I do love this game. Possibly because it reminds me so much of Earth and Beyond. Where most people leaving thoughtful comments have some good ideas that should be implemented, I think the more you would add to the game the more it'll become like EnB. For everyone else: Even though those bastards at EA shut down Earth and Beyond, a team of people are working to restore that great game. For those who have never heard of it, and those who have and miss playing, go check out www.enb-emulator.com . It has a free playable single and multiplayer, both of which are constantly being worked on.
Again, I love this game. Great job!

I feel like the game is a bit too loud. It is diffficult to listen to music at the same time, so add a volume bar. Other than that, its excellent

Please make a mute button that mutes EVERYTHING Actually i could barely hear the music at first because of all the explosions!

It would be nice with 2 bases a human and 2 alien that are multiplayer it should be heavily armed like a main station so you could raid bases with your friends

I wonder how long it took to make all those repeated comments?
Anyways, I really like this game and it's very addicting, but come on...12,800 kills for the last rank? I could understand if this was a console game with plot and hundreds of missions and more things to do than fly around, mine, and fight other people, but 12,800 kills is a bit much.

I have found some amazing games on here, however, this one is my all-time favorite without a shadow of a doubt. Thank you so much for putting out that download client. I love the game and can't wait to see where updates take this. 5/5 hands down

they have the radar non-fullscreen for a reason. it says in the instructions that when you press R it does a long range radar scan. It probably wouldn't be fair for ambushers and the such if you could see them wherever you went.

although i agree with mrmilsy about expanding mpszones, and i also think hiss duel mission idea is very good, it would implement your idea zakini but it hink in a much better way...it would be a choice thing, and a choice on a game is always a good idea, we all HATE o mute button but wed hate it more if the music was gone completely :p

zakioni you miss the point of multiplayer sectors...it wouldnt be any good really, if you were on the other end of that and were really strong how would you feel if there was no1 to fight cause you couldnt see any of them cause they all suck so much lol

What if you made it so that every area was multiplayer but only with people of the same team. You would still be able to fight real enemies (as in not AI) in the current multiplayer sectors. That way there'd be a bit more of a team spirit rather than the current 'lone ranger' feel. Also, why not make it so you can only see people of the same rank as you. I dare not go into a multiplayer area for fear of getting pwned so making use of the ranking system in this context would be good (by the way, I don't know if something like this is already implemented, if there is, sorry, I've never been to those sectors before). Oh and another idea of mine, why not make planets more useful? You could make it so that you can land on them to get a special item or hide from the enemy or something. I'm so full of ideas!

oh. there is a little error on the galaxy map. open your map. plot a coordinate. cancel it. try plotting again. *bzzt* no more galaxy map.

One quick comment on the lives debate; so long as you are respawning far enough from the battle, its ok. But if its even possible to get respawned 3-4 times in a row in the same/similar area, you may find yourself literally unable to escape through any means. Hyper, hopper, discs, overdrive. A simple combo of extractor, EMP and tractor can make you totally unable to escape.
This isnt a problem in and of itself, but currently the penalty for misjudging it is a total wipe of your account. This is SUCH a severe punishment that it will lend people towards simply not taking any risks. Perhaps you could set the punishment at 1/5 of all kills or 1/2. This would leave people more willing to engage in potentially fatal situations (a good thing?).
PS, LOVE the game, great work, and so much potential.

how about customizing/changing the controls
for example:
the v button for the selection button
how about buttons for previous/next weapon?
note:
i play using joypad. this suggestion will make my gaming experience better.

Eg; Skirmish Mission: go to multiplayerzone and kill 6 ships or 3 players without dying.
The server could be set to goad people into engaging more in the multiplayer element this way, and also to spread the load between MP battlefields.
I can also see the missions as a way of extending challenges. Eg, I have 300 kills and I accept a "Duel" challenge. Wherein the server holds me in a waiting room until someone else with 201-400 kills from the other team accepts a Duel challenge.
Team duels, etcetc.
Great game, but it NEEDS the multiplayer element to be expanded and emphasised, imho.
