Weird, never happened to me. The AI never moved past my choke-points and proceeded to attack my unguarded planets. Well, perhaps because I'm quite the turtler and it would be suicide for the enemy to ignore my massive defenses and simply move past them on the way to my unguarded planets.

I created a new large random map and started turtling for 5 hours (which ran out like 5 minutes - this game is addicting with a capital A, well done, Stardock!). Eventually I created such a powerful all-around fleet of captial ships that no one could beat it. I never lost a single captial ship, kept enhancing abilities to complement and alter each other ships' strengths and weaknesses. As a matter of fact, each time the enemy attacked one of my colonies, I simply moved this uber-fleet to the att

[quote]And I very much hope you don't. Keep turn based games turn based and leave the real time stuff to the real time games, please.

At the very least I think they should consider incorporating the beautiful and sleek engine to the battles themselves.
CH-CHING! Pre-ordered :)
This is an awesome list, I completely agree with each and every resolution on this list. Too bad no one is following the examples you guys set regarding DRM (Bioshock, I'm looking at YOU!). You guys are my idols. I hereby swear I have purchased and will continue to purchase every game/expansion you will ever make in the future just to show my support. As Gamespy have quoted a fan regarding Stardock - I love you and I'm happy to give you my money. Everyone can call me a fool for all I ca
Guys, you already got my money on the beta for DA and TA and I can't thank you enough about it. The game is simply the best purchase I've ever made, plus: I feel all warm and tingly inside whenever I purchase one of your games. I simply love the things you do and the way you're doing it, as it is obvious you do it with a passion to games. And for all the "This is just an ad" fellows - Browse to any EA game website. Browse to any Blizzard one. How about a Bethesda one? As a matter of fac
Trying the new Twilight of the Arnor beta (which is mighty impressive, to say the least), I came by a small idea, which might have been suggested before (I apologize in advance if it did): If anyone played Supreme Commander, the game's interface allowed you to zoom all the way out and then zoom all the way in to the location of your mouse cursor, which allowed the player great maneuverability on the map. It's just a minor gripe of mine, but it would be pretty cool if you could do that o
You hardly need my approval, but of course you get my vote. Take your time, espceially sinec the time taken will be spent directly on us - the fans. Keep up the great work, Stardock! And...guys...do try to remember to take a breather once in a while, will you? P.S: DrSpock, you are indeed entitled to your opinion, however my opinion is that you are simply ungrateful to Stardock efforts and that's just uncool.
Sevenhertz, I know for a fact that most of this nonsense is completely exaggerated. You can upgrade anything you want, but as long as you keep your original motherboard, you should be fine. Achillus, if you only had Hyundais or Mitsubishis to choose from, your point might by valid. Better yet, if Hyundais had as much effect on the world economy, and as much publicity as Microsoft, you would be right, too. I'm not a fan of Microsoft, but not a hater as well. I do know, however, why this
Why everybody swears and get so mad all of a sudden? What's wrong with you? Most of you never really tried the new OS, and are basing this on bigotry against the corporation (I'm a REBEL!), or twitched reviews. I never tried the OS, so I really have no opinion whatsoever. I'm sure it has alot of merits, and as of right now, alot of downfalls, like every other darn OS release in recent history. You people have a really short memory. Most of you, or your friends said the same d
I just returned from a cool game in the DA beta version, and I can honestly say: you deserve every credit you got, and get. You did the most amazing work with the diplomacy in this game, something I NEVER saw in a game, and your creativity is truly boundless. You're beyond regular developers. I love you, guys!
Medieval 2 disappointed me to no end. All the others were mediocre. The ONLY games I play right now are GalCiv2 and Company of Heroes, so both of them got my vote. On the overall PC game of the year, it was a hard call, but eventually I chose GalCiv 2. Sure, CoH rocks and all, but GalCiv 2 deserves much more credit, IMO.
OK, sent, thank you everybody!
Thanks, but...errm...Where is this...EndGameSave?
About 15 minutes into the game?!
I started yesterday a new game, medium galaxy, randomized alot of things, Mega events on, custom race (GREAT unique abilities, by the way...please do more!). The game went on great, but then I saw the Dread-Lords. I suggested them an economic and research treaty and they accepted. The next turn, I saw a movie. I thought to myself: "Cool! They made a movie in case you encounter the Dread Lords!" when I finally realised that I was staring at the defeat movie, and then staring at the great
Guys, guys, guys...Spore is not a game. It's an intuitive (hopefuly) program that helps creating games. It looks awesome, but trust me, it will get boring about a week after you'll start playing it, most likely even less for the most of you. It's really just The Sims on steroids. Do you still play The Sims? Then you'll play this, too. Are you like me and got bored from the game the minute you "maxed out" your sim's stats, career, love-life and family (and probably not even then)? That's exactly
Supreme Commander, for sure. Looks amazing. The best thing about it is the promised Macro-centered gameplay instead of Micro-constantly-messing-with-stuff-faster-than-the-other-guy gameplay. I'm really looking forward to playing an RTS that allows me to strategize and plane my next offensive or major defensive without having to baby-sit all of my units and bases. And if Total-Annihilation is any indication, we're in for a real treat. HOWEVER, if Dungeon Siege 1+2+millions of cash-ins+stupid expa
WOW. MoO2 had all that, plus excellent customization of ships and ships' special systems, different habitable planets for different races, cool research options, an uber-evil race you could go and conquer to finish a random game (I'd like to do that in GalCiv2), a special system that was like a game of "king of the hill" in the center of the galaxy with a cool guardian and a paradise of a planet for a prize, some nice cataclysmic special events, cool space monsters, and more. I keep forgetting h
Yes but that tactic only works if you win, in which case you now just lost billions of Soldiers for a now worthless planet OK, what about sending in a couple of troop transports containing only one trooper (or a very very small amount of them) and then just mass-drive the planet to oblivion without sacrificing too much? You wouldn't win the pla
UP really DOES need an overhaul, it means nearly nothing right now, and I would like the UP to have more..."teeth". Like voting for assisting a losing empire, declaring all-out war against a mutual aggressor, an ability to declare war against the UP and try to conquer it and be the master, and having the UP overall an entity of sorts, not just a bunch of lifeless "rules" that pops up every now and then. But I'm not sure about your ideas, man. This sounds like something out of a econom
Already PreOrdered. 'Nuff said.
When and where can I PreOrder?!?!?!?!?!!
