blackholes a crazy little things... they're not really even holes... jsut points in the universe where gravity had a field day.... of course, much of quantum mechanical phsyics may be a bunch of junk.... really i think we jsut dont know enough to even speculate on what is and is not possible... however, soemthing funny is that Sci-Fi always apears to be right in one way or another... just one step ahead of scientits....
mm... ya.. but my fighters usually outmatch anything the AI has... the little ships swarm anything they throw at them... the sheer numbers make it hard to get rid of them. large ships take a lnog time to fire. when you have thousands of miniature ships out there, they take a long time to eradicate you. a good strategy is to have one big capital ship in a fleet of fighters (as many as possible) so that the enemy ships will shoot the little things and the capital ship stays around for a really lon
well... still confusing... but looks cool..
okay, how about this: a new type of wormhole that is stable and will last for several trips and is two-wayed. by sending a constructor through to the far end you can build a structure on both sides that let you stabilize the wormhole to act permanently. this would allow for instant travel between both ends.... of course... maybe you could create your own wormholes... then of course you would be able to collapse them... make your own gates... very confusing.....
sssooooo.... what are you trying to say???
This is ambitious and will mreo than likely fail. however, i want to team up with some players who feel they have some great ideas for games and whatnot, or those who feel like making a game. no im not saying it would be published. but just for the heck of it, deseign every aspect of a game. what genre, characters, places, challenges, story. that kind of thing. down to the last inch. so who wants to do this? who knows! maybe stardock will take interest? (okay, not likely, but HEY! there
SE:V looks interesting (i checked it out). like a twin of GCII that was sperated at birth and looks totally different, yet basically the same! BSG: BRL was really hard to get info on!!! looks good.... but.... uuuhh.... i couldnt get any info on it!
By all means, physics say it is impossible to exceed light speed. however, by bending space (ideally, gravity does a pretty good job of that!) you can propel yourself through normal space at amazing speeds, and never have any velocity. however, there may be other modes of transportation. very little is really known about the universe. some scientists make it seem like we have it all figured out, but thats a blatant lie. you cant travel faster than light. but they never say any
i dont really think there is one... there might be, but i doubt it. i think it is a matter of what your comp can handle and what you can reap in with taxes. i once created an armada (well, it wasnt all in one fleet... several actually...) of countless tiny ships. these little swarms eradicated everything my enemy threw at me. i could produce about three of them a week and it could wipe them out in one shot... however it only had so many super ships.... basically i think i eceeded 100 i
Alright, you people are starting to play with some seriously theoretical stuff now.... but if you want something that is absolutely insane, and yet, by all means, mathematically true, then read this: according to some physicist (i dont know his name, i just remember being told about it and seeing the book), the entire universe is an illution, and, in basic terms, a computer program like "The Sims". so imagine: maybe "The Matrix" was more science than fiction. heres another odd thing. u

well, it does stop purchases, however, i keep building ships, even when im all the way down at -1000 bc. as for the map, i know how to fix it. just wondering if it was an inconvienience, or whether it was just me. i do know how to temporarily fix it. its just annoying.
Oh yes, i forgot NWN 2! ya, im waiting for that as well.
Heres some info: 90% of the universe is unknown, and undetected. this is thought to be the results of Dark Matter and Dark Energy. 20% of the universe is thought to be Dark Matter, while 70% of the universe is thought to be Dark Energy. nobody is sure what it is, or what it does. it emits no forms of radiation (Infra-red, visible spectrum, ultra violet, microwave, or X-ray) that can be detected. however, it is beleived that its gravitational effects can be dected in the movement of stars, galaxi
I only want an idea of some of the hulls. not ALL of them. just to get an idea of what they did!

I was playing a game when i hit a rough part of a war. i was forced to buy ships enlessly when i went into negatives. all my ships were supposed to never complete... except they were still being built!!! helpful really, but wierd non the less sometimes when i zoom my minimap to 200-500, inluence bubbles disapear. its bery annoying when you are trying to figure out who owns what!
Here is a small list of games im waiting (dying) for to come out. the games are: GC II Dark Avatar, GuildWars Nightfall, Stargate Worlds, Star Trek: Legacy, Star Trek Online, SUPREME COMMANDER!!! YA MAN!!!!, Battlefield 2142, WoW: Burning Crusade, and... well some new rts, but thats been covered already! what are you waiting for? (it is really hard to type when you cant see the keyboard!!!)
i keep getting an issue with my first ship. the survey one. every time it dies, i can still see the area around where it once was. this is more advantageous than anything, but still, a bug non the less.
its been pretty well stated that there will be tons of new hulls and ship aprts in the expansion. but what will they look like? will they be more the current styles, only with new variations? or will they be radically new???
I had this problem and it came after i got tons of updates off of stardock central. i decided that i hadnt gotten all of it, so i went to the site and downloaded the bonus thingummy. however, i didnt download the retail update with it (stupid me....). THE BLASTED THING TOOK UP TWELVE SECTORS!!!! the small ones took up about three. in anycase, download ALL the updates. make sure you every single one, and if you do, then its an issue with your comp. by the way, i have a ATI Radeon 9250,
this randomly apeared while i was playing as a custom race. i was talking to the terran alliance guy, and when the screen came up and the dialogue came up, he said something and the third word was "... [LeaderName]...". the words before it were something like "we are always pleased to speak to [LeaderName] something something something..." in anycase, it didnt happen again, but it was rather odd. the other bug involved the autopilot and the course it plotted. it was near the very edge
Right, well, i only just started playing a few days ago, but i got this game figured out already, and im preparing to do a REALLY BIG MOD. so far, i think it will be one of the largest made yet (from what ive seen so far listed in the library). this major issue at hand is the ships. the mod im doing is at first, only going to be a small test, an alternate reality. later, i plan to make an ENTIRE campaign, and several scenerios. the mod is based off an idea i got soem time ago, and it

I would want to see: economic vicory TONS of new hulls, and not those crazy things they have been making. i gotta say, the ones they have mostly stink (no offense, but they seriously do). the ability to make ai aim for a particular vicory. new scenerios. more effecient ways of keeping people happy and gettign a high approval (i discovered early on that keeping a planet with a population of 45 billion is VERY hard). new weapons and def
I have had that problem. I went total Military a few days ago. there must have been a glitch or something in that game, because i ended up with ships armed to the teeth with black hole eruptors, shields galor, some good armor, amazing speed (some of my ships could go half-way across the map in one turn, but those didnt have any weapons...), and other, very nice, stuffs to go with them (aka: military starbases all throughout my territory, some in enemy). but i only had two fleets of the beasty sh
ok... now i know what your talking about, thanks.
Ok, this will sound IMMENSELY noobish, but i am wondering as to what jewlery is. i keep hearing it reffered to, but i have yet to figure out what it is. is it the extras or something? i have downloaded the bonus stuff, and as far as i know, i installed it and all (i did so before updating my game, so for a while the stars took up about four sectors, which scared me) and i havent seen it. so, can somebody tell me what it is exactly?
