Brought to you by the folks behind the Space Sector website. Don’t know what this game brings that is new or interesting to the table, but it seems their hearts are in the right place. Hope it is successful.
Hey Brian you Played Celestial Command?
I’ve attempted and failed to play Celestial Command.
Have any of you tried Stellar Tactics recently? Just wondered how it’s progressing.
I tried it a few months back after a big update that added it’s universe, and my god is it coming along wonderfully.
Thanks Brian, have you done any interviews with the developers of this? Also, any idea what the timeline is to come out of EA?
Not yet, but it’s a great idea.
The absolute best space 4X I’ve found since MOO/MOO2 is Sword of the Stars with all DLC. The basic game is a bit threadbare but the DLC make it into almost a different game. Best fun I’ve had with a 4X game in years. Too bad SOTS2 crashed and burned :(
Sword of the Stars really is one of the best, no question.

I somehow didn’t have this in my Steam library, and I saw the complete collection was $2.49, so bam, in it goes. Are there any must-have mods or do you just play vanilla?
My favorite space 4X to this day, though I’m still stupefied by the mess they made of 2.
I tried it a few weeks ago, it was a bit buggy and it got stuck in some of the first few intro combats. I shelved it until it gets patched a bit.
As … um … someone who has played the game “a bit”…
…I’ll weigh in and say no mods are must-have, but some can be fun to dabble with. However, I highly recommend tracking down collections of custom maps.
Amazing game wiki (by Rorschach)
Super useful tech map with % chance to learn (note - the techs used to link to the wiki, but the links got broken after the wiki moved)

Is Space Siege available anywhere digitally? I remember it being on my Steam wishlist then disappearing.
Thank goodness no…er…I mean…sadly not…
Links?
These are great, thanks.
Reinstalling now, you fuckers.

Bah. Ex-friends.

I find it really hard to get into 4x space games. They all just seem too similar and too similar to any other 4x game. Are there any with realistic gravity and near-future tech? Without FTL? Nascent terraforming and national rather than planetary economies? Speed and Kessler and g’s and radiation? Vacuum and impulse burns? A solar system rather than galactic scale?
