Topic: Things You'd Like To See In OP

What again are plasma bolts and how do they function aswell does ECM/ECCM effect them?

plasm bolts are direct fire plasma's.  You lose some damage potential but they become direct fire.  I don't remember the ECM/ECCM effects on them, I didn't use a plasma race much when I played SFB.

Originally Posted by marstoneOh another wish on my list would be AWR for the Fed ships.  For those who haven't got SFB, AWR is an APR that puts out warp power.  It can not be used for movement but can be used for any other use of warp power (i.e. load photons)  The fed power curve falls behinds alittle without them.

What would this do to Fed. Ships give them slightly more power to arm their weapons and tractors?

Well, it doesn't always give more power, a fed ship has an APR uipgrade to ships without APR.  Then the AWR refit, changes the APR to AWR so they can use the power on photons (photons can only be loaded with warp power, thus the more you need for photons the less speed you can have).

I don't think I would like this especially on overloaders.I do like the plasma bolt idea being a direct fire weapon instead of seeking more like SFC3 plasmas.

I thought there was already a shuttlebomp.

Another wish list....I vote for all !...most of which #8 would cover...send eric another barrage of inquiries...its been awhile prob no-one of importance would care ....... its core engine is how old again?

Eric doesnt have anything to do with it anymore...

I thought it was still Eric's call ... that carrott has been dangling for so long

It's sort of evolved from a dangling carrot to an obscene gesture from an angry male prostitute.  Not to be negative but I sort of doubt we'll ever be given the code for OP.

Another thing that could be nice is more then 3 players on a side.  It would be nice to use SFC to play out rounds from a game like Fed & Empire in a gaming group, but to play it right, each ship should have a captain, thus more then three per side would be a nice add.  Computers are faster and more powerfull now, it should be able to handle it.

[obvious suggestion]Well, one could always track down Kenneth Yeast (former Vice CEO Taldren USA) and ask/beg him for it, or a workable version of it, to allow us to patch/otherwise edit the game ...[/obvious suggestion]

JM.

In all fairness...

People sorta doubted we'd get the directory servers...

People sorta doubted we get the server code...

People sorta doubted we'd get the EAW code...
 
People sorta doubted we'd get the SFC3 directory servers...

People sorta doubted we'd still be playing OP after all these years...

And surely neither last nor least...

People sorta doubted whatever Frey is going to announce...

Doubt is never in short supply round these parts...

Good point; well made.  (Holy Hell, did we really get the EAW code?)

This is the only video game, Star Trek or otherwise, that has kept me interested for so long and in such depth.

This is a game?

My crew will be crushed...

Got SFC1 11/18/98 for my birthday.

Some time ago, RocketRod enquired about buying the code.  I've only seen one reply, and it wasn't inspiring.  There are a few of us die-hards willing to pony some cash.  Considering the age of the software, it might be affordable.  It's the Paramount licences nobody could afford.
