#46Wow. The map is really, really impressive. It reminds me how much I miss Master of Orion 2, one of the (if not THE) best strategy games I've ever played.
Master of orion 1 is better because it doesn't have the stupid fleet size limit.
Master of Orion 1 also got me to reverse enough of its save format to move planets around so I could make a crude scenario editor, leading to my current career in infosec.

#47Well, it reminds me of Star Citizen for sure -- in that it's a pretty-looking interface but overburdened with unacceptably long loading times, laggy and unresponsive feedback in the UI, and motion blur on all the things to the point of being unusable. Every few months I look into where SC is at, and am not surprised to see more flash and surface-level polish, more extra features no one was asking for, and yet core ga…

In the actual game, the FPS kills their otherwise really fun UI. I finally got to play it at 40 FPS or more recently and it makes an insane difference to how it all feels. It doesn't feel clunky or broken when it's running properly. You also start to understand some of their choices when you play for a while and feel the built in pacing of the game. It's not a flashy fast paced space call of duty. Every interaction i…
And 40sec of load time on an SSD? That's a lot if you ask me. Fortnite loads in It's great hat they are making improvements, but as another commenter said it seems like they haven't polished core gameplay enough -at least not enough for me to care.

You are making it sound good... I can't imagine playing any FPS at 40FPS. And 40sec of load time on an SSD? That's a lot if you ask me.
