i am sorry but everytime i get into a discussion with someone more than 4 posts long kryo or someone thinks i am fighting sorry i can not continue this discussion

sorry i was being the devils advocate with the first post
The red floating globes over ships which appear after a research field - they look ridiculous , please consider removing them the red globes are showing which ships have the target inhence given by the support cruiser
how about tech for all jump lanes in and out of system and then you have to build gates in both grav. wells for it to be put in place
As for your laser weapon/engine, how are you going to supply the power and get rid of the heat on your space ship (using modern or near future techs)? Once you've figured it out, patent your tech and sell it to NASA. You'll be rich it isn't my engine it is nasas as for volenteers the only army that is completely or nearly completely volenteers is the american army Also, a crew that knows they are about
but going around on a soapbox just doesnt work. would you like some water to go with that soapbox
if a game was based on bsg in it's current or the origanal config. it would have to be a video game becouse all they do is run from fuel spot to fuel spot and kill cylons if however you allowed them to build more ships then it would make for a good game
Secondly, most battles would occur at crazy long ranges. Offense would be with missile attacks. Now, there are different types of present day warheads we could use, such as nuclear, shrapnel or powerful X Ray Laser Beams (powered by nuclear warheads). So, particle beams are out since it is impossible to keep same charged particles together over a long distance, there is also a bad effect on your ships total hull charge, and finally the beam would require huge
so you think you can teach/tell your commanders that ramming is a great tactic to use, and the there won't be leaks to the media or civilians about it? Do you think other enlisted men won't hear about it? Do you think the surviving ship crews won't say anything about what they see happen during battles? While in battle, do you think when you radio a ship to ram a target, your other ships won't hear your transmission? Do you think other empires won't report these interc
this is my observation and you probable already know it but at normal ai if you have 5 players no aggresion. 6 players too much aggresion
so far i have not needed to build ship yards except at the home system
as far as docking before a jump it wouldn't do to have the fighters/bombers in one system and the cruiser in another and i have had that happen
Everyone has a right to their opinion. I need to fill my posts with more smiley faces. People are taking me too seriously. And they are wrong in thinking that... wrong, wrong, wrong why
yea well i can't even get enough chyrstals to build that many ships that fast
so the last three games i have started i end up with 10 frigates 1 flagship 1 or 2 grav wells and then i get attacked by an ai with a flagship 20 frigates don't know how many grav wells oh and the planet attack frigates are usually 1 or 2 jumps behind the game was normal ai 6 players
If I don't agree with your opinions, then your wrong and should change yours to fit my directive. why
i will make it simple in this game if i enter the united states at new york i can 3 secounds later leave the united states via san fransisco which means all of the troops that are trying to stop me from travaling through the country are just a waste of money if we want to use stargates then we need to traval between stargates to get to the next jump lane other wise allow free movement
i am the one who said that the ships should go through the grav. well and i still say it
remember voyager took 5? years to get to jupiter new horizen did it in in less than a year
I agree, I think ships should be able to move from the gravity area, without FTL and it should take so long to get there that this travel method is rarely used if ever, though I think it should be possible. So the question here is, if it will be a form of travel that is never used, should the devs take the time to implement it just to make it feel more "realistic"? today a round trip to mars will take 2 years 6 months there 1 year wait time for eart
i only count two ff
science fiction usually becomes real there is no way to travel FTL. yet
aw man...You have any idea how long that takes? 2 or 3 days if you dont do anything else but in this case you only need to read exidus
if you right click on any ship the ship you have highlighted will begin to escort but will not protect said ship yet unless they fixed it in this last beta
for me it is all the stars are on the same plain and i think that all stars should have jump points between all stars
