looks like another boring 2x game focused on expand like mad and exterminate as fast as possible , 20 colonies after a hour in the game is shit . combat maniacs are killing the genre.
@xxxAndrew69xxx This is not a knock-off of Sins. If it were, I don't think Stardock would have permitted us on their distribution platform, and advertised so much for us. Besides, Sins is in a different genre.
All I can say after trying out this game is... HOLY FUCK, had to quit the tutorial half way, because my brain was about to explode....

@SapianImp "This Is My Empire, These Cities Among the Stars" by Artem Bank; available on the Star Ruler OST and through Artem Bank's bandcamp at lossless quality. The game comes with more than 90 minutes of music from Artem Bank.
My only gripe with this game is the combat is pretty meh. it just doesn't feel epic besides the fact that theres 500 little triangles going at it. I mean even homeworld 2 had better weapon effects and sounds and better ship models. I'll check it out every couple months and see if the devs make some changes or the mod community adopts it. 7 out of 10
@alexhart1986: Wait what? EVEN Homeworld 2 had better effects and Models? Of course, because Homeworld is one of the best Scifi RTS games on the market TILL today. Name one better fleet based RTS. I dare you.
@stynkanator Some things do change the appearance when the overall task of the ship changes, like colony modules or ship bays. Generally speaking, though, there are no visible differences from changing subsystems on a design.

Seriously, who in the hell put this lame-ass music in here? The person playing guitar really sucks. And if you listen to the so-called "lead" at the end? I've heard better lead out of a caterwauling cat, than this dipshit.
I must say I really quite like the music. There's a lot of elements of the genre's of music that I listen to, so I gues sthat has something to do with it. But if your latest album was The Saturdays then it probably won't appeal. ;)
@Rogue254FPS Depends on what kinds of games you like, do you like real-time strategy coupled with heavy resource management? if so, this is the game for you. It's highly complex, I have just gotten into it, but it seems pretty fun.
@kennykiller911 I take it you mean the expansion for GSB? I'm not familiar with it myself, so I can't really say. You can always try out the demo on our site.
Management of planets last time i played was extremely difficult. I couldn't even colonize worlds and build on them for some reason last time I played the game. But somehow the computer was raping me and colonizing worlds fast.
With all the new patches its becoming a great game. There still is the huge problem of lack of Customization on ship types and sets, and Also the biggest problem is there are still too many crash issues. Keep up the good work though blind-mind
What do you mean you can't customize ship sets? Just copy terrakin.txt, put the references to the model definitions that you put in models.txt into it, and you have a new ship set. Granted, you'll also need to add firing and impact points and do material definitions, but all that is just part of getting familiar with the Model Configurator and how the Materials.txt works. I but a brief tutorial of the Configurator up on the forums a while back. Also, which crashes?
@Firgof Its too much work to do that. they should build in their own ship sets rather than have the players do that. Also i've had crashes when using the jump drives, designing carrier ships to carry fighters. There are also some other crashes that randomly occur for a reason I can't figure out.
@matser08 We are doing our best, but we're just 3 guys and we've only 1 decent contact who does 3D art, the other shipsets are taking some time to put together. It's on the way, but it's only got 4 of the 12 model minimum it needs. Could you post steps that duplicate what crashes you've figured out on our forums? That'd help us out a bunch in locating and resolving your crashes.
@Firgof just wanted to let all of you know that i truly admire your companys faithfully following up on this game with all those patches. unfortuntaley at least at first, i fell into the band wagon like most of criticizing but, the exception was that i was frustrated because of looking forward to what i do see in this game. my friends and i were talking about this just the other day and thought i would say thanks for all the patches and wish you continued success in this and future games:)
To the developers...make the transport sistem of Homeworld i mean wen u select a ship make it move were ever u want in space :)
And make more galaxy's :) and more "star Fenomena" like black holes and Nebula......more alien races..........and more misteries of the "Universe" :) and as wee al love FTL :) Faster Than LIght :)
This is a quality game people, AND IT'S NOT EVEN DONE!!! Seriously half off for a game that's bound to be one of the best if not THE best space RTS EVER. BMS is dedicated to providing constant updates and advice whenever you need it. The game is purely massive, only limited by the power of your rig. Have 100 star galaxies, have 10,000 star galaxies. This game is more than playable in its current state, its extraordinary, and there's still a huge (yes huge) list of features that are not in yet.
the sad thing? i fucking bought that piece of shit x3:terran conflict in stead of this game. which looks amazing and im playing the fileplanet demo now. at least i have sins of a solar empire
@ninijacob really you though X3TC was a shit game?? theres some really great mods that expand the gameplay 10 fold. The developer said this is going to be on Steam holiday sale really soon for like 3-4 bucks. Can't wait, thats the only thing that's holding me back from purchasing it RIGHT NOW :)
@nasper12 "This is My Empire, These Cities Among the Stars" it's from the game's soundtrack. You can find it on bandcamp if you'd like to grab it. Search for "Star Ruler" bandcamp on google and it should be the first link. :)

We (me being one of the developers in case I wasn't clear before) definitely keep a close eye on our forums and the forums typically see 20-40 posts a day. I keep my eye out for bug reports on the internet in general but obviously I can't be everywhere and I'd hate for a bug to get by without us knowing about it and for a customer to be unaware of service when we can offer it.
Sorry that it's been a frustrating experience for you so far. :(
@Firgof Well ok i can't tell you what bugs are causing my game to crash. Mostly because the bugs that cause the game to crash are often random and occur differently every game. Its too hard to keep track of. I can only say that I am running on windows vista and it when it does crash I sometimes cant even operate my system even with task manager. I have to manually shut the computer down during crashes.
@matser08 Have you updated your OS and drivers recently? Star Ruler can't cause a hanged system as we aren't messing with anything that could cause a system hang like that.
@Firgof Its not the operating system that is the problem. I said that the game crashes and I cannot get rid of it at all using task manager or by forcing it to close. I can still open internet explorer, or other programs but the window doesn't disappear
@matser08 In this case, the game may simply be a symptom of a much broader problem; possibly in your hardware or your Operating System. I'd like to move this discussion over to our support forums so I can get the more code-minded to look your problem over and perform further diagnosis. Star Ruler shouldn't have the capability to fail to close. Do you know where our forums are?
Oh and another funny thing happened, I sent in a fleet of ships to attack a system, and I wanted to watch so I zoomed in when they were midway in space traveling to the system and what do I see? The ships are flying backwards. So much for the supposed "Newtonian" mechanics.
@matser08 It is because of the Newtonian mechanics that they are flying backwards. They have to turn their engines to decelerate. Also, please post to our forums about any bugs you experience. We fix bugs as we discover them, and if no one tells us they exist, they're unlikely to be fixed.
@matser08 has been since release; ive given up on it and actually i had my hopes up very high but, pffft what almost a dozen patches later it still has bugs, crashes and leaves you with the limp feeling that says "omg, did i re-download a flop again?" so much for potential. its now November and the potential has gone flat like soda
@kahetel13 It would be most helpful if you encounter issues with the game to post those issues on our forums; the more people post bug reports the faster bugs can get resolved. Also, we'd like to hear more about why it gives you 'that limp feeling' in our Suggestions subforum.
@kahetel13 Oh, no. You didn't bother me. I just wanted to make sure that your voice was heard and that we attempted to resolve your problems at the least.
@Firgof didnt know people paid much attention at forums mostly but i may consider it, thing is the game still has quirks and crashes after all these patches lol . its a great game until that happens. very frustrating. ive removed the game from hard drive in frutrsation like for the 7th time now .
This game is horrendous right now. IT HAS the potential to be a great game, but i cant even finish a game at all without running into some type of stupid bug. The Bugs are the main issue. Then you guys need to start implementing new ship designs and fix all the flaws with the technologies and tech tree. Some of the Technologies like for example the "JUMP DRIVE" have absolutely no use, I still cant use it, and its even more annoying when u have to select "use jump drive" in the right click menu.
The best about this game is the ship configuration really :) Playing vs computer, teching all the way up to 10 in every spec +1 weapon spec, economics as high as you can get, build a shipyard world with lots of havens too, then build a 20K size ship with 2 smallest lasers, link one to range subsystem and one to fast fire subsystem, you can even take the light hull + rep module and shield generator, that rocks. Youve got to try that. Nothing can touch you. Heavy hull with that 5G HP lol.
@baronsengir187 Admittedly, it takes a different approach than MOO2 (RT4X, 'Exterminate' and 'Exploration' seamlessly integrated in the same engine instead of separate 'phases' of a turn-based system), but it is sadly true that very few games come close to MOO2 anymore. I think the only ones that do are produced by Stardock, such as the Galactic Civilizations series. This looks interesting, though, but I think there's a bit too much potential for sensory overload.
@paladinstorm Sensory overload seems to be a common problem amongst those type of games, like armada 2565 or Space Empire. They try but then they cant keep you playing to the end of the game because you just loose oversight. And yes, Gal Civ is great but more a sci-fi Civilization. Sins of a solar empire is also great but its not round based and not very diplomat or customizing (in game, mods for that are great) friendly.
@baronsengir187 Yeah, Sins isn't made for ship designing. But I think the Diplomacy expansion adds some decent options in terms of 'diplomat friendly' gameplay, supposedly even allowing for diplomatic victories? Someday I'll get myself the full Trinity pack and find out just how in-depth they made things... Sounds like they finally got rid of the random mission crap from the basic game, at least (Why are you asking me to do something for you? I'm busy killing you, do I look like I care?)
@Speed1Killer1 My first guess would be they run into the planet because the planet is constantly orbiting, but the ships don't stay in orbit? Which, really, they should hold orbit after construction if not told to rally somewhere. At least, that's my understanding based on how the demo worked, and if they decided to use collision physics.
Epicly immersive game. Just make sure you have the updates.

Well the developers seem to be very active amongst the community, seem to actually listen. Maybe suggest it to them?

The best about this game is the ship configuration really :) Playing vs computer, teching all the way up to 10 in every spec +1 weapon spec, economics as high as you can get, build a shipyard world with lots of havens too, then build a 20K size ship with 2 smallest lasers, link one to range subsystem and one to fast fire subsystem, you can even take the light hull + rep module and shield generator, that rocks. Youve got to try that. Nothing can touch you. Heavy hull with that 5G HP lol.

Why is everybody trying to make such a game and still Master of Orion 2 isnt reached by any of them?
baronsengir187 1 year ago
@baronsengir187 Admittedly, it takes a different approach than MOO2 (RT4X, 'Exterminate' and 'Exploration' seamlessly integrated in the same engine instead of separate 'phases' of a turn-based system), but it is sadly true that very few games come close to MOO2 anymore. I think the only ones that do are produced by Stardock, such as the Galactic Civilizations series. This looks interesting, though, but I think there's a bit too much potential for sensory overload.

@paladinstorm Sensory overload seems to be a common problem amongst those type of games, like armada 2565 or Space Empire. They try but then they cant keep you playing to the end of the game because you just loose oversight. And yes, Gal Civ is great but more a sci-fi Civilization. Sins of a solar empire is also great but its not round based and not very diplomat or customizing (in game, mods for that are great) friendly.
baronsengir187 1 year ago
@baronsengir187 Yeah, Sins isn't made for ship designing. But I think the Diplomacy expansion adds some decent options in terms of 'diplomat friendly' gameplay, supposedly even allowing for diplomatic victories? Someday I'll get myself the full Trinity pack and find out just how in-depth they made things... Sounds like they finally got rid of the random mission crap from the basic game, at least (Why are you asking me to do something for you? I'm busy killing you, do I look like I care?)

every time when i build ships they explode after a short while
Speed1Killer1 1 year ago
@Speed1Killer1 My first guess would be they run into the planet because the planet is constantly orbiting, but the ships don't stay in orbit? Which, really, they should hold orbit after construction if not told to rally somewhere. At least, that's my understanding based on how the demo worked, and if they decided to use collision physics.

How long will the game continue to be developed through additional patches?

@adugan22 We're definitely working through the end of the year with Star Ruler as the sole project. After that, it's not so certain.

Game looks great if only my graphics card could handle it :(

@valcan321 You can turn the settings way down, so the game should run on nearly any machine (although it won't look as good on old hardware)

Any chance you'll go retail sometime?

@Mynameisnotooo We are looking into that, but the distribution would likely be restricted to Europe for now.
