Used to SE IV, disappointed with SE V (so far)

Submitted by MartinG on Wed, 2007-02-21 17:35. Space Empires V General

I've played a lot of SE IV, I just got SE V, but I'm pretty disappointed.

I really don't like the restrictions of the options you have compared to SE IV. In the older game I appreciated the option at setup to choose which technologies can be used in the game and which ones don't.

I don't think that I'm going to play SE V until this option is added in a future update.

That's a shame the game is really pretty deep. Understanably it could have been better, but it is eventually getting there.

Hmm, well you seem a bit shortsighted to me... Might be a good idea to look a little deeper. Anything and everything you could do in SEIV can be done in SEV... maybe just not the same way.

The fields used to allow tech areas in techareas.txt to be banned exist, but otherwise it hasn't been implemented in SE:V.

Maybe I can do something by modding techareas.txt. Thanks for the tip! Smiling
