Reply to Yet another person's beta feedback in Beta Feedback Sins Forums

I don't understand how we are suppose to test this beta 2, if Vasari and Advent aren't going to make mines. That means us TEC players cant tell how effective scouts are/will be to remove /detect. Plus no one will know for sure how the game will eventually run on their rig if the cause of most of the crashes and lockups are not there. Im sure the devs will impement the mines soon enough, but we are not testing the FULL game and ALL the varitables. On another note..still don't s

Reply to A suggestion for dynamic ship movement in Beta Feedback Sins Forums

I don't have a problem with the caps and frigates duking it out, what I don't like is when ships are on TOP of each other firing away. Almost like that Police Squad with Leslie Nelsien having a shootout from behind garbage cans 3 feet away from each other. Is their a way so that ships keep a minimum distance from each other? If so it should be increased, space battles are meant to be LONG range.</

Reply to Fleet and group management in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

I've been playing over 6 months and still don't grasp the differnce between control groups and fleets. I know in a fleet you can set the distance between ships, but thats it? You can command a control group to do anything a fleet can do. Why control groups are not call fleet groups is beyond me......

Single player gamers on the other hand play for the experience and don't want to rush our epic battles.

Reply to Before mines I never used hold, stop, local area...so a little micro is a good thing no? in Strategy Sins Forums

The only problem I have with mines (besides the never before minidump) is to lead your scout around a well for 20 minutes clearing mines. Their should be a slow automated way to remove them, removing them too fast would defeat their purpose. I don't believe in a per well cap, maybe a overall cap so it would force you to only put mines in the wells you REALLY need defended not every one.

There just needs to be some way of automated mine removal that is slightly SLOWER than mine laying, otherwise whats the point?

[quote quoting="post"] I'm quoting the previous poster from (http://forums.impulsedriven.com/334537) because my post requires it: Quoting Mercury Joe, reply 19 I agree, starbases should be a powerhouse if built up that way. I liked that the game lets you make it a trading post, a shipyard, a defensive base, or a multi-purpose base. If you build it as a multipurpose base, the weapons range are a

Reply to FFA with many hard AIs impossible? in Strategy Sins Forums

[quote who="db0" reply="7" id="2019385"] Btw, I use the + and - keys to speed up and slow down the game. While it might take five or six hours to complete just one of these, in game time is usually somewhere around twelve to fifteen hours. Ah, didn't know about this. It might help in battles and large empire managing[/quote] Seems almost sacrilegist to change game speed. Thats what save and pause is for. This is and I hope not ever Command and Conquer.

Reply to Underpowered Starbases in Beta Feedback Sins Forums

[quote who="db0" reply="17" id="2018866"]I couldn't agree more with Advent. We should have the starbases be as different as possible. Personally I could even go for one race foregoing starbases altogether in exchange for something different. It's probably too late now but even the very big similarities that exist in all races annoy me to an extent. Why do all of them have to have the same types of ships instead of going for all out difference. Blizzard does this all the time where no race has
