Sins of a Solar Empire: Novalith Genocide

[Burnout609]

LOL

[MajorKickFail]

I like when they said "It's the final countdown!" one of the warheads hit the Terran planet xD

[filippe999]

man the song matched perfectly with the moment

[filippe999]

thats the better weapon on game the kostura cannon is better for strategy ways but novalith is freaking strong

[FdsEliteCorps]

omg the speaker seems like the force commander of dawn of war 2 xD

[jamesfreedom123]

i want this game now just for the sake of blowing up planets

[zzxcvb98]

theres something fundamentally hilarious about the music playing while the projectile is flying towards the planet

[jaspertheking4life]

no music - event match

[natey10101]

wow. that thing owns. its also somewhat funny because im curently building one in my game.

[EliteGod000]

No Rude Comments please, Just laugh at the poor people on the colonies Screaming "OH MY FUCKING GOD ITS A DICK ITS A FALLING DICK!" then boom people die

[mpsemp]

this video is shit

[yoyoboyem]

dam this one sucs!!!! why aint there is ) star???!!! 1 star me too

[carbon016]

you seem pretty angry about video games

[McCbobbish]

@Snooch1984

you are a jerk! this is a great game !

[gastardo]

@Snooch1984

You seem to be gay

[dragefyr]

@Snooch1984 LOL DUDE! GET A FUCKING LIFE YOU COCKMUNCH! xD Hahaha! Your one mad sad son of a bitch!

[wangpangu]

God, I'd forgotten how awful this song is. Anyone who rhymes 'Venus' with 'seen us' wants one of those missles fired straight at them.

[BLARGHALT]

That'll teach those colonists to complain about your heavy-handed suppression of dissent.

[Ultramarine998]

And darth vaders thinking " why the hell didnt ours work as well as theirs !?!?!?! "

[Roland9x]

Sorry guys....we couldnt redirect the warheads so ummmm....yeah good luck surviving

[Gonnakillyou]

Nice choice of music, lol.

[Grudon96]

That one really just gives you the upper hand generally, the other two are a bit more strategical. The Advent one in potential leads to more ships and abetter ecconomy :P mass widespread destruction... it's just not as fancy. xD

[AdventureStudying]

Does the intergalactic nuke raze the whole planet that it hits?

[BurritoPirateXO]

yup =D

[Zalman1337]

If a planet that isn't an asteroid is fully upgraded, it takes at the most 2 hits from a Novalith cannon to wipe out the population and destroy the colony.

[comeon000]

ssooooo.... it does nothing to lava planets?

[MagnaSonic3000]

Does anyone bother to name their planets and Cap ships? I do.

[Ascensiam]

Me too!

[micah9639]

I did because it makes the game more fun knowning your personally named fleet crushes all. Too bad the number of spaces used is really small

[halotree18]

i name my ships so if one wins or loses it feels more personal, like the CSS Supremo or whatever just single-handedly held off 3 factions and counterattacked blah blah blah

[AquaPhoenix2006]

I do, on rare occasions when I feel like naming my Marza Dreadnought

[Zacharyg5]

Lol, oops is right. Wonderful timing, by the way.

[xombieBeast13]

lol the final countdown

[Gam3sA10t]

Yes, i do know ;P

[lanteanboy]

it happened to me once, but fortunatley, only one colony was struck, however, I freaked as shit when I saw my colony wiped out by my nuke, and the worst was that I was still building my econ structures when it blew up...

[rodrigoandxdxsadd]

perfect timing when it says the countdown 5 4 3 2 1 and the planet blows up lol

[Gr1Ng00]

a realy good game ... but TO sad that there is no real story .... this with a mix from (galactic civillizationII) wouldn be so bad .. from my side (sry for cheap english) ... "some more videos" n sub cultures (gcII) ...

but after all .. that game is realy AWSOME ! :P

i love ZUUUM ZUUUM gameplay with Capitol ships !! xD

[LeQuack147]

Lawl, novaliths...

[Gam3sA10t]

I like the Advents special structure. You shoot like 8 at one planet and watch the lines spread all over the galaxy..

Massive flaming missiles are good to though =P. I just wish you could target structures.

[TheGreatH4x0r]

vasari special one does that IIRC

[Cordman1221]

This video is full of win. Good job.

[VintageMustangs]

Music choice couldnt be any better, lol. Nice vid.

[Spartanz1170]

why you want to see the planet with a big ass creator on the planet?

[Spartanz1170]

I setting up 3 Novaliths once... I didnt even have to kill the Visari Homeworld lol

[Naoki09]

There are graphics mods? Do you have a link?

[explorer47422]

a bit anti-climatic arent they? coulda done a whole cut scene of the planet exploding or something :P just looks as though it caught on fire for a few seconds..

[carbon016]

It's more like that because I sped up the demo. In normal play it's a lot slower, but still quite anti-climactic.

[Naoki09]

explosions in general in sins are anti climatic.

[3Dchocolate]

@explorer47422 Still gives me goosebumps watching the torpedo heading unstopably toward a planet. Once you fire it, theres no going back.

[CHAOS676767]

no i mean like the taskbar?

[carbon016]

CTRL-SHIFT-Z iirc

[CHAOS676767]

Hpw do you make the game icons and all the other buttons shorten like that?

[idiotonfire3]

theres a down arrow next to the planet on the left side bar

[Holographicma]

theres goes global warming

[Makrokosmos]

Nothing survives 2 nova hits in quick succsession.

Asteroids are insta killed.

And yes you can shoot from one star system all the way across the map to the other star system where your op resides and nail his planets.

That says something about lazyness and the "f+ck you!" attitude of the TEC.

[XDKang]

They should give the option of reducing terran/arctic/volcanic planets into mere dead asteroids, and asteroids into non-colonializable asteroid fields. Not only will it be realistic, it'll open up new strategic possibilities (think Star Wars: Empire at War), and hopefully, these asteroids will have exploitable resources. ^_^

[greaper1991]

is there a nuke defence ???

[carbon016]

Yeah, if you upgrade your Emergency Defenses all the way the colony will usually survive. However, that's only on the larger planets like volcanic/ice/terran, I'm not sure if the asteroids can survive even with full pop upgrades too.

[Xero77]

The TEC have a Shield Generator that you can build to protect your colonies with, you can see it on one of the asteroids he hits

[SirMuffinsworth]

Nice. Whoever came up with the Novalith should get a raise.

[HunterofWar]

Final Countdown makes it a win.

[HieisIceAngel]

make them suffer

[GuyofCrysis]

KABOOM! nice gun

[rafis117]

lol nice on the teamkilling with a novalith.

and this would be xenocide (killing of the "other") not genocide (killing another race, as in killing someone of a different religion or ethnicity)

still awesome

[Naibasaki]

why does the smoke go up??? as if there is an up in space anyway ^^

[Hadespwr]

Debris will be created when a large object moving at hyper velocity collides with an object of significant mass (a planet for instance) rocketing chunks of stone and what not into space.  Kinda like a meteor impact, in fact very much so like it.

[cynicalprophet]

ya there might be smoke but it kind of "rises" in a direction thats not consistant with the impact. o well

[BritishUnion]

The impact probably smashed a few billion tonnes of earth into space on its own

[Mallemaster]

Nice vid for an awesome game. I once tried (with a mod) to have 400+ cobalt and 10+ cap ships!! that friggin pwnz. make more vids ;)

[leodheme]

i tried to play the game with finalcountdown. it worked out pretty well... O_0

[calls002]

LOL this features in the PCGamer UK magazine review of Sins. Nice one Carbon!

[Warsie]

Gotta love the epic music-the final countdown LOL

[carbon016]

Yeah, check my credit totals and stuff in the upper right and how fast I got more. I had two systems to myself.

[TheVoidDragon]

Sweet Jesus, no! D:

[Eldernesh]

[Warsie]

ditto

[yitfoojr]

Well that is why they are even alive for the amusment of the guy who likes to press big red buttons.

[fraserblair]

[carbon016]

[Eldernesh]

[Sharigan561]
