Space?

[Cocio]

Asked before..
Will we be able to have our own ships?


(will there be sound in space? )

I have seen that we might be able to call in reinforcements and bomb the crap out of a place, but I wanna be the one that does the bombing

[O'Neill]

being able to just fly around space would be awesome

[Nephthys]

yea we've heard about bases on a planet, but maybe your mothership is your base in orbit around a planet

[Lordanubis]

If included at all I hope that ships are difficult to acquire and/or unrecoverable when destroyed. This is due to combat balancing issues. Having ships that can just transport you through space is fine. But if ships can be bought easily and can be repaired every time they're damaged the game would turn into a:

Jaffa Chat Channel: SGC on P45536
Jaffa Chat Channel: I'm on it
*boom* (aerial bombardment wiping out any characters there)
Jaffa Chat Channel: Area clear

And of course, that would suck

[O'Neill]

lol yes i agree, maybe ships wiht minimal weapons so its fair or something.

[Nephthys]

well perhaps you can only build ships and they consume MASSIVE amounts of every resource therfore only a strong strong player, or an alliance could afford one, and thats only making the ship able to fly, then you have to build weapons onto it, and intergrate a shield generator, that you either bought or made also.

[O'Neill]

but i can see this game having a certian team owning it always... hmm hopefully no hackers

[Nephthys]

well that would be good forcing other alliances to form coalitions to take out the big alliance, then there would be a massive power vacume, can you just imagine all the secret meetings planning the first attack against the massive alliance

[O'Neill]

lol i bet there are already clans just plotting together right now!

[LORd_RiVE]

or only no weapon ships..like the Tel'taks...
you can fly with it, you can transport friends/ clan members to another planet, but you can not shoot anythong..
or just cloak your ship and go somewhere in secret

[Nephthys]

i wanna join a goa'uld clan

i wanna be chief scientist to a System Lord lol designing the plans for our first mothership and kull armour

[mandalorian]

well i got an idea why dont you be able to build anti aircraft turrets

[Nephthys]

yea, that would work, and they should be less expensive, but still so expensive that you have to be an established player to build them.

[mandalorian]

and how would the money system work for bye shield gens and anit aircraft turrets becasue it would be confusing wouldnt it

[Nephthys]

well naquadah would be currency and a fuel i suppose.

how would that work how about someone could be able to mine naquadah for the shop fuel and may be you could get moeny for doing missions or some thing

[O'Neill]

yer you should be able to defend your own base, maybe ships without weapons would be best, but then you can call in an air strike if your bogged down, so you cant destroy whole bases just by sitting in your ship but they can helpo

[mandalorian]

how about there should be cargo ships and attack ships one for of course transporting cargo and the other main purpose would to attack things

[O'Neill]

yer you can only piolet the cargo ships, the main battle ships are only for arial attacks when your on the ground to help you out if your in trouble

you shouldn't be able to destroy a whole base in a matter of minutes... cause people would do that for no reason..

[Nephthys]

i think that ships should be able to attack, but like i said you would have to like buy more than one weapon you would have to have like 100 ,and these would cost a lot, for an effective strike to be made.

as to the naquadah, there could be naquadah and...trinium, you can mine both and trade them, so like 1 trinium = 2 naquadah and the price would fluctuate.

[O'Neill]

i just dont wanna see people setting up for ages for there base and being wiped out just for a laugh. that would suck, maybe we can all live in peace?... yer right lol

[Spaceman]

This game is going to rule

[O'Neill]

i know, it may be years away but it will be the best!

[Nephthys]

well iff they set up for ages they would probably be able to withstand the attack of an ariel assult, and maybe there are differetn levels of bases, and eventually ending in an underground base which would be heavily shield and therfore almost impossible to be hit by ariel assaults and only destroy ed by ground attacks, however these cost a lot as well.

[O'Neill]

i just dont think its fair to sit in your ship happy and just destroy random plannetary base's for fun. you should have to do it on the ground with assitance from your ship
