I like the idea and definitely think some of the rights shouldn't even be spelled out as they're just common sense but then some of them are a bit far fetched or naive. [quote]3. Gamers shall have the right to expect meaningful updates after a game’s release.[/quote] Not all games need (or even should have) updates. Adventure games, like The Longest Journey for example, don't need updates. Even shooters, just your standard fare like half-life, or crysis, or whate have yo

I'm gonna read this right away because I wanna know why the heck wasn't it 9.6?!? :( :) Edit: I gotta say I agree with the comments they made about ascension victory. But anyway, I expect to see more great reviews for TA - as far as expansion packs go it's the 2nd best I've ever played, and that's saying a lot considering I actually had a hand at making the one that's on the top of my list. :)

Great guide DivineWrath, exactly the kinda thing I was looking for. When I was playing Yor (just one game so far though) I noticed that research seemed easier than usual. Not sure if it was just some lucky coincidence (of favorable conditions coming together), or just the other races really sucking, or something about the Yor themselves, but I'm not a great player and I only recently upgraded to Normal difficulty but that game with Yor was the fastest research I've gotten in a while.

I'm not disputing the fact that it's a smart move to target supporting ships first, it's just that I almost got the sense that the AI for the enemy fleets is smarter than the AI for my fleets.

Anyway, thanks for all the advice, I think I'll just stick to my usual (safe) strategy - make sure to always have a

I'm trying to understand how, in fleet to fleet combat, ships are selected for attack and defense. For example, I constructed a couple of medium size support ships - one that gives defense to the fleet, another that gives speed boost. I gave them fairly high defense but not much for attack. For some reason these ships always appear at the head of my fleets. I tried rearranging the order using "manage" fleet button but they always stay at the front. Which means that when my fleet engages i

Well ideally everything would be free and we won't need copyright protection but things aren't ideal so given that I think you have the best content delivery/copyright protection system, at least that I encountered. Maybe it's more cumbersome if you don't have stardock central but I do and... can I just say how freaking nice it is not to have to go through twenty dialogs and 5 restarts just to install or update a piece of software! Applications like stardock central are the future of content del

Congratulations on Baby 3.0 I expect it is fully compatible with Windows Vista The new stuff looks great, I especially appreciate the diagonal scrolling as it's been bugging me for a while.
