Hell yeah I'm giving it time. (I know I should be gone but it's 2am here and I'm wide awake AND sober for a change)(though there is that beer in the fridge... back in a sec).

I want the game to work and I cut AH as much slack as he needs but that doesn't mean I'm going to pretend the game is hot just because it knows how to slap on some lipstick.

I think you need to go to bed and get drunk, maybe not in that order.

Personally I was thinking cheeseburger but your idea has merit too.

Frightlever, please post Aaron about all the things that you don't like. I really don't want to sound like a wiseguy but nearly everthing that was said in this thread has been said in beta, too.

frightlever, we've (beta testers) mentioned most, if not all of the things mentioned in the thread. Some things just weren't fixed, I think due to a bit of a rush.

...if months of beta-testing hasn't turned this up then I'm not hopeful it's going to change... How did you manage a year of beta-testing without fixing the system display?


Please do not blame the beta testers for this...

I tried out the combat simulator to see how missiles looked and as I am wont to do I started it a second time and discovered all the ships just sat there. I discovered that after a sim all the ships stay damaged rather than starting all over again. This means if you want to try something different you have to remove all the damged ships and chose all over again.

The nice thing is that that does let you try combats with damaged ships.

The fastest way to clear the list is just to quit the simulator and go back in.

Torrent link no longer appears to work. Would some please post a new torrent link? Also SF might want to consider listing the torrent on their website/forum, so that we torrent users, can share the bandwith download for the demo.

I have a question...how do you fine tune your race? You know, add x% to construction ability, etc. I can't seem to find how to do that.
