Hey, where are these links to a fantastic array of 3rd party contributions on the site?

Atrocities · #3 September 25th, 2006, 11:20 PM

I was promised a fantastic array of 3rd-party contributions, but I don't see them. Where are they. DO you see them?

Wade · #4 September 25th, 2006, 11:30 PM

No. Sorry. I do not see them either...I was just quoting. Perhaps in time.

(Such sarcasm...I know that considering change is difficult but it can open new possibilities.)

Fyron · #5 September 26th, 2006, 12:18 AM

Sarcasm? Eh? I was using their wording precisely. Maybe I should have added quote marks?

-----There is new SEV concept art posted on 9-29-06 in the "image galleries" at www.spaceempires5.com.

Some of them include wallpaper that shows 14 race portraits and ships. The portraits are detailed and provoke imagination.
Particularly interesting to me at the moment are the Xi Chung, Ukra-Tal, and the Drushocka.

I am very unimpressed with this new Space Empires Universe. I created a new account, logged in no problems and checked things out.

The next time I came back, my user name was no longer recognized. Like it never existed. I've sent emails to those who deal with the site and no one has bothered getting back to me and it's been close to 2 weeks now.

Not impressed. I'll stick with Shrapnel and SE.net, thanks. At least I know these guys are interested in the fans.

Some thing similiar happened to me but it was my password that did not work. I had a new one e-mailed to me then changed it back to my original password. It seems that the site is a work in progress, similiar to the SEV demo/game.

And the server is quite slow, much slower than the one here.
May be Wade we better not shut down this place here, what do you think?

Bearclaw - early on there was a site crash that erased a day's worth of posts/registrations. You probably just need to re-register.
