They aren't going to make you pay for it in the Mini expansion. That has been stated outright. To change now would cause too much of an outcry. If they were going to release it this previous weekend, but had to test the sync error, I'm guessing next week sometime. Also, from what I understand, I don't think 1.096 is going to be all that different from 1.1. So download 1.096 right meow and check it out. The changes are phenomenal.

It is pretty slow right now, but every time I go on there are other people. Just be patient.

I've actually noticed an improvement in performance since updating to BETA. Right now they are just testing a sync error. They wanted to release the full 1.1 patch last weekend, but want to be sure that as many bugs as possible are eliminated before patching.

Ahh I see. Thank you.

[quote who="Samurye" reply="1" id="1926098"]Actually the second expansion will be non-millitary. (Diplomacy etc.) expansion three is supposed to add new ships and stuff. Samurye. [/quote] Where did you get the info about expansion 3?

Saturdays and Sundays are usually the only times I can manage to get on. I'll send you a PM next time.

Having different victory conditions could help this too. (ie. 75% of all occupiable gravity wells, wonder victories, timer victory, research victory, as mentioned capital victory).

Did you guys all miss the post on October 20, 2008 by Swiss? I quote, "we're not dead"- Swiss Knight, October 20, 2008 01:40:43 If you guys want this so bad, volunteer some of your time. Inspire some of your friends who can mod to help out, or learn to mod yourself!

Hello All, I'm starting this thread so if people are wondering if anyone is online they can check here. I'm on right now using beta. Come join!

YES! Great idea. "Target all of Player A's Trade ports" or even "500 credits/Trade port destroyed" That would give a very interesting aspect to pirates and your idea seems pretty easy to implement.

Head Fake!

Yup. I know about the orbital planetary shields. My idea would be a planet based shield generator that can't be destroyed like the orbital shield generator. The shield itself could be brought to 0 so that the planet could be conquered, but the actual wonder would not be destroyed until the planet health was brought to 0. Make sense?

Very helpful. Thanks my man! (or woman?) I noticed the advent carriers now cost quite a bit more. What was the increase to the TEC? And do you know what their pop supply cost is? Advent carriers were 20! Seems kinda high as I thought Tec Carriers before were only 6 or something... Off topic, what does Karma do and how does it work (strictly concerning these forums)

18 completely redone and touched up meshes. -Dozens completely redone and touched up mesh textures. Do you know what was redone? -Carrier frigates rebalanced to have 2-3 squadrons and be relatively less expensive per squadron. Which have 2 and which have 3? -All anti-strike craft frigates' base DPS reduced by 43%. I'm not sure if I'm reading this right. So anti-strike frigates do 43% less damage, but there will be more and larg

I came here to get a more detailed explanation of patch and all I got was 15 pages of an argument about digital distribution. Brutal! Can anyone provide a link that gives a bit more info on this patch? The bullet points are a good start, but I'm a little dumb on the technical side to know what it all means exactly. It's amazing how much support has gone into this game! Can't wait for Entrenchment.

Good Ideas XselenS! Would you want the moons to be a seperate grav well that you can only get to from it's planet? Or are you thinking the moon would be in the gravity well but perhaps creating a addon to the gravity well? (ie. one large sphere around the planet and the center of the moon being on the edge of the gravity well and then a smaller gravity well of the moon extending out) What I'd like to see in the second expansion is some alternative
