(I think the robotic cruiser is the most useless ship in the game next to the command cruiser). makes me sad... but he has a valid point. i do hope this changes.

my big complaint is the way fleet management is done. yes we have the numbers, but i like to asign ships to guard other ships (ex. my flagship). it can take a very long time to get my fleet set up the way i want it, then with one accidental drag select rather then only using my numbers... all those guard orders are gone. its very annoying. id like to see a "lock" feature when assigning a ship to another ship. this would save me ALOT of hasle. right now i dont even bother with fleet micro m

I feel similarly with regards to how invaluable the ships seem to be. though i dont agree with those who want LESS ships. im hopeing that when the "crew" feature is intigrated that this will help make us more carful to not just commit suicide with our valuable crews. im hopeing that we will need to take into acount the value of human life. say by making great loss of life affect moral and tax income. possibly even causing some planets to rebell if we needlessly waist ships just because we k

i dont know about free, but i deffinitly support an option to make techs cheeper (or more expencive) for multiplayer games. right now they take tooo long and i think this would be a really good way to get more ships fighting sooner... wich is why we play the game

Yeah i think i noticed the stock market tab in beta 2... so i it isnt new(if my memory serves me). i remember seeing it and thinking the same thing to myself but the conversation in my head wound up concluding that there is porbably a stock market feature that the devs have yet to make official. it could be the stock market is just a back ground game mechenism that helps determin what prices are and how much you get for trade and tourism and what not. when it says money spent and money erned

yeah whatever... i like the asthetics of the green and purple stars. as unlikely as they maybe (and i honestly dont know the stats) i still like the way they look, they make the game less symetrical... same with the sky boxes, they are HUGELY unrealistic. but for a game i dont mind them tooo much

oh and the original thing i was gonna get on here to say... but got totally sidetract the tactical grid in different sized systems have different size squares... im guessing this is to make every grav well have the same amount of boxes. while i can see the initial logic in this it leads us very stray in how we perseave the grav well size. i think it would be beter to have the boxes the same si

- solar flares? not just fancy effects from star, but what about random huge flares (one an hour?) which errupt from the star and slowly move out across the system (slowly) im sure there are lots of things you can guys can come up with so it can effect gameplay... (lose phase lanes?) sheilds reduced in the storm? planets effected when it hits them. This is a bit like that plasma storm effect you got in B3, but its just feels a bit randomly placed. why ha

Twas the dawn before death. All knew tomorrows light, we would not see. Preparations had been made; defenses constructed. This was our day. It belonged to no other. For we The Travilers were a proud people. No mater how fiercely or ferociously the evil Polluxo were to smite their venomous wrath upon us, we were determined to vanquish these horrors back to the nether world from winst they came. The mighty Traviler Empire had once ruled more then half the known galaxy. We ruled with honest

ok, just to save face then drop it... check out Scientific American: A Matter of Time, June 26, 2006 pg. 6 article "That Mysterious Flow." This article depicts what I’m trying to say 100x better then I could. The idea of the film strip cut up and stacked on top of each other came from that article. I get my info from sci. magazines and physics classes... I’m a 4th year Astro-physics undergrad at the Univ. of Cal. at Irvine. I do claim some knowledge but as (I think it was) Plato said, "The b
