    Beta Galactic Artifact - Release C

    Ok. Another idea Ive been mulling over. Since you have thought of it before, you might already have a plan for it... this is just my two cents. Here goes: Some math to set it up: All sectors: (1x1 = 1) 3^7 x 3^7 = 2187 x 2187 = 4782969 Zoomed out once: (3x3 = 9) 3^6 x 3^6 = 729 x 729 =...

    Beta Galactic Artifact - Game Balance

    QUOTE Is lucky starts exclusively defined as "I'm close to the artifact" or is also "I got a good break finding stuff" ... I have found 3 types of lucky starts. 1) Start in a very dense place. 2) Start close to the artifact (as you mentioned) 3) Pickup a $$$ artifact in the first few minutes...

    Beta Galactic Artifact - Release C

    After post on: Galactic Artifact - Game Balance Playing that many times gave me some new ideas I dont remember hearing on the forums. Treat these with the usual might-be-a-good-idea-but-also-could-be-a-complete-waste-of-time disclaimer. 1) An arrow pointing to the side that has the most...

    Beta Galactic Artifact - Game Balance

    Here it is, but I see a problem with the data that fusion_power mentioned... lucky starts... CODE lvl 10 - won 7:55 - 12:20 6:19 - 9:10 5:53 - 9:58 lvl 9 - won 14:22 - 20:55 6:48 - 12:15 12:49 - 17:22 lvl 8 - won 9:38 - 16:46 7:52 - 14:10 5:10 - 11:47 lvl 7 -...

    Beta Galactic Artifact - Release C

    Well. I got 2 ideas. 1) What if the artifact could stay on the planet after the first person got it. So that anyone playing has to get it, go inactive for a few minutes or log off before the next 'round' continues and we get a new artifact. It will make the most sense after you display a...

    Beta Galactic Artifact - Release C

    ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// My method. Probably similar to yours Early game: (When most of your upgrades are still low level) Don't pick up any Artifacts until you have found a shop. Don't worry too much about getting the most from a single...

    Beta Galactic Artifact - Release C

    Ohh yeah. From now on, if someone else is on, ill just collect money out of the way. Also I noticed you fixed the bug where if you try to quit an offline game and say no, it re-randomizes your ship and the artifact. (Oh, and I think if you log into the server from an older release, you get...

    Beta Galactic Artifact - Release B

    None that I can see, and I hope that you'll get better IRL. On a side note, I just beat 2 games in the 10 to 15 minute range... With version 317. (But they might have been 'lucky starts'.)

    Beta Galactic Artifact - Release B

    Yeah, I notice that now that you mention it. Not as bad as a slow mouse select/move in a thick area (EG: 555-5555).

    Beta Galactic Artifact - Release B

    One real quick new bug. When you are fueling up, it keeps selecting the first artifact in the list. Then if you don't pay attention, pressing the enter key a few times, you will sell all your artifacts. I like the colors for artifacts though. It doesn't seem like you did the auto-select "no"...
