The ENGINE is capable of that, but the actual game needs limits just to keep the insanity down. Otherwise things just degenerate into steamroller push fests. Wish I could dig up Multianna's thread and show you what I mean. He literally had 20,000+ Kols running around a system. His system nearly melted and burned his house down in the process, but the screen caps are incredible!

IGN has posted a Hands-on Preview of the famous Gamma build. (Lucky bastards) Swing on over, give it a read and a positive rating. Steve Butts really does this one justice. Hoping it garners a little more interest. [link="http://pc.ign.com/articles/848/848665p2.html"]IGN preview[/link]

Given the size of the manual in the release pics (have you seen that thing!) I'd imagine these kind of thing get a mention at least there. I'm in the same boat, though, hoping these kind of mechanics are more transparent in the final.

A cost per jump system also favor the Turtling player FAR too much. It takes a good 50 ships to destroy a well defended planet in a timely manner, even without fleet backup. Now pay 100 credits per jump like you seem to suggest, thats 5k credits to assault a planet, plus the cost of replacing casualties. Penalizing attacking players is a great way to slow down a game. This just doesn't really fit the game. The Anti-matter penalty for jumping already puts defense to a tactical advant

Well, EA recently came under new management. About the same time they acquired Bioware. It may be a sign EA has a new-found dedication to quality. But... Its EA after all. More likely they are just trying to overhaul their reputation and prove that they are at least capable of releasing a good, polished (and stable) game.

Galactica... You misunderstand. Its NOT [b]1 day[/b], its [b]Day 1[/b]. Just means the update will be available to DL and apply starting on the 1st day of release. It will still be there on Day 2, Day 3, and even Day 365. no worriez, man.
