I've been posting around some of the star trek Boards for my mod, hopefully a few BOTF fans will see the value in SE:IV and buy it!

As most other things, with SE4 the forum is made another way aswell http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

I'd love a 3d map as that which seems to be in Moo3.
It will propably not add much to the game but I could propably sit a long time and zoom around in a 3d map.
In Elite II Frontiers there was a 3D map and I loved it.
It makes me feel like it's actually stars we're dealing with. Not a 2D gameboard.

Mondu999.

I understand what your saying and agree with you.

The only reason I touched it was because it involved space and the 4x.

But that simplicity has an added bonus. It is easier to mod for people who are not graphically inclined http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif .

THis is the reason I have not touched the Dungon game. I would rather play Bioware games.

Disappointed!!! Darn Disappointed!!!

Okay, I've not even posted on the MOO forum yet because I'm so disappointed. MOO3 brought up visions of Reach for the Stars II for me, after years of loving the original, in MOO's case, the first two...MOO3 was a huge letdown. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon9.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon9.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon9.gif

I was actually bored in playing this ugly duckling, without much of chance of turning into a Swann. 4 years for a game with seriously outdated graphics and interface, and a primitive AI. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon8.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon8.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon8.gif

Okay, when is SEIV 5 due to be released! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...s/confused.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...s/confused.gif

So I read atrocities' post about se4, and clicked on over here. I am definately intrigued enough to warrent a purchase, but I had some slight reservations depending on when se5 was coming out. If it is a year off, then I might go ahead with se4 gold.

Modding doesnt scare me- Im modding morrowind right now, so that isnt a huge thing for me to work on. But I would likely be playing this single player, and wouldn't want to put too much effort right out of the box altering the AI to suit my tastes. After a while Id probably go nuts and bolts with it, but what about the initial sp play?

According to Aaron's own words on the SE4 thread, it will be well over a year till SE5 will come out.

Tbontob, you make it sound so grim by saying well over a year. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

HEHEHE!!!

Yeah, at this point anything SEIV Release 5 would be better than MOO3 1... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif but you're right it's SEV...I hope that game kicks butt!!! More of SEIV with updated tech (real world) and more updated Tech in the game as well.

I've being playing MOO3 over the past 3 days...extensively, and it's not too bad a game, it's just simply not groundbreaking...so why the heck did we have to wait so long for this outdated game!!! That's my major beef with MOO3.

I'm also looking forward to this new 3-D game for SE.

Re: oooo aaron! - looks like moo3 is flopping... ;) do se5 faster?

So what about gal civ? What are your opinions about that game? From the stuff I read on the forums, they consider themselves less mainstream than the MOO franchise, and admit that it isn't necessarily the MOO3 that people want, but it is much more focused and a more polished interface/AI than MOO3 currently is.

What are the impressions here about gal civ?

I tihnk GalCiv will be great. Especially the AI.
I haven't heard anything bad about it yet, and unlike with MoO3, the betatesters aren't under any NDA, so if there's anything they don't like, they can say it without breaking any contract.

Btw, GalCiv has gone gold a few days ago. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon6.gif

GalCiv has no multiplayer. So after you learn to beat the AI, well, you have learned to beat the AI, and you'll have to play worse.
