yeah, only 1 more month isnt nearly enough time to properly take advantage of everything available. There should be like 2 more months of uni left! Dont rush things, people worked hard to get good gals that have resources and colonies that are going to take time to use to its fullest extent.

The problem with generalizations is that there is always exceptions. I myself could have taken many gals, instead i chose to take one, i made 8 stations, all andaman or higher within 2 days, i spent many billions in augging the bases, and i have spent many billions in making new base gear for them. I have only just now started to begin making back some money off my colony, and only just been able to start pumping my other two mediocre colony planets in order to get them to a point where i can make a substantial amount off selling them commodities. I have worked hard and I don;t want to end up with the uni cut drastically short resulting in severe loss on my part. |

I don't really plan on allowing universes to run for 4 months anymore since things get a little laggy and a little boring. Hopefully they should run somewhere between 2 and 3 months, but really I would like the players to determine this through the emperor runs. Hopefully I can get everything in place so there is an incentive for someone to run this uni.

Jeff - Have something on the forums for every emperor, like a little gold crown above their avvy.
Bring back the naming weapons things... but admins say stats Another good thing would be like maybe a Emperor's aug usable only by the emperor... just something to play around with taking 0 aug slots and minor stat increases to the ship. +5% to all maybe? |

Hopefully I can get everything in place so there is an incentive for someone to run this uni. If you want the unis to be shorter, you need to increase the rate at which colonies mature/grow... I had one of the fastest growing colonies in the game, if not the fastest, and I've only just hit 7 bill population on it... It took a month... For other colonies to mature from this point on, it'll take at least another 3 weeks... Doesn't leave much time for pumping commods to it... It only leaves time to make money through pessie pumping. |

I would have thought a new client is much more important to the game than the new classes.
The more stuff you can do client-side the less data has to be transfered and the less lag we get-- I think |

The reason we have so much lag is the colony purchase/selling processes and memory leaks.

These days, lag is from when memory is short and the server is doing a lot of DB calls for the threaded save which happens once an hour. Plus there's always general Internet lag that happens every so often.

like that guy said above, wouldn't a lot of the problems that we currently face be eliminated by this fabled Client 2? Everyone is very excited about when this wil finally come out and I bet a good number of people would prefer if you would look into completing that over some of this other stuff. To be honest I would really like to put off the change in class system as long as possible, but I was under the impression that the new client would make things easier for you guys to change too. Admittedly I dont know much about game coding, but from what ive heard it seems that client 2 does nothing but make things better for everyone involved and could maybe even draw more people to the game.
