Shores of Hazeron - again! a free deep galactic MMO space game [Servers have been permanently shut - Games

When were Kalashnikovs added, and why? Did the space Russians petition for them to be added or something?

[QUOTE=PredGD;44589147]recently begun playing this, and what's wrong with 1-4 person empires? started up my own empire because I had no clue what I was doing and had no other empires to join, and it has been a lot more fun to play from the ground up compared to last time I played this. played it once because of a friend telling me to play. made my character, joined the Syndicate empire or w/e it was called with him but I couldn't find much fun in that. too much at once, I didn't understand what was going on. now that I've begun playing from the ground up of an empire there has been a lot more natural progression, which has made this a lot more fun.[/QUOTE] You weren't in the TS iirc, so that's something. In my opinion, going at Hazeron alone pretty much makes you irrelevant to the metagame. This pretty much changes the game from something like Eve to build colony, go to different star, build colony ad infinitum. Really, 99% of the fun in this game for me came from generating glorious tears with our shenanigans. When you take that out the game is nearly broken to the point of being able to unable to run without grinding my old computer to a halt (It could nearly max Crysis for fuck's sake) and even if you could run it comfortably the game is bugged as hell. When fighting wars (especially with Vaygr) it simply became an ordeal of "Who can throw enough exploits and drama to the other side so they ragequit". Then again, this game has a lot of potential and it has a lot of unique ideas/mechanics. All in all I've had fun being involved in almost every significant conflict in U3 for its final 2 years.

[QUOTE=Sgt Doom;44589596]When were Kalashnikovs added, and why? Did the space Russians petition for them to be added or something?[/QUOTE] The model has been in the game files for a while, but it was added into the production recipes in tribute to Kalashnikov's death.

So after one day of building stuff, got my first city maxed out pop-wise. Not intentionally, but metal was consumed so fast, that quite a lot of it is devoted to the mining of ore and smelting of metal. I know it probably looks like someone threw up spaghetti with chunks of something, but for the first things i've done in this game for a while, i'm moderately happy with it. Now that i've got all the basic resource sorted, I can probably plan my next cities a lot better. In particular, designing cities for maximum shield coverage. Probably worthless at T1, but later on it'll save a lot of time modifying layouts to account for it.

At least until I get laser guns.

Your cities look much better than my urban monstro[I]cities[/I].

Strawberry, big request, once you massive space station is finished, if you no intention of, can I command it? I love being captain of a station a lot more than that of a ship. Lot less black holes to fall in with a fucktarded crew of half wits.

Youd be sitting there, in one spot, perhaps turning a few degrees every year. Is that what you really want?

[QUOTE=lordoflard;44591626]Youd be sitting there, in one spot, perhaps turning a few degrees every year. Is that what you really want?[/QUOTE] I wouldn't be confined there. I'm just one for staying back at home, not going gallivanting off around the galaxy blowing up ships and sexing green women at space ports. Besides, you need someone to make sure the Russians aren't breathing down our necks.

Just wait until I build the concord... >:) You'll all shit bricks at its size.

waitwaitwait, YOUR ON FACEPUNCH CAKEBATYR? Oh and sorry bought the explosion of capping a ship earlier.

Well... this is awkward... [I]I guess I'll have to return the space station I stole from you...[/I]

What would be the ideal fuel capacity for a T1 rocket-powered spaceship? I'm just going to be using it for colonising other planets in the system; it's only weapons are 4 turrets just so it's not completely defenceless against newly-spawned pirates.

Can I join someones empire? I've had too much bad luck in playing alone, due to the fact that either my cities become lag fests of crappy planning and terrain or my industry just dies due to not being self sufficent enough :/

I KNEW this was gonna happen. Well, other than small details like that, how do you like the space station? I worked hard on it. [editline]20th April 2014[/editline] The problem is it's very hard to navigate the ship in the standalone designer, so I'm probably going to check all the issue on the station today and make the adjustments. Then we'll make it again.

I can't seem to buy any tools from my city; it says it's out of stock when I choose to buy a small amount after the initial soliciting, despite having tens of thousands of each of them in stock. I've got more than enough cash, as does my ship; had no problems buying other things.

Any issues login in or is it just me? I may be stuck in limbo.

[QUOTE=StrawberryClock;44595202]Any issues login in or is it just me? I may be stuck in limbo.[/QUOTE] Just you, I can get in fine.

Yeah, totes stuck in limbo. Posted in the "Stuck in limbo" thread so hopefully it won't be too long.

God speed clock.

It doesn't seem like it's possible to move between teleporters within the same ship. [editline]20th April 2014[/editline] Which is a pity, because it means the 3 teleporters in the space station are redundant. Looks like I'll have to phase out the extra ones within it for the next version.

What's the maximum amount of military buildings/flags I can have on an airless moon of 1800m with a population of 100 before I incur morale penalties? The system for it seems to have changed last time I played, and no new info on the wiki that I could find.

Is a character able to exist without an empire, could you in theory go lone wolf / pirate and BECOME RHE SCOURGE OF THE GALAXY
