3rd time ive tried support, no luck. If any developers see this maybe i can send my error report directly to them....

also im wondering if i should just get Domination or subscribe to MAN2 as it seems MAN2 still has a lot of bugs, any suggestions?

If you don't mind having Starforce invade your computer, spend $40 on Domination...
However, I can only imagine that if you eventually get all your ducks in a row, MAN2 would be the much better investment for all reasons.
I was very stricken by the news of Starforce in Domination. It has been a good feeling to replace my harddrive, which hopefully won't be invaded again...I'm selling Dom.w/a warning on the box. I'm not really sure if dvd-ripping is that essential; it's almost impossible anyway.Apparently DOM. provides single-player action, which I've never been interested in, and the ones I tried to play didn't work! After playing a few turns, the game just went kablooey! However I could always play Online.
MAN2 is lots fun, and looks like there will be many players...
In the past, during MAN1 play, I always received prompt support.
Hopefully, that kind of experience will be repeated.
I have recommended that support make at least a general comment, rather than ignore everyone.
ANybody can understand that they might be very busy...and if so, it is better just to let it be known....
I only wish them the best, and only inadvertantly have come off sounding mean and combative....I will try to post more soberly.
