[FearLancer2]

[Mamvri]

[yellowfellow]

CHUUU CHUU

[bladerunner162]

man some of those ships look awsome, i love the early KOl model, they should make that a new cruiser in the upcoming expansions.

[anyeloelite]

LAGGGGGGGGGG

[FeldwebelNobbs]

lol poor poeple at that planet XD nice game, nice vid, good job!

[bladiumdragon]

oh no!!! it's the deathstar all over again.

[dav10037]

it would cool if it had ground battle

[KrimeMater]

This is a great game. I believe the people i think two producers of the Star Wars Empire at War series had a contract with stardock and ironclad and they helped develop the game. Both Great games none the less 5/5

[hello7210]

Something weird about this game...I downloaded the demo, played it, and then watched the trailer...It seems a lot of planned ships aren't in the game, that were in the trailer.

Example: big, long ship that looked like a space "container ship", launching fighters and firing. What happened to that and all the others?

[FallN08]

laggin' to the max jk

[crappieya]

the game seems kind of like the end of spore

[zelda6991]

true

[Besnada]

Looks soo hard..hmm..coooL!

[iceheart920]

It'd be sweet if Lucas Arts uses this engine for their next strategy game. People are already working on a Star Wars mod for Sins but you can only do so much as a modder.

[Shadowzzzz5599]

nice game i think this one will be a 20 year hit like age of empires 2

[MutantBadger]

Or like WoW XD, seriously tho, WoW is gonna stay for an ub3r long time...

[rismanpsykat]

someone please tell me a program so i can do recordings of my gameplay pls

[Attila16]

check the guide on dateyourgame =)

[sgtkiko]

this game is soooo hard

[Kingzogre]

Reminds me of a book called "Enders Game" or somthing like that

[cwilli15]

TOTALY! It looked like a display of the Dr. Device bomb thing. Man i love that book.

[KupoJones]

greatest series ever

[Tsunande2]

what are those light that are ghathering in one place?

[DM4717]

phase jumps

[ab123110]

XD "This is a cakewalk"

You just came in there and shot the planet and those defences can only watch!

[illibamen]

what a fucking sad game,

Homeworld 2 Pwns it

but like a gameplay doesnt seem bad...

I liked most Homeworld 2 !

[MasterJediDude]

No Z axis?  Then what's the point to the game? It's like fighting a battle with Khan's 2-dimensional thinking.

[fraserblair]

You can move on the z-axis. Use the ` key or as of beta 4, hold down the movement key (d) when you issue a move order and move the mouse around to select the vertical offset - super easy. You can see it action in some of the other videos.

[JVic1992]

theres no point playing a space rts if you can't move on the virtical axis. so what if the majority of people dont used it. they're neglecting a potential advantage.

[fraserblair]

You can move on the vertical axis in Sins.

[Attila16]

the ship can, but can you send them up? didn't tryed lately...

[fraserblair]

Yes. Use the ` key or as of beta 4, hold down the movement key (d) when you issue a move order and move the mouse around to select the vertical offset - super easy.

[nikermaster]

yes they are shooting a planet... its called orbital bombardment... at least it was in star wars rebellion! ( great game btw )

[Attila16]

yeah it's a cool game =D

[ChiChiChong543253]

what's ur comps specs and what quality are y playing on

[marsbound2024]

Hey, I could've swore that some of these ships are at least inspired by Homeworld. I see a lot of what resembles Ion Frigates of the Taiidan.

[NamelessTurtle]

Nothing wrong with that. The Relic community is pretty excited about the game, and that has a lot to do with it.

[cheeto3491]

i dont like it... u cant even utilize the z axis in this... they should really leave the space RTS's to sierra... no one can duplicate wat they can do!

[JeffHCross]

Just to play Devil's Advocate: 1) If the genre was just left to Sierra, there'd be no advancement. 2) Relic, who made the Homeworld games you're likely referring to, can't make games for Sierra anymore. 3) Relic once said that the *vast* majority of Homeworld players don't even utilize the z-axis, so that "feature" is very underused.

[pandakickmyleg]

Wow i dunno, are those ships huge? Because theyre shooting the PLANET! I almost preordered this game, but i gave up. I really love homeworld 1 and 2, graphics and gameplay, and while this SoaSE has nice graphics and effects, i dunno, there seems to be much less action.. ships are slower, the sound sucks (at least on all youtubes ive seen so far), they dont move on the z axis, seems so boring... oh well.. Ill pass.

[DefJ101]

Space Combat + 2d Plane = Terrible Game

[Borathian]

I'm thinking the combat will be more similar to homeworld that SW empires at war since u have a real time all the time playing stile and the ability to coordinate ships using the z axis tho SoaSE will be on a much MUCH bigger scale than homeworld

[CiferAndMich]

this is like star wars empire at war,the space battles,i mean

[Attila16]

yeah, but the main interest is to conquer the galaxy =)

[CiferAndMich]

also like star wars empire at war,the galactic conquest map

[walkerk19]

I don't know. In SW empire at war, you could target specific parts of the ships. Does this game let you do that? It looks sweet though

[Burakius]

Is this like eve online?

[Attila16]

nop

[voodoochillin]

the planets are actually pretty big, his ships just aren't that close.

[Attila16]

i think they should make bigger planet, would make the ship appear bigger... (in my humble opinion)

[rdewes]

Giant ships on a tiny planet! :D

[Attila16]

yeah =)

[Drag529]

thxs

[lordvivec87]

thats some little amount-o-nukes there :O

[Attila16]

hehe yeah =)

[LeeroyFan101]

That was one strong shield on the planet, were you like shooting nukes at it? LoL

[Attila16]

yeah there was 2 shield installation in the planet sector, but since there wasn't any fleet arround I could waste some time getting my nuke blocked by the shield =)

[blaisejones]

ohhh much bigger than that older one. forgot wut it was called.

[Drag529]

loos like an awsome game, could u tell me the requrement for it ?

[Attila16]

well might be surprising but it's really low, check on dateyourgame (.com) I told it in comment of the first sin of a solar empire post comments

[lilmp]

first view! first comment! =D

I never really get to see space games. The battles look quite interesting.The game looks great, and your attacking a planet! And there are so many small fighter ships. It takes a few minutes for me to really comprehend the size of thsi game. Wow!

[Attila16]

yeah you can conquer the galaxy, 100 planet and 4 solar system. (a little crazy) =)

[CTUKeyes]

awesome you can attack planets!?

thats so cool...but the planet seemed a little too small

[Attila16]

yeah planet are a little too small, they really should make them bigger...

[hellagunner1]

maby the ships are biggers lol

[Attila16]

well i think ship would look bigger if the planet were actually bigger...

[Daniazco]

first ! :D very good atila !!

[Attila16]

thanks =)
