Things I dislike about steam: They take a very long time to update their stuff when patches come out. And if there are not many customers on a game they won't update it at all. I'm not sure what the quota is for bothering to update a game for them. Go ahead and look on their site. Some games are Way behind on the latest updates and it is the final update as far as they are concerned but the game's publisher or official site has more updates that sadly will not work with steam. <p

All of you that beleive what you have been told about global warming are cattle. Study geology and find out why. The ice ages and volcanoes will do wonders for your brains. Al Gore needs to live up to his last name get fed to the sharks. Just one volcanic erruption puts so much greenhouse gasses in the atmosphere that we havn't cought up with the first few, count them on one hand, erruptions that have occurred since the earth was formed. Venus is a runnaway greenhouse effect because

Terror Stars are fluff. I only used them in one game. They are completely useless the way they are at the moment. I had one dissapear but it was still there. I just happened to click on what I thought was empty space and I accidently found my terror star, the galactic teddy bear. All graphics for it were gone and it had moved away from the star it blew away. But before I could get my fleet to defend, again, my new found "superweapon???", it got blown away. They are useless. No mo

[quote]Should we then be held responsible? Do you blame WalMart because a game they sold is broken by a patch?[/quote] Yes! And for some reason Walmart gives me my money back and sends the PC game back to the people who sold it to them. (I was able to do that with a different "game" I bought in the store.) I guess I'm lucky with my particular geographic Walmart store. SpaceForce2 was wrose without the patches. But according to the forums Joystick support is still

[e digicons]:puke:[/e] SpaceForce2 Rouge Universe goes against the gammer bill of rights that Stardock released. Why the #*^$#$#$&!!@! is it being sold on impulse? I haven't bought it and I'm not going to. It has been "patched" to version 1.2 but according to official game site's own forum most everyone is not happy. Unless you have a supped up intel quad core computer with two rediculously powerful nvidia graphics cards (SLI) it is totally unplayabl

Um.... The game is already 3d. The map turns into 2d when you zoom a certain distance from it so you can still see everything with symbols. (Very usefull for immense galaxies.) The strategic map is 3D. You can zoom in to a ship, a planet, anything and move around it. Routate and change the viewing angle. It is not a 2d game. I stated before the map becomes 2d when you zoom out far enough and everything is shown with symbols.

Hi. I feel a little sheepish comming on the forums again. I don't mean to take over this thread or cause trouble like I have in the past. I would like to apologize for being a extreamly rude person. (That's a huge understatement!) Frankly I am surprised I havn't been banned. I'm also surprised I haven't received some sort of legal correspondence telling me to knock it off. I have personnally insulted and harrased Brad, CariElf, Kyro, and everyone else under the sun. (Sorry if I misspelled any of

Many years from now when somone enters the cd key on their game that just happens to match the random numbers you entered they will be denied a legitimate copy of the game. :SURPRISED: But then the Stardock tech support will fix it. :D Hmmm.... I wonder if EA games will still be around when that future event (maybe) happens?

If only Stardock programmers worked for national security.... But I'm sure the UN would have a cow if world peace didn't come through them. Great job!

I finished a game last night. "Mo money" means more money. I didn't crash and burn economically like all the other times. Of course I was using a custom race. I think the upkeep of ships took a hit. Meaning it doesn't cost as much to upkeep your ships now. I won the ascension victory but the ending game movie was the defeat one. A bunch of ship pieces floating in space above a world being bombarded. I also had the lowest score, (the lowest total score), but all my individual scores were the high

Hail the SDC heros!

Thanks to stardock's silly pseudo update the game is totally unplayable. I can only set up the game and after choosing options for races to play against as soon as I click on the "next" button to start the game it always crashes now. Next time just put a screensaver or a stupid text file on the servers for us to download to test it. I'm not the only one having this problem stardock. Check your new and "improved" beta and bug forum posts.

As far as I am aware Xbox 360 is the only console so far that it's games can't be pirated, (played on the PC.) NOTICE: I do not support piracy. So if you're going to read this know it is an explanation of thought, not a reason why people should pirate. People shouldn't pirate. There are people who do eventually pirate for reasonable reasons. Take Kights of the Old Republic 2. It is still being sold in stores but the securom security crap on it prevents it from running on certai

This is my most recent error log from SDC application. On the games list page it says I have version .96a[b].004 and that .96a[b].006 is available and when I press the "update" button next to it I always get an error.

Someone updated the wrong server (:( I'm going to start having withdrawal symptoms pretty soon. It's like I can't do anything else until I get this update downloaded. :LOL:

It seems the developers have found a way to keep customers from noticing this game has no multiplayer capabilities at all, (in the true sense of the word.) Even Arnor, from what I understand, is just choose who you want to play a metaverse game "against" and then after both players have finished their "own" game the winner is the one with the highest score. I hope I'm wrong about that because everyone can do that right now without having a programmer tell the code to tell us how our scores compa

All hail SDC! :CONGRAT:

More planets to own = more research points.

[quote]A really nice and wonderful, saintly move would be for the devs to make it possible to MOD, (add, fix, remove), mega events.[/quote] Can we have a poll concerning that? Since the devs insist they listen to customers. I really don't mind any other mega event. I don't ever develop ships that go super fast either, (10 or more movement points a turn), this event just makes all the new movement techs useless and all the old ones, specifically drives. Can it at least be moded

I use to brag about this game to my family and friends. I bought the Gold Edition for my brother. He used to love it. One of his best friends decided to get it as well. That was two to three months ago. Now they don't like it. I still play, a lot less. The only problem I have with the beta is the mega event that makes it so nothing can go past five movement points a turn. For races like the Acreans, and others that have specialized techs that make ships go faster, this really ruins the

[quote]The Thalans and the Altarians are not enabled for this beta as was previously scheduled because they are going to be wicked cool and with all the excitement of Christmas we were concerned for your heart condition.[/quote] We are not stupid. Just tell us you're not finished with them.

[quote]What happened to every race having their own weapons? Drengin have unique weapons and weapon techs, with some branching "bonus" weapons similar to the evil alignment weapons. Arcean have different weapons. The labels are not the same in every category, and I *assume* this brings with them different stats at different points in the tech tree than the other races. Have not explored the terrans yet.[/quote] As I posted earlier it was stated that new w

What happened to every race having their own weapons? That seemed to be a big point pushed in the TOTA trailer. All that seems to have happened is renaming of the tech tree weapons for the races but they all have the same animations. If that's how it's going to be don't even bother giving each race "different" weapons. Otherwise I'm drooling right now. Bug I saw: I had the option of adding the fleet warp bubble modules be

Stardock has released all the previous starting betas for games and expansions usually at the end of the work day the beta is scheduled to be out. They do this to make sure they have all the stuff worked out for a beta release so customers don't get any alpha surprises. It'd be nice if other game companies would actually have things ready for their final release of their crap. Don't count on the beta any earlier than end of work day Tuesday on the east coast of the US. However, since they have s
