Well .. I also noticed that there are some screwbals that think tat everything is allright with our oil consumtion :D when it will run out there are other technologies that are just consealed because of oil compnaies ... such irrespnsible conspiracy theory wishfull thing is just scary ... on the arab side well its possible that coutries ike oan will survie it but ... face it they are building somthing in a desert wasteland there fore with a sudden stop of cash flow there wil lbe a lot o

well there is a another point ... now you are forced to focus all the fleet on individual ships, if there would be performance degradation due to dmg, spreading the dmg across the fleet becomes viable

Hai? .. Embargo skill on a homeworld? Em... who or what are we embargoing from? homeworld from homeworld? As i under stand embargo is cuting off money and resorces flow of a planet form the rest of the empire ... emm so how DO you embargo a one-planet-empire? oh well another little game mechanic thingie that just doesnt have a realistic feel to it.

Ok here arte my 0.02$ - Line of Sight :D ... its space and space is WAST ... You wouldnt get instant intel about planets unless there are already probes in system (think scout ships spec ability modification) :D the info should be reveal in phases like 10s in system .. only nearby radar blimbs are revelaed. 20s nearby blimbs are revield by specific ship/building/obect also far away blimbs are revealed, 30s far away blimbs are revealed as per class .. but ofcorse a fleet behind the other sid

Well - no mater what you say thias is THE ONLY multiplayer game I have problems with Warcraft 3, Homeworld, Diablo 2, Civ4, WoW . .all work perfectly well. torrents also using the game ports .. and why shouldnt they ... the ports are forwarded and the firewall is open for the app's. instead of the NAT bul%&*# tell me WHY is it using high port nomber to connect to someone (if I understud you correctly) The funny thing is i can join to some ... wel actually I have been able to join to only

uTorrent says ports 6000 6112 6101(I set as game port) are open when I test them. .. anyway I SHOULD be able to atleast JOIN the games even if im behind a firewall

Well the trick is .. You somtimes have to be RUNNING the isntaled firewall for games to work .. (remember one time spending half of lan party trying to figure out whats wrong with on PC not connecting to others) but I'm still having the same problem as above... no firewall TCP UDP 6000-6120 port range forwarded ... Battlenet (warcraft 3) Works great (can host and all) Civ4 also. SoaSE gives me firewall nonsence (refused by host when joining and Warning message then trying to Hos

Well I have a great Idea :D Since My bank transaction system is kinda screwed up I guess i'll go Download the torerent while I'll sleep and maybe tomorrow My bank will be kind enought to process my transaction (and since its still very peacefull after the Chrismas shoping spree I'll have a lot of time to beat the crap out of it until the transactions are processed) Hopefully when i get back home I'll have my SN :D AND i'll have a fully downloaded setup file to apply it to :D I just hope it wont

Well :D I got my Stardock Email a couple of hours ago ... guess what It said "transaction failed" and no SN - talk about all the exitment going down the toilet. While them oney is reserved on my Visa Account ... (its not my main) ok no problems :D Strange ... paypal Works, WoW works SD doesnt. but Oh well :D I thought Lets Try Tokens :D its 10 tokkens for 70$ :D a bargain ... but first ... lets do some internal cash transfere to my paypal account .. the reseved sum is still locked so

didnt help ... oh well ... i'll wory abouit once I get my SN

Dam ... it's 18:45 here and still 5+ h to go .. atleast what the countdown says. DAM Edit: Sttange .. You ppl say youre dloading Sins ... but here in Europe its stil showing v0.7

Another Qestion .. since thsi will be the firs game I'll be downloading through SD Central ... could anyone share their experience on Day 1 Download performance? Will I be able to max my 4mbit conection?

Well ... al your mentioned games (Quake, CnC) have Levels - and very detailed levels While Sins is .. vacum. ofcourse I would like a biger game :D but only if big comes in a form of Big textures, BIg models, HQ Sound and not Bad compresion.

Well I from experience can tell you going Dual from single is A HUGE improvement at least in general system responsiveness while going Quad the effect isn't. its still there but on single/dual core(rare) aplications its not that large of an impact :D Vista runs smooth .. well sortof smooth ... i find HDD is usually the bigest bottleneck especialiy for multithreading. Still Quads are quite Cheap these days - yes they cant OC a lot, but as far as gaming goes avarage joe usually runs out o
