Now that my excitment has dropped to a more civilised level after a quick game with the loyalists, i'd like to share a few bugs i encountered :-).

*Strip to the core is an amazing ability but the sound when it happens is really really loud. It even shoo'd my neighbour at my door xD.

*Asteroid belts that were created through strip to the core remain in the empire tree. After i devoured all their ressources, i'm understandably not terrible interested in monitoring them further.

*While the loyalist titan looks amazing, it's fins once again reveal the poor pathfinding.
I could destroy 5 capital ships with ease because they constantly bumped into the fins during retreat and got stuck there.
And one time when i wanted to bombard a planet i managed to bolt the titan between two ressource extractors and it needed ages two free itself.

Well, enough boy-scouting, the rebels await :-D....

You must down some graphics setting. I set structures to High to resolve this problem on my G74SX 1600x900. Is for the hardware limitation.

I'm loving the Vasari interface skin, very nice touch!!

Will have to check what's been done for the other races now :-)

Sorry for being late but i was busy fapping to this news the whole time. \o/

Interesting bug that I found when I had a pirate base spawn just off a star with no other connections.  I was playing Vasari Rebels and had four perfectly functional starbases around the star and decided to pull in a starbase from a nearby planet to tank out the pirate base.  Here's a crude diagram

S - star

P - pirate base

O - Nearby planets

 

O---S---O

......|

......|

......P

 

So anyways I took the base from one of those other planet to the star and that's where all my problems started.  Three of the four star bases that were already in the star's gravity well went inactive and then the arriving star base went inactive too.  Even after the offending base left for its mission against the pirates, the three bases remained inactive.  To make things worse scuttling and then rebuilding the starbases around the star didn't fix the problem.  While this is obviously an easy bug to avoid (I only discovered it due to the arrangement of the planets and accident on top) it still creates problems since the issue appears to be permanent.

really? ive had it crash a couple times, but otherwise i can run it smooth as silk all maxed out and i have a core 2 duo e8400, 4 gb ddr2, 300 gb velociraptor, 1 tb seagate barracuda (which steam is installed on), and a gtx 285...

 

sidenote im noticing that occasionally my vasari loyalist titan's shields will not recharge fully and get stuck at a random number, whether in a friendly/neutral/enemy grav well. not sure if it happens with cap ships, as im just using my lvl 9 vorastra as a planet buster  XD
