      Regarding the blueprint revamp...

      Why does the Trading Guild exist if not to satisfy the needs of the customer? If I was a Trading Guild member I would be willing to round up all needed parts for my customers (players), for a price. Perhaps when shipyards are included in the game you could order a ship from a blueprint and...

      Thoughts about the recent trailers and equalty between shipbuilders.

      I agree, there are TONS of really great builders out there and if the developers want to take time to search out the best of the best, that is fine. But if they are busy doing other things like improving GAMEPLAY and can't spend a bunch of time putting on a fashion show, that is fine with me.

      Thoughts about the recent trailers and equalty between shipbuilders.

      Let's step back and ask ourselves what is our primary desire? Is it to get our name in lights, or a gold star on our foreheads? I think it is to see Shine complete and share an AWESOME game! Last time I checked this wasn't STAR CITIZEN. I doubt Schema has 62 million dollars in his back...

      Prebuilt ships included in game

      I would have it be a requirement of the mission. If you return the ship in good shape you will receive your payment. Any damage will come out of your pay. If you want to keep the ship, that is fine, it will be deducted from your pay, it is then unlocked and you can salvage or upgrade it. The...

      Minecraft in Space?

      I don't mean to rag on minecraft, I have had a lot of fun in that game. It is a brilliant concept and probably deserves the popularity it has garnered. However, I think Starmade can push so far beyond minecraft it is unimaginable. Now that minecraft is owned by Microsoft it may go in entirely...

      Prebuilt ships included in game

      I would think MOST new players would start the game in single player and start a brand new universe, rather than just jumping into multiplayer. When you start a brand new game first impressions are really important. If they start the game and can't figure out what to do, or the universe is...

      Minecraft in Space?

      Is that a compliment or a put-down? I honestly hope Starmade is not Minecraft in Space. Minecraft became popular since it was really one of the first voxel games. I think minecraft was fun for a while, but once you have built twenty castles and dug numerous mineshafts it becomes boring. Only...

      Steam is Coming to Starmade!

      My biggest worry for Starmade on Steam is there isn't much game content right now. Yes it is fun to build ships, but if you aren't a big ship builder there isn't much to do. It really needs some missions, or critters, or some reason to explore other than gathering minerals. I haven't seen a...

      How I feel (and want) salvage to work

      The salvage cannon located in our space suits currently does not pulse. I would think the same "technology" found in our personal salvagers would apply to ship based salvagers. I know that doesn't really matter as far as game play goes, but it would be nice to be consistent.

      Prebuilt ships included in game

      With the game about to be introduced on Steam I really think some prebuilt ships for beginners should be included. When I started playing I had no idea how to build a decent ship (my ships are still ugly compared to a lot of ones I have seen). I know we can buy an Isanth, but you really don't...

      A manifesto on crewability

      I love building ships with complete interiors, medical labs, science labs, hangers, galley, rec center, etc. But they don't really serve any purpose right now. If you have ever played the Silent Hunter submarine series you know that you can assign crew to different areas. Repair crews...

      StarMade 0.1836 New Tutorial and loads of fixes

      Remember, this is Schema's Masterpiece. I am glad he is willing to tweak and adjust things to get the best results. Complaining that things have changed is like telling DA VINCI that the Mona Lisa doesn't smile enough. Yes, it is sometimes annoying, but let's be patient.

      Fog of War (and stellar information)

      KUPU does have a good point about space being overwhelming to explore. You could play this game for months and not chart the whole galaxy. However, I do think it might be good to hide some information. One game I used to play called STAR CONTROL II (Ur-Quan Masters) would show you a complete...

      Fog of War (and stellar information)

      How about an option to start a new server with FOG of WAR enabled. I really would like only the stuff I have actually found to appear on the galactic map. (How the shops are now) This way I have an incentive to go fly to the distant planet or star to fill my map with info. Along with this I...

      What's next? 0.9/0.85 spec general.

      I look forward to a game where ships that aren't designed just to destroy other ships are useful, such as freighters, science vessels, survey ships, passenger transports, etc. This will only happen once the game gets missions and more noncombat NPC's. We really need a REASON for these ships...

      Post your imaginary missions in StarMade here!

      I would like to see some noncombat missions such as: MISSION: Transport supplies RECOMMENDED SHIP: freighter OBJECTIVE: Deliver needed supplies to Starport Epsilon in the Mectacol Rex system. REWARD: 500,000 credits --------------------------------------------- MISSION: Search out new life...

      Items and blocks in shop should cost more

      Right now the trading guild aren't very good businessmen. It is tough for them to make a profit when the shops sell stuff for the same price that they buy them. I do think the shops should by default charge at least 20% more for everything than what they buy it for.

      half blocks and stairs

      In minecraft I like ceilings that are 2.5m high, so half blocks would be nice for that. I am ok with ramps for stairs. Now LADDERS would be great!

      Missing chunks around docking or turret modules

      About 10% to 20% of the time when I start my game I find sections of my station missing. They always are missing around the area where a turret or docking module are located. If I fly far away from my base then return the pieces have returned, or some other piece is missing. It usually...
