Reply to Pirates Took Over the Galaxy! Please Help! in Dark Avatar GalCiv2 Forums

Hm, this is happening a lot, the pirates of DA can get way too overpowered, I hope it gets fixed in a patch at some point. I've always found the best strategy is kill them until dead, it works trust me. War against these guys can feel like wading through syrup at times, but they can't produce any more ships so keep at it. If you have any allies, get them to help out by giving you ships, if you don't have allies, get some. I was lucky, I had battleships at the time, and

Joe Bob Dork: "Huh, there is this thing I hate in the game. It completely unbalances the game, and by far, it's the one thing that's killing the game for me." Smart Player: "Um.. turn that feature off then. That's why there are a ton of choosable options in the game, to customize the game how you want it." Joe Bob Dork: "No, I can't do that.

But then the Mega Events come along to wreck the strategy aspect entirely. They were designed to spice up the game, if you're new (lets face it, how could you not be) TURN THEM OFF, it's like when someone doesn't like a TV show, CHANGE THE DAMN CHANNEL, if you don't like mega events turn...them...off, why complain about something that can be remedied with a click of a mouse. If you had a headache would you run down to the doctors and complain or

Reply to February (is not) SOASE BETA month!!!!! in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

Knowing them they'll probably release it at 11:59pm on 28th of February. I'm happy to wait though, since I'm not getting the beta anyway but it does make sense that the beta should be ready, yes I know betas generally aren't supposed to be perfect but they must be in some semblance playable. At the end of the day it is up to Ironclad and to be honest it doesn't matter when you get it, as long a

I think the TEC cannot possibly do effective hits and runs, their ships simply are too weak to stand up to mind-infiltration or the super fast Vasari Good point, the TEC seem to be winning this battle though

Um...if you hate the game so much, why are you even a member of the boards? If you wanna complain take it to the Gamespot forum, this is for fans of the game who deliver only constructive criticism and don't have their minds already made up as you so obviously do.

I said that because they seem to have the broadest amount of options open to them, you want big fleet, you have big fleet, you want hit and run tactics, you do hit and run tactics, you want to build vast riches, you build vast riches. Many options open to the TEC aren't for the other two, the Advent probably favour using mental powers over all out assault(brain over brawn in the most literal sense), the Vasari cannot build a large fleet, so open warfare is most likely limited to be a la

Reply to 3 races.... 4 tech tree's.... what is going on?!?!?!?! in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

ask yourself, does that really qualify as another tech tree? It could be different variants of the "Anti bad guy" machine, or it could be a long line of prerequisites from a giant one. All of this is pure speculation since Ironclad seem adamant on keeping this a secret. Who knows it could somehow be related to "the Sins of our past" mentioned in the trailer.

Just wandering off topic a bit, a like how in the screenshot planets closest to the star are molten while the habitable ones are an adequate distance out, mundane I know but you don't see it often. I really don't think that the Vasari's pursuers are a race Yes it could very well be an entity or some dark force etc. The fourth tech tree maybe some "anti bad guy machine".

Reply to Campaign details? in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

am pretty sure that they woulnd try to create an entirely new universe(with a backstory) to screw up on the campaign. I am equally sure that they wouldn't create a new universe then NOT advance the story in game.

To be honest, even though I will most likely play as the TEC, I will use the Vasari philosophy of sowing lies and dissent, as well as performing hit and run maneouvres. Also with the TEC they can use their vast economy as a weapon, and at the end of the day, if they don't like, they can file a complaint with my fleet. As far as the difficulty of each race goes I'd say: TEC: Beginner, a great race to start out the game with, they have a good economy and have most avenues open to

Burger King Quad Stacker You are a much braver (or hungrier) man than I. Did they at least give you a t-shirt "I almost vomited at Burger King and all I got was this lousy t-shirt...and a warning from my doctor". That said I did eat two steaks once...that was a good day.
