$39.99 price point?

from Stardock Forums
Brad, Frogboy,

How did the price for this game get marked so low? Don't get me wrong, it's a great thing! I'm just curious. Was MOO3 just overpriced at 49.99? Are you trying to attract more gamers based on this price?

I know those are very basic and superficial questions, but I think you understand my basic question. Thnx.

We're going for mainstream strategy gamers so the game is priced to try to sell more copies rather than fewer at a higher price. ;)

how does one buy a gift certificate download? The nephew is letting me no in a Loud way that he wants the game. (I think his dad really wants it, he was seen hanging around this computer while his son was playing :) )

That's kinda what I figured. Thanks Frogboy.

Do you guys plan on updating your forums to handle all of the traffic you are going to get? Especially once folks start migrating from the MoO3 board to here. Perhaps a better board design?

I think Brad mentioned something about the new SDC having a forum {and chat} function.

This forum is hell on the eyes. It's the opposite of MOO3, the fonts are sharp as hell but too damn small. LOL

SDCentral will use this forum but it'll be in a program.

Here's what it will look like:

That's the WC browser but you can see how message boards look.

If you have any requests for this message board, let us know. Simple stuff mind you, we're not out to create a BBS system. ;)

"SDCentral will use this forum but it'll be in a program."

I'd seriously reccommend setting up a well structured forum e.g. Ultimate Bulletin Board.

This game is amazing and it'll bring in the crowds when the word spreads. Please have a board ready to handle the load effectively or it will be chaos. I've noticed it getting more hectic over the last month as it is!

The minimum I would like to see is spell checking and allowing the user to adjust the font size for his/her own screen.

Color changing the fonts would be nice, I know a lot of people who are colorblind to the color blue, and the blue on blue text in some of the screens is hard for them to read......
