Buying Maps for Credits

Even password maps had full maps by the 2nd day. Why didnt you just get it from them?

Edit: Which means suckas are mining big routes on the 2nd day while we are in semis.

Why didnt you have anyone join pw=maps?

Or ya coulda asked... suckas shared their maps with Second Coming... at least the racials they had at the time

pw=maps had full maps long before we did. We bought the few racial maps that our first guys were in, and a couple non-racials but in general this cuts down on slow starts. While I do kinda miss the days of organzing scouting as well as upgrading it did slow things down and its not like any of us are out there saying "oh goody I cant wait for the next game so I can explore".

Now if we could get rid of that stupid 0 personal relations with your own race... does anyone actually enjoy trading for relations? lol

make it like sm..make it every new sector you explore you gain 2 exp. currently when scouting all you do is get maps..you dont get exp or money and thats what people want..make it so they get 2 exp for each new sector explored then it would promote scouting again..i know i would want to scout!

Nothing is preventing you from scouting.

Awsome idea. Now we just need a coder...

I would disagree with the idea of exploring experience due to it distracting from potential funding for our lovely game.
