      Missiles and Large Ships vs. Small Ships

      I suppose my idea is pretty similar to torpedoes, the main difference being that a torpedo is a small drone with a suicide mission and my version of the missile isn't necessarily dissimilar to the existing missiles in game code terms once it's actually launched. I kind of like the idea of...

      Missiles and Large Ships vs. Small Ships

      Just from the title alone I suspect this is going to be a very controversial suggestion. I am a little worried that I’m stirring up something that’s mostly settled here. But I think my suggestion is pretty interesting, so… sorry in advance. For a long time, it’s bothered me that certain...

      Dev-Thread: New Shielding System in devlopment

      Fellas don't forget, this stuff is far from finished. The devs haven't even said they're replacing the shield system yet, we don't know for sure it will make it into the release build. It could just be an experiment.

      Custom Player Models

      On a somewhat related topic, what about custom player hat models? Maybe it's the TF2 player in me talking, but a boring 'ol square helmet just doesn't do it for me. You just can't do a proper military uniform without something like a proper peaked cap!

      Dev-Thread: New Shielding System in devlopment

      Sadly, although I think the new system is cool, you're right. I think the devs are thinking too much in terms of fleets and not enough about how pvp players will fight. These shields makes sense for taking down things like large AI controlled ships of the line, which will no doubt respond very...

      Dev-Thread: New Shielding System in devlopment

      I'd love to see a GUI with a schematic of your ship where you could find information relating to things like this new shield system. It would be a lot more immersive and interesting than just a list of numbers. I'll bet it wouldn't be hard to do either with that new outline/highlighting system...

      Let's settle the PVP vs PVE argument once and for all. Vote here: Which is better, PVP or PVE/RP? Good, now that that's settled, we can move on.

      I finally wrote a review of Starmade, after 1000 hours.

      I only told them to stop complaining on one point in particular, the alpha thing. Nobody should complain that their shit gets broken by an alpha update, that's true of any early access game, but of course there are always people that complain anyway. This isn't really that big of a deal though...

      I finally wrote a review of Starmade, after 1000 hours.

      Well my point is that they've already voiced these things. So they don't have to keep going on about it. Who's to say they can't vent if they really feel they must? Not me. But who's to say I can't be annoyed about their incessant pessimism, and say so? Not you.

      I finally wrote a review of Starmade, after 1000 hours.

      Relevant XKCD I don't think anyone here wants an echo chamber, that would be a disaster. But, guys, come on... we heard you the first time... and the second... and the third... and on and on. If the devs are going to listen they would have heard by now, it's getting old. The original post...

      Power update and the community content section

      Just make it an optional search filter. If you're looking for a logic circuit or an empty hull it won't affect you. If you're looking for a working ship, a way to filter outdated items would be handy.

      I think this whole discussion thread serves only to boost egos. None of us have played the update yet, none of us really knows what we're talking about. It's too soon to say for sure how the meta will evolve. I definitely feel we've move past constructive speculation into angry ranting in...

      Wow, it's almost as if... there's a penalty for prioritizing power production over all else! Can you imagine such a thing!?!

      How the hell is that thing supposed to turn though? Sounds like it'd be a good reactor but not a good ship.

      2017 Star Made Overview - Convincing a Friend to Play

      To be honest I wouldn't push too hard to get your friends to play until the game is into Beta. Until then things will be changing constantly and we all know how angry people get when something they like is removed or changed. I consider myself very lucky that the devs and I coincidentally seem...

      Have you tried Factorio? It sounds like that's more the sort of thing you wish you were playing when you decide to build a ship.
