Howdy Folks
 

Been gone...layed off, relocated from Raleigh, NC to Kansas City and I'm ready for my fantasy life to start back up http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Give me the low-down on SE IV Gold http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif I have yet to order it, did it improve the product? Tell me all about it http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Re: Howdy Folks
 

Well, the release date was pushed back to March 4, so I have no idea what it's impact will be. It should improve the game significantly, but we shall have to wait and see.

Re: Howdy Folks
 

Have not played it yet. I am waiting for it in the mail. Too busy with pbem's to play the demo.

It's getting better.... still a few more improvements to make it greater than it already is( which is a hard thing to do )...

There is drones...

Check out some of the other threads on the drones... and perhaps someone who has played it can add to this ...

Re: Howdy Folks
 

Well, for starters, you get:
- "TCP/IP"
- Drones
- Some big AI improvements, both strategic and tactical.
- the 200 Megs of Mods/AI/Shipsets/Programs on CD

Plus tons of smaller changes that only the Beta Testers know about.

Cool http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

I am really looking forward to the better AI.

Funny that they pushed release all the back to March....wasn't it originally mid-January?
