Re: Sins of a Solar Empire
I saw the game at Fry's Electronics the other day while shopping for a new pc power supply. They wanted $49.99 for the collector's edition and $39.99 for the regular. A Fry's sticker covered up what was extra in the collectors's box. Something about a poster and something else? I really couldn't tell. The game looks really cool but I have enough games atm. I will probably pick it up within the year maybe at Gamestop for lower price down the road.

Isn't it customary to provide links when you mention such mods?

Re: Sins of a Solar Empire
Ah, that's much different from the "Sins Enhanced Skyboxes" mod that one can find on the official site's Mods link.

Re: Sins of a Solar Empire
well been playing the game for a week now.
I like it. Slow research slow game speed. Lost the first 5 games learning it. Won the last one. Too bad it did not have a 30 second turn or something...

Re: Sins of a Solar Empire
Does it require online activation like Stardock's other products do?

Re: Sins of a Solar Empire
Mine only asked the serial when i ordered it to update online... And i believe you need some kind of serial verification when playing multiplayer (i donīt know for sure because i donīt play multiplayer)

Does that mean that it could have done an activation check then? The way to be sure is to see if it tries to connect online when you install or apply a (previously downloaded) update offline.
