Reply to REPLAY: kosc vs. kryo! in Sins Multiplayer Sins Forums

Me and a friend just got done with a 6.5 hour game and it was AWESOME!!! I haven't had this much fun with a NON-MMO game since Galactic warzones in the BBS days. JimLasCola, I'm happy you had such a good time! Over time those tactics are going to evolve and become much more complex. If you haven't discover already, battles in neutral territories (Gas giants, storms,stars, etc..) can really turn the tide in a game. Just wait until

Reply to Predictable layouts = no exploration fun in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

For those that don't have the beta, when you select a given scenario no two games are the same in terms of exploration. Random planets, asteroids, belts, plasma storms, special planet bonuses, starting positions, environmental aesthetics, and more are generated per game so you always get a unique experience every time. There are also a number of random map options (phase lanes not preset) for various size games. There are many more to come. Bascially you have the choice of playing a c

Reply to What's up Lobby?? in Sins Multiplayer Sins Forums

All great suggestions! The lobby is more or less a placeholder for multliplayer testing at this stage. We'll be putting much more care into the interface in time.

I'll back that up, GG though mr. Lugge. I also noticed there is a bug with the Sova Carrier where it disappears when it is about to blow up so you just see the explosions and bits flying off while it has disappeared. The timing is bugged. We are looking into this. Same for shift-selecting multiple units... it would be more intuitive if it worked the way most people would try it. I agree. On the list.

Reply to The new zoom system... in Beta Feedback Sins Forums

Yeah when I am centered on a moving unit i will follow it but eventually it will shake me off and leave my view its very annoying to view ships in phase space and have them zoom away. I feel like a cat playing with a mouse. You may prefer the locked camera mode better Gauntlet03. In this mode you can stay on the object as long as you like.

Thanks for the feedback guys! - When clicking the "threat report" it doesnt seem to jump to the releavent fleet/planet(ie enemy moving towads/arrived) im pretty sure it did that in B2 Yes, this was fixed. Click to left or right to go through the list and press space bar to go to that event. Now your screen doesnt jump all over the place when you just want to look through your list. When ships, and structures blow

Reply to How did i miss this game? in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

Hey Frightlever! Thanks for your honesty I'm assuming it's going to be Warcraft 3 in space... One of the major differences you'll notice is the much lower frequency of clicking. The pace is also slower. There are pockets of time, such as when ships are in phase space, when you can review your empire, plan your res
