The problem is Matrixgames are too small for a game like Distant Worlds which has a wider audience than most the wargames here.The service is just too slow when compared to Paradox games,ect for news and martketing hype.<br/>

RE: ADMIRALS WE NEED THEM!

This is one thing I've always wanted in many games but none acutally pull it off effectively. Letting your AI control fleets and ships at the moment just isn't cutting it if you want to get anything done with your military.

RE: Do I need the physical shipment?

I can vouch for Dominions 3, it's overpriced for an older game, but it's very fun! (Get DW first though ;)

1.0.5.6 Fleet Assembling

<t> Hi, recently installed the beta patch and am loving it, except that there is a nearby pirate base that I want my fleet to take out. They (my fleet) are currently at my home planet, and whenever I order them to attack the base, it says "Assembling and then attacking blah blah blah" for a few ...

RE: Couple of Questions from New Player

Eh, I'll answer question 2.

You both share control. They will get pissed off at you unless someone gives up their colony. You can negotiate this in negotiations (diplomacy screen).

RE: Distant Worlds is Way Way Way Too Easy

<t> I think the underlying problem is that all the resources in the game are far too plentiful to everyone. Strategic resources aren't strategic if they're available practically everywhere, or can be shipped across the galaxy within a real life minute or so. It would add a new layer of depth if you ...

RE: Distant Worlds 1.0.4 Public Beta 4 Now Available!

I just retired a cruiser I discovered within a few years of game start. I started with basic technology, research set to normal. After I retired this cruiser, I completely finished the hyperdrive tree.

Want a save/screenie? Or is this somehow intended?

RE: Distant Worlds 1.0.4 Public Beta Now Available

<t> An auto refueling problem: I told my fleet to go save my mining station from imminent pirate destruction. They had about 3/4 fuel. I'm like, "yeah, go go!" They skip it and go to the gas station RIGHT NEXT TO IT to refuel, even though they have 3/4 fuel available. The gas station is destroyed ...
