Stardock has sent word that the latest version of Sins of a Solar Empire Version 1.1 is available as an optional beta. The real-time strategy game will look and perform better than ever with the latest patch in place.
Sins v. 1.1 introduces a new multiplayer system called “Alloy” which eliminates the need for configuring routers or changing port numbers. Players will also find a new graphics engine update for an outstanding upgrade on visuals and new damage animations.
This huge patch is only available as a download through Stardock’s new digital distribution platform, Impulse. Check out the Sins of a Solar Empire website for the latest information.
I’ve always appreciated Stardock’s approach to copyright protection. There’s no DRM to deal with. If you own the game, you get the updates for free. If you enjoy RTS and space faring combat, this is definitely a game you should check out.
