could be something flag ships get as an abillity: The cost is anit-matter and time... Red-Shirt Landing Party; Land on the planet 20% chance of finding... well something Improve the level of it can improve the probabillity...
perhaps if exploration guaranteed finding Something... just a probabillity of how good the something was.
perhaps exploration should be free and automatically begin upon colonization but take a very very long time.
I like this... another way you could do it is that if you have no cap ships then the next one you buy is at a distinct discount... IE 0-1 cap ship is half price... because no self serving government will go without one and it pressures the rich fat cat industries to pony up for a new one. WOuld only help an underdog and still wouldn't have much experience... if flagship status did something then it could have a little bit of a bonus... it will still be Really hard to come back, but it w
yeah just meet in ICO... I will be home by 5:30 Est, scarf down supper, and be on by 6Est well see who we have and we can divy teams up then...
ahh let the player reputations start... haha
100%
Thats generous of them... 1v1 but not 2v2 or more is clever.
one more and we are good for at least a 3v3 which is still awesome.
I think anyone has the right to try to the play the game however they want. I'll never be the guy to ask someone to drop cuz they are laggy, its just not cool. Its nice when they volunteer to do so for everyone's benefit, but bitching too much about lag and technical issues is mean at times.
1. He described this accurately, he doesn't want to hover over the planet to get the box info, thats his critique he wants names and a box. I like 8-10
Im in and will be there... thats perfect timing for me, I could do it today but I have suuuuuch a hang over
you could make it vary based on map size.
yeah that would be really sweet.
Yeah Im sure in the next beta or even patch the lobby will evolve and include those things as they are pretty standard lobby features. Games do disappear from open games once they start... because they are no longer 'open'
I'm fine with that, I just want little missiles flying about.
That was actually a design choice on the developers part -- they thought it would be boring to play if you have no one else in the same starting system. Ron you stated that it was a design choice after he complained about ALL players in the same system... cramping them all into one system defeats the entire point of it. That wasn't a design decision. The effect sho
As of I am available 5pm Eastern... Tuesday-Friday Just cannot do today (Monday)
See while that could work I find that is more open to criticism of being an 'uber' defense than the light missile battery idea we were just talking about... but don't get me wrong, yours can work and be balanced too; I just think it would take more effort. It would pretty much be tactical missile launchers from SupCom (but useful this time lol)
damn wish I had been there for this... I'll never forsake Sins to work on my Galciv Mod again! lol stuck at work when i should be playing.... damn you columbus day
if thats a design attempt by the dev's then I am kind of angry, I thought it was just that the random map maker was currently FUBAR, and they said that too. As a design Idea I frankly HATE HATE HATE it. Its silly your playing on a huge map for a reason... cramping them all into one system defeats the entire point of it. Just as well play on a medium map or even small, since you will likely just kill them off. Frankly it will go FASTER since the AI will never leave the system bu
Kryo stated that Fighters and Flak can 'intercept' LRM
good luck playing as Pizza the Hut! -I was suggesting it would just be a benefit of the Existing Culture upgrades not a new upgrade-
I think we are all aware of that, and if you read a little more carefully you would see that I (and I don't think anyone who has posted in this thread) are looking for an 'uber-defense' that would be absolutely stupid. I was unaware that fighters intercepted LRM, that does change things a bit, and yes I'm aware the intention of not having weapons that reach the edge of the Grav well... even though they have a weapon which does that quite effectively already and even though currently if
This could be present with one of the broadcast towers upgrade, they could exactly like trade stations, in that the liners go from tower to tower, this makes you a little money but more importantly would spread culture faster. Twould be nice.
