I usually have 2 fleets,one for offence and one for defence.

i usually hv 2 fleet for atk, both fleet go different way, sometimes one of the fleet defend at the intersection.

But damn against com last night, they have a full fleet cap armada against mine, but com turned away, and so I continued to take its plannets.

BTW anyone found out that this game only takes up to 1.5 gigs of ram and it starts to lag even though you have 2 gigs.

Yeah...you do need a really high end CPU if you are going to max out the fleet and play wih many AI. Textures are actually handled by the CPU(second core of a dual core)...so the higher the textures detail the more work the CPU has to do especially when there is a lot of ships. Lowering texture detail helps alleviating this quite a bit.

Try not to have any applications running in the background too.

Then what about the Graphic Card does it affect the texture? Why don't they make it such a way that graphics are handled by the GC.

That means many people wont be able to play the game with a decent frame rate. A lot more people dont have a decent graphic card than a CPU. Actually its quite smart. The graphic card draws the texture...and the second core loads textures and meshes.

Ok,thats something i dont know.

My CPU isnt that strong.Guess i have to lower my settings.

Sins lags a tiny bit in the demo.

Wow I think I need a new processor.

i use my laptop to ply also very lag, it takes about 1GB RAM only on my laptop even though my laptop hv 2 GB RAM, but on my desktop it use 1.5GB RAM

I still think i should upgrade my com back to XP.

Vista too laggy adi.

Mine also not very smooth ler, sometimes zoom in abit only also lag liao. When exiting the game after few hours play also lag quite some time.

Yup this games will into my next buying games. Not only 1 shop I find sold this games. Maybe next month buy this games after bored with Assassin;s Creed hehe

i use XP also, very lag lag lag.....

this is y when there's a war or lag, the empire trees kick in

zoom out and use the empire trees to help u

Anyone up for a game tonight?

YEah for my desktop also only 1.5 gig.

ohh you mean the planet trees?
I'll try to OC my com and see if it works.....

Me Me anyone else?

Hmm...I was hoping for a bit of Homeworld, but hmm...it'll do. There really ain't a story in there. The background music...alamak. I thought Ironclad has some of the Homeworld team, no?

I f ind myself playing this game from the zoomed out view almost the whole time
Meaning i don't see graphics.. only icons haha

How come ur doing that?

The music is so bad meh?

I find it pretty good compare to some other game's music.

Iron Clad do have some of the Barking Dog's staff.Not to forget some ex-Rockstar North staff.

Game music is good? Hmm..well compared to some lesser games, yes. But even C&C had great BGM. So does SC, WC and Homeworld had YES working on the BGM. I wonder if it's possible for the 1.1 or Expansion to have Daftpunk Haha~! Wishful thinking.

A week into the game and so far I've only use TEC. Very hard to get into the game when there's no Campaign that shows you the strength of each unit. Having to experiment means very slow learning rate...
