A cruiser that strikes at things.... This is the first time I ever heard of it. I think it is obscure enough we won't have to worry about it making the cut. So, unless our local game mod pimp (Juggy) puts it in, don't hold your breath.... Or do... Whichever...

Actual, this forum isn't to bad. Go to the Penny-Arcade or Gamespy forums sometime.

No, I think Gen.Vafer just forgot his meds... Well, I probably won't beat Delphi, I hate micro managment. I prefer the might and majesty of the horde and sweep across the galaxy like a locus swarm. That and I could never keep track of all my peon units... Stupid peons

Or twice the bigger target.

I'd actually like to see a completed mod more often. Most are never finished....

But what is the question?

The point of the game is to figure out why some mysterious things are happening to both the human colonies and the aliens the human just got done fighting with. But you don't have to do that, you can trade, pillage, and blow up what ever you want. In previous games you could even own a space station from which you could recieve money from the local commerce. You actually pilot your ship in this game. Its highly recommended to get a joy-stick with rudder control, because the mouse makes you look like a drunken duck (according to gamespot) when you're trying turn on you axis. You can also get upgrades for it, like weapons, armor, engines, and cargo capacity, or just buy a new type of ship. I'm not sure of any multiplayer functions, so.... The game is due out in the USA on Nov.5th, I believe this game has already been released in the UK and Europe.

Meh, my comp can handle most of anything that is thrown at it. I dunna like pop caps much, just because I'm more of a horde player.

*sigh* so much for my million stormy march...

Maybe units health will regenerate over time like in WCIII. Or unit producing things also double as health/repair stations.

As my accounting prof. says, "Lifes a bitch, then its over. Get over that fact and you'll do fine"

Oh god please.... Just because they don't have the "proper" squad number? I guess this is why I'm a gamer first and a fanboy second, small things don't ruin games for me. I don't actually see a problem with cutting down the squad number, except it gets hard to select individual flights/squadrons in large scale dogfights. Heck, maybe you could lump in various flights to make a sqaudron or maybe the fighters in the screen aren't up to full strength. Anyways, I not going to make up anymore excuses, because I really don't care. Just so long as the game-play clicks I'm happy.

/\ *Same as above post.

Do even some of ya'll know what a nebula is?

The galatic map can't be infinite since there are only so many smaller maps on the galatic map. I believe they're going for the C&C approach, that is no pop cap but you can only control so many units at once. Also note there is nothing indicating a pop cap in any of the screens.

Oh noz!!!! It'll be like Geoge Orwell's 1984!!! We're doom'zd unless we revolt now!!!

Anyone remember Republican Commando?

So.... You're hard-drive kill itself or what? Or are you really back from the bowels of hell, thus causing me to call the vatican to preform an exrocism?

Yeah, less units in the actual game there are, the easier it is for Juggy/Alucard to pimp his mod.

And just think of the reaction of all the un-informed fans when they're favorite post-Ep.IV unit isn't in.

Yeah.... Something else will. Murphy's Law dictates it.

ROFL! Ahhhhh... I retain my sanity for the weekend.

So you're volunteering for that? Also I've never seen a "usual" stay on topic post.... I think I've seen four, one of which was by me... I'm not going to touch "thats not very fair"

Probably won't go anywhere, there would be to much going against it. Big brother may be all knowing, but he does want to keep his job... Any politician that goes with this won't be in office very long.

What? You think I'd take up my precious slack time to post something as mundane as original thought? I'm a college student for goodness sake! Meh, this article hit on a lot of things I thought about "hardcore" fans, so I thought I'd share it.
