With all respect to this game I feel two things are wrong with it.
1. those ground units must be the largest ground forces I have ever seen, hell they beat an Emperor-class Titan from 40K in shear size.
2. While setting up a galactic empire I really don't like the feel that I would be engaging on a 2D plain sorry but use EAW as template at least they got the idea.
@jpvg1981 I know that this is not realistic,but moving something that large would take a starship's sized anti-gravity generator to compensate for their size. I know that they are representational but still, I feel that if you are going to have a bloody large mecha then have something smaller then it to show it's scale.
i have to say i own armada and am not all tha impresed as it is with it i advise that if you want a game like this just hold your cash untill sword of the stars 2 comes out it will be much better and for the idiots that only care about grahics its gona have better graphics also
If you're looking for more space combat and less spreadsheety management you're probably better off going with something like Sword of the Stars. I think they’re getting a shiny new sequel out in a couple months from now.
@WimsicleStranger I'll admit, SOTS2 wasn't quite as shiny as I imagined... but KERB are doing their best to get it back up to launch-quality by christmas.
OH MAN!!! you guys know what the rts category on gaming is dying i really mean it examples?
Command and Conquer 4 Tiberian twilight the series was king but sucked at this part on 2010. R.U.S.E not bad but really too much when it comes to strategy and starts to bore me.
Don't want to ruin ye party but this game - apart from having poor graphics - have a lot of bugs which are fixed only in the new expansions (something like VisualStudio).
this game needs some Serious work if its gonna compete with the others in the market... Waste of time if you ask me.. i play games for fun, not to be bored.
@MajesticLuuk1 man your must be made of shit, 3d graphics didnt even come around till after 2000 which blows your theory so far out of the water its rediculous.
Sins felt too much of a vanilla strategy game to me, lately however i have found Sword of the Stars to be a great game, and some of the mods out there for it are very good. Homeworld 1 and 2 were excellent so im agreement there.
Another one that was a lot of fun and mixed space and ground combat was Imperium Galactica 2: Alliances.
Sins felt too much of a vanilla strategy game to me, lately however i have found Sword of the Stars to be a great game, and some of the mods out there for it are very good. Homeworld 1 and 2 were excellent so im agreement there.
this game looks like shit... like, it really does look like shit, even the game play looks like garbage. like, lets face it, civilization games suck ballz, they make no sense, and nothing works the way you want it to. and theres no way to play this kind of game online competitively
To be honest I would rather play masters of orion II. The only x4 game I'm remotely interested in coming out is sword of the stars 2. Unless someone does something interesting in a x4 game. Like say Sins of the Solar Empire. you can count me out. And with the economy rounding the toilet bowl. I won't be wasting my money on the same game I have been playing for years with complete fail graphics. Dude! I want HD movie quality space battle. It's 2011. Come on!
It's just another game like the Civilization - "bad" graphics and superior gameplay. Have to agree with capkill. The last few CoD's were all the same except for the campaign which was WAY to small. Why buy Black Ops when its multiplayer is the same as Modern Warfare's?
Go back to the old school games, where gameplay mattered, and not the imba graphics. :)
@Waislboy yes what you guys really don't know that graphic doesnt metter whats metter is that gameplay is good i still play gta 3, now in year 2011! becouse is good!
@Waislboy Look at battlefield 3 they say the pre-order numbers are 5 to 8 times larger than those of bad company 2 . Don't remember the exact number of times :D . Sure the game's good but what's it's selling point ? Those awsome graphics . It's not a bad game but sadly proof that people will choose imba graphics over gameplay , A very sad thing . :(
@Cobac Actually, no. Another big selling point of Battlefield 3 is that its gameplay has always been focused around big maps and great team-based gameplay which people like about the series. That there's more PREORDERS of the game, just means that 1) the fps fanbase has increased over the past few years (Which it has) and that 2) they've done a great job at advertising it.
Saying that BF 3 having more preoders than BCBC 2 means that people prefer graphics over gameplay is inaccurate! :P
@Cobac That assumes that FPSs have innately bad gameplay, whilst that is a matter of opinion. Tell me, what makes BF3's gameplay bad, making people buy it for just its graphics?
@Joccaren it's not bad .... just that the SUDDDEN pre-order growth up to 8 times ...... obviously the fan-base should have remained at the same level as bad company 2 in terms of pre-order , but 8 times . Sill the game is AWSOME :D but i hate when i read people saying that the graphics are awsome .... that clearly tells me they dont care about the game itself if the only talk about uber graphix
It's my favorite 4x. The gameplay is just great. Of course, some things could still be improved but i haven't had so much fun with a 4x since Star Trek: birth of the Federation.
@Anguille2 Thing is botf is an awful game. But extremely authentic interface, voice overs and music make it compelling. If it used some cooked up homebrew IP it would have been shit.
The massive turn processing, serious bugs and terrible gameplay balances would NEVER have got so much gameplay from me if it wasn't startrek. You just have to fire that game up after watching a few old episodes of the show!
ahaha, i am reading all this graphics comments, i prefer a remake of master of orion then another cod good graphic shit that you get bored after 1 day. Only real gamers will attend a game like this, the other will spill shit on "shity grafic" and cant wait to pay another 60euro for another cod.
if this game was remade with today's gaming technology, it would be bad ass. Add in some more land unit, like how the covenant in Halo had with the huge lazer that glassed Reach. It would be amazing
LOL MICROSOFT WTF IS THIS SHIT!, UR COPIES WILL BARELY BE SOLD SERIOUSLY! U NEED TO SELL GAMES THAT ARE INTERESTING TO PLAY NOT THIS, I MEEN WHO'S GOING TO PLAY THIS?
I need to know what you used to create this game. what engine? language? ect.
