I didnt forget them Hendar23, but I could only pick 5. There was so many great devs in the past to pick from, but those 5 I think could come up with something special as each could bring something different to the dev table. The real problem of course would be to get ...

You forgot Glyn Williams and Michael Powell.

<t>Fun for a bit, but then you hit seven months and it's game over! Just when you start to have fun! Stupid, stupid, stupid design decision.It's also incredibly easy once you figure out how to win every engagement. Forget battleships, the two starting frigates are all you need to win any battle ...

True. That's why I love I-War

Hmm you covered a few good ones there.1. More career types like archologist, star mapper, ship and building designer, etc.. 2. Consumeable resources... fuel, ammo, resources, antimatter, etc...3. Hacking/Spying. Think it would be amazing to build a skill that would ...

<t>Absolutely true. Very underrated. Still the only space combat game I've tried that actually feels like you are in space and is still fun. The combat is simple, yet complex and hard to master. The ship systems were actually designed by people who stopped to think about how space combat might ...

1-2Billion ISK. How long does that take the average player to get years?? I know I personally only played the trial and new the game was going to need to much of my time to play so I didn't invest into it. I can maybe only dedicate 1-3 hrs per day to a MMO if that. So in ...

Ahhh...EVE Online. I only stopped playing because I couldn't play it enough to get the most out of it, and I was getting frustrated. If I ever end up divorced with no life, I shall play EVE again. 18 hours a day.

<r>Sorry about the typos in the above quote. Yeah, I actually sat and typed that all in. And now I can't seem to edit it.I lied, there is actually a picture on the cover of the original British edition. Not much detail, but you can see it forming out of fractal pixels, which sounds cool, but is ...

You have a screenshot or link to one Hendar23?<br/>
No, sorry. They are from two books by M John Harrison: Light and Nova Swing.I urge you to check them out.Though I'd love to see them in a game, when K-Ships do battle, they move in 14 spacial and 4 temporal dimensions ...

<t>A K-Ship. Hands down."Eighteen miles above their heads, one of DeRaad's connexions fired its /HAM engine for 7.02milliseconds, flipped lazily onto its back and, with the first wisps of displaced atmosphere already flaringoff its hull like an aurora, raced earthwards.
