Doesn't matter. It will be released on Steam eventually and I know they do it for financial reasons, which is far more accaptable then microtransactions or chocking us with DLCs.

Tbh if you want to support the devs, buying on Epic is actually much more supportive as Epic takes a much smaller cut in general, and with partnered exclusive releases they take even less commission. Definitely not a fan of so many gamers thinking that buying on steam is better. While I like the Steam UI better, Valve has become a bloodsucking asshole company and they don't deserve the 30% they take from developers.

@@soliitudegaming7275 I don't use Epic because I see no point in it. Steam has (almost) everything I need. GOG I use for older games like Prince of Persia, World in Conflict, Stalker, Jade Empire because Steam has problem running them and GOG offers them cheaper with better support. In other words, Steam and GOG are complimentary. Uplay I use only because they were offering that one time Far Cry 3 for free. Otherwise, I wouldn't touch anything related to post-2009 Ubisoft because they can remove my game at their whim as they have proven multiple times. I won't even bother using Battlnet because Blizzard made it clear I rent their games and not own them so if they can't show basic respect to me, why should I show basic respect to them? Finally I don't have Origins, but if I ever bother creating it, I will do it only to avoid their Origins forced launcher on Steam or by trying SWTOR. As for Epic, it's more like Origins. Not bad, but why should I divide my library even futher? They are like Steam and GOG, but don't offer anything new except that launching game one year earlier (I buy games few yearls later), they are not predatory like Uplay and Battlenet and they are not forcefull on certain games like Origins. So for me personaly it's not about how I hate Epic and I want them to fail (Unreal Engine is surprisingly good for modeling and that's enough for me to like them), but I simply have no use for them.

@@aleksapetrovic6519 You do know that Steam has the same policies right? They can remove any game you have purchased as you are merely "paying for temporary access" that can be revoked at their "discretion". While I know it can be mildly annoying to "split" your library, every gamer on PC has multiple launchers and I think its very VERY weird how much gamers complain about companies treating them unfairly, while intentionally choosing to create monopolies by refusing to use other products. If you are a gamer who cares about supporting devs, Epic is by far the best platform for that. If you prefer to give Valve a monopoly because clicking one extra button on your desktop is a huge deal... I think thats a bad anti-consumer practice.
Honestly this is a really good start. The new engine feels great. The rest will fall into place for the next year. Things I'd like to see: Map editor, Ship loadouts or buildable turrets, more pirate customization as an actual force, old research tree returned, more mod friendly and obviously more ships, titans, stations, ect.

I can't wait for the mods!!
It will be a phenomenal game once it's finished. They didn't try to remake the game for casuals that I've seen a lot of other companies do. They basically ported the original foundation of Sins and expanded on it with more advanced features. It's exactly what I wanted for sins 2. Only thing I hope they make more compelling is the AI as well as make it more modular for modders. All of that is really locked down in the original games.

Thank you. Your video reassured me that the best thing to do (for me) is to wait until it's more "feature complete". I absolutely adore the new model for the Kol Battleship. It dominates the space it's in compared to the rest of the fleet. I was "meh" on the turrets but actually seeing them in action really hits the spot. I do want to call out how beautiful the impacts on shields look too. Wonderfully well done. Custom ship load outs I'm a bit wary of. Stellaris has always had trouble balancing with it's custom load outs (though that could be more because of all the crazy options and min/max you can do).

@@Zade_95 Appreciate what you mean, but I liked the options in Sins 1 as you had the apprehension of thinking "has my opponent gone heavy in civ research at the start or military?" and you had to guess/plan accordingly, whereas now it'll be "well he has x number of planets, so while I don't know exactly what he is researching I know his potential already" - I just prefer more options rather than less, because streamlining can also lead into flattening I think in a way.
Looks great! May end up watching for the full release, since I feel Sins1 was a little on the shallow side of RTSes and it sounds like there aren't quite enough pieces in place in Sins2 yet for there to even be a chance of depth (although I'm not ruling out the possibility; I think the format itself (grand RTS) has tons of potential!). I suppose I don't even feel Stellaris' approach (overload the game with features, traits, origins, etc) is the only way to do that sort of RTS well. I can definitely imagine a tighter RTS with a lot less content, but where using each thing has more depth to it. Basically several steps towards Starcraft 2 (which gets its depth from tactical mastery and APM rather than sheer number of techs and strategies).
@Axehilt
Жыл бұрын
@Alexander Kerensky It didn't though; after all, Stellaris _is_ a 4X+RTS hybrid. It's more on the 4X side than Sin's RTS tilt, but they're pretty similar in both trying to mix those genres. So Sins didn't have to be as shallow as it was. (Also I'm not saying it's really _really_ shallow, just that it wasn't nearly as deep as it should've been.)
I would like to see phase lanes turn red when they are close to collapsing. As far as the background color of deep space it would be cool if the background, when zoomed in to a planet, would be a shade of the owners color.

I think pirate capital ships for late game. I was playing advent rebels last night and the pirates just stopped being a threat to anyone, like a massive pirate fleet went through my space and my titan killed most of it before they left
i was having simular framerate issues with this as the first one. i am wondering if the alpha /tech version is just running on top of the old sins engine with some updated graphics. to be honest.
Definitely agree with the tech tree looking better in the original. That list of research does not look great. Have the pirates been able to get their hands on Vasari and Advent ships? That would be cool to see. There has been a war going on a long time, and at least a few ships would probably have been worth salvaging. Otherwise it looks good. I like the metallic look of the old UI, but I'm not going to die if it changes.

Really like the specialized resources for ship construction and the specilized ship moduels you can put on capitals. Personally, I am not a huge fan fo the new TEC models, I always thought they were normal tade ships with guns straped on, versus the sleek look they have. Also combat feels a little to fast compared to the rest of the game and could be slowed down or a game option to adjust a damage modifier.

Ironclad has long since lost my trust but since its a SOSE 2 release that can run on multi core, I am interested but will remain at a distance till its done.
"I ran it on Ryzen 9 3900x 64gb of ram and rtx 3070 and there were absolutely no issues"
Can't wait, for it to be avialable on other providers!
Oh man It's out and I get to play? Sweet. *It's only on Epic Store* Guess I gotta wait.
I'll wait. Please make a video when it is out of Early Access.

I will boss
I want more detail in the combat part of the game. Starsector has every single turret and every single bullet simulated. This might not have been possible with 32 bit programs (ignoring how Total Annihilation managed this back in 1997) but computers are much more powerful now Fighters+bombers were too simplistic in the first game. There could be an "interceptor" class that priorities shooting down bombers but is completely incapable of attacking starships . Hangars could hold heavy fighters that are too large for normal carriers and fight by jousting rather then dogfighting. Bombers might return to the carrier after firing their hullbreaker torpedoes while gunships instead focus on disabling weapons. If carriers are going to remain powerful ships then it's reasonable to expect effort to be put into that part of the game
Well it is still unfinished so I care not if it is EGS exclusive while it is still in early access. Years ago I pirated the original game until I got my credit card and I got it around the time Rebellion came around and bought every single DLC that came after that. Being what it is I want to pick it up in GoG of all places. Unless maybe you are a modder and need to get started working on it now.
It's a yr later how is it now? Was thinking about picking it up. I'm not a epic hatter 😂
I hope if this came out on steam, they'll better open up steam workshop both 2 and rebellion.

Too bad it's an Epic Store Exclusive. Though I guess that is also a positive as we can pick it up when all the major bugs get hashed out and it'll release for a discount.

Man I'm kinda sad to see the game on the EGS... another game that falls to the marketing black hole that is that joke of a store. I hope that it comes to steam by 1.0. I guess I'll buy it then
Cant wait to play it when it comes to the real store in a year xp. Till then, the epic store marks can have fun beta testing
Looks cool, I'll be waiting for a proper release as I don't like early access very much. Hoping I can turn the titans off, never been a fan of those things.

Great idea, I'd recommend that for most imo. Yeah me too, the more options the better!
This will satisfy my pew pew in outer space ich.
It's funny.. I absolutely HATE automatic pinning of planets just because there's a starbase or whatever present. I might put one to ensure a trade chain's viability but otherwise not care about it. Or put one down for culture pressure in an asteroid belt as Advent.. no reason to keep an eye on it at all..

Hoping it will come with full release. Will be VERY unfortunate if not
I'm not happy with the fact that it is basically just a reskin. Sure Planets orbit around the sun now, and Ship Turrets can fire in more directions, but exactly is different other than the look? The least I want from sins 2 are more non-Capital Ships, preferably heavy Frigates/Cruisers with multi roles and more weapon types. At least 2 Weapon types.

Regarding performance it's supposed start out awful and get better later on with optimizations and LOD.
