Jade Empire? Kang the Mad approves.

Funny glitch. There was also the "barren planet field" glitch some time ago. That was quite crazy too.

<t> The game with expansion(s) VS. The game without its expansion(s) has been thrown out a lot in ES forums too, and I have to agree. The current ES has all kinds of small issues, but I can look through most of them 'cause I have faith in the dev team. <br/>
Time will tell how ES does against other ...

Oooo... so there's news on expansion and possible DW2 coming! Should be good.
Speaking of expansion, hopefully diplomacy, AI and exploration are the main focus on this one. We'll see...

<t> Pretty much agree with shinobu. Great looking game wih lots of potential. Can get repetitive in larger games where you slugfest or steamroll enemy empires. It has lot of promise and I'll definetly play it and keep an eye on its developement. <br/>
Playing ES actually made me come back to ...

<t> The Endless space definetly isn't anything wholly new and unique. It's pretty much traditional turn-based 4X with great visuals, and that's totally fine by me. Also, many of its features aren't finished in the current alpha (obviously) so I wouldn't jump into any conclusions about how they work ...

<t> Well, pre-ordered Endless space, intalled alpha, played for about 50 turns as Sophons (Yeah, the egg-heads of Endless Space) and enjoyed every minute of it. <br/>
Must say, for an alpha version, this game has huge amount of potential. Especially if what I've read about upcoming features and ...

Thanks for the tip Adam!
The game sure looks and sounds good. Gonna pre-order it today and see how it is myself.

<t> I was sceptic, but on the fence about the Endless Space when I first saw it. After noticing it on Steams news today and watching the trailer I'm very, very interested. Probably will pre-order it in a day or two. Looks really polished for an 4X. <br/>

Yes, we are working on a new expansion for Distant Worlds, which we expect to release by Q4 of this year. No details available yet, but we will provide more info once we are further along.<br/>

I've been trying to get back playing more on PC, but ME3 (both SP and MP) and Forza 4 have eaten surprising amount of my free time. <br/>

Time is relative.

Seriously though: My guess is that we'll get some news in a day or two, and no later than friday I dare to say.

<t> Yea, I've been mostly lurking too in recent times. I still play DW regulary, alongside with SoaSE (waiting for the Rebellion expansion) and SPAZ (waiting for the free "Bounty Hunter expansion"). But, I have to admit that majority of my gaming time has been spent replaying ME1&ME2 and playing ME3 ...

<t> I've used "refuel at nearest" command and it has worked well from what I remember. Still, all instances of this were in distant space, away from my main empire, and the resupply ship had cargo-holds full of fuel. <br/>
My random guess is that, when using "refuel at nearest" command, fleet ...

Now, that's a proper amount of snow! I remember some snowy winters when I was younger and still lived in countryside, but that's quite crazy.

What others have said; 1.7.0.10 is quite damn stable considering it's a "beta" patch. I don't honestly even remember when I had a clear crash in the Legends.
Also, what Ashbery said. The borders make the game much more sensible, be the SoIs "realistic" or not.

Turians homeplanet is Palaven. It's a desert planet with weak magnetic field, resulting in high solar radiation, which in turn has caused the Turians to evolve the protecting exoskeleton you can see on them.<br/>

Very interesting suggestions. Many of these could indeed work nicely. The only problem is to get 'em balanced, so they don't harm the "AI" players while skilled human player finds a way around and reaps the benefits.<br/>

The problem with somewhat complicated (by gaming ...

<t> Sounds like late game economy seriously needs some cash-suckers. In my opinion, this should be the next important mechanic to fix after the design fixes.<br/>
One thing I've noticed recently: In most games the corruption doesn't have any real effect on your economy, no matter how large your ...

<t> Some things I've found to keep the economy in sensible levels and the games challenging even late games:<br/>
- Use automated taxes. I've always done this as I hate microing colony taxes in 4Xs. Also, automated taxes won't allow you to abuse the taxing system and thus making shitloads of ...
