Keep Up the Good Work

Distant Worlds is a vast, pausable real-time, 4X space strategy game which models a "living galaxy" with incredible options for replayability and customizability. Experience the full depth and detail of large turn-based strategy games, but with the simplicity and ease of real-time, and on the scale of a massively-multiplayer online game. Now greatly enhanced with the new Universe release, which includes all four previous releases as well as the new Universe expansion!

Keep Up the Good Work

Post by Chet Guiles »

Just wanted to say "Thanks" again for DW. As I read various gripes and rants about bugs in the game (and yes, I have have encountered a few myself) I wonder how many of US would stand up to the level of screutiny we want to give the GAME. This is a great game, and I have played repeatedly (and am still learning, of course) and have had little that I could call "GRRR! SNARL! SNAP!" kinds of bugginess. Especially 1.049.

I have had games (and more expensive software) that have been buggy and it would be forever before anything would be fixed or even looked at (can you say "Microsoft") -- so the quickness with which you and the Code Force guys are reacting is really super.

BTW even real life warplans, with massive planning staffs and the like, still SNAFU regularly when they encounter the real world. There will never be a perfect warplan, and there will never be perfect game programming when it's something as complex as this one is, but we need to show patience, and enjoy what we do have until it gets better.

That's my rant for today. [:D]

Agreed.

The fact that we're so excited about every feature of this game is a testament to the great product.

I am in agreement, very happy with the patching and community feedback. I look forward to playing this game, expansions and mods for years to come. Best space 4x I have played to date, even above Master of Orion 1 & 2!
