Possible OE return

I had one of the largest empires and I was a week away from a skat I think you need to have a clean start, at the moment all my colonies and stuff don't mean anything when I haven't got the game to play

I just don't want to grind up the old way lol

Just to clarify... Although I mention I dont want to think I lost time before ( if xp is reset), or money ( if lose IWS hulls or BP), I am not saying I dont want any change or reset, as example I think the colonies or SS could be cleared partially...

I agree with Steve that all time and money without OE id nothing, but Steve, invest new time and money without devs.... Is not the same?

Regards,

OJ

Grinding is good, and it would give us a chance to squabble and fight amongst ourselves in clippers and light cruisers. However, given that Lors could be lurking about, ready to put a spanner in the works Id like to have a big ship.

I understand the dev problem oj, there is a chance Brandon may come back but I think he might need some sort of payment for it as no one can expect him to work for free but that will need to be between Paul and him, we need to get in new players and keep them we need to scrap all colonies and ss, I spoke with texhomeboy and he wants it the same as it was at the end as it will take him to long to get back to where it was. I've spoken with Phil and he wants a full reset to help noobs and to give the game some of the fun back

I could have full exp and wouldn't be able to construct a Skat if everything but exp was reset.

Did you threaten to Splode anyone who voted against keeping xp ray both have ther merits

Yes. Yes I did.

Hmm Ray you need to remember diplomacy is the key, guns won't get you everything.

I disagree.

Thoth ask the dR that question

I forgot about that piece of daylight robbery, hmmm. I hope OE is coming back cause now freaking Vendetta won't work on Android, Traveller has never worked and the rest are rubbish. At this rate I'm going to have to do handyman stuff and converse with the wife and sprogg.

You don't want to be doing that mate

Yes!!

I am in support of keeping XP, but what the heck, either way is fine.

What is the est. release date?

Ten days according to Paul, not sure if that's iPhone as well, forums and websites next week.

Yes!! Ahead of schedule

Can't wait, even if we don't get XP it will be awesome to see the ships improve. Think Paul should lower the rank on the Rapier.

Have mentioned Paul anything about implement any of the modifications suggested when we make the brainstorming before OE end? I remember things like limit faction members number, maybe look for advertisement in the game to reduce cost,....

I'm hoping if he brings back the website and forum we can get some input, but I'd say get the game up and running and then see where we are.

Yup. Ah, can't wait I did not think we would ever get it back...

I've been hoping for this since I realised the utter dross that's out there, so much crap. Fingers and toes crossed people.

Mhm, there are 20-30 clones of the same darned game on the App Store - Haypi Kingdom, Galaxy Empires, etc.

They all suck.

I'm hoping he's gonna do a port to android, as he's thinking of rewriting the iPhone client. Vendetta is good but the mobile client is flawed in a big way.

My vote went to a restart with 0 xp 100c and a shuttle and a randomisation of planetary resources and a 600ly jump limit. I had a number of IWS colonies and ship hulls and was HCE class I think but that's all just bollocks, the fun in the game is about playing it not what you accumulate. If we keep our XP then we will be flying big ships in a couple of weeks, far better to all start in a shuttle with zero xp, 100cr and a bit of attitude.

I also think factions should be limited to 10 or 15 people maximum. That would leave people's alts out there spying and pirating or trading etc and mean no one faction could dominate and encourage more wars. Sure big factions like a team would form CW type alliances but when the factions are separate egos get in the way and alliances split and more wars. The most peaceful time in OE was when Dark and Iron had split the galaxy between them and everyone else was too small to challenge them.

Hey friends, see a lot of names I recognize - brings back fond memories.

My opinion, is to start over in OE - what did we have 30-50%+ of the good planets taken?
And it would be more interesting to new players, if we didn't overwhelm them.
Besides, I gave all my money away, and had 4 of my best ships destroyed during the
shut down period in OE

Special hello to MG - miss those gummies
