ok I am looking for a good MMORPG is free (no subscriptions, am willing to pay a one off payment for initail download or disc etc) what would you recomend? I like Sci-fi, but want something that had alot of dept, something I can really work at,as I don't wokr cos of a disability and have too much time on my hands, I did like Eve online (but can't afford the fees, and found it just daunting lol)

wont running a media player in background degrade performance?
So being evil makes it easier to score well?! thats just not right, each ethic should have an equal chance of generating the same points level....otherwise people will just use that ethic for the points and not so much for their own personal enjoyment... As for the Hisenhorn comment, I half agree, Hisenhorn books were better, but the ravenor character I think is better..
so let me get this right, you can only have as many songs/mp3 files as there already is? (as you have to rename them to the originals)?? Pretty rubbish if you ask me, as I want a full playlist, not a couple of tunes
true...... do you stick with the moral ethic though? you know if you were a good civ you wouldn't randomly attack other races... or being an evil civ you wouldn't give stuff away (unless its money to bribe, or 'use' the race)
Right I have been trying to get my custom music to play in the game (during normal time, not events etc), I copied all my songs into the music folder and removed the standard ones (moved them to a new folder incase I want them back) However when I play the game there is no music for the first couple of turns and then the original background music plays, what am I doing wrong?
I think an option similar to the number of planets would be good, with the option being....rare....scattered....abundent and Off "A mind without purpose will walk in dark places" Gideon Ravenor
Thank you for all your help!!! greatly apreciated
Ok aside from what race you play (and the 'Fluff' ethics that go with them), do you play the good guy? or the evil one? or do you hang around the middle? And the Killer Question......why? I usually play an evil race, just suits my mind set of wanting to wipe out everything and/or dominate, but lately I find the 'Balanced' view a good way to play so do you have an evil dregin in you? or a peaceful Torian?
Haveb't been playing long, but found that the pirates tend to be more likely to appear near an evil race, well that seems to be the trend so far in my games
just thought I'd ask if anybody has heard anything about this? they have warhammer online (which is more of a fantasy thing) something based on the 40k universe would be great, mainly based around the imperium and chaos, the aliens races I think should be like 'monsters', and you start as an Imperial and you make decisions along the line which could make you chaos, or if you were good you'd be an inquisitor (which you could turn radical), Would be very interested in peoples views
Dawn of war soulstorm and maybe a warhammer 40k MMORPG
This game I found deeply disapointing, ahving been a fan of the series it has lowered my opinion of EA, it just hasn't got the depts of sim city4 or the thrill of being able to watch your city physically grow and bust, I' say aviod this one, EA trying to reach a new market for the series but in the process leaving behind the faithful.....
To me that game is just too big, and it makes you feel so small and not important, tried the 14 day trail and will not be paying out a subscription on such a game
I am now starting to get rather annoyed, by tomorrow it will have been atleast a week since I purchased the DA and TA bundle (digital one with both), yet I have not played it once yet.. why? activation!!! Ok first of the auto activation won't work, maybe because I purchased the game using a different email address to my stardock account, but I got the support guys to merge them, still doesnt work just get error about a certain .txt file couldnt be found and asks if I wa
well I have had that page come up several times, and have other problems with activating, been waiting over 48 hours now...............
just one point, how would carriers be any different to having ships in a fleet? I mean it all sounds good but I just dont see how it works, and as for orbital bombardment, thats good but needs to have a high risk factor (ie easier or less risky to do do a normal invasion). Plantery damage could also be dealt another way, say if you have a high culture value on a alien planet, you could use espionage to attack/destroy planetary improvements, if the percentage you have is low, the improve
Interesting point this one, I have had it several times on dread lords, yet have the same problem, it would make sense that all the tech they gain I already have as I am usually the leader in research in my games. I usually use the minor races as a second income, trading techs for cash, and sometimes helping them if they are attacked by supplying them with advanced ships, and use them to weaken the enemy before attacking the same enemy myself I miss the GalCiv1 were you could g
Right straight to the point, I want bigger hulls (new ones) to create monsterous ships, the kind that when approaching a planet would create an exclipse, yes I am talking huge, obvioulsy these may unbalance the game, but I would like the mod to include ships in such a way that all races can use them, I want realistic costs (in comparison to other ships), what Ii want is to be atleast twice the size of current ships, with many points to add engines and armour, they would operate similar to a flee
Dawn of war dark crusade works fine on my Vista system (came with new PC) however I cannot get civilzation 4 to work, I downloaded patches and just keep getting cannot find DVD-rom, my old PC use to run that game (although very slow nad sloppy) yet this new PC won't! also I have found no games that have massive improvement in performance (dispite going form a 1.1ghz CPU, 256 Ram to 2x 3ghz (not dual) 1GB Ram), hope to get a copy of XP soon, or linux (have no idea what it is!) anyways thanks for
Also I have found that you can increase the planets class beyond 26, I have only tried up to 70 (makes every tile usable) however obviously this seriously unbalances the game, so I personally play the game different, on the largest map it is possible to slightly even the odds, by refraining from colonising new planets for the hole game, just colonise the planets on that solar systems, makes you more reliant on starbases for range (note: the game is still hugely unbalanced at the beginning of the
I have come across a slight problem on my Vista system, when you try and edit the files, and then save it, it doesn't let you (cannot find location, check pathname, or something like that), However I have found a fix, cut and paste the XML document to the desktop, edit it, save (keeping it on the desktop) and then cut and paste it pack into the original folder, I do not know if this is just a problem with Vista ir just my PC so I thought to be kind enough to make sure everyone has the solution
