General Discussion / How exactly do I beat this ship
« on: May 13, 2023, 05:41:20 PM »
So I was exploring around, and on the top left corner of the map I found a system with some kind of station in it. And when I tried to explore it ,there is one ship defending it. I thought ok , easy enough. But this ship has some ability to take control of my ships. So I tried to overwhelm it with a bunch of smaller ship but it didn't work. And then tried again with my capital and cruisers and it didn't work. Anyone know any good tactic against this one ?

General Discussion / unidentified fleet?
« on: May 03, 2023, 06:53:11 PM »
I am currently exploring the map, and I noticed that there is this unidentified fleet which moves extremely fast around my fleet. I used interdiction pulse which kinda slow it down and it just flew away. And this unidentified  fleet is really really close to my fleet. Which usually should be able to be seen what faction it belongs to, but it remains as bunch of triangles. At one point it flew over my fleet and I still don't know what kind of fleet it is.
Is this a UFO kinda thing ?

General Discussion / What's the point of restoring a ship ?
« on: September 04, 2019, 08:48:47 PM »
I am just wondering, I salvaged a Paragon with 2 (Can't remember clearly) d mods, I thought I would restore it and only to find out it is actually cheaper to buy a new Paragon than restoring the current one.
Is there any reason to restore a damaged ship at all ?

General Discussion / So..I lost...WTF?
« on: December 15, 2016, 05:53:13 PM »
Ok..
I am playing as pirate faction, and my faction at the moment is having close pact with Sindarian.
And I am actually doing well for a change , when I finally took over the last planet/base that was hostile to me
A screen pops up and say Sindarian has won..but my pirate faction has pretty much owned all the planets in the galaxy.
The only planets left 2 Sindarian owned planet which I was planning on took over once all the hostile factions are gone.
So my question is ....is it possible for pirate faction to win the game at all ?

General Discussion / Pirate faction weak by default ?
« on: December 13, 2016, 06:36:43 PM »
So..I decided to try to play as pirate faction ...and it is really hard..but I think it is hard is because seems like pirates are weak by default.
Let's say I am trying to take over a size 3 base, I have a size 5 fleets. And enemy response fleet would actually take me out.
This never happenes when I play as other faction.

And that's not just it..I find it difficult to attack other fleet even if enemy fleet are a lot smaller than mine. Even if I win I would loose quite a bit of my fleet which makes it quite hard to save up and buy a better ship.

While playing other faction if my ships got disabled during combat, I usually get it back to repair. But as pirate, they just gone..I have to
keep on loading if battle goes south..and believe me..they do that a lot. Which didn't happen when I play as other faction.
So..my question is pirate for some reason are just weak ? maybe ship status got lowered or something ?
Oh yeah..anyway to make money easier ? I mean battling is not profitable . And other factions just attacks me if I am trying to do some
delivery mission for some money .

General Discussion / Installer has security risk
« on: January 09, 2014, 08:22:37 PM »
Hi, I came back here after seeing a new version of the game is avaible.
After downloading the installer , my Norton kicks in and says it is a threat and then deleted the Installer file.
I look up in the log, it has something to do with Ws.Reputation.1
and this is what it says in the Norton site

WS.Reputation.1

Systems Affected:
Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows NT, Windows Server 2003, Windows 2000
Behavior
WS.Reputation.1 is a detection for files that have a low reputation score based on analyzing data from Symantec’s community of users and therefore are likely to be security risks. Detections of this type are based on Symantec’s reputation-based security technology. Because this detection is based on a reputation score, it does not represent a specific class of threat like adware or spyware, but instead applies to all threat categories.

The reputation-based system uses "the wisdom of crowds" (Symantec’s tens of millions of end users) connected to cloud-based intelligence to compute a reputation score for an application, and in the process identify malicious software in an entirely new way beyond traditional signatures and behavior-based detection techniques.

I am just wondering what is going on ?
