WoodMan -> RE: Status of criticisms on Three Moves Ahead Podcast? (6/4/2010 10:16:31 PM)

I haven't heard the podcast. I'm a new player, had the game less than a week. If you can look past the screenshots which in my opinion sort of make the game look ugly, even though it's not when you get it running, (graphics aren't great, but they are good enough that they don't detract from the game at all) and set some time aside to get into the game it's a really good experience.
I have had 2 crashes, but each time the Save Game option was still available after the crash oddly, so I have not ever lost any of my game time, apart from that I haven't noticed any major bugs (or minor ones actually [:D]), but I don't read other peoples bug reports for games because if I do I might notice them!
I highly recommend this game and to be honest I think because it doesn't have stunning 3D visuals or brilliant sound and generally is like something out of the early to mid 90s it might not get raving reviews, but thats the reason I don't read reviews anymore and just go on forums instead, you will notice this is generally a very positive forum, thats because its generally a very good game! Try it.
Sidenote: the developers actually listen and communicate with the community, which is one of the most important things to me and most game developers don't do it [:-]
The fuel and escort issues, I think fuel issues were mainly fixed in a patch (e.g. colony ship won't go home to refuel it will just go to planet and colonize now). Escorts still need a bit of work, for example if you escort a construction ship when the ship finishes what its building the escort ends too and you have to re-assign it, a bit annoying, but I think might be fixed in future... hopefully [8D]
