Reply to Sticking With Stardock in Demigod Demigod Forums

Well..part of the silent majority here... I buy Stardock games since GalCiv I, always liked them, and especially the support and communication. Simply Outstanding. Thanks! That said, I realise the difference when Stardock acts as a publisher. I guess i will not buy Stardock published games so blindfolded as I do Stardock developed products (well..with Sins it worked out). I was not to happy with Supreme Commander support, and now Demigod - GPG is loosing some trus

Reply to Will America always be a superpower? in Everything Else GalCiv2 Forums

Interesting to read..especially the parts where people are against health care for everybody, it is a major achievement I think. I definitly prefer living in country which offers this to being part of a superpower (and I cannot see that it hampers economics - germany is not doing too bad). Where is the power when you get seriously ill and you cannot afford a cure which could help you??? Somebody wrote something about darwin and sorting the weak out. I do not know the words to say what I feel ab

German Review (4players.de) in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

Hope this has not been posted before, the review is some days old. My favourite German Game Site, www.4players.de, gave sins 84/100 points. For this site, this is quite good! In my opinion, they have the best reviews on the german market. The review contains over three pages and is quite well written; including an "review" of buying sins online. Unfortunately, they had problems while buying - fortunately, the support was quick to help. Link for those who speak German: http://www.4play

Reply to Multiplayer Disconnect Issues in Technical Sins Forums

Thank you for your offer!! But I have played around with this for hours while trying to get SupCom running. I also wrote to the manufacturer, and it seems it cannot be changed, not even with the newest firmware. At this point I gave up. SupCom was not to great anyway (Performance...). But I shall not let a simple :-/ router stand between me and Sins, I will get a new one later today..

Reply to Multiplayer Disconnect Issues in Technical Sins Forums

I am having the same problems...frustrating :-/. Mostly it is the same as mentioned above, I am "Migrating" and everybody else is "Disconnected". So, if i understand this correctly, this can happen if the host quits and nobody else is a suitable host? That said, if I am able to host a game, this error should not happen as long as I am in a game, because the host-function can migrate to my computer?! Unfortunately, I am unable to host a game, despite correct port forwarding. I had s

Reply to Phase jump inhibitors in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

[quote] I'd like to suggest that in addition to there current effects that PJI's also slow the movement speed of of enemy fleets in the phase lane. E.g., if you jump within the range of an enemy PJI your phase lane movement is slowed by X percent. This would effectively give advantage to the defenders strategic movement of defensive fleets in his/her own territory. My concern here is that if you have a system with a defensive fleet and someone bypasses it giving

Reply to Defense is useless. in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

I agree that defense should only buy you some time, so I think that the power of the defense systems is ok as it is now. But, I also agree that a) It would be better if Phase Jump Inhibitors were more effective, so that an enemy fleet cannot just bypass my front line planets which are supposed to give me some time to bring in my fleet and b) that the fleet cap limit should scale with map size or something

You have to research "Long Range Jumps" or something like this; then you can jump to other stars the same way you can travel to other plantes..

Reply to Advertisments for Sins? in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

Publisher or not; I will purchase the game online anyway - living in the euro-zone makes buying via stardock central a real bargain at the moment. Everything is 50% cheaper as it used to be :-) (and yes... there are some more people in Germany who are interested in sins)

Hmm... I doubt that building and managing 168 constructors would be fun, if you are not into score grinding (And then comes a war, and they are all gone...).
