Re: This game is an expensive coaster
Simple - If you don't like a game, you don't play it.
No one in the world has liked everything they have ever purchased. It's part of life to try things and learn from those experiances.

Re: This game is an expensive coaster
Not surprisingly, you people have no clue what you are talking about. Those that feel as I do about this game haven't been sitting here posting about how great this unfinished product is. We have been patiently waiting for more than 8 months for the product we already paid for to be delivered. As to the mods, Aaron didn't even write those. How can you give credit to his game for an AI that he didn't even participate in creating? You all know as well as I do that TCP/IP play was implied, promised whatever you want to call it for this game and it hasn't been delivered. Instead, Aaron has supposedly been catering to the miniscule minority of mod makers and players of such while ignoring the vast majority of those who are waiting for the internet opinion in silence. As to better games, I haven't even finished a game of this because playing the AI is the equivelent of beating up a baby and taking it's juice and just about as much fun too. Any game I can actually play would be a vast improvement.

Re: This game is an expensive coaster
If you feel you have bought a defective product then you should probably ask for your money back. I personally feel like I got the deal of the century with this game. It has surpassed all my expectations.

Re: This game is an expensive coaster
Man am I bummin! I bought this new piece of software called Windows 2000 that was supposed to be the answer to all my problems. The advertisement told me I could do all my spreadsheets, databases and word processing documents as well as surf the Internet and get E-Mail. All that it came with was this program called 'WordPad'. I want my money back!!!
Now there are people telling me I need to go out and buy a word processor as well as pay for an Internet ISP!!!
Boy, I bet there are a LOT of people that feel as screwed by Microsoft as I do!!!

Re: This game is an expensive coaster
Kagetora,
You seem like a person that likes to play real time strategy games and first person shoot-em up games. SEIV is not a real time strategy game, nor is it a shoot-em up game. It is turn based.
YOU DO NOT play this game using some of the mods created by this user comunity. If you had, you could not substantiate your comments. This is not a guess, IT IS FACT. Ask the Users from this forum, they will tell you. IF you own this game, download some of the AI mods, and give them a try. Post your save games every 10 or 20 turns and show us that you are still beating up a baby. In other words, put up or shut up.

Re: This game is an expensive coaster
I am coming in late to this lamb-basting of him.
Ok!
First- Everyone has a right to feel that if they did not get what the thought they were getting that they have a right to complain about the product.
Second- This is the first game were I can have a big influence on:
a- the design, the designers are very open to e-mails and discussing player ideas
b- i can actually change the game by modding it to what I would like it to be like. I am not a programmer but can chnage a text file.
You don't get that sort of support from other gaming houses, mostly you by a buggy game and some time in the future they may realease a patch. MM and all have endevoured to fix bugs as quickly as found.
True this is not the game that I fully like but it comes dam close.
If you don't like it then sell it off to someone who might.
You have had your say so now you can get up from the table and leave the building.
