Refineries are a thing, you know
So the thing about the TEC is that they have insane economic capabilities, so much so that once they get their economy rolling along, they have an absurd ability to just rebuild all their losses in mins.
What u saw was challenging enough on Normal, but on Hard its absolutely insane. You'll delete a 1000+ supply fleet and then not 10 mins later you'll see another 1000+ supply fleet coming back at u. And not a shitty one too, but a well rounded one with combat, assault and support ships aplenty.
Absolutely terrifying.
The gauss frigates are a great addition, make it that much easier to take out capital ships without missiles that can be shot down.
i just saw someone play the TEC and they get system defense fleets that arent beholden to the main supply so yeah they can have like 10x the ships of everyone else
@@ztheo2280 yup u can max 500 supply point per planet. my new tactic is to block check point with this fleet. freeing my main fleet to do carnage, you can also use them to attack to nearest enemy, imagine 1500 point free fleet attacking your enemy
YO,Why did Pravus change his channel icon?What was wrong with the P?
You know a game is good when a reviewer plays 8 hours for one video.
Actually that is the in game time counter, which means when he speeds up the game, which he did at least x3 most of the video every minute is actually only 20 seconds, so the game lasted at least 3-4 hours, it was not 8. I love the game myself though :D
its their robotics cruisers, its ability heals ship and they had quite a few of them
i loved playing the first one on a setting I could casually beat while just watching big fleet battles
one thing i thought i noticed especially on the titan is that he wasnt equipping it with any of the extra lif and damage modules, prolly why it went down so quickly
I remember in the first SOSE you can move your capital planet to a new location additional the advent where never a race that excellent in offensive warfare i belive their merit was in mass spread in culture and defensive warfare with the orbital hangars and powerful orbital defensive lasers forcing the other factions to lose their frontier planets and dealing massive loses in their home terf and in my opinion are best used for the long game the TEC however are brilliant in offensive warfare and their support ships where OP i see most likely that was carried on in SOSE 2 as well whats ridiculous is that some support ships from TEC abilities can stack in this second game if i saw correctly.
As I understand it the ability to move your capital is disabled when the "Destroy home planet" victory condition is enabled. Only way around this is the Vasari who can make a Cap-ship/Titan their home planet through a tech.
It took me a while to realize what was going on with your opponent's ships' armour bars going _up_ while under fire.
It's a specific ship that the opposing AI put into their fleet.
The TEC has a specific class of Cruiser that works as a healer.
There must have been a bunch of them in the TEC fleets where you saw that happening.
Hoshikas are always my top priority for mind control in sins 1.
I really really want a total conversation mod for not only Star Trek, Star Wars, but also star citizen!! Would be dope at hell!!
the first sins have them, also battlestar galatica, with time I hope all of them return
The game is actually pretty damn awesome, which honestly is becoming a rarity. The visuals are very pleasing and the added depth with exotic minerals, the tech tree and so on is just amazing.
Really love the TEC and their cigare shaped capitals with the big autocannon dakka.
29:19 Refineries?
Hope they make a story campaign
not really something sose does, could be fun but i wouldnt expect it
@@outland2874 Premium Edition states a "full single-player story driven campaign".
DLC one has been announced!
They're planning it for DLC. They wanted to focus on the engine, gameplay, and balance first and then build a campaign of a thoroughly user-tested base game. Fine by me!
They are, premium edition announced a story campaign called 'times of war'
I used to play the original Sins of a Solar Empire. Cool, bringing back memories, but the game looks very samey to the original. You did briefly touch on the hidden strength of the Unity, which is being able to capture intact enemy frigates and exceed your fleet cap (and by a lot, if you're clever), making that my favorite faction to play as. In the original game TEC had repair frigates, and a fleet with enough of those would make their capital ships almost impossible to destroy. I'm guessing something like that was going on while you were fighting cyan.
Oh. Advent does still have the permanent mind control. 6000 pt, fleet here I come.
Love the smell of chaos in the morning
if i remember correctly, the titans are either a one-v-many, or many-v-many for the Advents.
"These Normal AI are insane!"...Its Medium AI. An Im sure the AI get a boost as well to provide that challenge as you go up in the difficulty. I know the regular game had that.
Looks very nice. But I wonder if this is actually an improvement on the original game, or just more of the same?
It’s both, very much the same feel but a ton of improved mechanics
200hr multiplayer here. A lot of defining yet subtle gameplay improvements: all projectile and dmg are simulated, and missiles are interceptable and blockable. This added a lot of depth to multiplayer. Planet and ship items make a huge difference in strategizing unlike the previous generic upgrades. Orbiting phase lanes disincentivized the previous trench warfare and make run by harassment viable. Even more asymmetric race mechanics
Mostly the same from what I've seen, its Sins 1 with all the bells and whistles already. Plus, we're supposedly getting a campaign and a fourth faction down the road.
It's both. Which is what we wanted.
It retains enough of the essence of the previous game so anyone familiar with Rebellion will feel right at home, but at the same time there's enough changes that you're going to have to adapt to all the new features to get the most out of the game, which is helped along by all the quality-of-life additions that make the game less tedious to play.
Hey pravus i know you might never see this but can you play hundred days again but as a series. I wanted to know more of your wine expertise while also watch you run your own winery, in game
The massive drop on Cyan is just oof, bumrushing an instant colonizing ship is broken man. Somehow the devs are gonna nerf by either making it a chance based thing or making the cast time long
Honestly making the cast time long seems like a really fair nerf for what you can accomplish with it. Loosing the game because someone just ran past all your defenses and activated an ability is just bad design
@@greenlockus2903 Every faction unlocks phase inhibitors long before titans come online.
@@ryanrasey7589 however the recall ability can to some extent circumnavigate this issue though
I wonder if the starbase planet invulnerablilty ability prevents it?
If you saw it coming and couldn't intercept or stop it, you could just change your capital to buy you time and retaliate. I'm sure each faction is broken in some way. Having really powerful unique abilities is important.
Had to double check did I accidentally clicked Quills video at the beginning.
but where are the steam achievements!!!???
Nice game showcase.
Somebody has a sense of humor in naming the desert planet as Varuna, who is the god of oceans in Hindu mythology😂
To me it seems the auto meteor system for advent fortresses is not working. It deals the damages when manually used but if auto it does not seem to do anything and go on CD
whats the differences between the original and the new one?
Bought it on Epic ages ago and the Devs give you a key for it on steam for free! Good move
Is that site up yet?
@@omni_0101 yeah dude, instructions are on the sins discord
This dude needs to sell "French toast sticks" for Burger King! Can you sound any more worse than am 80's commerciall
Chance for an all player skirmish video???
My dream match up is still the covanent from halo vs a full powered advent. I thibk the psionics and telepathic communications of the unity woilf govebthem a leg up despite what i feel is a similar tec level
when you play it 3 weeks your done their isnt enough vara. in it
One thing to say waghhhhhhhhhh
Day 110 asking Pravus to please play Eu4 Anbennar!
i dont get, why they present the game on steam like it would a completely different game. why do i need to go on youtube to see actual gameplay? lol
And thats how you don't do a paid promotion for a game.
1.1k like th... :P
Came expecting cinematic battles in space, left with images of pixels swarming around some icons. There is almost no 3-dimensionality or scale to ship battles. And zero sense of speed.
He's playing at a high speed mostly zoomed out. Ships (especially the smaller corvettes) tend to reposition actively to put as many guns on target even in 3D. Pravus wasn't zooming in all that much so it's harder to see.
You have those if you just zoom in.
me too, did nothing to sell the game to me in anyway and i wish i hadnt watched the video at all.
Ya you can zoom in to make things very cinematic... You can even slow time.
Lol sounds like stellaris super excited
So you played an 8 hour game and didn't show any of the good parts in this video on how you came back and not a single big fight slowed down? You actually made me not want to buy this game. I did not like the video. 4 thumbs down!
Vid was good until you skipped to the end, please try to not do that, very anti-climactic
Just a blob of ships, looks exactly like Sins 1.
Like as if sequels try to improve on but not fully change what players like? Go play COD... oh wait same problem.
@@30kk What improvements are there?
They took away a Capital and a frigate from each of the races. No mines, Diplomacy an after thought, AI art, etc...
Wait 6 months for a $20 buy.
Dude has obviously never played MP or skirmished against cruel or vicious AIs.
@@WooBino.Mines were w/e, the Rebellion Cap Ships were not well balanced and didn't fit with the test of the roster in a way that expanded the game tactically and if you're playing this game for the diplomacy element, you're playing the wrong game. It's meant to be ancillary but does have its uses.
All of the things OG Sins players wanted improved on are here.
I want nuanced combat, not "FUN"-mechanics like psychsomething to mind controle a world...that breaks my immersion...I am out
It's not a bad game, but it is pretty boring to me. I remember pirating the first SINS on my first job's computer, they were like 20 .rar files and my internet at home was too slow. I don't really feel the RTS nor the 4X aspects in this game. The RTS part SINS offers is just fleet A vs fleet B, no micro needed, similar to Stellaris where the biggest blob with the best stats wins, it's all about positioning in the right "system" but in a pretty basic manner. As for the 4X aspect it's just advancing and discovering more star-lines along the way (diplomacy and research are gimmicky), spamming a few defenses here and there as in a "tower defense game" coming back and forth throughout the gameplay. It's really a barebones RTS and a barebones 4X... if you like really slow tower defense games you might like it. I think "Dune Spice Wars" is way more a RTS/4X hybrid than SINS, but it's not "in space" (YKWIM).
I repeat, it's not a bad game but how do I say it? It's not deep enough to justify the slowness. I was expecting to see some changes in this new version, especially regarding the deepness of the RTS aspect, but it seems like it's the same core with only a few additions, being the constantly moving starlines the only significant one. Whoever enjoyed the first one will enjoy this one too.
It's not really, though. It's mostly just a large fleet battle simulator that plays like Stellaris without the dumb influence system.
glad I refunded.... seems super boring
this game is a remastered of its previous title , it shouldnt be called sins of empire 2 .... there are no new units or race even... and the graphics isnt even up to todays standard despite using new engine ..
Note :i have played the original game for hundreds of hours so i am well aware of this game and the units ..
That’s unfortunate. I’ve never played the first one, so I probably wouldn’t notice the difference, but darn, sucks for longtime players
To say there no difference is pretty stupid claim when the obvious change to any real fans of sins is that the Kol Battleship is more symmetrical than the original which wasnt. Since its only been 5 years (game timeline lore) I wouldn't expect there to be much change to designs of the original empires, but I'm guessing they will be releasing a 4th new species faction.
Also they made tons of new changes and added new mechanics to the game, the originals didn't have so just because you were expecting there to be this massive change in art style or ship design, doesn't make what was released bad.
It' sounds as if you wanted the 343 halo 4 treatment, where the Spartan armor design and style changed and many fans hated it.
I'm just glad a new sins game is out with far better graphics so we can see better graphic mods in the next 20 or so years.
@@Torente32 u clearly dont understand why i am complaining, instead of naming their game sines of solar empire 2, they should have named it a remastered version ...because thats it actually is, a better graphics compared to the original and some quality life changes...
whenever you mention a second installment of a series, you expect big changes, new designs, new factions ... the planet rotation is simply a gimmick, which in theory should be fun as it allows some type of space ambush to a less protected planet which in turn cuts off supply line, but unless they give you a decent defense buildings which are able to hold invasion long enough until your fleets gets, it totally pain in the ass and isnt a welcomed feature by many
By this logic Halo 2 and Halo 3 are a remaster of Combat evolved. It's minor improvements in every way and an engine that runs smooth as butter. I.e. exactly what 99% of players want from a sequel.
Am not a sheep like 99%of people you are claiming to be part of, when I see a sequel, I demand innovation, otherwise it's not a sexual worth buying rather it's simply shows a lazy ass devs who are more interested to make money than to bring innovation to their game title.
I don't support such companies and never will. If you as a company don't show me you worked your ass off to give me a quality sequel then you don't deserve my hard earned money..
Look at space marine 2 , there is massive difference in graphics, art style, weapons, guns, world.... Now that's a sequel I back it with whole heartedly!
Another example, AOE2DE was amazing game, despite their sequals brining a massive change, they dropped the ball on their games especially the long awaited AOE4 despite having fresh ideas like having soldiers on the walls, heroes having unique abilities etc, their chosen art style was a massive problem for me, as it targeted the kids in this generation, and removed all the gore from a battle game...
yet another game with BS build ability.
this game is garbage and boring.
So it's the exact same game with a slight reskin and minor tech tree changes. Skip it and play the first one.
Always some crybaby contrarians
Yeah. We'll just ignore the 'under-the-hood' engine upgrades compared to a 16 year old game. lol
Yeah, go play the first one that is the same price as this one right now, and your FPS will grind to a halt 40minutes in. Smart.
Missiles are actually simulated now, planets orbit and warp lanes change over time, faction abilities, damage and hitpoints update in real-time now, powerful map editor, balance improvements, the sheer amount of UI improvements ... Come on, man.
Multithread + 64bit engine alone is worth the price. Now the game can actually use your modern hardware.
combat looks liek shit you cna't see anything ahppening
