Hi To any moderators and admin, just throwing in my feedback, perhaps it's time to add in more factions into the official campaign instead of the 3 campaign factions, and setting new timed events when new factions will emerge after the player had progress to a certain point of the campaign. There's also a need for interaction of faction quest and diplomacy, taking over stations and siege or  blockade of a space port or planet, next on would like to discuss on the actual battle of planets and ports where various factions would send out fleets of vessels to aim on destroying various factions if they're doing really well, that'll open up to open expansion of rebels and uprising, actual siege of planets or ports would be the garrison of the port scurrying whatever is available in the shop or fleet menu to face the blockading fleet. That's all I would like to add for now :-) would look forward to see if any mods would take my suggestion into consideration.

Hi forum, would like to add more for suggestion, fleet having the ability to merge into a larger unit  creating more possibilities for larger fleet.  
Fleets commanded by 2 or 3 fleet commanders which would make ai fleets take on multiple tactics like splitting fleet based on objectives of each commander,an example would be : commander 1 focusing upon capturing and holding of nav points while the other commander would be focusing on engaging the enemy.  That would take a long time integrating into the program's software though :-S?

I think that's a bit off topic in this particular thread... But until then:

Exerelin is what you're looking for, more factions emerge to fight for a sector of multiple systems

Also as far as official campaign goes... That's likely the focus for the next update (a few more months?), until then this is all we get

Hi Rayu, welcome to the forum!

Unfortunately you misread the purpose of this thread, it is not to post your own suggestions. Please open your own thread for that in this subforum.
Let me just say that there are many plans to expand the campaign, and until they are realized there are different mods you can use, like gunny said.

i dont know if it was brought before but i wish there was more zoom out...with mods and some vanila weapons the weapon ranges exceed you vision and you can either painfully scroll the map to see what you hit (while losing sight on whats right ahead of you causing you to friendly hit your allies or get flanked) but some weapons have ranges even longer than your max scroll! so you can either put it on auto fire and hope for the best or use the weapon ineffectively.

Hello shdo! Unfortunately this thread is not meant to post suggestions, but to avoid making frequently made ones again.
Concerning your idea, yes, it was brought up several times. In fact, I will add it to the OP. Here's an answer from the dev:

As far as increasing the zoom level specifically, that's not likely - we're building the game around playing at those zoom levels, as far as both the graphics (the "Supreme Commander" problems show up faster than one might expect) and the actual combat mechanics. But other improvements to help with general tactical awareness - such as improving the usefulness of the radar ribbon, for example - are certainly on the table.

Good, all typos must be found and destroyed.

"Phaosphoros"

May or may not be intended as is, but it looks like a mis-spelling of Phosphorus.

It's an alternate spelling of Phosphorus. Also, if you want to report typos, there is a thread for it in the Bug Reports & Support subforum:
http://fractalsoftworks.com/forum/index.php?topic=4235.0

That's probably a better place for this than cluttering the Frequently Made Suggestions thread.

A 'reroll ship name' button when you own a ship and want to change the name but are too lazy to come up with a new one.  ::)
