    Is there still spaces open for Alpha testing?

    Yea June 17th is coming up fast. Those of us who are in have been chomping at the bit to get our friends into the game so we can play with them but it has not happened.

    Space combat is primitive?

    Smaller fighters are definately cheaper, even in bulk. I have heard people mention in channel that they would rather have 3 or 6 fighters to take out a destroyer sized ship, the balance is just not quite there yet.

    Space combat is primitive?

    People will always complain. No matter how awesome a system is done a group of its participants will find something to complain about. It is as inevitable as death and taxes.

    Space combat is primitive?

    ..........I have never in my life seen somebody post this much about a game they publicly claim is boring. *edit* Wait (and I apologize), I suppose you never used the words "boring", you just say "primitive". Which has kicked off 4 pages of back and forth on the matter. Somebody could walk up...

    The downfall of Starbase

    We were joking around in discord and discussing this a couple months ago. When we laughed about how long it would take one of the devs said "we would just respawn them long before that point, its really easy". So no, we are not running out of asteroids. But long term I think they want us to...

    You can also damage other ships by ramming into them. So kamikaze attacks are on the menu for cap ship battles.

    Remote explosives and sabotage?

    Be kinda pointless. The explosions from fuel tanks is not that big, but its pretty.

    Remote explosives and sabotage?

    Probably the visual link range honestly. Effectively if you are not shooting or interacting with a vehicle or SOMEBODY is not doing it, then it doesnt exist effectively if you are out of LOS to it. So maybe 1KM, but I bet if somebody is on it (keeping it active) and somebody flew off with the...

    Starbase Factories

    You probably have as much information as we have. Which is mostly in a dev released video. I do believe some of the factories at least can go in a civillian capital ship. I think I read that in discord from a dev.

    Space combat is primitive?

    lol, you can actually do that now. There is C4 in the game that you remote detonate. It comes in a pack of 10 I think (maybe 6). You slap it all over something and then detonate them with a click. Small localized explosion but it can take out beams. Spread them around and you can make an...

    Why a wipe after EA may actually be bad for newbies and the game

    Now that I could believe. Seems every patch a whole bunch of ships stop working right for some reason or another. Still even having a semiborked ship in the ssc builder can be useful and save you a lot of time building. The glass and plating alone *shudder*.
