So, if you have problem with the forum, don't complain here

I don't think anyone is complaining as in demanding Bara get's it fixed right away, but to say don't bring it up here is stupid in my opinion.  Someone bringing it up let's others know about a problem.  I didn't know it wasn't working for me until after I read it and tried.  Now I know I have a problem and am interested in a solution or work around.  Others have confirmed issues because of the original comment about it, and you've provided reasons for it happening.  None of which would have happened if someone didn't 'complain' about it here.

unless you can reproduce the problem with any browser

Not to nitpick, but I only run one browser.  Pale moon.  I'm not downloading opera or chrome or bothering to go through the slew of updates to bring IE up to speed just to test a little forum issue to see if it's cross platform or just mine.  Nor would I expect or demand anyone else maintain 4 web browsers just to check to see if an issue affects one or two or all of them.  It can be done simply by coming onto the forum and saying, I have this browser and this is not working.  Basically complaining about it, and seeing who else has the problem.  If it's only those of us with firefox browsers or if someone running IE says theirs doesn't work either, or someone running opera... I get the same results , the same knowledge, without the trouble of doing all of the leg work.  Add in to that the very real possibility that someone has already found a solution to it, but assumes they were the only one with the issue and won't volunteer the info just because.  Also the possibility that Bara or someone else may not know the problem even exists because no one has said anything, but does know a way to work around it to implement server side rather then making all of us deal with it client side and will do exactly that in the next update.  Also something to consider, it worked before.  Knowing that, I would tend to believe it's not necessarily the browser, but rather the way the forum works.

complain to the dev who have create your browser...

I'm just one of the masses who uses the browser I use, my complaint to them about something not working right here in this forum isn't worth the electricity used to transmit said complaint.  Not unless I rally the troops and get a few thousand support tickets filed.

 

 

At any rate, the best place to complain about a forum issue is at the forum where the issue is happening, and no one should ever be told to not complain.  Bitching and whining about something, absolutely, I've got your back on that one, that person just needs to chill the hell out and settle down, but a simple complaint...  Come on...

stant, thank you for the support, and yes I have exactly the same potential here as with firefox developers( ie NONE), and as I only use firefox on this set of sites as each browser that is installed is used ONLY for one type of task(firefox is my gaming browser, opera is my daily downloads browser, chrome is my entertainment browser, dragon is my casual(default) browser, and interterd exploder is ONLY for windows update site and nowhere else permitted) and I do not like to use a browser for different things as they keep forgetting what I want them to goto, and I then have to re-setup all the pages for the browser, and with each of the specialised browsers having between 15 and fifty tabs each, the re-setting up is very frustrating and irritating.

Wow, that's a lot of tabs, anyway, it's the forum, Chrome and Safari show the same problem. Personally, I use either Chrome and Safari, however, the last update for Safari has a weird add on that was not there before, it comes up webkit2webprocess.exe something another and uses the hell of my 2 gig memory on my netbook. So I've been using Chrome exclusively...

Heard of Pale moon, any good.

The divide created in the Vasari Empire is less pronounced, but just as severe to their people. With the Vasari now practically frantic to move on to new space, the loyalist faction abandons cooperation and decides to take the resources they need by any means necessary. Having accepted the need to work together, the rebel faction feels that their best chance for survival is to work with the other races and bring them along to flee the approaching enemy.

Pale moon is firefox without the cross OS stuff built in so that it's optimized to run with windows much better.  Also has had a 64bit version out for a long time.

I just trashed Pale Moon after it's session restore failed and it refused to open links in new tabs.

Haven't experienced that.

kitkun, I had firefox 6.01 do the same to me, and it is bloody frustrating, along with the useless page that tells me my browser is up to date, AND IS NOT IN my homepage list.

and the dragon is comodo's dragon, which they claim is a secured chrome browser with their branding and dns servers.

Well Pale moon is Firefox without :

- Crash reporter

- Parental control

- ActiveX and ActiveX scripting

- Accessibility features

and recompiled using SSE2 instruction set for improve the speed... mean that Pale Moon binary need a Intel processor newer that 2001 or a AMD processor newer that 2003

how about some concept arts/ models for the ships in rebellion? im especially keen to see how the rebel/loyalist theme plays out, and the updated looks of everything...

Well considering they've shown us concepts of what looks like two TEC titans, that's both your art and (likely) your rebel/loyalist theme. I doubt the existing ships will look too very different than they do now (save perhaps the particle effects), but yes I think we all would love some details on the rebel/loyalist relations (mechanics wise, though we finally know a little about the lore).

These requirements make me sad, very sad, I have no money to buy a new computer, and my current one is a quad core processor, 3GB of ram, windows xp (not sure about the bit) I only have 7GB of memory storage left, my video card is only 8600 nvidia, man! my computer wont be able to do this game, well, I'm stuck with entrenchment.

Actually you should. Just not at top end.

One thing about IronClad is that they have worked and re-worked the .exe and game to run better on lower end machines over and over again. Don't worry bud.

Should run well enough, though it sounds like you could probably do with more RAM and HD space in general. Just don't crank up the additional graphics to max or play on super huge maps.  With a quad-core, I think you'd get better speed out of Windows 7 at this point anyway if that's affordable for you.
