The SEV UI STINKS. I will NOT buy SEV unless and until the UI is made useable.

Well it went Gold today. Which means that UI changes are probabaly out. Maybe a patch, huh? Anyway, I plan to wait a few of weeks and pick it up for $20.00.

Re: SE V demo Interface
BK, out of curiousity, do you have the video set to Auto, or Safe? I've found that setting it to Safe solved the major problems I had. Too bad there's no setting to make the UI better lol..

Not that I don't believe you, but I can't find a 'gold' announcement anywhere. What was your source?

Re: SE V demo Interface
It is being talked about here:
spaceempires.net
Supposedly their newsletter stated this (I saw someone else mention it also, but can't remember where). They sure aren't the press release gurus, huh.

Not compared to Shrapnel I feel. I see news articles all over on Dominions 3 and Rising Star from Shrapnel, but I havent seen much about Space Empires V.
I thought the difference was that Strat 1st was shelfware and marketing, vs online and publicity. The wait-for-profits was supposed to be to get larger player base?
Has anyone seen any ads in magazines or anything? Im not trying to slam S1. Im just hoping that Aaron got what he wanted.

Re: SE V demo Interface
Personally, if it wasn't for this board I wouldn't even know the SEV demo was out. I haven't seen a single thing about SEV anywhere other than here (and other fan sites) and the official site.
