Sins of a Solar Empire

Post by delta578 »

Hello, GameToast!!

Well, while watching the GT Countdown Best RTS of 2009 (I think) I saw a game titled "Sins of a Solar Empire" it looked amazing and being the RTS junky that I am, I instantly looked up trailers and read a review on IGN.com and, from what I heard, the game was amazing!

I am curious as to what people here think of it, so please, divulge to me your opinions in this game! Please no spoilers.

Thanks!

You could try out the demo, perhaps? That would probably give you a good impression. :)

If your comp died, then how can you be writing this message?

Well, maybe @ an internet café, the computer of his family/friends that hasn't got a good video card, school, work; there are enough possibilities :)

Lol, well this is my sisters computer (laptop to be more specific). She is VERY PROTECTIVE of her stuff so installing a game on this piece of crap would be unleashing hell its self. (I am sure that any brothers out there have had the same experience)

But back on topic have any of you fine gentlemen played Sins of a Solar Empire?

Just seeing this subject line for the thread moved me to reinstall it. I just play SP, but it's a great game. I think I stopped playing last time because the game was getting so drawn out that I had to move on. Well, that and I'd pissed off the pirates...completely. -_- Apparently attacking the pirate world makes them skip all bounties in favor of killing you for all time. :P I've decided to start a new session, and it's like playing for the first time all over again. I don't have Entrenchment, but I'm tempted to grab it.

I played it, it is godly. MIiht I suggest the 7 Deadly Sins mod? It adds a TON of studd (6 reces, may maps, many new planet types, The Empire! (as in SW), other things will be added (eg. Halo, and others)
