Reply to Diplomacy 1.00 small AI bugs in Sins Diplomacy Sins Forums

[quote quoting="post"] -Advent AI still makes homing mines on most of their carriers. [/quote] Yeah, this one is so annoying when you see your ally attacking a starbase with 10 carriers (until there, sounds good)... full of homing mines... It is funny the first time, very boring and frustrating after...

Reply to Elemental: The Tragedy of Procipinee in Elemental Dev Journals Sins Forums

Am i the only one that it reminds of Galactic Civilization? immortals : arnor ; Tar-Thela = Draginol and shards like in Twilight of the Arnor again ? And this line : "the mortals were no longer a threat to them magically" remembers me of "the Dread lords were affraid that the younger races may be a match for them technologically". Maybe GalCiv's development team = Elemental development team ?! (just kidding :p)

Reply to Why Ironclad is so successful so quickly in Sins Developer Journals Sins Forums

I strongly support point 1 : the empire Tree is very very great. First time i played sins tutorial, i found it a pain. Now, it is hard to come back to any other RTS where you have to move your viewpoint to the unit, zoom on in, click on it and so on... Here, i can review my economy and order my fleet planets away to colonize, attack, retreat, and so on. And the view of your ship's state is so clear : one unit is glowing red and has no more shields ? Ctrl + R and it retreats by itself ! Everyt

Reply to Global warming hoax!?! - UPDATED - in Everything Else Sins Forums

[quote who="Frogboy" reply="1178" id="2530159"] Who's asking for trillions to be spent? I'm curious. Let's assume for a moment that human produced CO2 can affect the global temperature. How do you stop it?[/quote] Yeah, that's a challenge. The problem is not that the global economy is centered around consumerism (although there is no evidence that it will lead to one's happyness and life fulfillment but it is another debate) about that our economy is about the GRO

Reply to Obama just cut off funding to NASA??? in Everything Else Sins Forums

Ok, as everyone here, i like the idea of space travel but let us face reality : we don't have the technology to go out in our solar system efficiently. We are still using the same engines that the ones used in the appolo project in 1969. Ok, they got a little bit of efficiency between there and now but it remains VERY difficult to go to space. To escape from the earth gravitational field (and so go to the moon, mars, whatever), you need the object to be propelled at 11.

Reply to Sins of a Solar Empire compared to other games. and more in Sins Diplomacy Sins Forums

Haegemonia was a show, not a video game. You couldn't control more then 12 squadrons (or units as the squadron of seven fighters, the squadron of 4 corvets, the squadron of 2 cruisers and finally the squadron of one battleship are the only four military units you can build in the game !) The battle were nice to see but didn't involve strategy at all, it was just watching the pretty effects. You are comparing a game with only 12 units maximum to Sins... Haegemonia was nice, i h

[quote who="Annatar11" reply="6" id="2496618"]Yeah, the list is fairly long and I doubt they can do everything, but to me the main holes that should be plugged: - AI needs to build superweapons. - AI needs to be able to interrupt channeling capital ship abilities (like Missile Barrage) - AI needs to be able to use capital ship ultimates (they can now if auto-cast is turned on but since all ultimates are defaulted to off the AI never uses them). - AI needs to upgrade

Reply to All I really want from Diplomacy is... in Sins Diplomacy Sins Forums

Really interested in your post darvin3 as i had an idea for a while that may work. One flaw of the game was that, even if it considers itself as a 4X game, it lacked depth in civilization building : you upgrade all planets the same way and once you are done, you will focus only on the military. There is no way planets can be as customized as in GalCiv 2, that's impossible but GalCiv had the bright idea to create Galactic wonders (one for the entire galaxy), civilization achiev

@Neroir : i totally agree : i downloaded GalCiv 2 and Sword of the stars ultimate this Week-end and they were both in english (i am french), i was quite surprised as for Sins of a solar empire, i got the choice of the language before downloading and galCiv 2 has been released in france (sword of the stars ultimate, i am not too sure). It is ok for me because i can read english pretty well but i would have liked to know the language before the purchase.

So, if i understand your logic greyfox2, it is about : i host a game without password so everyone can join so that i can play and have fun but if i am lucky enough to get more people than expected, i choose them and kick the others, even if they waited a long time because, i, the host, would have more fun in this case. Finally, everything is around YOUR fun. it is your right but, personally, i find it pretty selfish : you kick the same less skilled players that allows you to p

Reply to What about the story? in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

If you look for originality, yes, it is not incredible but so is Star Wars (rescue a princess, destroy a evil empire...) and it is a really good story. what makes the background of sins that solid is the depth of its universe : when you learn about the advent backstory, the look of their ships and their voices makes sense. The same for the very crude and basic TEC ships : you feel the fleet built with haste to counter the alien attacks. SOASE story is not incredible as there i
