Is it just me or are the official MoO3 forum filled with MoO3 Apologists?

Reading some their rationalizations for why the game is fixed at 800x600 was mind numbing.

Some poor guy was slammed because he said he was returning the game because he couldnt change the resolution!

Oh why did MoO3 have to be crapware , and Atari owns the Total Annihilation licence

Moo3 sucks monky balls!

I fucking hate it. Unplayable bloatware with crapdesign and inpossible gui!

Burn the crap

And they still have not released a patch for their fucktup AI and stuff...

Just checked

June 6, 2003: The Official BETA (final to follow) Quicksilver/Atari code release patch for Master of Orion 3.

Damn beta patch ain't comming close to my system

It's packed with delusional people who have tricked themselves into thinking they didnt waste some 4-5 years waiting for this piece of crap.

Luckily, Galactic Civilizations is far superior. Go to www.galciv.com and see how those fellas support the living fuck out of their game. There's already been several updates that are mostly gameplay tweaks/adjustments, and they've committed themselves to a full year's worth of free expansion packs, with the first coming out in August.

Not to mention that the game has far more personality, is far more intuitive, and a lot less boring than MOO3.

get the beta patch, makes the game enjoyable

No that moves it from unplayable to barely playable.

It still does not migrate the deep design issues the game has.

MoO3 blows big time, THE most dissapointing sequel ever.

Did you see the Pokemon Random Event?

Sure...if you want to watch wee dots shoot flashing beams at each other when you do actually make it into some kind of combat...this is the game for you!

Otherwise...prepare to be bored out your mind..

IF I want to seedots blasting each other I`d play Imperium Galactica 2 and use fighters

It's in the release version? Because I've seen the user made ones, some of em are just stupid- though I do have to look harder to download the good looking ones: I liked the sunken Star Destroyer.

The bab 5 mod I saw looked pretty good...'course...you'd never get to see the ships up close...more funky dots..

gwt the high rez mod, it opens up a way larger ship views, you can actully spot differnt fighters

It's either in the release version or in one of the patches. You'll know it when you see it.

There's also the many cracks at Microsoft and the praises of IBM

I was actually dumb enough to get this game on realease day.

And I'm still slapping myself for it *slap, slap...*
