Freespace 2 This game has been mentioned 3 times in the past 10 minutes...excellent! The explosions look pretty neat, couldn't hurt for a visual overhaul, but I can't complain (I'm just going on screenshots btw).

Typical, as soon as a New England comes along the old one is forgotten . If it wasn't for British summertime it'd be 9:56pm instead of 10:56pm, oh well, may as well stay up now.

Damn you Warnstaff, I was just gonna suggest that grrr! anyone played Freespace 2? Yes (FS2 ftw!). I agree the nebulae look fantastic (especially with SCP enhancements). The only concern is that in Sins some ships (esp. TEC) may be difficult to see against a blackish background.

Reply to Will this end up like Nexus? in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

As spectacular as the Nexus nuke seemed, I can't get over the fact that it is just the screen going white. I think with all the hype around Sins, it should make at least a respectable profit.

I love the way the explosion engulfes the ship, very BSG. I laugh at your puny planetary shield, mortal Uh oh, it looks like GalCiv induced megalomania is seeping into Sins as well!

Reply to A real Solar System in Beta Feedback Sins Forums

At the end of the day gameplay does indeed conquer realism. For example, take Universal Combat by Dreamcatcher games. It was a super accurate simulation, MASSIVE planets and even more MASSIVE solar systems (over 200,000 points of interest). FANTASTIC combat system etc etc. However, it took the better part of a day to traverse a couple of systems which themselves are so huge you were unlikely to run into another ship to use the FANTASTIC combat system. You were likely just to ge

Hi-de-hi welcome to the SOASE forums, always great to have new people interested in the game. There's only one rule on the SOASE forums Lodoss, Mongoose is always right...

Reply to Gfx, will it be improved? in Beta Feedback Sins Forums

Looking at the Beta screenshots the only ships I can see need improving are the Kol battleships, up close the textures look a bit low res.

I like the little "Allied forces under attack" announcements. Screenies b-e-a-utiful but if the graphics get much better I'm gonna need a new PC (or an upgrade).

Reply to Warp inhibiter Frigs in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

Idea (maybe racial) You mean radical? This idea was discussed a while ago, long before the Beta came out, I believe the conclusion was that the best way to destroy these runabouts is let them settle in a gravity well and then jump them.

Maybe the Gods knew you were offering up Schematicsninjas and attempted to thwart you...by posting two threads, they work in mysterious ways.

"Why are you reading this thread and not playing the Beta?" we will sacrifice one (1) incarnation of SchematicsNinja to the forum deities 5 or 6 more threads oughta do it...but do the Gods really want Schematicsninjas?

I think it would be Stardock's, seeing as Yarlen seems to be the head honcho when it comes to all things beta, could be wrong though.

The address bar on e-mails I've got from Stardock states they are in Plymouth, Michigan. Ironclad are on the west coast, in Vancouver, Canada.
