Re: This game is an expensive coaster
Just a quick note guys.
This is coming from an offshoot of a post to another forum. The original poster decided to attack Aaron and myself on a forum on cdmag and attempted to call both of immoral and unethical and other such nonsense.
I am upset about this but let's keep it somewhat low key as maybe you guys can convince him otherwise. However with his posting on the cgOnline.com forum I somewhat doubt it, but there's always hope.

Re: This game is an expensive coaster
Richard I will respect your request, but sometimes people like this "person" need to be addressed.
I've been a gamer for over 40 years and I can say this
1st - this person is not a "gamer"
2nd - If he had the demo in Sept as he claims he knew what the game was like, therefore his statments are more then likely false
3rd - SEIV is one of the best computer strategy games ever put on the market, and with the modders additions, I don't know of any other game that can compare with the Ai
4th - Both you and Aaron have given and continue to give the "best support then any other gaming company, designer, or programer in the industry".
5th - This person sounds and appears to be someone who just wants to stir up trouble and in fact, I rather even doubt if this "person" actually has played the game let alone the mods
6th - If this "person" wanted to play other human players, why hasn't "it" played hotseat like a lot of the rest of us.
7th - therefore, I for one do not take anything "it" says to be other then what it realy is, and that is #$%^%$.
8th - I could go on but I hope "it" gets the point, and further if "it" doesn't like then "go to some other forum, we don't want or need persons of your unstable character here taking up space.
9th - I apoligize to you Richard and Aaron for my long winded post, and to all you other guys and gals on this forum, but this "person" needs to be taken to task
I again apoligize to everyone

Re: This game is an expensive coaster
I am in a PBEM game with 4 other guys on http://seiv.admiral.com where we have gone through 44 turns in the Last 20 days. That's over 2 turns a day average, not a "turn every 2 days."
That probably wouldn't be fast enough for some people waiting on TCP/IP, but I think its pretty damn good considering we all have jobs and live in different time zones.
In fact we'd probably be up to turn 60 by now, but the Last week or so I have been very busy with other things and have not been able to keep up my normal pace.

Well I have had enough of it to be honest, I just can't please some people.

NO, DEATHSTALKER, NO! 
I agree with everything you're saying, but I just cringed when you mentioned Battlecruiser. Don't you know Derek Smart's reputation? It is said that if you mention his name or his games three times in ANY forum, ANYWHERE on the internet, he will appear to defend himself and rip you a new one 
Kind of like the old saying, "speak of the devil, and he appears"
Oh, and as for you, Kagetora, you're a whining little dick. Go away.

Why bother? It won't do any good. He's just looking for attention. Ignore him and maybe he'll go away.
Don't feed the troll!

Re: This game is an expensive coaster
Some people would complain if they won the lottery. I think this may the case here.
