Well I doubt they will put my first choice in the game : SPACE NINJAS Else I hope at least we will be able to change the colors of our ships... Ship upgrading sucks, thats why I hated SOTS, I got tired of upgrading my engines for the 10th time, lol.....

And suprisingly enough Spore was on all three lists.... Spore...... hmmm never heard of it... /Sarcasm
Good news like this should mean that the beta will be out sooner... *hint hint* right? oh and a link would have been nice..... IGN Link
I recall someone said it supports widescreen!
Also sorry for being off topic, but what is the benefit of digital downloading? You get it sooner than if you would go to the store.... But also! You don't have to pay taxes on it! I am going the way of digital download AND have them ship me the game! <img src="http://images.stardock.com/gc2/T_DL/smiles/Congrats.gif" border=0 ALIGN="ab
Yes the BETA! Back on Topic!
Okey dokey, I'll wear a diaper from now on.
Blair Fraser January 21, 2007 01:00:05 Reply #30 Since you played homeworld its probably best to draw a comparison to that. Homeworld was about taking your fleet and engaging other fleets. Essentially, your mothership was your homebase and there were resource units floating around. When you defeated the other fleet the game was over. In Sins, your home
i think the sun is in the background and it looks sorta cloudy (space clouds?) so the sun isn't blaring right through... I think the planets look GREAT! Judgeing by the orientation (of ships in all the shots so far), I must sadly conclude that the ships reori
lol....
no, sorry if i was misunderstood i wasn't talking about that thing above the ship. i was referring to orientation of the camera taking the screen shot everything appears to be pointed up an to the left not level to the camera. I think its done for dramatic effect... its makes it look more 3D, lol...
i am interested in angle the picture seems to be taken at will we really be able to orient the camera like that. if so will we be able to orient our ships in any directing not just different levels. but i am loving the way things are looking. I don't think its a wormhole... I think its just beam refraction off the shields...
2D sprites for angering the gods! noooooooooooooooooooooo!
Those are space elevators. They haul goods from the planet into orbit and vice-versa. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/gc2/T_DL/smiles/Gasp.gif" bor
every online multi-player team game i play , I use ventrillo with friends! might be unfair to the other team, but they could be using a chat program too, and not have said anything.... and I hate losing due to poor communication with teammates....
This thread doesn't need to be used anymore! *points to the new screenie* haha true, i can start tomorrow with one that says , no new sins news in 1 day, ZOMG! lol......
ya it looks like it has SHIELDS! also..... I don't like the TEC ships in yellow, BLUE FTW! and...... damn whatever is hitting that ships shields must be powerful, look at the size of that beam!
so be goddamn CAREFUL ironclad! don't be yelling at the developers , else we might all get the first beta with 8 bit graphics as punishment, lol....
my dream just came true! what are those four objects on the planet all connected by glowing beams?
But it does make for spectacular battles (which are chaotic in real life) and a extra depth of realism, some strategy games, such as Empire: Dawn of the Modern World, have you ordering units in ones, with a single batch consisting of roughly 16-24, that's not how it is! Governments DO order units in the hundreds or thousands! i know <img src
The usual mistake people make is creating a galaxy of 200 stars in a spherical shape, than complain how confusing it is and how long the game is... A prefered number is more like 30. thats what happened in SOTS... it was one big ball shaped mess...

The map implimentation is just horrible, I still can't get over who would have approved it... Also it would have been nice to see distances between planets without having to click between them...
Hmmm its Friday the 19th, I believe in my dream, Ironclad posted a new screenshot or wallpaper today, or some juicy information update on the main site..... Sadly I woke up and there was no updates....
As others have said, if you miss beta 1 and pre-order later, you'll have to wait until beta 2 before you'll be able to try out the game. If you miss beta 2, you'll have to wait until the final version is released. Beta 2 is set for this spring. brain.....hurts....... wait.. so I can still get into the first BETA if I pre-order the day o
