    Cargo haulers will probably get nerfed

    Test, even if we could all sober up and go in the same direction for months at a time, could not control or put a stranglehold on a market. We have 19,000 members. The town I live in is about the same size. There is no way it could even hope to control even one strategic resource or area...

    Constellation Taurus

    I find the Vulcan to have almost no character. It’s a big box. The Starrunner I will give you, but the Corsair is even uglier than I am. I find the Connie to have a lot of character. Yes, it could be tweaked a bit, but it’s a working person’s ship, like the YT-1300s were. If you put the...

    Cargo haulers will probably get nerfed

    After today’s ship talk with John Crew and his discussion of the Merchantman’s cargo, plus the revelations of the Kraken privateer, I think we need to re-evaluate our expectations on the cargo capacity of these bigger freighters. Kraken Privateer is the big dog flying mall here at 1700 USD...

    3.8 Release date?

    Guys and gals, if what I heard from citizencon is accurate, they have replaced almost every game asset in 3.8. Station interiors, planets, stuff on the planets, etc. of course it will be a buggy mess. From my understanding, the first patches are ALWAYS a buggy mess. I would expect a total...

    Another two. Pledge award - an incentive provided by CIG to people who provide a certain amount to back the game. Please note that in some jurisdictions, including the US, a pledge is not considered a purchase, and as a result, you lose many customer protections normally available to someone...

    umm, would it not be better to have 4 people, each one having a prospector? How does this make economic sense? Are NPCs going to be that cheap?
