Well it's been renewed for a second series. Although the final episode hasn't aired in the UK yet so I have no idea what this 'twist' is you speak of.

Not sure how I feel about the fact that two was created by Wesley Crusher. That's just all kinds of disturbing.

Yes the big problem with these 'season pass' paid for updates isn't just the cost. It's that you don't know what you're buying. Yes planetary landings on the least interesting planets. Well it's a start I suppose, but what else? If I'd bought this 'season' as a season pass I'd be seriously annoyed, ...

I doubt it stands any hope of being regarded in the same league as firefly, which has taken on near mythical levels of awesomeness in some circles, However it has the potential to be not bad at all. It's by some of the minds behind the stargate franchise, which is either a very good, or very bad thi...

This whole thread is remarkably stupid.


I approve.

Good.

From what I've seen of the Diamond back and Courier, I think they would have been very handy for me. Six months ago, when I was starting the game. Now however I've worked my way up to an Asp and a Vulture, (and a cobra, and a type 6) and the new ships both look like they both represent something of ...

Indeed. Those are some top quality planks.

"In a surprising move Ireland today voted yes to renaming it's capital 'Nigel'. President Higgins speaking in Nigel today said 'Well if that's what the electorate wants that's what the electorate gets.

I love the first 30 seconds of that piece of music.

Great now I want to watch serenity again...

Quite insulting to all the work put in by the developers, in my opinion. Sorry if that's harsh. No it doesn't sound harsh. It does however sound ridiculous. Observe represents a section of the market they haven't catered for that's all. If you want a 5 door car it's not an insult to the makers of 3...

Suggestions from the galactic core-

Try plotting it in both the Fastest and Economical settings to see if that makes a difference?

Don't plot the route just target the destination and jump to it.

Jump somewhere else on route then try to 'replot' from there.

Well two of those three just ceased to be a problem

Why?

Just honestly curious. Withdrawing always seemed like a very bad Idea economically to me, so I just wondered what it is about the whole thing your don't like.

Also silicon Valley is where all the empires super weapons are developed.

Both are science fiction Both are set on a spacehip. (OK one is a massive alien battleship and the other is a clapped out old freighter but still) Both feature a crew of criminals (OK not entirely in Firefly, but partially) Both feature an oppressive government Both feature the crew to a greater or ...

The views were pretty good in Derby. Clear sunny skies until about 10 minutes after the maximum after which a layer of thin cloud rolled in that would normally end any stargazing, but in this case just allowed us to see it perfectly with the naked eye. All in all just about perfect. A couple of my s...

Plus it's nice to be able to see behind you from time to time, like you could in every other Elite game up until this one.

Maybe I'm wrong. But it feels like EA only really likes and understands fast paced action games. Any franchise they buy they try to turn into a fast paced action game, even when it worked perfectly well in a 'slower' form. When it was announced that Lucasarts were shutting down and that Disney had a...

That sounds like the 'ghost ship' mission after the two Garden of Kedesh missions. You're up against a ship that's able to userp control of capital ships, but can't control strike craft. The solution is, I recall is fairly straightforward- Send in a bunch of scouts on evasive to distract the defendi...
