Formerly known as Imperium Galactica 3, quality game :)

It's kind of a mix of homeworld and a single-player Eve.

www.nexusthegame.com

Playing through single player atm, but it's getting pretty hard. Has full multiplayer options, I managed to pick it up for £9.99 in the play.com sale but it's back full price now :)

Anyone else got it and fancy a game?

I got Tribes Vengence the other day, that's a fun game...

I downloaded the demo 3 months ago, but never actually installed it and deleted it recently. I'll wait to see it at SG, if I come. :wink:

Regarding EVE, fear my 21 million skillpoints. My character's head may explode soon! :o

Bah 21million, I've been less than active at making sure I always have a skill training so my 12month character only has about 11mil or something.

Still he manages to kill people pretty well :P

I think Ribbo has almost 20mil....

not that much im afraid, i took a month and a bit off and im only 12.9 now, your catching me auman, im maxing out my learning skills at the moment so i should accellerate away from you a little, i would have been over 14m by now prolly if i hadnt of had that time off.

oh glimmer, i see you log on occasionally but your still an npc corp, you not an active player anymore?

(dont see midgens char log on anymore)

i've also got a 8m production charecter and a 5m frig specialist.

I play solo, hence the NPC corp. I'm not very active at the moment, waiting for Dreadnaughts or Tech II Battleships to be released. Got a mountain of ISK, but nothing to spend it on!

Is that an offer to allow me to break my spiffy new Mega Pulse IIs in on your egg? :D

Hey rib just remember he can't hit what he can't target... and any guns you can loot will be worth a fortune :P

i'll just wait till they nerf the mega pulse II's and the bottom falls out of the market :D

How about the relative merits of shield shredding energy pulses vs precision device-targeting lasers in an anti-siege laser situation?

Damn thread hi-jackers, pfff

Interesting question Mid, there is at the moment a rather long thread on whether Megapulse lasers are overpowered and need a nerf....

Siege weapons won't be out for a few patches though I think...

I was actually staying on topic, talking about Nexus, you missed the point of my post ;)

Just a rather small 40 page thread with 800 replies! :wink:

Anyway, there is nothing wrong with them! Projectiles and Hybrids are fine too! Missiles are evil, but then I use them too - they're the only thing that can hit a fking pissant frigate in a universe where real-life physics is ignored to make frigate pilots happy in their otherwise unhittable ships. :?

oh frigates can be hit.. believe me :D it's all down to getting a lock on them and having good enough tracking/range to hit em..

it's like me running around a tank at 1 metre and expecting him to be able to hit me with his turret.
