Reply to Copies sold? in Demigod Demigod Forums

I'm one of the "complete casual noobs" that DalzK talks about. I bought the game because I love Stardock and I thought the game was pretty good... I don't know how many would play it offline singleplayer regularly other than me. I can say that Rostrom is correct about custom content being vital to multiplayer. WC3 was one of the few multiplayer games that I enjoyed because of all the different custom maps you pretty much get for free.

Reply to Can the AI play for you? in Dark Avatar GalCiv2 Forums

Thank you anyway. It moves a bit too quickly for my computer. However, I had not known you could take over as a computer race. It's quite funny to stomp around as the Dread Lords.

Can the AI play for you? in Dark Avatar GalCiv2 Forums

I was wondering if there was a way to use cheats to make the AI player play as your civilization. I know how to change your civilization with another player's by using control + shift + N, but I was wondering if I could have the AI play as my civilization while I watch. I was hoping to be able to observe the AI's actions and improve my skill through those observations while enjoying the apparent political carnage that results from high-level AI players killing each other.

Reply to Make a list of your strategy (RTS, 4X, etc) experience here. in PC Gaming Sins Forums

My games! Most fun ones: Battle for Middle Earth (simple, fun, easy to learn and play game) Sins of a Solar Empire (If I didn't like it, would I be here?) Warcraft 3: Frozen Throne (Not the actual game, but the map-making community is quite helpful and nice) (Hate DOTA) Others: Battle for Middle Earth II (Never really captured my appeal) Rise of Legends (Would not even work on my computer) Medieval II, Total War (Worked slowly on my computer) (On a side

Reply to Why I have trouble playing starcraft. in PC Gaming Sins Forums

Most of us know that feeling. That wonderful, estatic feeling you get when you look at the debris field around their planet. That fuzzy feeling you get when you blow up their level 10 capital ship in a giant explosion. Maybe other games as well, from seeing marines torn to pieces to watching a bunch of dwarves on fire and running around in a panic, we all love that feeling. I haven't felt it yet in SoaSE, because I pretty much suck at the game. Still fun though.

Reply to Who hates EA games in PC Gaming Sins Forums

I do not hate EA. They are not my favorite (Stardock, Blizzard) but they are nowhere as horrible as some other games from other publishers/developers. I have faced very few problems with EA's games. I played BFME (the first one). It was fun, could run on my computer, and had very few problems. I bought BFME II, and I thought it was horrible. Just wasn't my thing. Simcity 4 was fun. Every Madden game I have played was not fun. It is a matter of opinion, influence, and preferences of g

Reply to Lack of Diplomacy Screen Support in Multiplayer Organizer Sins Forums

I want to be able to place bounties on allied teams. The fact that if he takes a planet you wanted and you want just a LITTLE revenge but can't get it ticks me off. In relation to your statement, I would like a slider as well. The click-click click-click gets annoying... and takes too long.

Reply to Sins makes computer turn off in Technical Sins Forums

Wow... so many problems with Sins. Strange then, that I have a Vista Compaq (don't know the actual specifics, not good w/ technical stuff) that has less RAM than the game requires, and it works fine. I mean, I have to keep all visual stuff on low to not have it freeze, but it works fine on normal settings. Your problem seems bad, but I am glad to see that it fixed itself.

Reply to Ship Cloaking!!! Modding Editing in Sins Modding Sins Forums

Wait... why would cloaking be good? The game seems to be focused on war... as in, booms and explosions and PEW PEW PEW, not a cloak and hide. Also, what ships are we applying it to? Light ships like scouts and cobalts I can understand, but capitals are bad. Maybe the marauder capitals, but please don't give the Kol Battleship cloaking. PLEASE don't give the Kol cloaking.

I like the idea, I need some giant defense thing that I can then spam to my pleasure. :D I would think it would take tactical slots (defense slots) not logistic, unless it would offer trade and refinery operation. I say only tactical, and have lots of fighters, maybe a few basic frigates, and lots of guns. Emphasis on lots of guns. Did I say lots of guns?

Reply to Please help a new player in Strategy Sins Forums

I like the Vasari, but I can never win as them. I don't see that you upgrade the planets, so make sure to upgrade their infrastructure so they are no longer liabilities. The planet development screen is where you do it, and you can also upgrade other things like number of tactical buildings. Since it is your main credit income, you must be sure to keep up on it.

Reply to Multiplayer Crashes in Technical Sins Forums

Very happy to see the support given by Ironclad. I think it is nice to see a company finally helping it's customers with bugs, unlike some other companies (Currently giving EA a scowl) so keep it up and thanks. :CONGRAT: :) :D

Reply to Conquering Planet:why only bombardment in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

I believe the Advent "convince" humans to come over to the Unity. Just a theory, not sure, but that seems most likely. As an afterthought, I like to enslave populations. The appeal of locking down a planet so that you just stay in orbit, ready to kill all at any time, gives you a sense of control... and awesomeness. Just my opinion.
