Reply to GRG Idea in Sins Diplomacy Sins Forums

I've got a couple of ideas..I don't know if they're any good, so I'll post them for viewing. Looking at the Gauss Rail as a kinetic weapon, I keep coming back to something that I think should be part of the TEC on the whole: Armor penetration. Just looking at GRG (since the rest of that idea is something that can be discussed elsewhere and not derail this thread) it's a big, piercing bullet fired at some insane speed in a place where there is no

Reply to Does a "fear" of experienced (or pro) players keep you from playing Sins online? in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

[quote who="Astax"]More fun to play AI? Hell no. Check out my replay thread. We have lots of fun playing other people. The things that happen in our games are hillarious, nothing liek this will happen with an AI player. Also no ship is deemed inefficient. What are you talkign about? Only cap ships can be rated better or worse. All other frigates are simply used for specific roles, so they can't be rated as "better." They are used for their job, n

Fear of experienced players? Nope. I've had the game since beta, played it since beta. The elitism and spam strategies is what keeps me away. Looking at at least one of the threads in the strategy forum, what I do see is "ONLY PEOPLE WHO PLAY MULTIPLAYER POST IN HERE. NO SINGLE PLAYER PEOPLE!" (https://forums.sinsofasolarempire.com/341116) which makes me very angry in general. F that noise. If that's what I can expect from multiplayer, then I'll happily stay the hell ou

Reply to Cant unpin planets? in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

I've had it happen as well, though I don't have any screenshots or anything. I pinned a planet (a border planet) then unpinned it when I had taken the next in line. (Gaian Crescent, I was taking the Terran Planets while skirmishing with the AI). It refused to unpin. I even scuttled everything in the system and it was still stuck there. So...I'll try to recreate the problem and go from there I suppose.

[Bug] Vasari SB Research and Upgrades in Beta Feedback Sins Forums

Search hasn't pulled up any results for this, if it's been reported then my apologies [e digicons]:blush:[/e] The Vasari SB's can get the Colony Pod upgrade without the research being done. Screenshots follow. I haven't had any other errors in single player, and I haven't gone online yet with the expansion. I'll look into the other upgrades to be sure they're working properly.

Reply to HELP: good MMORPG in Everything Else GalCiv2 Forums

[quote who="eqfan592" reply="24" id="1973188"]Honestly, i'm also looking for a good MMO, though I'm very tired of fantasy ones ( I go way back to UO as well), and I did EVE for a while, but the pace is just a bit slow (though I was in one major fleet battle between two waring corps, and that was pretty cool). Right now, I'm looking to Star Trek Online as my last, great hope for MMO's But I'm also looking for something to hold me off until then. Are there any good space based MMO's
