Not to mention we're arguing about Newtonian physics in a universe with FTL, energy shields, giant space monsters, etc.

Not to mention a universe that crashes to desktop.

I like to think it's more a galaxy with multiple solar systems.

More like a tiny sector of a tiny sector of a tiny sector of a tiny sector of an low density arm of a galaxy..but yea lol.

This is pathetic. If you guys want to argue about ship sizes, MAKE ANOTHER THREAD.

My first shared system

That an ally or can you share systems regardless of diplomatic status?

(Actually, that is a silly question. With diplomacy off there are no allies, so forget I asked.)

What?!

 

[SchLoTTi]

He attacked with a fleet of ships and stations. And the stations causing massive lags.

But... how?

*mind = blown*

Some elements of a game should be realistic and some should not. Physics is among those that should. Imagine this as an extension of reality.

For example, it would be nice if the ships would deviate from their trajectories when they spin around.

I think it's magic. Also called bug :S.

Took this on launch day when the actual game was a crock

This screenie alone kept my hopes alive

Serious badassery right? heck yes

Physics. We have multiple different FTL drive technologies, psionic powers and giant space whales that telekineticely shifted into space, causing the water they had with them to flash-freeze and you still think realistic physics are something this universe is supposed to have? In science fiction, physics shoudl be consistend, not realistic.

Wonder if you go to war whether the planets throw missiles at each other. Probably dont have the range.....wouldnt it be funny though if they did, and the planets moved....itd be like the planets move into range of each other, lob missiles and then move out of range. "cya next year A$$HOLES!!"

 

[JamesX]

As far as I can tell planets this time around are no longer armed. There also doesn't seem a way to arm stations :/

 

[SchLoTTi]

I already saw planets shoot missiles. But not at the enemy. Just in nevada.

 

[unmerged(402700)]

Missiles don't work correctly, but nothing really does.

Please people, would you mind taking all the non-screenshot related discussions somewhere else?

It is quite deceiving to check the forum and see that the thread has more pages than last time, only to find out barely a handful of new pics have been added.
