Re: RFC: re-squared-dux ...

I would be excited to see a preview.

I am really liking the direction you took with your latest effort, as your older designs didn't appeal to me. (Say what you will about ships, and frills, and fancy graphics, but the original ship set is so darned... iconic. I LOVE the original shapes and designs.)

Re: Galactic Navy Strikes Back

Would be terribly fun. I'm not sure how the details would work exactly however. For instance, would the game place the Behemoth way out in the middle of nowhere, so that the spawned pirates/Thargoids don't disrupt a system? I'm not sure how coding works and all of that, but it would be very cool if ...

Re: Galactic Navy Strikes Back

:evil:

Don't tease me! A tour of six months on a Behemoth with a ranking system and such?

:cry:

I want it!

*EDIT*

Hmm... a mighty familiar looking Sig you have there... :lol:

Re: Tales from the spacelanes...

Nice pic. I've been meaning to take a picture of some combat. Unfortunately, even though Ive played before, the 'ol brainpan shuts down. :? One of these days I'll stop OMGWTFBBQ! long enough to take some shots. I am pretty impressed with that Adder however! I came across a Mk. I vs. a Mk I and reali...

Re: How many people use the Fuel Tank OXP?

Honestly, I don't think I've ever used one. :|

That being said, I can't imagine flying ...(floating?) without at least one. Just in case.

Re: Favourite ship.

Yeah. A real shame. Oh well. Maybe someone could cook up a nice hud? Like that old steampunk one? :mrgreen:

Re: Favourite ship.

Well, I couldn't resist, and edited an extra save file with some cash, and went hunting for the Fer-De-Lance (FDR). Once I got my hands on one, I iron-assed it the best I could, and picked a fight with the local police. Even with the extra energy bank, the 2 energy banks the FDR has, simply can't ha...

Re: Favourite ship.

I wanted to like the python. I really did. It was just so slow. If an asp attacked, even with Injectors there is no getting away. Ramming helps, but that old tub was just a real pain. I love the idea of the Python. Dependable, with a cool history. It just didn't do it for my flying style. Especially...

Ouch!

Hopefully the fee is based on how much credits are in your account. A flat fee of 1000+ is kinda steep. :|

Re: Screenshots

Hah! The hud works great!

Jump the que! I tried that once. Should probably add that experience to the Darwin Award's thread.

I think they could hear the 'splat' in galaxy 8.

:(

Smiv, that made me laugh, I've never had one jump past ME. Never thought about it from their shoes..er..landing gear.

Re: Elite vs. Oolite. Some observations.

Bah! In MY time, we had to start in a Cobra Mk 3, and if you wanted something better you had to trade! Whilst trading, you where expected to know all the little tips and tricks, and if you didn't? Well, sirree, you better strap in for a long, and ardurous ride. Some, lesser souls tried to take the e...

Say what you will about exciting combat, sunskimming adventures, and running from the law. I seem to spend more time doing this.... [ http://i53.tinypic.com/53vla1.jpg ...then anything else. This is the kinda thing that will make a guy snap. Sitting behind Adder's all day waiting to get in. Suddenly...

Re: Elite vs. Oolite. Some observations.

Oh very cool! I was unaware of the pl list data. I will definately give that a shot. Thanks for the heads up! Looks like I need to do ALOT more research before I start throwing around complaints. :) Thanks for setting me straight. So many features and things I didn't realize about Oolite's customiza...

:shock: :oops: Eheh. Well. Now that I've been schooled on timing, I forgot to bring up something else that bothered me for a bit. Elite. Naturally, I want it. Badly. I'd like to do it, to where its an accomplishment. Now, I can never be on that list of elite players (or get the cool pin.) but under ...

Re: Elite vs. Oolite. Some observations.

I'm sorry! I use J. It helps me avoid the space lanes.

The time acceleration is new to me. (I have been away for a while.) Is that where you pause the game, and speed it up manually? Or is there some new hotkey I don't know about?
