So what ship level are you?

Post by Hobbs »

I'm just wondering what ship level you guys have reached...? I've gotten 500 points so far, and I'm certain I'm no where near the highest. Any suggestions for upgrading quickly?

it takes 40,000ish government point to get 2000 ship rating and that is the max. and yes, I have hit it.

I believe he wanted tips, not people to talk about themselves. And besides, its going to empty out your AA when you die.


Legend, look for high level mines with few points (level 20 colony with 5,000 points is pretty much like my dream find these days). Make sure that after you hit "excavate" you CS constantly. This increases the chance of getting the special goods for ancient knowledge. And the higher level the mining drones, the better. More expensive means faster excavating (less time in the open) and higher chances of better goods. The excavation bonus gadget also works wonders.

just to clarify bob's statement.....if you die, you will lose all the ship size you have purchased, and therefore any upgrades you had increased on your ship. HOWEVER, your government help points stay the same, and you can repurchase all of your ship size for an insanely large amount of money.

So basically, late game, there will be a few huge ships (namely those who are more concerned with their own endeavors and not so much those of others), and everyone else will be poor?
