      What Creatures/Aliens and other life forms would you like to see?

      This is why I've taken to liking Starmade more - there's not this insane (IMO) concept that the player needs to grind up to top-tier gear before getting to the more open-ended part of the game. I, for one, hope the developers learn from this and don't go down the "survival RPG" route...

      What would you guys like to see the next update be?

      There is also a recipe for pretty much everything in the buy menu - just go select the hull you want and press "buy recipe". However, by default this requires quite a lot of said block to buy... More options for the AI modules would be nice, though the logic system might already do this. Some...

      Collection of thoughts on faction happenings

      Speaking as one of these players, it's kind of a mix of a few factors. I started playing a while ago, just because it looked like a cool game with a lot of potential, but I kind of got distracted by other things and changes in my life, but came back recently to see the game, and the community...

      Dyson Spheres..

      Actually, take a look at this: http://www.universetoday.com/25348/what-is-the-smallest-star/ The smallest known star is roughly the size of Jupiter. A sufficiently advanced and industrialized space-faring civilization might just be able to pull it off with enough time, but it would be a...

      What Creatures/Aliens and other life forms would you like to see?

      Assuming that is the start of an alien creature and not something modded in, that looks like a good start. Angular, but not just made of a bunch of cubes. I suspect there's a lot that can be done with creatures shaped like that, without the technical issues that rounded bodies (like Spore...

      [Discussion] Tired of hearing "soon"? Thoughts on the Q&A

      As a developer myself, minor bugfixes and optimization should really come after the framework for the main features is built in. It doesn't make sense to fix a system you're planning on throwing out soon anyway.

      What Creatures/Aliens and other life forms would you like to see?

      I like the sound of this. What I really want to do with creatures is travel the galaxy surveying planets and collect unusual lifeforms for a zoo/farm of sorts. If they're varied enough one could do this for a long time without getting bored. I assume if people are going to be able to farm...

      List of ships not yet built

      that wasn\'t me. JimmyJamba should get credit for that. Not that it really matters, but I don\'t want to be given praise for something someone else did.

      List of ships not yet built

      It\'s pretty blocky and thus lends itself well to Starmade. I have seen an attempt or two at making the Lexx. Trouble is it\'s very rounded and organic, and all we have to work with are geometric shapes. Not to mention, if it were built to scale it would be ten sectors long.

      Torches - Anyone already Suggested?

      But it\'s not, and I\'m pleasantly surprised. Sure, why not?

      Alternative weapons

      If only to yell \"We\'re going to combine!!!\" beforehand.

      The Starmade's main problem

      You can\'t have everyone start out on different planets, as the immediate area around spawn would get filled with planets... but if everyone starts on the same planet, the spawn planet would be cannibalized by the first couple players on the server.

      TBPS, or Trade Between Players System

      It\'s not really much of a survival game, IMO. I don\'t really see what the big deal with this suggestion is with regards to more of a \"survival feeling\", anyway...

      That wasn\'t quite what I had in mind, but I think I like that more.

      Subforums for Commonly Suggested/Planned Features

      Pretty much what it says in the title, have some subsections on the main suggestion forum for discussion of topics that come up frequently, or planned features. The reason being, at the moment there are tons of suggestions and from what I can tell no search functionality, so it is very...

      Starmade Does it Right

      And that\'s what we all want - StarMade as the best sci-fi sandox multiplayer game ever! Right? Exactly. It should just have a bunch of great sci-fi features that make sense, regardless of whether they\'ve been done before. I\'m reminded of this: Even in literature and art, no man who...

      Creatures

      Armies wouldn\'t get rid of space battles at all, I don\'t see where that line of reasoning comes from. Think of them as more like boarding crews, or a planetary invasion force.
