Reply to Shannara and other great reads in Everything Else Sins Forums

Anne McCaffrey's Dragonriders of Pern is decent, although it is much more science fiction than fantasy. I especially like the way it deals with time travel. Also, the Dinotopia books are amazing. They have some incredible art work, all done by author himself. While story is fairly good, it is the art that is the best part. Thanks for the recomended order for the Shannara series, I have read a fe

Any chance of using the race 'packs' you plan to split this mod into to release 2.5 quicker? You could release the 'base' mod with one or two race 'packs' and then release each race as you update them for Entrenchment. Then after you have them all done you can release the all-in-one mod option that you said you plan to have.

Reply to Torrents, Is it ever OK in PC Gaming Sins Forums

The reason game makers don't like piracy is because they want money for their work. Abandonware by definition gives its makers no money. The result of pirating abandonware is that there is not even a potential for loss of money by those who made it. To use the piracy = theft comparison many people use, pirating adandonware would be like someone taking something after you throw it away.

[quote]Okay, I'll agree that your logic is messed up and that sums it up. This is a strategy-based RPG game meant to use your heros to distroy the other team (whether it be by killing them off or distroying there structures). This is not a RTS game where you actually use strategy to build your own base in order to distroy the enemy base. Lets keep those 2 things in mind here as my reference is to the way they have this game developed currently and not your dulsional asp

[quote] 1. Your character selection is very small. For this type of game, it really should be much larger or at least twice it's size so that it doesn't feel like it's bland after playing it for several days. It almost reminds me of the original Mortal Kombat or Street Fighter which is not a good thing since this is supposed to be something much better.[/quote]

I don't think any honest person, even the most anti-pirate ones, can deny that this is a conflict of interest and that there needs to a retrial with a neutral judge.

To the OP: Just be glad you were not in the beta where Oak's Spirits had over 2k+ health. Also, it sounds like you need to play an Oak or Erebus against a good Regulus player from the beta. That should get rid of all your complaints about them being overpowered and better than any assassin.

They are trying to avoid the possible spread of functional standalone patches from legit users and this takes me to the question about customers being treated as pirates. In reality Stardock do not trust on we, legal customers. They do not trust on Impulse certificated legal customers neither. If not, why not enable a "backup patch" option in Impulse and with this

If you are going to shoot for the sky, might as well toss in wanting it to have the modability of Freelancer(Some of the stuff for it is just insane compared to the base game). As long as we are wishing, toss in some FPS action as well.(at the very least it would be nice for boarding and capturing large ships)

Reply to The Pirate Bay founders sentenced to prison in PC Gaming Demigod Forums

[quote]Okay - let's presume the rate is 0%, can we get better games?[/quote] As it is Stardock ignores the pirates when making their games. So while having no piracy would be nice, I don't see it causing a noticable increase in game quality. Stardock would be happy for sure, but I think the biggest result would be Stardock taking more risks on the types of games it publishes/develops.

Its possible that there is a limit on weapon hardpoints per model, but I do not know the exact numbers. The "official" word is 10 firing points per weapon so 30 total, however modders have been able to go above 10 without side effects. It may be 30 global spread out however among all weapons, or it just might be a bit higher than 30.[/quote
