Is no one uploading replays anywhere?

April 17, 2009 12:26:50 PM from Sins of a Solar Empire ForumsSins of a Solar Empire Forums

Seriously, is there no replay watching/sharing culture in this game? I find this very weird for a game with such heavy bias on multiplayer and such great replay controls.

 

There is the WinCustomize page which lists replays and is, I guess, kind of official. However, for the year of 2009 (which we're more than a quarter of the way through now), there is a grand total of 2 replays... one for the Entrenchment beta, and one of some guy playing against the AI in Entrenchment 1.00.

 

Is there some page that I don't know of where replays are uploaded? Is there an alternative way in which people share replays? Or do people just not really give a damn?

If I loaded up any of my replays, it will be in the funny pages.

Yes I am most insane when it coems to replays.  Sorry for no new replays lately.  But the most worthy ones I have gotten my hands on lately are being studied behind the scenes, and I don't feel comfortable releasing them to general public   Perhaps over the weekend I shall get more replays that don't have more of the same.

Cool, and there also seem to be a few others sharing replays in that thread. Thank you Carbon and Astax! I still think that using a service where replays can be linked to more easily (and rated etc) would be preferrable, but at least this way I get a few replays

Well there used to be anotehr site in addition to the one provided by Stardock (which takes like 2 days to add your replay to database), but that site became defunct few months ago.  I miss it :/

Oh wow Ic an't believe the gems they still have up there.  The best game ever recorded I would say lol.  Too bad I don't have the replays i put up on sins.bz when it was active.  I had soem funny ones too.  Wish there was a way to view thsoe old replays on currents sins.  Or if I can get a version 1.03 isntalled in a different folder jsut so i can watch it again.  That game was amazing.

To be honest, even I had a very good game in which I crushed my enemy, I wouldn't uploaded because why would I give away my winning strategy?!

Well seeing how I stomp face does not mean you cans top it hehehe.  Also I would never use the same strategy twice in a row, especially not on a random map.
