I just started playing Sins a few weeks ago with Beta 3, last night I completed my first game. A Middle size universe with 4 factions and 3 stars. I made friends with Orange and killed Red and Green, figuring that it was now time to renounce my alliance with Orange and defeat them, however I was declared victor instead. I think that I should have been forced to fight Orange, it should be last man standing.
Also, does anyone else notice the heavy use of processor core 1 and that core 2 in un-utilized.
