Reply to Constant Crashes.. cause maybe discovered.. in Sins Rebellion Sins Forums

[quote who="Teun-A-Roonius" reply="3" id="3167180"]Try verifying the cache integrity of your game. Steam might replace a few missing or damaged files in case something went wrong during an update in the past.[/quote] I refer to the second-to-last paragraph in my original post. :) Edit: I am now re-installing to see if that'll help.

Constant Crashes.. cause maybe discovered.. in Sins Rebellion Sins Forums

Hi, I am getting intermittent crashes whilst playing. I notice that whenever the game crashes, the steam library list briefly displays Rebellion as "updating xx%" and the "automatically keep this game up-to-date" option is re-enabled. I tried disabling it for troubleshooting, with no luck. As it stands, I can play anywhere from 5-15 minutes after which the game will invariably crash, steam will display updating for a second or two, and then stop - after which I c

[quote who="Ryat" reply="1" id="3164778"]The current setup for Trinity is due to Microsoft and not Ironclad/Stardock. Thankfully, the change to Steam does change Rebellion's file saving to My Documents.[/quote] Ah, that's great. :) I just noticed the appdata folder yet living in the beta and assumed. Need to do more investigating. :P Thanks man!

Teun; I did not know that change had been implemented. That's great. That also means that, as jkmaster points out, you can probably mod your way ouf of them entirely.

[quote who="Teun-A-Roonius" reply="47" id="3120449"]If you make sure the player who ows the Novalith Cannons does not have correct intel on your planets beyond the frontlines than you don't have to place starbases there, assuming no scouts will ever reach those planets. Novaliths are only able to target planets thatare recently scouted for some reason (I think it has to do with a change of the planets' ownership).[/quote] Errr.. no. What you've explored is irell

Change the location of saved games in Technical Sins Forums

Hi, The user files are currently saved on C:\ - in AppData. With more and more people getting SSD's, wouldn't it make sense to be able to move those files? Or at least default them to My Documents like so many other games do, a directory which can be moved within Windows and function on a different drive? Space is a premium with SSD's, as are the amount of reads and writes being done. Could you change this for rebellion launch maybe?

Reply to This game is harder then I remember Maybe I made a mistake pre ordering Rebellion in Strategy Sins Forums

[quote who="EJ107" reply="27" id="3120225"]Try doing 1v1 rather than team games. I find the Ai allies a pain to work with, while the enemy AI usually team up you, as you said. If it's 1v1 then there's no chance of an enemy "ganging up" up on you. If you still struggle then you could try making uneven teams, for example 3 v 2, until you feel you've got the hang of things again. [/quote] 1v1 is too easy though.

TEC generally has some annoying 'features'. Both the insurgency strikes, and the novialiths are completely devastating for a fast paced game. You need a starbase on every, single, planet. And on huge multi-star/planet maps, that's just too much.

I was up two-three levels of research, had colonized Gateway (had to flee from my starting planet due to AI pressure..) and had begun to colonize the resource system to finance my empire. I was struggling just maintaining sufficient defence on the Gateway system - and before I even had enough labs to even think of starting research proper - the AI was sending Novialith shots from all its planets. Maybe I could've done differently, but the AI still seem

I personally would like a superweapon on and off option.[/quote] Yeah, starbases on all planets would be great. ;) In my own experience I was playing Gateway, got the gateway planet and shortly thereafter they started pummeling me with novialiths. I filled the entire neighbouring system withj Nova's and won the

[quote who="DerSenf" reply="10" id="3106296"]Stars can have more than 1 Starbase? Never noticed that. What exactly are the rules for starbases? Do other players' starbases effect anything I do?[/quote] Well, yes, on a star they will affect hull when phasejumping out, making them great for weakening a fleet before they enter your primary fortification. If you get it right, with the advent, for example, you can place four starbases to

Reply to On/Off titan option in Sins Rebellion Sins Forums

[quote who="Darksxx" reply="1" id="3106176"]Doesn't that defeat the whole purpose of this new game? I would have to say that I do not like that Idea and that anyone wanting to not use titans go back to playing the older game if you don't like them. But that's my opinion.[/quote] That's just silly. It's perfectly alright for the titans to be an optional feature within games. There are massive gameplay overhauls to be had vs diplomancy - that you shouldn&
