Most people don't care about Starforce one way or the other I'm afraid. As long as it doesn't crash their computer that is.... HOMM5 will be a huge hit, its already one of the largest pre-ordered PC titles due for release in the next few months. So you not buying it will make no difference whatsoever. Ironically though, Amazon says that the same people who have pre-ordered HOMM5 also bought Oblivion and ....... GalCiv2!!!!! Ain't that an iro

From my experience with online games that have a similar concept I have noticed the following trends: 1) Often empires/sides are attacked when the controlling player/s are offline. Indeed often there will be organisation to cater for this very event! 2) Players quit often at the very height of their empire or success (they get bored) leaving a huge power vaccuum that can often spoil the entire game. 3) Many players will pick on ne

Hi Nick, The game is actually a lot like Birth of the Federation once you get into it (also someone is workign on a Star Trek mod!) Personally I prefer the normal game mode (new game etc from the main menu) because I find the campaign too limiting. I would suggest you stick with the single player game personally. You can fund wars against

if this bug were true then the AI could only do it by knowing what the human player knew ! and considering the AI doesn't exploit this any (as it does in games like Rise of Nations and Starcraft) by picking the weakest points in your lines I think that says that this bug or cheat can't exist. Certainly I've never seen it.

i'd red somewhere that red dwarves only look red to us because they are so far away, the same as a hallogen lamp will appear red from a distance but white hot close up.

I think it complicates matters unnecessarily. I'd prefer if hostile ships could enter orbit into your planet and 'blockade' your opponent so that the planet couldn't contribute to his empire.

I'd partially disagree with you their Fade. I think both games were eagerly anticipated. The marketeers like to push Obliviion more though because as you correctly say, its easier to sell. I think that the type of gamer who plays TBS games is also the gamer who plays RPGs and real time strategy. People who prefer a little bit more meat in their games than the point and shoot or jump and shoot crowd you find with FPS players etc.

Its really hard to say where the market will head because different companies have different agendas. Sometimes the same company can have different agendas!! Some argue that the PC is doomed because developers hate the added costs of developing for so many hardware configs, users prefer console gaming for its ease of use and multimedia companies want to crush it because it allows rampant piracy to occur. Additionally they would say that cons
