SEV: What am I REALY getting for my money?

SE IV is not SE V and SE V is a completely differant kind of game from SE IV.. SE V will have 3d combat and RT ground combat whereas SE IV does not. SE IV, in my humble yet illinformed opinion, will remain a solid stand alone alternative game from its younger brother for many years too come.

BINGO !!!


I happen to like the way SE-IV visually works now !!!

I am more interested in the 4x aspect of it than the REAL-TIME or 3D (ooooooh, aaaaaah, how flashy...) combat, the new interfaces, the new this, the new, the new that-other-thingy.

Improvements on the operational aspects, such as research, AI's, treaties, and the like are admittedly great, but if what I really wanted was a realtime 3d game, there are certainly other, better titles out there dedicated to exactly that, and little else.
