For gamers fed up with paying for DLC in PC Gaming Stardock Forums

Hey everyone I thought this group of people above all else should be the first I contact regarding....what this post is about haha. Hopefully it's alright to post this here, but if not, no hard feelings if this thread gets locked. Basically I'm tired of us gamers getting ripped off for map packs and other DLC, having to pay more for them on top of an already overpriced game. It is not fair and it is not right. Big industry "leaders" (for lack of a better word) release games wi

Reply to Crashes straight to desktop in Technical Sins Forums

I don't get any messages. I have 4 gigs of RAM. It just crashes to the desktop, game exits and no message appears. Also, it's during ICO games.

Those are who the statement is implied towards.

Crashes straight to desktop in Technical Sins Forums

Are the crashes (ie the game just exits randomly) and you're left with the desktop related to "minidump" or any known issue? Or is my OS screwing up again. I never had the problem before, but after this last format I've been having it quite often. It's not a hardware issue. It's usually associated with games that lag where it freezes up for a few seconds across the board.

Reply to Rant about ignorant arrogant players in Sins Multiplayer Sins Forums

So what I gather from this post is that the majority of people posted in this thread have no trust for anyone in this community, whilst the few others have enough decency to recognize the problem and offer solutions. I think I get the trend. My name has been "Gimpy" in game since I bought the game and that's the only player I've had on my account. I also take it that people have polluted this thread with accusations of what you call "smurfing"? Pretty lame term to say the least, but e

With Sins coming out with a second expansion and releasing the Trinity pack in stores, you should see the community grow. Even though it's been out for a while, it hasn't been given much exposure in terms of retail. (coming from mine and friend's across the continent's experience) So once it's out there and you can get it all in one go, I think people will start picking it up and trying it out. Mind you a vast majority won't stay because they'll be kids that don't want to use their br

Rant about ignorant arrogant players in Sins Multiplayer Sins Forums

I've been trying to get into an Entrenchment multiplayer game for a while but keep finding an ignorant and arrogant playerbase. Now I'm not saying that everyone that plays the game is like that but I seem to be having unfortunate luck in that category. The account I play on doesn't have a lot of games played and most of them were games I joined and then everyone bailed or wanted to "start over" so we all left, then it filled up before I could join again. Or in some cases wanting to ge

When battles are happening, game freezes for a second...every second in Technical Sins Forums

As the title says, whenever there's a battle going on in Sins, or Entrenchment, my screen freezes for a second, then goes normal, then a second later it freezes again, then goes back to normal again. It's like a split second skip. I thought at first it was because the buddy I play with doesn't have a great PC and was laggin me, but he says it runs smooth. I can see lasers freezing in mid air for a second, but he can't. I'm running a quad core Q9

Reply to Build Queue [Suggestion] in Sins of a Solar Empire Stardock Forums

Sins is a game that requires a lot of strategy and a lot of brain power to constantly know what's going on. That's what makes Sins Sins! if you start taking that away by adding the suggestion you have put here, that takes so much away from the skill required to play this game properly, as well it will turn Sins into an average RTS, and that's not good. You see it in almost every major RTS franchise out there...it's all the same, they just build mass units and pummel the enemy, whoever has the
