    egosoft have consistently said that it will never be a multiplayer game. this topic has been aired loads of times on the forums.
    every player wants it to be converted, but we have always been told that it is too complex. I, for one, always live in hope of
    it becoming a multi player game.

    ps. nice to see u active again, albeit only occasionally

    the death penalty in question is respawn to last landed station.


    personally I think some of your quibbles were a tad pedantic. you should remember that a lot of the members and players don't have English as their first language. they have their native language plus several others, English included.


    as an Englishman myself, I am in awe of their linguistic abilities, so wouldn't presume to criticise their English grammar.


    just saying

    the black eagle is an ok ship.


    as you explore further you will find and be told of better ships especially for PvP.
    believe me the NPC's are nothing compared to PvP


    keep looking and asking. above all have fun.


    oh, and welcome :D

    I think Gunny made a valid point,,,,,,,,,,,,,,assuming he meant a re-install of the computer????


    OP is adamant that it is not the launcher, so all that is left (for me anyhow) is a re-install of my OS


    will have to just make do with the irritation for time being


    cheers

    ROFLMAO,,,,,,,,,,,,,,a tax on suicides ,,,,,,,,,what most world governments would give for that.


    at least some differing opinions came out of this topic, so all is not lost. hopefully???

    I have to say, that since the new launcher was introduced, I have been continually crashing to desktop.


    a little while back I was in the nomad hunt, doing fairly well, then abruptly crashed to desktop. the launcher had stopped working.

    @all


    I still think that everyone is missing the point.


    when a player buys expensive ship, expensive and better weapons, expensive and better equipment, then gradually his rank rises and he cannot hide.
    I view the bank as a place to save hard earned credits for the next expensive buy.


    come on people what is the problem........................really!!!


    just sayin


    Ray OK

    incidentally,,,,if the people you are referring to hide their credits in the banking system, they cannot hide their rank once they have a decent ship and weapons and equipment.


    with that in mind I, for one, do not see the problem!!!!!!


    cheers

    in fact, I advised a newbie to do just that, so that he could go about his business unmolested.
    doesn't work now though

    I was playing from scratch today , and was accused of hiding money in bank, all u have done is incite idiots to attack any low ranking player.


    not the result you wanted methinks.

    ps
    the miscreant was a forum member hiding behind an anonymus char, which he then deleted. where is the honour????


    just sayin

    I also picked up a couple of typos and the odd omission, but on the whole, the whole presentation looks good.


    well done forlon, the guide should prove very helpful.


    I am pleased to have been a part of it.

    kate has produced a boy.


    rats, kings for the next three reigning monarchs.


    I was hoping she would have a girl.


    our best reigning monarchs have always (nearly) been queens, was hoping for another as the rules of succession have been changed


    oh well,,,,,,,sigh


    Ray OK

    the info that you have received is good.


    remember that bombers come in to destroy the base, so you concentrate on taking down the rogue npc's and avoiding the platforms at first. after the base is down there are several other ships to help with the platforms.


    the beginning isn't really too difficult, even with the basic ship.


    cheers
