Ok, ASHBERY76, from now on you're our point man on this......post more pictures, at least until Erik developes resistance to them [:)]



J HG T -> RE: Just a quick note... (7/6/2011 7:37:34 AM)

Well, you know the saying "a picture is a worth a thousand words".

The fleet posture settings sound like a really nifty feature. Very useful for defence fleets, so that you won't have to micro them all the time.

Also, my best regards to Elliot! Hope he's doing fine despite all of his work.

Ok, after that pic, I had to post something. I can't go into too much detail yet, but here's another feature point. Keep in mind the final implementation may be different from what you see here from the design notes.


Imagine what he might have given us if we posted a picture of a Tyranosaur!

Okay Mr. Rutins, I was just teasing... it was too fun to pass up. You have already been generous.

Ok, a few more things to think about and discuss:

- Territory / Borders


I think the main point of discussion with regards to territory/borders is to fix it in its current implementation, before making changes that will leave it even more/just as broken as it is now.

The diplomatic option to demand removal of forces from your system is not working. It never has. It's been bugged. From release. It's never been fixed. No indication has ever been given that there was any intention of fixing it.

Expanding on buggy features will just mean a bigger, more buggy game. Is this really the sort of product Matrix wants to peddle?

Fishers of Men -> RE: Just a quick note... (7/7/2011 9:17:19 PM)

Another earthquake reported off the coast of New Zealand. Stay safe, Elliot!



Data -> RE: Just a quick note... (7/8/2011 8:41:16 AM)

Another significant one?



Igard -> RE: Just a quick note... (7/8/2011 11:24:47 AM)

It was 7.8, Data. Epicentre was south of the south island (away from Aukland and Elliot's home). It's the tsunami that might have caused some damage to the coasts, but I think I heard Elliot is a safe distance from the coast line.

I can only assume that everything was OK. There are news reports about it, but no follow up to say what the damage was. Like this one :-

Data -> RE: Just a quick note... (7/8/2011 12:18:48 PM)

That is indeed significant, let's hope for good news.



J HG T -> RE: Just a quick note... (7/8/2011 12:46:47 PM)

And here I'm complaining about extremely hot summer days! Everything is relative.




Data -> RE: Just a quick note... (7/8/2011 1:35:46 PM)

That's about the only constant



ASHBERY76 -> RE: Just a quick note... (8/8/2011 6:27:06 PM)

The announcement feels like about 2 years ago.[>:]

What is the roadmap for this expansion.

i vaguely recall reading something about Christmas



samspackman -> RE: Just a quick note... (8/9/2011 2:49:36 AM)

Christmas! Jesus.



Simulation01 -> RE: Just a quick note... (8/9/2011 3:59:02 AM)

None of us may have jobs or money by that time!!  The economy is collapsing faster than Elliot is programming!  The piigs are dying...the Dow is falling....  And the American people are losing confidence... [:(]



J HG T -> RE: Just a quick note... (8/9/2011 7:27:02 AM)

"None of us may have jobs or money by that time!!"

Or any friggin' time for that matter! My line of games for the last quarter of this year include Deus Ex: Human Revolution, Forza 4, Skyrim and Batman: Arkham City. Not to mention all the GOG and indie games I may be playing + My SR2 addiction started to kick in recently. 
And people are complaining about the lack of great games! Go figure.



Data -> RE: Just a quick note... (8/9/2011 7:43:55 AM)

Ohh yeah, I have a list of my own...though everytime someone mentions SR2 I also get the need.



Igard -> RE: Just a quick note... (8/9/2011 12:52:09 PM)

J, stop bringing up Skyrim! I'm not going to play and I'm not getting addicted to it. It doesn't exist! *checks the release date one more time* [:D]

It's about 3 months for beta testing am I right? Not sure, but if we assume it is, then we should be starting soon if TPTB are going for a xmas release.[&:]

What is TPTB?



Data -> RE: Just a quick note... (8/9/2011 1:45:30 PM)

The Pirate and Tj Bay? [sm=00000622.gif]



Igard -> RE: Just a quick note... (8/9/2011 9:47:09 PM)

The Powers That Be.[:)]



tjhkkr -> RE: Just a quick note... (8/10/2011 12:24:50 AM)

No pirates around here... my elite Star Fleet has reduced all their bases to space dust...
So I guess it is IGard who is correct... because we have plenty of powers that be...



Simulation01 -> RE: Just a quick note... (8/10/2011 3:51:25 AM)

Even the Borg would have given us a status update on our assimilation by now!!!  Erik, you can do better than the Borg!

That actually sounds scary [:)]



J HG T -> RE: Just a quick note... (8/10/2011 3:32:46 PM)

Though I'm usually very patient person, I've to concur with Simulation1 on this.

Data -> RE: Just a quick note... (8/10/2011 3:52:24 PM)

Ahhh, darn SR2 flashback....again [:-]



tjhkkr -> RE: Just a quick note... (8/10/2011 8:26:04 PM)

I am starting to develop my own game using VASSAL.
And I am waiting for CH to come out with Genesis II (yes, I still love board games.)

What is SR-2?



Data -> RE: Just a quick note... (8/10/2011 9:05:47 PM)

Space Rangers 2....the one and only [:)]



Shark7 -> RE: Just a quick note... (8/10/2011 11:41:26 PM)

Who was that masked man? [X(]


Er...nm, that's the Lone Ranger, not Space Rangers. [:D]
