Just got this game on steam, and I can join a game but when that planet loads about halfway through the tree populating *BOOM* black screen. I mean it KILLS my computer. If I hold down CTRL+ALT+DELETE for a while I can recover, but other than that just black screen and music. edit: Also Galactic war mode, I started a new war, could find some tech but as soon as it came to fight, it didn't even try to load, just said returning to menu and back to the star chart view, couldn't move or do anything after that. edit 2: I set all settings to low and was able to play one game of galactic war, when moving to start a new game it did the same thing as before, just a message saying returning to menu. If I quit and restart, then I can play again, so basically one game per restart on lowest settings I have a NVidia QuadroFX 4000 2gb core i7 930 8gb ram win 7 I know this is gamma but geez it's pretty much useless. I'm guessing this isn't a bug you can just read my description and say, "oh, I know" and have it fixed.
