[quote who="wbino49" reply="4629" id="3435292"] Any thought of making tractor beams a tech you have to research? Its so powerful it would even be worth waiting for mid game.[/quote] I've been running this thru my head, and I'm not sure how I feel about it yet.....

[quote who="Heavenfall" reply="15" id="3435199"] Imho it is fairly obvious that it is acting with good intent. The Predator is a necessary evil as part of the Golden Path after all. It is some utilitarian morality. [/quote] I thin the biggest argument would be "Does the ends justify the means" argument..... yes, the Golden Path was meant to save Humanity,... but at what cost?

[quote who="GeomanNL" reply="11" id="3433419"] In Dune book 4, the line between good and bad is somewhat blurred. Is Leto the God-Emperor a good worm-guy, or is he evil? I cannot tell, this book might also fall in this category. [/quote] I'm a huge Dune fan, and that is an excellent question... I would love to debate this more, but it would give the book away... let's just say Leto I
[quote who="Kantok" reply="10" id="3433417"] The problem with telling you books where the bad guys win is that, unless the bad guy is also the protagonist, you're ruining the ending of the book.

EDIT: I see now, it's the beta for the game. Damn, I didn't think they were going to do any more patches for the core game. Curious. [/quote] I think the beta is a patch for Stellar Phenom.

Another easy way is to a super fast Titan is to just make a custom map in Galaxy Forge and give yourself a Titan, or a ton of $$$ and resources, and 4 military labs. then it just takes a few minutes game time to research and build one. I would still consider it cheating, but you don't need a cheat code to do it. Plus if you're making a custom map, you can also design the opposition to whatever you feel like experimenting your titan against.
[quote who="NewHorizons" reply="4577" id="3430052"] I have seen similar things with other race's SBs as well, eg Fed SB with a Cardassian SB name. It may be a side effect of loading a game that was saved with a different version of the string file. I've not replicated the problem when the number of strings stays the same (between saving and loading a game).[/quote] Yeah, I thought as much.... I seem to remember reading one of the fixes in the patch was changes to th

I'm playing a 1 on 4 game right now as the Borg.... even at 4 against me, I'm way OP and there's no way I can lose now, so I should just quit the at this point. But since the other races are basically giving me free ships to assimilate, this might give me a c
I downloaded SoA2.0.6.8 last night and I'm playing one of the SoA Random maps... and so far it's been awesome. Couple of nice surprises I won't bother to mention and spoil for you all... One small glitch, when you wave the mouse over the upgrades button, the Borg Uni-Complex regeneration feature shows up as a second Elite Assimilation. I'm also not sure if the Borg Jump Inhibitors are working right... I'm not getting any kind of radius of effect.&n

OK, my opinion??? I love these DLC's!!! I've been playing Sins since it first came out, way before entrenchment and diplomacy and it's finally evolved into the game I always hoped it could be... and I sure hope there are more DLC's to come. I have to tell you about the game I (finally) finished. 16 hours!!! Wow!!! But I should warn you all: Spoilers! If you don't want to know about the new stuff in this DLC, do
