I just had a thought on something that could be added to increase some difficulty... Depending on the level of hostility to you... Ship(s) will follow you into your sphere of influence if in scanning range while following you Ship(s) will follow you into SOL if in scanning range when you drop out of hyperspace Ship(s) will attack you at bases if in scanning range when you dock
[quote who="Kwayne64" reply="21" id="3786730"] To boost numbers somewhat, Stardock could try providing a japanese voiceover alternative. Japanese VO improves everything, and I'm sure a lot of weebs agree with me on this [e digicons]:)[/e] [/quote] Hey now, a Japanese VO is useless without artwork from the school of Akira Toriyama if not from the legend himself. :) -- Yes this could be an epic Easter Egg in game though.
Chalk me up as another just stoked to get a sequel, but a few things that would be nice... A deeper dive on breadcrumbs left in SCO, IE deeper world building around the random items and races found around the map. A living map influenced by your actions/inactions from SCO and the sequel -- for example Return of the Jabberwonks who create a Steampunk world with your help The ladies Lt Kerry visited will visit Earth with their thanks The a

I had a thought on the difficult task :) Picture it... Sicily 1913... \*cough* I mean Space 2178 After 18 months of deep cover exploration of Scryve space in a salvaged Scryve cruiser, the crew has perfected their Scryve Naval Fleet impersonation and puppeteering skills to travel through the territory mostly unhindered, have returned with not only a large cache of information on the Scryve Empire but also an ancient device that appears to be of precursor design...

Just a crazy quick note to toss in... We will never get a 100% Vanilla game as Activision is involved in the mix as well unlike back when Vanilla WoW first came out, so seeing those monetization items likely stems from that. Even if WoW Classic was 150% self sustainable Blizzard will still be pressured by Activision to do this or that to increase profit margins. Now one thing I did suggest on WoWhead's facebook is that they should intentionally cripple the
Honestly I like the ideas but have a suggestion... Take those ideas and bundle them all into the console releases by default and make it a free patch for those who have Lifetime Founder / Earth Rising Season Pass as well as an optional Digital Deluxe Edition upgrade DLC set at $X for those with just the base game. Now if it's all added, for those of us loading a pre patch save I'd suggest a small voiced video showing something akin to the followin
If anything, I'd suggest doing the deeper levels of maintenance prior to upgrading to Windows 10... IE Update the Bios on your PC - Re-configure as needed. Update the vBios on your video card(s) if there is an update for it Do a full surface scan check disk of your hard drive(s) Clean/replace system fans
[quote who="RedneckDude" reply="50" id="3746933"] Not sure on part number. I bought it used, no packaging. From Newegg specs. Samsumg MZ1LV960HCJH 960GB PCI Express Gen3 x4 M.2 Enterprise SSD 1.3DWPD; M.2 Form Factor 960GB NVMe PCIe Gen 3.0 x4 Supplies 3
Crazy question, what's the part number of your SSD? A quick google search brings up Enterprise class solid states which could be the issue as the consumer version of Samsung Magician may not have support for Enterprise class drives.
Crazy things for you to double check real quick "Sorry I skimmed and didn't read the full content of every reply" To get the best performance out of your solid state especially boot performance I suggest the following items. The basics: Update and configure your Bios for the optimal settings... IE AHCI on for your SATA/SAS drives, unless they are being utilized by a hardware raid controller. Update the Firmware on your drive(s) <li
Don't feel bad, the RTX Titan just got announced a few days ago for $2,500 USD.
Awesome :) -- Don't forget to pick up a new NVLink if you want to do the modern equivalent to SLI... Also don't look as I may try to sneak over and swap your cards with my 2 1070ti cards :D

They are a pretty valuable trade good if you know who to sell them to :)
I had a thought on a few things that would be wonderful QoL additions... Hyperspace Friend or Foe flagging - Upgrade to the one scanner we have SOL Space Station storage unit - Storage for Materials and components you don't want to sell Human ships able to be upgraded when Schematics are found, or components are reverse engineered... IE Hypersonic Nukes instead of Advanced Nuke, Phasors instead of Point Defense. --
Another thing to try, especially if you had previous fleet battle betas installed... In your My Documents folder, you should see a My Games folder. In there you should see a Star Control Folder, delete the settings.ini file that you find in there and try starting the game again. -- I know it sounds weird but it has worked for a few others so far.
Well... one thing you can think of... The 2080Ti is currently priced at where the 1080Ti was about 6 months ago.

First impressions of the new beta "I'll edit this as I go along" Loving the easier access to dialog via keyboards, but I ran into the same issue as others with the numpad not registering a 1 as a 1 :) the fun stuff. Most of the information from the commander on the Lexites is unvoiced at this time Having no ability to jump on Titan is "ARG" worthy, especially when the keymap in the top right shows space to jump On the lander modules in outfit fleet, it shows
[quote who="GMOrz" reply="529" id="3717934"] I'm not clear why filing a valid DMCA take-down notice for their own games would lead one to fear a DMCA take-down notice for a non-infringing work. [/quote] Let's just say for argument sake that Paul had every legal right to DMCA 1 and/or 2 and completely eliminate that from the conversation. -- No I'm not saying that he did, as we still have to wait for the courts to do their thing, I just want to strike it from the conversation
[quote who="Elestan" reply="510" id="3717889"] But the way I personally see it, Paul and his group made the game, which was then published with a prominent copyright attribution to Paul and Fred. All of the other people involved surely were aware of this, and none of them raised a voice in disagreement. For me, that's good enough to satisfy my sense of proper attribution and rights allocation. We'll just have to see what the courts say about the legalities. [/quote
[quote who="BionicDance" reply="508" id="3717887"] I have to admit, I've been resisting getting on Discord...it'd been like, "What...another social media platform? I can barely keep up with Facebook and YouTube anymore, and now this? Ugh."

[quote who="BionicDance" reply="504" id="3717882"] How recently? Cuz, I'll be honest, if that's what's in Fleet Battles in the currently released build, it's been remixed to where I don't really recognize it...and I've been replaying UQM lately to get even more psyched for Origins (though that may be to my own detriment; I'm already champing at the bit for September to get here) so it's kind of fresh in my head...

[quote who="eride" reply="496" id="3717856"] I think the issue you are having is that you don't actually understand the concept of a trademark.

Potentially... however I don't know the mechanics of GC:III well enough to tell you yes/no especially when it comes to bigger map sizes. However I just wanted to chime in and tell you to make sure your motherboard can handle the total of 32GB, your version of Windows can handle it and you properly adjust the size of your page file to accommodate the additional ram in case there's a program crash.
[quote who="eride" reply="494" id="3717832"] I find the UQM community arguments amusing because the parallel argument would be that anyone can 100% copy every element that is associated with a trademarked good and it is perfectly acceptable as long as you don't label the good with the mark. [/quote] How I see it is as follows... Star control is Trademarked and at the time was owned by Atari which is why when the project was released into the wild it was named "The Ur
