Great Game!!

from Sins Forums
Just wanted to thank the devs for making a great game. Played my first round last night and had a blast until way past my beddy-time.

I really hope you guys make a sequel! In case you do, here's my short wish list :

1. Better tutorials - the ones in Sins are good, but get messed up easily and I don't feel that they really introduce the player to more sophisticated gameplay like a campaign of gradually increasing difficulty would.

2. Super high poly models - I'm sure some of us will work on modding this soon, but I hope your next game has really massive capital ships with tons of surface detail and moving turrets. Not that the models in Sins aren't great, but it would be really awesome to push the limits on this for high-end machines.

Overall, GREAT JOB! Time to go post my five-star review on Amazon. :)

Oh I forgot to ask for one more thing :

3. Moving ships in combat - I agree with those who would prefer ships to maneuver, even if just a little bit, during combat. In all 3 axes. Would be cool if capital ships had different weapons on different broadsides so they had to actually position themselves to deliver a massive blow.

Thanks for considering!

Regarding 3: They do, use say an Akkan class capital from the TEC. It has to turn broadside to open up the majority of its weapons.

I think you need more play time :), they definitely do maneuver in 3 dimensions. But if you're zoomed out and/or watching two capital ships duke it out then you'll miss the movements that they do make. You won't see a capital ship trying to dance about like a fighter, all that moment to accelerate does not make for a nimble vessel ;)

Watch the fighters and bombers for constant maneuvering, but bigger ships are basically just going to slug it out. Any tactical maneuvering falls under micromanaging their position and targets - which can certainly make a difference!

I agree with you on the tutorials though, even one that provided a true taste of actually setting up a successful first planet with tips as to what to build would be of huge benefit to new players I think.
