PS: What was with all the "Edits:....?" Better than reposting, which annoys some people . You said I have a shaky grasp on the English language.

Did not attack a single exploration ship that came through my systems, and your placment of the defense platforms leaves an area at the edge of your system you cannot see, nor protect, so unless you have ships posted there you will never see the ships enter and exit your sector. Is this part of the Game??? if so, WHY? Uh, what? You always see the enemy if he's in your system (and if he's jumping in with the first Psidar tech... the second one doesn

Perhaps varying sized stars... binary and trinary star systems are a must, IMO, in three possible flavors: Each star directly connected to each other, then branching outward; each star connected via various planets; and all three stars in one grav well (not really a good idea, but could be funny). Varying powers could include anti-matter / shield regen boosts, anti-mater / shield regen / hull regen nerfs , doing shield only or regular damage, boosting damage dealt, and re

Oh Kosc may have his eating impliments, but I have the Death Star Fine, you get the death star? I get the Manticore Home Fleet, completely retrofitted with Appolo. And with Honor Harrington in command.

I dont know, but most likely you just dont have any alternate roots. Alternate roots? O.o If you mean alternate routes, yes, I had them. It would have been the (very) long way around in some cases , but I had them.

How about... 1) Press and hold the "Z axis key" 2) Press and hold RMB on the desired X,Y co-ordinates 3) Move it up and down and watch the arrow move Slightly easier to deal with, IMO

For what purpose, obsticles? Wormholes could act as "instant" phase lanes that just require the charge-up to "jump" across inter-stellar distances, providing an interesting wrinkle in combat situations.

Reply to chasing vs intercepting in Beta Feedback Sins Forums

What exactly is your problem, because you aren't very clear. Do you mean the fact that ships will always head straight for whatever they want to kill, rather than "cut the corner" when the enemy vessel is going at an angle to them (instead of directly towards or directly away)?

Reply to What is this community's opinion of competitive multiplayer? in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

I meant this as an edit, but also I'm looking forward to the opportunity to learn that would provide me -- SupCom competition helped me learn how to not just sit in my base and tech up with a turtle strategy. I'm hoping that this game will help me learn how to split up my forces and have more than one fleet at a time (rather than mass everyone together).

Reply to What is this community's opinion of competitive multiplayer? in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

Well, I enjoy playing the occasional ranked game of SupCom... wouldn't mind the same thing for this game. My only real complain with SupCom was the way the early game overwhelmed the late game unless one side decided to prolong the suffering of the other, or the sides were (almost) evenly matched.

I NEVER have malware in my PC : I manage a very clean system (and being "skeptical and cautious" helps!). Which is my point I'm referring to the fact that every once in a while you'll see "drivers" of some kind availalbe for download that are, in fact, malware <b

Reply to What if gravity wells WERE gravity wells? in Sins Modding Sins Forums

It's there: ships move faster when flying towards a source of gravity and slower when flying away from it. But... speed outgoing is the same as speed ingoing! (OK, so you don't have realistic acceleration based physics... this is still a step forward. I think.)

Reply to Personalized Empire Logos? in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

The only way to get logos imprinted on the ships would be to mod the skin files for each ship. To bad the Dev's didn't incorporate some kind of build in "seal" system, where the race's icon would automatically get appended to each ship... in place of the way most (all?) ships have their names / numbers printed on them.

Reply to Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance in Games Sins Forums

i've already made about 150 models of the Ships on Computer Aided Design. Although CAD is not used for game-making, i have nothing else and I'm only sixteen so nothing is realistic yet. So my parents and family and friends are quite impressed. Of course thats impressive. But it doesn't get you anywhere near a game. And I've seen way to many, very professional looking, open source games drag on forever... or just fall apart... to ever be impressed by on
