<r>first off some of your complaints not be answered in an expansion or sequal but in a patch. the designer of the game continually adds things into the game free of charge, for example i had an old version before they released the current 2.0 commercial version but with a patch my old version was ...

<t>well for the weapons it depends. if you have super powerful generators and no shields but armor than youll want laser based weapons or anything that runs off the generator because youll be able to use all your energy to power your guns. but if youve got weak generators and shields that suck a lot ...

random events

<t>the random event feature is nice to have in there i just wish they were more exciting random events. for example one game i played in where i was doing really well i had a stock market crash where i lost twenty percent of my cash. so instead of having 60000 i dropped to like 40000 so it wasnt too ...

<r>you would think that intersteallar standoffs would work like space ships. like a big ship loaded with explosives launched at another world with the sole intent of blowing it up.<br/>

in a future patch i think it would be cool if they worked like spaceships, where you could select it and ...

<r>i prefer the laser systems. a limitless weapon cache. i read in one of the earlier strategies listed in the forum about how over powered the laser systems are. i mean think about it, early in the game when you're exploring with standoffs, if you run out, you have to run back to your planet and ...

<t>the reason it happened was because on of your worlds was building something, probably a freighter route and you didn't realize it, and by not having one world help research it throws everything else off. you notice something like that more when you're just using two planets and one goes to build ...

ok but just so you know, the game is located at eletronic boutiques, and itll probably be faster to ask them if they have it rather than look for it on your own. i cant wait......maybe you could buy the game for all your artistical fellow worker friends hey? :D

electronic boutique has it. its just not like they have a big display or anything its just sitting there on the shelf. the demo is nothing compared to the real game, if only we could get working mods for it.

the file name of each movie. the movie folder has three movies in it i think and i just tacked on the number 1 to each of them so if i wanted to switch it back all id need to do is remove the one. actually......i think andrew does that too.
