Re: Any One Still Playing This Game?
Of course i still play!
I occasionally play some other games, but 90% of the time i either play SEIV or Baldur´s Gate 2, two classics that simply don´t age for me...
In fact, i´m in the middle of a medium game with slow research (10 times slower research production) and small AI bonus using TDM, where i´m at war against 3 AIs and allied with 1 other, and i still need to meet the other 15 AIs in the game (well, 14, as 1 appear to have been eliminated before i even meet it)
My copy of SEV finally arrived last week, but i played a few turns and got tired of the long processing times, so i stored it for when i have a better computer (at least 2 more years since i need to finish the payments of my new house first).
BTW: i´m with a 1.73Ghz processor (forgot the brand now), with 512MB Ram and a 256mb video card and a 7200rpm HD running WinXP Pro, what i should do to reduce turn processing times (both in SEIV and SEV)? Buy more ram or a better videocard?

LOL - I didn't know there was any interest in that set still. If so, I can finish it.

Re: Any One Still Playing This Game?
I was able to get through three screens of the SEV tutorial. I just can't take the 1 FPS refresh rate.
I am in one SEIV game having slowed down a lot for RL. But am about to get more into it. Still the best game I know out there.

Re: Any One Still Playing This Game?
Was recently "still playing", but got to turn 165 and the 'puter crashed briefly. No big deal there, but I found out I hadn't saved the game since 132.
Doh!
