Is that happening to just Sins or every other Impulse game as well? If Sins wasn't completely uninstalled in the first place, Impulse might still remember the original location. If you haven't done it already, better contact [email protected] Have you tried "Prompt for install directory" to see if it supersedes that faulty install location?

You have three different software types, and you can choose one distinct install location for each type: - My Desktop - My Games - My Tools Did you choose the appropriate type of software first and then clicked on "Change..."? Hope that helps. Good luck.

Huzzah! Congratulations to Brad and everyone at Stardock. Throughout challenges, it is the right attitude that truly makes the difference. [e digicons]:thumbsup:[/e]
If Stardock would actively refuse games with DRM to get into Impulse, a brand new digital distribution platform, what do you think would happen? Would publishers and developers say "I'm sorry for that, I'll change my ways" or "I have better and more compliant distributors than you to work with". Change does not happen over night and principle can't be dictated without the power to influence, especially when you're trying to compete with Steam's near monopoly (which is eager to pl
[quote who="elias001" reply="12" id="1986266"]I share Frogboy's view on DRM, but considering Frogboy's position within Stardock, it does not favorable or compatible with EA's view on DRM usage in their games and hence EA willl interpret that there will be a clash in IP protection philosophy.

Despite the fact that those games are only initially available in North America, this is a
Sins doesn't have DRM but it has constant updates that can only be accessed from Impulse. Like it or not, that has been a successful combination for sales versus piracy which in turn keeps the good stuff coming. A recent example, World of Goo, has showed that devs/publishers can't be that user-friendly. However, Sins has demonstrated that users can still be well served while avoiding overbearing DRMs. Cheers!

It is only logical that Impulse would get better and better... [e digicons]:fuzzy:[/e]
It should be noted that Stardock, as a game publisher, is changing the way on how they do business. A more ambitious view towards growth maybe? Whatever the reason, it's a reasonable way to milk the cow. It meets expectations on good quality content with development costs. I'm more concerned

Did I hear about a fantasy strategy game? W00t! Got to stay alive for the next 3 years! :LOL:
Please do make additional time for a Baldur's Gate type of game. That would be excellent! Anyone with $8 million to spare? :D
[quote]To learn the game I launched a few medium size maps with one AI easy in my team and another in the ennemy team (2vs1), I locked teams and deactivated pirates.That way, I lived long enough to learn the game and studied the AI behaviour on my ally at the same time.After a few games I noticed I was better than the AI and ready to go on my own[/quote] It's not the first time this kind of post shows up. The game should offer an option, similar as the one mentioned, for novice players.
What's with the 0.1 less in that score? :( It's another good review, nevertheless :CONGRAT:
Good review. Good score. Not a surprise anyway. :) I'll be looking forward for the single-player campaign in the expansion, which has everything to be awesome. :CONGRAT:
What's even better, beyond the excellent reviews this game is having, is the incredible potential to rise to new heights! :)
:CONGRAT: :HOT: This is one hot game they made.
It was interesting until the WTF part. That's a really clever way to expose ideas...
I've been asking for something like this since the game was released. So, YES a thousand times over. /signed
