I like the writer's sense of humor! And his last name is Butts lol. I also like how Yarlen created a thread on the same thing...but nobody commented lol. Now I know from experience that many people are shaking their heads, saying, "there is no way all that is going to run on my hunk-of-junk computer." Before March I was a bit skeptical myself, as I didn't know for sure if Sins would scale as well as we wanted, because we hadn't tested it in the p

You wont be able to steal enemy ships, but the Advent will be able to temporary take control of ships for a period of time, but not capital ships Through mind control I take it? Couldn't you just tell the crew to commit suicide and then board the ship?

Thats almost as bad as the time my LRMFs fired their missiles at a phase jumping ship, and the missiles followed the ship very slowly via the phase lane.... and then the ship returned and the missiles turned around and followed the ship back! Small random bugs are funny

While playing the Sins Beta 2, I was sort of reminded of my days playing Homeworld. One of the gameplay features that I love in HW was the ability to steal my oppenents ships. I think that Sins would be more interesting if you could do that (especially if it allows you to sell the ships on the blackmarket, assuming that you don't have the logsitics to support it). Also, you could expand on that idea. Imagine being able to set up a gravity well generator in the

For XP: X\Documentsandsettings\ you user name" \ AppData\Ironclad Games\ Sins of a Solar Empire/recordedgame. X stand for the same thing as it did in sand's post.

I kinda want the pro version but its 400 bones... and 1 game would make it $450. Another controller or game would make it $500. I'm not so sure I can get this for X-mas + my birthday (they're less than a month away from each other so if I want something big I ask for it for both). I wish we could win the lottery, but I have a greater chance of getting hit by lightning and getting the 360 as a get

I have a PS2, a 360 and a ramped up PC yet I still catch myself playing Day of the Tentacle, Monkey Island and...get this...I go outside . LMAO! The old Lucasarts games! Yeah, I don't really go outside all that much, but I am doing Marching Band (starts Thursday ) I'm wanting a 360 more and more... if I get one I might get Halo 3.. but I really

Same here, I've pretty much skipped the 360... Its too casual... The only next-gen I have is the Wii (I will always love Nintendo..). I kinda want a PS3 because my PS2 broke so I have a whole ton of PS2 games just lying around...but I want a 360 because of Beautiful Katamari...but I want a new computer because of Spore and SINS. I think I'll get a 360 and then a new compy...hopefully my sister will get another PS2.

but what about the 4th race the Vasari are fleeing from? Huh Huh... I think those Vasari are just going mad... and their just running from that disease or whatever is causing it.

K, first has some Advent ships and TEC structures (The trade port behind the 2 Advent ships for example). Definitely some cobalts in there... Second one has what appears to be the Vasari and Advent battling (fighters in the bottom right are definitely advent symbols). In the third I can pick out some ships that I KNOW are Advent so it must be another Advent vs Vasari thing. Yarlen, am I right or am I right?

I used to be interested in this game to the point of obsession, but thought of a long wait drained my enthusiasm, in fact I get depressed talking about it *goes off and injects self with Halo 3*. I will most likely still buy this thing, although I fear I may be drawing a pension when it *finally* comes out. So did I, and the wait and lack of updates made me...bored and stuff. <b

Gas giants themselves are obviously not habitable, but they are micro "solar systems" in their own right. Some could very well be stars that failed to ignite. One theory is that Jupiter is one such "Failed" star. But yes, people have already asked for gas giants. I think its a good idea but it is more work for Stardock and Ironclad....

It was a Terran planet, just about touching the local star. Not the star's grave well; the star itself. Screenshots would help. (btw you can edit you posts so you don't need to double post)

Now thats strategy, just cant wait the "OMG Choke points shouldnt exist in space" argument again, it was quite entertaining the first 3 times, then it got dull. What spelling error? The missing ' in haven't. I never put in apostrophes in any conjoined word, waste of time. Cool turrets though. Personally I cant wait till building are placed in 3D making your own rings out of turrets would be sooo much more fun. Yeah, it was the

Personally, I fortify all my planets from any kind of assault. I haven't had 1 planet fall to the pirates, let alone 3. Yeah, that or I have a garrison there. I usually build lots of defenses when I know I won't be advancing for awhile and I also build phase jump inhibitors (luckily in my latest game, one planet is blocking all my others from the AI, the picture below) <img src="http://i119.photobucket.c
