UnderLord Posted September 1, 2005 Report Share Posted September 1, 2005 Man this derek guy sure can pump out alot of games huh? But anyhow..... It'd be cool if you could like start off in a small cruiser and when you get the money upgrade to a better cruiser and so forth a game that i'v played (web based) space merchants lets you do this. i know this would be hard to code and all but its just a suggestion for future UC (insert expansion name here) series games ( i know UC is part of BCG ect ect ect but to me UC is totally a new game) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supreme Cmdr Posted September 1, 2005 Report Share Posted September 1, 2005 Universal Combat Special Edition, due out in Feb/March 2007 or thereabouts, will be the last title in the series. It will basically be like a UCAWA Gold (which I don't plan on doing) but with lots of bits. My focus going forward is on UCO (2006), KnightBlade (2007) and BCNG (2008). What you're asking about is already in the design for UCO since you basically start from scratch and progress along a career path. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no BCO. That was renamed to UCO (Universal Combat Online). quote:Originally posted by Ben Zwycky: It was just shifted to the next-gen Xbox. There will also be PC version later on.

John Prezioso Posted September 1, 2005 Report Share Posted September 1, 2005 Dagnabbit. Since I'm not a MMO kinda guy, I have to wait 'til 2007(!) for Knightblade?! and 2008(!!) for BCMG? I can't do it - I'm gonna crack! Oh, tartar sauce! Flaming fish sticks! (Please excuse my language...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Psirat Posted September 1, 2005 Report Share Posted September 1, 2005 Yeah. Well, I'm kind of quiet. Still, considering I've been playing since BC3K v2 and that EVERY significant upgrade I've done to my computer has been for a Battlecruiser title, I AM rather sick of being a "cadet".

Matchoo Posted September 6, 2005 Report Share Posted September 6, 2005 Something I think that might be cool is the ability to buy a missile that doesn't have any explosives(or a minimal amount), and then be able to fill that missile using minerals that you mine on the planets. Different combinations of minerals would have different effects (e.g. Some more powerful than others, some work like dirty bombs, some work better against shields, and some just don't work at all ).

Sort of like Alchemy in Space, eh? Cool, but I just don't see it. The Battlecruiser games are more about hardware, stats and tactics, IMHO. (All right. I admit it.

I think it was called terminus i think its a dead game now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/QB]Not dead yet. http://www.terminuspoint.com/ It is a lot of fun. But it isn't Battlecruiser. You only got that sort of freedom in the civilian careers. BC is much more a military simulation. To implement something like that... it would be a different game. Coding aside, it would take a lot of work to get the game balance right. Anyway, there are still people playing Terminus, in a multiplayer environment. Knock yourself out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knock yourself out After i posted that one about terminus i decided i really wanted to play it again hopped back on but no one online when i got on = so that makes it no fun the single player is fun though. I remember the first time i played single player i launched from a dock and suddenly there was a pirate on my tail telling me to drop my cargo or be killed....ahhh the joys. My name on there is UnderLord. I think i named my craft StarCraft a talon ship i believe or eclips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psirat Posted September 12, 2005 Report Share Posted September 12, 2005 I was wondering if the community was still alive. The forums there seem to indicate it is, but I haven't tried connecting (the game is not currently installed). Check their forums out, maybe they mention when people play.
