So....Now what?

April 19, 2007 4:40:17 AM from Sins of a Solar Empire ForumsSins of a Solar Empire Forums
Is anyone else left with the feeling of not really knowing what to do right now?

I mean, I keep playing the game, and right now I feel like I've mastered the TEC. The game runs flawlessly on my computer, I notice very few bugs or errors or things that need improvement.

I know the next update with be in June, but for now I feel like there is some other way I can contribute, but I can't think of anything.

Ironclad, is there anyway you could throw us a bone and give us something else in addition to test or tinker with? Even something small?

i agree with you on that, not much else to do.

I would love to see MP at this stage. I know from previous posts, that the devs have some sort of MP ready, as they told that they were playing against each other. So maybe beta1 could become beta1.5 with MP. As the beta1 is about if stuff just works.
Even though if we had to add the IP to just play a 1vs1, that i wouldnt mind at all.

I even think that if MP was here, there would be more beta testers

Learning how to mod the game would be a good thing I think.

This game in development compared to where it will be in a year will be so radically different that anything we do now won't matter that much.

Don't get me wrong, love the decision to wait, was really worried that some features would have to be added in later or modded in.

Right now we're testing the game engine and the graphics engine, I get the feeling that if the graphics engine doesn't get at least one or two updates to it by 2008 people will feel the game looks dated. That's just a fact of life, like Stalker being delayed, some people feel it's graphics look dated.


I'd just like to know a little bit more about what we should be doing next. Waiting till June?

I agree, release something: multiplayer or another race or even the full TEC or something else to tinker and tear apart.

We're still in technical testing. Once Ironclad has additional bug fixes in that people have mentioned, those will be released and (hopefully) those issues will be resolved. I'm sure other bits will make it in as well as we move along, however.

Well usually when I think of solar empires sure its galactic.It would be cool to have the option to invade and build cities on planets that would be used to inhabit resources as well.


Of course ground base would have there own unique military units like tanks,and fighters just for land base stuff to and buildings heh.

Magician that sound suspensively close to MOO 3 with few graphic improve and of course few thing different, except for the tech tree which isn't even the same.
