Re: Day 1 of my Horizon Experience

Game is very solid in terms of performance, especially for an alpha. It seems to run a little slowly at times (not in processing just kinda in general as you're moving about the galactic map), but I think that's because I set it to run with the integrated chip and not the video card. I agree that th...

Re: Basic questions for this new 4x

Yeah, the whole board the probe mission is not handled terribly well in the tutorial. Essentially what you need to do is hammer away on one side of the probe until its shields drop. It took me a two galactic map turns of 20 round tactical map combat to figure that out. Once you do that, you'll progr...

Re: Horizon to be available on Steam Early Access Games

Just spotted this on Steam (not able to purchase until 3 July unfortunately) and am very much looking forward to it. I do find it a little concerning that there still isn't a gameplay video up yet though, are there any plans to release one before it can be purchased?

Re: Woot for the publishing deal and release date!!

I tend to check weekly and usually find very little in the way of posts from the people on the boards but this relative explosion in traffic to the site is great to see!

Re: Race Names

And Kuntari now have the ambiguity in race description: how could coexist Emperor and republic? Although it does read a little oddly my understanding of it is that the governing body of the republic is made up of a number of lords and this emperor fellow who it implies is head of government. You co...

Re: Race Names

I can honestly say that I never noticed that, though that could be because when I read the race names I include the following word. In other words, the Barbeck Council is rather more different to the Barsig Conglomerate than it would be if it was just Barbeck and Barsig. It's probably no harm to cha...

Re: Any news would be good news

Looks very promising indeed. Good space strategy games are hard to find, ones I haven't played to death even harder! Very much looking forward to Horizon's long-awaited release.
