Favorite Aspect of SEIV

Its the uniqueness of the game itself that is appealing. The game can be modded to the point you actually have new games within the old game. The game is always changing with Mods, Patches, Shipsets, New Races etc, there is not another game out there or on the market that has the support of the original game company like SE4 does, nor is there any game that has the amount of continuous support by its producer.

I also enjoy the Tactical Combat aspect

Just some ideas Mac

In most my games I have Babylon5 races, ST races, Star Wars Empire and some truly unique aliens fighting each other. There is no limit to my imaginagion ! What other game in market can come even close ?!

Ah yes. So many things to see. The blaze of the monster red giant (Ow..) The swirl of the black hole.

Afer the first round of exploration is over and you see your claim to space, what have you got? Maybe 6 huge breathable worlds for resources, intel, and research. Or just a few. Or will you have to carve up the galaxy with only a few medium worlds for initial support?

Mod-dability

The original game is good, but the LARGE number of modifications, shipsets, and extra files is simply enough to make you numb.

And if you aren't satisfied with what's on the "market" you can always make your own.

I would have to say that this is Forum Utopia with everybody connected, almost no drugatory comments about others, and it's efforts to help others (too much that it's a contest now...)

My favorite?

Well it's a tie. The community, and how easily modified the game is -- easily enough for computer-illiterate folks like even me to feel able to assay the attempt! lol!

Or my favorite, "Oh NO! We're caught in the gravitational pull of a GIANT Q-TIP! Oh wait, no that's a massive gas giant core???"
