Hello all, first post here, gotta say I like hte choice of music and phrases for the opening, gj. Been playing the mod a bit but will hold comments on it for later other than overall, it is a great effort so far. <span style="font-fa

I think that this a really simple thing, most all RTS games ever have a Hero unit that is put with a player to sort of balance things out a bit, the Caps are Hero units.

- Ron The difference between killing fighters and performing their intended task are two different things. An anti-fighter battery today is easily capable of eliminating fighters without much hassle. The US has the ability to counter this with stealth fighters but this is not the case with this game. You have standard fighters en masse attacking massed flak frigates. Note that in WWII this was not good for kamakazie fighters. The whole point to a flak frigate is to annihilate fighter

In response to your fighter thing, theoretically fighters take out bomber/other fighters, and bombers are for ships. According to my findings though fighters do a bit my dmg and have less health and hte opposite is true of bombers, this could just a thing in which the fighters are firing anti-strike craft rounds and onyl really effective against other strike craft. At any rate, one thing of note do not let your opponent spam carriers. In this game thus far there is NO real counter to a carrie

Howdy, I would like to come out and state that the AA is for crap, I hope that this is just a beta bug but when a mixture of fighter/bomber squads numbering around forty from 7 carriers attacks that is a big thing. I was not detured since I had many front line warships to deal with said carriers and good anti-fighter defense... at least I thought I did. I had between 20 and 30 sentinals and at least a dozen fighter wings. I expected to lose a few but not the way I did, I didnt even

I have only read some of the things on here and to me the answer is simple, give an option for finite and infinite resources and isf so desired an advanced option for specifying which resource in particular will be finitie or infinite. While on the Resource note, I remember there being talk that each faction would rely more heavily on one resource then another. Has this changed? Take Care and God Bless, Lharrs

Howdy guy I too have problem with this, although I took many screens, I messed up somehow on the upload to imageshack, havent done it for so long I forgot what to do I guess. Anyhoo, I shall describe. In my case, whatever this is occur in three stages. The first occurs when I am at the high levels of zoom (ie I am zoomed out), the planets and stars appear grayed out (like you see when you first start the game and click a button to start). While I can still see everything, it is hard

A missle battery would be nice, the pros could/would be longe range, primarily anit-cap ship (its default auto-target), if directed to fire at frigs, fires an AoE missile. make it either 3-4 like the fighter hanger and balance accordingly. thus you have a missle battery and the guass is still a viable option. quikie on the minefield thing, four options there. make it a one time buy around the grav well; make it an upgrade for your orbitals either a one time all encompassing p

Didn't see a thing for a recorded games section, but I didn't look real hard either. Place recorded games here.

Thanks for the FB guys. For now I have three notes to make hope it helps. The first is that I totally forgot to state that my idea for the research would be to have it be in conjunction with the main lines. I prefered idea would be to allow simultaneous research of the main lines and Focus paths for your faction. The second is that I agree with the idea of stats boost points and the option to upgrade parts of the ship at reduced value ie upgrade all ascpets of the shi

While I would admit that my idea would take some doing, I do agree that something even simple would be better then nothing. I know that I would prefer to wait on the implementation of the idea as a whole for an expansion rather then have something simple. There are two reasons off the top of my head for why a "simple" system would not be successful ( that is not to say that it wouldn't work, it just would be that successful). The first is that this is a game professing to be a 4x ga

Oh also on quickie. System Defense Boats. Cheaper versions of their inter-solar bothers/sisters, they have no inter-solar or inter-stellar drives. Either they would be cheaper or they would be the same price but with added armor and or weapons. This would add an interesting twist. Any hoo, night for now. - Lharrs

LOL, I do tend to go a bit vague. Ok to Ron, I dont play EE all that much but I follow your logic been a long time since the first EE. Bliar, sorry for that I will try to do a bullet type thingy. Background for the idea. You Have the Main Races. Since the beta testers have the TEC, I will go with them. My start off point was that Altough the variety of ships are nice and the fact that the Captial Class of ships have upgraded abilities are nice, the games t

TY for hte reply mate. I wasn't trying to imply that there is no customization, but looking at it I think that is what I did. All I was getting at is that there I really notice (with all the extra time) that there really isnt much Diversity. For example, I will use todays navies/empires. The united states is the lone superpower in the world despite the rise of certain others; the US is still really the only one, for now. As a reasult they can afford the high cost of supporting Carriers, whi

Well, I have noticed that for me at least the game gets... "slow" in places and during those time I look at different things and I have come to the realization that the game needs a bit more depth in terms of Empires. When looking at the game you can see that it (atleast to this point) isn't very diverse when the same Empires fight. I see the same ships with the same attacks and all that. the only way to make your empire different is in what structures you build and all that means is that you

Welp, in response to the low amounts of Crystal I always have, I know that I play way ahead of the ai. I mean my fleet is always more advanced in ships, types and the like plus I have tons of planetary defenses and high research. In my last game before claiming victory (and by that I mean looking at all the other races and laughing at their fleets because i could wipe them) I had all of my systems upgraded to full with the fleet cap boost, civics stations boost, planetary boost, and the expidi

ty for the FB gents. Take Care and God Bless, Lharrs Thought that I would add the DX File thing if you guys need it, maybe it will help. Just let me know.

Hehe, indeed it is. those last pics there are only from camera turns and pans of the space around that one planet shown in the pics. Any time I zoom into that level, the game slow down to a crawl and the distorions happen. When I zoom out everything is hunky dory. Responses: To Ron Lunge - hmm, ok mate if you say so. I thought the little guns on the BB were Pd but guess not, anyoo I stock up on fighters anyway so points for me lol and planet seiges. To Shadowhal -

lol I have to do these individually 1) "/> 2) "/> 3) <img src="<a href="http://img294.imageshack

Welp, figurd it out. I am needing to use a little tiny code for a site and not forums since we are clearly not on forums or something. any hoo, First up is the pic of the closest zoom level I can get to before the hinkyness "/> next up are all the weirdo things, mind my comp can easily run

WOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOO! Party ova HERE!
