many things I did wrong). On easy difficulty of course. Game time was like 3:53 lol. Took me 4 hours to win it. Is there any of the other scenarios you guys would recommend that you have done that

hmm. Ok I guess I will go fire it up and send out ships to every system looking for them lol. I spent like 15 minutes last night chasing down this one little ship he had flying around was a pain. I dont know how he would have setup another colony but I will start looking. But if all he has is a couple mining platforms in neutral areas that wont matter right?

Hey everyone. Well I just woke up a bit ago...(yeah I know, having my own biz gives these benefits) after playing Sins until 4am. My first real game. I played on the first scenario..the random small map against an Easy Random AI. The game was a real learning experience. Figured out many things during the game I didnt understand before. Figured out the whole pirate thing and bidding to avoid raids. I figured out to pay attention to planetary upgrades to increase like the population one s

Guibs... Yeah I hear you. In my game I actually never got to the other AI lol. I was being hammered over and over though by pirate attacks. I only had one Capital ship and it alone could take out the entire group of pirates. But it made it hard for me to do much as every 10 minutes it seemed there was another raid. Im not familier with the whole bribing pirates thing...will have to look for it here when I start my next game in a few minutes.

[quote] There is a specific colony frigate (first on the left on the bottom row in the frigate build menu), and one capital for every race can colonize also. If you find that you ran out of fleet points, you can scuttle any of your existing ships (Alt+H or the little button below the unit portrait in the center) to recoup some fleet points and allow you to build a colony ship <IMG id=ImageResize_Image_2 src="http://images.stardock.com/smiles/Smile.gif" onload=ImageResizer.createOn(this)

Heyas all. New player here. I just downloaded the game today. Just finished the tutorials and played my first game (sorta) on single player but quit it after about 90 minutes or so. Basically because I had started to learn a few things and saw I had screwed up on some stuff etc and decided it was better to just start over. Anyway...a few qualifiers first... - I only heard about this game about a month ago so very new to the community etc. - Ive played many rts gam
