i think the problem is people are playing with a tickbox style approach. as in: first second third regardless of what the enemy is doing people used to spam LRF because they were hard to counter now, there is a unit that effectively devastates an LRF spam, and is exceptionally cheap to create. so (the 'immature') people are crying because their step by step guide to winning doesnt work anymore, instead of changing their tactics. like others have

two small glitches ive found: 1: when a frig factory or cap ship factory is destroyed while building something, the ship it was building is still visible after the structure is destroyed (this is without any of the extra mini mods enabled) 2: pirates tend to attack whomever they please. i had an asteroid 2 jumps away from a pirate base that had another phase lane to the local star. yet, the pirates attacked me instead of going the more direct route to the target with the most

what are you talking about? name 4 'deep' sci fi shows with the action, humour and satisfaction for watching that SG gives you. but seriously... what does 'deep' give you? hell, DEFINE deep in the first instance. honestly, who wants to watch a story about 'flawed heroes', which is just spin talk for "losers-who-have-the-producers-on-their-side". i see enough losers in real life, i dont want my entertainment to be about the same schmucks. honestly, all 4 team me

Well, it allows for a firefight to have the complexity of the chance of each individual unit surviving accounted for. Some crews may be more loyal, but others may be either cowardly enough or intelligent enough to flee from a hopeless battle, or at least hopeless for that individual unit to survive. In terms

[quote who="TwAgIssmuDe" reply="101" id="2427980"] Quoting Astax, reply 100 Also why would ancients put stargates on inhospitable planets? And ones with no life on them? Maybe because, hundreds of thousands of years have passed since those stargates were put on those planets. Climate change, asteroid/comet impacts, mass extinction and massive solarflares, just to name a few ways a planet can undergo dramatic changes so that life can't exist anymore

i have to say, though, at the end of the EP: Light, where the colonel thinks Rush knew the ship would be alright... so what? So if he did, he kicked 15 people plus supplies off the ship for a few hours, then helped get them back.... big whoop? Though i have to say, about the militarism, in this case, the military are good. they are simple, yes, but they generally want to save everyone. Whereas the scientists have proven multiple times that they think they know better and go of
