Dunno if this was caught, but in the "armored bow" section, it says it can withstand "alot of damage". A lot is two words. Pet peeve makes me cringe every time.

I was so going to link to the Alot Monster! Gotta love the Oatmeal.

I'm thinking the ships could do with a few more weapon points (like 50% more), it might make larger desings more appealing since you can stack more firepower on them while making the smaller ships a bit more versatile. The current amount feels so limiting. Also couldn't the larger ships have more slots for defensive weapons?
That's not The Oatmeal at all. Look at the link.
- Let me target all my guns at something, instead of one at a time.
- Let me target ships, not just fixed locations.
- Let me tell my guns to stop targeting a previously selected target, and go back to auto-fire.
- I see why drag and drop would be nice on tablets, but it's irritating on PC. At least let us choose whether we drag-and-drop or click twice.
- In shipbuilding mode, give me a stats block for the ship as a whole - I want to see total speed, total HP, etc, not just the modifiers from this one section. This should also include information like burst damage and DPS.
- More customization. A lot more customization. The fact that I don't have any options to change slot layouts besides picking a new class is just silly. I'd love to see a "Turret" section, for example, which costs more points but lets me turret-mount weapons, as well as "offensive", with extra hardpoints. It also feels like the point spread on weapon options is too low - there should be 20-point gun options, not just 110 being the lowest.
- Let me zoom further out.
- Multi-second lag in singleplayer is inexcusable.
- Why is 8000 points the max? That's tiny. I want 50k point battles. (Or at least, I would if controlling my ships wasn't such a headache)
- Let the instinctive keyboard commands PC users use work. If I hit Enter in a popup, I want the popup to go away. If I hit Delete with a turret selected, I want the turret to go away.

Ah, I see. Guess I never saw the original source and assumed it was him because the style is so similar, and the "alot of oatmeal" pic.
I really hope they add keyboard commands soon, this game desperately needs them.
In regards to lag, what server are you playing on? I finished the co-op campaign on US1 with two other friends and it was perfect...
I'd really like to see a more detailed archive, like top viewed replays, latest replays, sort them by map/players/names etc. and the option to watch a replay at random, maybe even a theatrical mode, where it automagically shows one replay after the other, and zooms in on big hits on ships etc.
Whatever the default is. It works fine for probably 2/3 of my turns, but the other 1/3 have significant delays. I'll try switching to US and seeing if that helps.
In the Shipyard - The scroll interface for components is not utilizing the space of the menu.
