<r>+1 on the change of typeface. That OCR font... well, "retro" is about the best thing you can say about it <E>:-)</E> I see what Andrew's getting at with it, but it doesn't do much for readability, and even OCR machines don't depend on it anymore, so it's actually (ironically) one of the most ...

Works great on my Win2K SP2 box.

<t>Does anyone like fighters? They seem pretty useless to me -- they fly around kind of inefficiently (they can't shoot as often as weapons on the ship itself), they take a bunch of slots, and they get blown up by point defense. Am I missing something? Does anyone like to make a go of them?<br/>
<br ...

<r>Love the game!<br/>
<br/>
But I have a quibble. When there's only one AI player left, the game enters total war. Now, that's fine. But why, when I've bombed their last planet almost to death, do I not get an option to ask them to surrender?<br/>

That's how I like to play: federation ...

<t>Thanks for posting the patch link! I downloaded it from ftp.matrixgames.com just fine. My only question (out of random curiosity) is, why is the patch not mentioned anywhere on the matrixgames site itself? It's not on the "Updates" page nor is it mentioned on the STUN : DG download page.<br/>
<br ...

<r>Well, I'm still in crunch mode at work, and can't take the time to play the living hell out of STUN : DG the way I want to. But I *can* take a couple of minutes to post some questions to this forum, so I can come back later & read a bunch of responses & time-lapse entertain myself that way <E>:-D ...

<r>Well, then you'll love this:<br/>
<br/>
I ordered the game two days ago on the 15th, to ship FedEx 2nd Day Delivery.<br/>
<br/>
They shipped it yesterday.<br/>
<br/>
It got here *today* at noon!<br/>
<br/>
Now the only problem is, I didn't have time to finish my work yet, so I can't play it yet ...

Will this patch be made available for download through the Matrix Games website? or through apezone.com? or both?

(also, how long is the average processing time for game orders through Matrix?)

Cheers!

<r>I got an XBox in November, and since then I've been playing lots of full 3D action / arcade mindless eye candy type games. (Well, Halo's not *totally* mindless, but....) Somehow all this blasting got me nostalgic for a good old explore-expand-exterminate experience.<br/>

I tried Starships ...
