A Moo3 Reject

Saarud · #1 March 7th, 2003, 02:39 AM

Moo3 is a Macromanagement game once you accept that and play thereafter the game becomes infinitive better. Still it can't compare against Space Empire IV that easily is the best in the genre.

Perhaps Galciv will change that but I hardly think so.

Anyway I have owned my copy of Se4 for about 6 month now and have not discover the beutiful realm of Se4 mods until now. The Question is what mod to play? I want to play the most advanced mod with the best ai. Which one would you mod veterans say I should try?

Since I play mostly Proportions mod, this is the one I recommend.

Proportions my friend, Proportions. If you want something that feels as real as an strategy game can be, Proportions is the one for you.
Once you get on board, there is no coming back.

Well, you can take things to another level without saying bye-bye to single player and/or firing up the mods. If you've been playing your combat scenarios using hands-on tactical mode, try strategic mode.

I haven't gone there (yet) myself. But based off of the postings I see regarding strategic combat -- what with all of the subtleties of setting your strategies, formations, ship mix, etc. -- it sounds like it opens up a whole new dimension of challenge. It's probably a little more in line with what MOO3 had in mind: you give your fleet vague orders, and hope like hell that they do their job right.

I have been told that FQM (esp. the Deluxe Version) is a good mod to play. You can even merge it with other mods, as per the info in the help folder.

I'm interested in this FQM mod.
Have you played it a lot Fyron?
Is it good?
