TF2 is first person, you see though the eyes of the character you are playing. Third person is where you are playing and can see your character on the screen in front of you.

I've played it a bit. It is a bit very slow paced, and fairly confusing to start off with. You may want to look up a guide to how to play until you get the hang of it. Also you will be reading, a lot. It is a kind of fusion of adventure game and rpg. If you have the time and patience for it I think it would be worth picking up the bundle.

Other Games / Re: SE4 CarrierBattles mod not working?
« on: March 20, 2011, 03:06:43 pm »
Can't really think of any reason that you would be getting all those errors. As far as I can recall Carrier Battles was a simple mod to install. You are installing the mod to it's own folder not just overwriting the stock data files right?

It may be worth doing a fresh install, in case any of your previous installing of mods has effected something.

Been a while since I messed around with SEIV mods but this should work.

While the instructions use the TDM mod, just replace with Imperium Verus in the instructions and it should work.

If you still have problems I'd recommend asking over at http://www.spaceempires.net/forums.html, although it may take a little while to get a response.

Gah! I'm annoyed. I've been downloading when I haven't been using the internet connection for anything else since the preloading went up. Half an hour ago I saw the decrypting files dialogue pop up and thought 'ah I might have a chance to play a bit tonight', but no, after the dialogue disappears the download screen reports that I have been set back to 5.5gig out of the 16! From what I can see on the steam forum, a small update that is causing many people to be unable to play the game went out at the same time.

Steam servers are too busy to handle any more preloads :(
Just retry a couple of times. Started fine after the second time for me.

Pre-loading is definitely enabled now, though at 16 gig it's going to take a while.

I have to say the new fan is positively nasty in the hands of a scout who knows how to communicate with his team. Alternatively combined with the FAN when running around on their own. It also marks cloaked spies who are hit, although judging from past form that will be patched out in a later update.

I have to say unlike most I liked both SE IV and SE V, as they both do different parts well. Definitely pick up one or both if you are into 4x games.

For other laid back games, Eufloria, any of the Civilization series, Disciples II, Total War series.

From what I recall reading over on kerebos forums a while back, it's not going to be six species but six factions for sots2. As the timeline has moved on from the first game, there was to be a blurring of the former strict lines between the races. Of course this could have changed since I last looked a while back.

If one species was to be removed as a top level species, the Zuul being subsumed into the forces of the Suul'ka would make the most sense from a backstory perspective.

Ok, up on that one, with a slight change.

edit: Also posted a note up over on the DFC community page on steam, so hopefully get some more people adding to this.

Sounds like a good idea.

You may want to add another space for steam name as quite a lot of us use a different name on there.

Just ran across an amusing account over on the steam forums.

Discovering the secrets of the Tradeamous-Ignoramus tribe: an expedition.

They could probably reasonably get away with the fact you don't need to actually spend any money to get a key, you can trade found items/metal to someone else who has chosen to purchase one.
