I'm blown away...

Congratulations Ironclad on your first title. It's amazing.

I just finished my second single player game, and all I can say is wow. The Vasari graphics are amazing. I dont have a clue what the few complainers are talking about. I sat there and giggled to myself as I spun the models in 3D, watching them glisten in the starlight. The battles are epic and the game play is awesome. IMO multiplayer is where this game is really going to shine.

Ironclad is definitely a company to watch for in the future.

Gimme moarz real time / tic based strategy gamez plz.

You aren't allowed to use the word EPIC anymore, I believe Yarlen banned it... :NOTSURE:

No. *glares at kosc*  :( 

The final graphics are a step above what's in Beta 4 when you crank all the settings. ;)

I hope these graphics are brilliant, but I'm worried I'll feel dirty after running low settings on my laptop.

There is a nice breakdown of graphic settings that allow you to allocate resources as you see fit.

most excellent. I'd wish other companies were so friendly to gaming on limited resources and while mobile as you guys are.

Well, its not right to exclude people from good gaming just because their system is a few years old  :(   Long live gaming for all!  X-(

Yeah, it isn't fair to exclude people whose rigs are a few years old. I mean, computer tech doesn't become obsolete for at least three seconds after its released!

OK, make that two.

That said, it is fair to "exclude" people who haven't bought a new PC in the last 5 years... heck, 3 or 4 years is too long! :D

if you maintain the game like galciv2 with patches and new features this will be a nice game to play for more than a day ;)

I must join Micaletti in saying that Sins is by far the best space based RTS I have ever played. And it's only Beta 4!

Just finished a four hour game against 5 opponents and the game ran as smooth as no other game ever did. Not a single crash, not a single slowdown on the highest of settings. I am extremely impressed.

No doubt every battle I went through was on a scale not met by any other game before. No doubt the weapons, explosions, textures and models are all epic, just like the sounds and the music. I must point out that speaking from a point of view of a musician the same musical score would sound much richer and carry much deeper message if it was played by actual orchestral instruments, but those are the limitations of a keyboard, not the musician. Most certainly epic compositions from my perspective.

Definitely would like to thank both Stardock and Ironclad for putting this much effort into this unforgettable title. Attention to detail is noticeable from the first minute in the game. Definite thanks for listening to all of us through the time of the build. The game has come a long way from early beta, can't wait for the final product.

There is no feeling like a 16 capital ship armada with a ton of support ramming through the universe... Even if it's a digital one. You guys have hit a jack pot and you know it! I bet you giggle in joy at night before bedtime you bastards :LOL: (j/k)!

All the best to the best of you!

Yes, like the ladies I cherish and love so much in life. Please dont forget "bite size" as it is just as important. :SURPRISED:

That comes across as both very wrong and yet...humorous.

Perhaps wrong and humourous are the same thing.....at least to Yarlen ;p
