If abyss has empty background map, would it have empty background for combat?
ships move a bit slower.
. Your storytelling is getting better and better, keep working on that and SS might get close to the likes of Homeworld regarding plot quality.
sometimes I just want to get into the action, starting out with only an Apogee or destroyers in that case is still too slow.
So some kind of start with a decent heavy/medium cruiser and a light or two, some escorts and a supply train. for when you just want to get into the action, try out some new things or whatever.
I don't understand why there's "limits" being put on player skills at all for what are mediocre or moderate skills. If a player goes on a serious drone killing spree and spends all that time capping and restoring Radiants, the player should be rewarded, not cut short. This weird obsession with "balancing" a single player game, let a lone a sandbox game's endgame, makes no absolute sense.
It's one thing to create skills that enable certain playstyles. This skill does not enable any playstyle. In fact, it prevents you from doing what it's trying to do. I see this as an overarching problem. I see this in the latest hotfix.
It needs to stop.
Nothing that has been "balance hotfixed" needed fixing. This is a sandbox. Let players build their sandboxes, please Alex.
