wtf, I died trying to protect some ally, but now I have my new ship I can't leave the planet I respawned on, tried mouse wheel and the - key but it just zooms out to the highest point on the planet but won't leave it; any suggestions?
dunno if that's a joke but how?^*AlphA*^ wrote:

lol yeah, i basically thought it would just stop at the centre of the galaxy or somethingVilham wrote:
so wait. in a game that states it has no ending you thought there would be an end?Ultimatrox wrote:
yeah, was actually a dissapointment to see it was just an easter egg instead of the end of the game but now i like how it isTheAussieReaper wrote:
Anyone made it to the centre of the galaxy yet?
I had the exact same problem, just that instead of dying I willingly went to a planet and I could still use weapons. I tried everything but eventually had to just manually close the game (because for whatever fucking reason you can't save the game when you're viewing a planet). 3 hours of gameplay gone.Peter wrote:

I also can't select tools like my weapons or the abduct ray.
if you pause it and leave it for awhile it goes awayHavok wrote:

You can select in the bottom left the marker to show where you've been, and that can show you where to wormhole leads after you go through it if your getting confused which one goes where.Flaming_Maniac wrote:
How the hell do you find your way around via wormholes without trial and error? I've had quite a lot of fun up to this point, but if I'm limited to a relatively small region in space because I don't want to be wandering around dropping bread crumbs...that's pretty dumb.
I don't see how to use that function to see where a wormhole leads after you've gone through it?TheAussieReaper wrote:

I made a new game on easy and instead of being extremely hostile I took the nicest road possible and I am having alot more fun with itVilham wrote:
tbh i think its worth it, its a single player game and yet im still playing it more than a week after release. its also renewed my love in space rts games and now ive reinstalled imperium galactica 2 and homeworld 2 which i have been playing a lot.
I did the exact same thing (is this the second time I've done the same thing as you?) and I agree it's fun. I wanted to play spore to take over a galaxy, not get constantly bombarded by pirates/biodisasters/naturally-pissed-off-empires and easy mode helps me do that.Mutantsteak wrote:

I hated how I had to fight off hundreds of ships off by myself (allies don't count, useless) it just gets tediousVilham wrote:
There are definately some flaws with space age, they should of made it so you can make ships on planets that defend the local region that you don't control, similar to what the computer have or like a space base that stops enemies getting to the planet surface, sometimes parts of the game are too simple. Would allow you do not have to babysit your empire all the time.

really? i pack my cities full of turrets and stick them as close as possible to each other... between the covering fire and the super turret i don't even need to respond to pirate attacks anymoreFlaming_Maniac wrote:
I was really psyched to get the mega turret, but it seems like you still have to at the very least go to the planet under attack.
pirate attacks, but if it's a high level civilization...krazed wrote:

would have been nice to be able to build defense ships that just STAY in orbit
but how can you tell it's not the Grox attacking?krazed wrote:
