- It feels like the game isn't even complete. It's like they released a beta.

Yes. It's not even free, like DF.

By the by. The "demo" is out. *wink*wink*nudge*nudge*saynomore*

[forsaken1111]

The reason it feels like a beta is that it IS a beta.

It amused me that in the time I constructed that ship my society went from railguns and armor plating to particle weapons and shields.

Can you retrofit? I don't mind so much if you can't (Sword of the Stars [which is damn good, mind you]), but it is a nice feature.

I don't see any way to do so, but it may be a planned feature. -shrug-

Swapping out weapons and power structures to get them going is difficult and time consuming, but certainly not impossible.

Retrofitting I could pretty much guarentee is on their list of things to do, its very common amongst games these days.

Mh,how come this is at the same time preorder (impulse) and ready to buy (gamersgate)?

Anyway, sounds interesting. Had some leftover blue coins (from the horrible armada 25-something game i returned) and went for this

Hope it's not overly hard to get into; otherwise it'll have to share a spot of playing time with AI Wars and Distant Worlds

[forsaken1111]

Because Impulse decided to release it on Monday. Not sure why.

[Deadmeat1471]

For those who are wavering as to whether to buy

Lol those red things are 1200 fighters attacking a ship.

How do you fail to properly rip this game. D:

How?!  I mean, you toss the whole game into an archive, you upload it, and you're done!  That's it!

Aaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrgggggghhhhhhh.

I think people are too busy building star system sized ships.

Star Ruler, because other space games don't let you build a ship larger than a galaxy.

[forsaken1111]

After building the 3200 scale ship I pictured above, I don't even want to know how long a galactic ship would take.

The longest part wasn't gathering the material but getting the labor required to put it all together.

hah, managed to crash the tutorial by blithely pressing f several times in the fleet part. Resulted in 6 ships thinking HURR DURR IMMA COMMAND FLEET (insert number 1-6), complete with little military rank signs next to them.

When i then told one of them to resign, it crashed ^^


Cool game so far, i don't mind playing a fun little sandbox even it's not precisely finished.
