Reply to Mining & Combat in Star Control IV in Star Control Sins Forums

For me the core of Star Control was the exploration and dealing with weird aliens and so on. The Combat was the weakest element that felt counter to the whole thing to me. You have this ragtag fleet of various races ships... and then you duel them one at a time? Just seems so out of place to me. I never liked the 1v1 melee battles. I'd much rather be able to control all my ships at once. :EDIT: That doesn't mean I necessarily

Reply to What happened to Global Warming? in Life, the Universe and Everything Sins Forums

The thing no one seems to think about, is in the terms of our planets age, we've only just left an Ice Age. We have very little idea of what sort of cycles resulted in the ice age or what a real average of climate variation for this planet is. There is a bloody good chance that our planet is still warming from it's recent (in terms of the planet, not our life spans) deep freeze.

[quote who="DANMAN3712" reply="4911" id="3539751"] Thanks for the info. Yeah we are looking into that. It must be an ability or something that is causing that issue[/quote] Yeah, it is just the ability and the starbase entities aren't referencing each other properly, it's a simple fix but it is somewhat pointless considering the Imperial Starbase will be replaced via the Empire overhaul I'm working on =P

Reply to Chris Roberts--Star Citizen Updates & Info in PC Gaming Sins Forums

I haven't seen anything to make me worried about Star Citizen. If anything I am consistently blown away by the progress they have made so far. Something people seem to forget, is that Chris Roberts is not Tim Schafer. Chris Roberts knows how to deliver and as of yet has never let people down. Contrary to the publisher model, all the money these guys make goes right back into development. There is no one stuffing their pockets with excess cash, the money goes towards

[quote who="Ekko_Tek" reply="11" id="3528598"] It doesn't seem like a game that would lend itself to e-sports - but MP could be extremely fun - not unlike SupCom and Sins. They're ideal games to get your feet wet with online MP RTS because they are slower paced and not twitch/APM skill-based and are easier for 4x or turn based players to relate to.
