can we please have insted of all roid sectors maybe like a cap ship graveyard full of blown up capships. cause like this war has been going on for a long time and stuff so there should be some part of space full of destoryed HAC hulls.

oh also maybe a super huge roid that has a bunch of holes in it like an ant colony

could you please like shut up instead. cause like this has been suggested lots of times before and stuff.

oh also your ugly and smell

I demand a giant swiss cheese roid as well!

I would also like a space McDrive Thru which gives fry widgets

Aside from horrendous spelling and grammar, I like the first idea. Not so much the second, as we already have stuff like that and there's no need to overdo it, but I really like the capital ship graveyard idea. Maybe there should be something like that in the GR-Deneb wormhole as there used to be basically a constant battle there. It would be difficult, new models and stuff, but I can see how that would be pretty cool.

In any other sci-fi movie, like Star Trek or Firefly/Serenity, if there's a huge blockade of ships then there's almost always heaps of broken ship scrap around. My only quarrel is that those examples were almost always over planets, so one could argue that they were in orbit.

Edit: is it possible to reuse ships' gibs and make them into space debris/asteroids?

Ship gibs look like crap when you see them in anything other than a bright, fast-moving explosion. (The HAC ones look only moderately ugly, but that's like.. 3 objects. A whole field of those would be.. probably unattractive).

Art assets like peytros describes are time-consuming to make. On the order of making an actual ship. Or at least a graphical variation on an actual ship.

I'm not ruling it out or anything, as I haven't in the previous umpteen threads that suggested the same thing. But part of the redux is doing everything we can to make the universe cooler, using the assets we already have. If I can do something like this, I will, I've wanted it far long than any of you have been playing VO :). But, as always, I have to spread my resources wisely.

incarnate spread your buttery resources all over making a cap ship graveyard plssssss

I actually really like peypey's second idea. The first thing I thought of when I read that was the seen in Matrix 2 when they are piloting their ship through the sewers, trying to fight off the sentinels. There would be some killer PVP chase battles. The only thing is, the roid would have to be huge and with multiple entry/exit points, many forks to help aid in escaping.

Man, if only we had something just like that! Oh, wait . . .



we do.

I feel like I may have linked to the wrong racetrack, but it's called Maze War, and we have it already.

What about...

One system, that's like that movie with dennis quaid going into the body, INNERSPACE!!!

Yea so you are Dennis Quaid, and you fly past blood vessels and shit and this other VO ship is the bad guy trying to kill you and get the thing that was injected or whatever, I think that was the plot anyway...

And you gotta fly through the heart and try not to get caught in one of the main arteries cuz that shit like is too pressurized.

You think you could make a system like that Inc?
