Making the Game Profitable for the Developer

Disclaimer: I haven't played for a while, so I don't know if station designs have changed much, etc. Also, I'm not suggesting that the main storyline should be anything but free. 1. Maybe corporate stations can occasionally display real ads. I know people don't like ad banners in games, but I wouldn...

Re: Succession #6 Corporate Command Sneak Peek

Maybe I shouldn't have abandoned ship so quickly. Sounds like y'all are having a great time. I finally got a decent computer that can play Transcendence again, but with it, two jobs that makes gaming time a rare thing.

Re: Succession #6 Corporate Command Sneek Peek

I'm not actually interested. I just decided to make my presence known.

Back to lurking.

Re: Transcendence one step closer to real life!

Thanks for the tip. I'll look into it soon. I use my computer for school classes, so I can't try new repairs until I have a break in assignments. I've got French and Spanish night classes this semester. Can't wait till everyone switches over to galactic Basic.

Re: Transcendence one step closer to real life!

Indeed I have cleaned my computer recently, Atar. Thank you for the advice. Unfortunately, a couple of weeks after I bought this laptop (think first laptops to come out with dual layer burning ~2004), I left it in range of the kid sister while I was out. She started it up, the BIOS password appeared...

Re: Transcendence one step closer to real life!

Indeed, it's been a while. My computer is too old to run transcendence on it. The processor overheats and dies. When I get a new computer, the first thing going on it is... Rollercoaster Tycoon 2. But the second program will be Transcendence. Wolfy, where's the like button for your comment? Hope eve...

Transcendence one step closer to real life!

Scientists have invented an x-ray laser that can heat matter to over 3.6 million degrees (°F,°C,K wasn't specified, but who cares!). Hopefully they'll make a second one and figure out how to make the beams both x-ray and purple visible light at the same time. http://io9.com/5879308/most-powerful-las...

Someone nominate the wikipedia page for wikipedia for deletion. Tell them that they're not worth referencing since college professors don't accept citations from their website.

At the very least, the flame war might distract from the potential deletion of Transcendence's page. :P

Weird Happenings with the Black Market in Rigel Aurelius

1.0 I figured I'd help the BM station in Rigel Aurelius meet its destiny a bit early and blew it up immediately after buying a smuggler's cargo hold (and before doing any arena missions.) When I got second place in the arena, the rescue mission started up, and Kate immediately said "Thanks, clear th...

Thanks again for Transcendence. I had to wait until 11pm tonight to download because I'm on a satellite connection, and it's metered until late night. Can't wait to try it out. I posted the Transcendence main page to my facebook. Now would be a good time to start talking about the game to friends, a...

Also, captain's primer is outdated eg. By Gannon I just bought this missile launcher and now your telling me I need to buy more! I don't care if it is cheap. What do you think I am made of money? I saw that you just grabbed a random ROM out of that box. How do I know it is the correct one? So how do...

5. Trade with the Black Market

http://www.neurohack.com/transcendence/explore/more/Highlights.html I like the list, but I think that this spoiler "Here's a hint: some Black Market operatives like to dine at the fancy hotels. If you have something they want, maybe they'll talk to you." is not a hint, but a dead giveaway for even n...

Homing/Dark Lightning Gun(Brainstorm, not bug)

I was thinking about the Rasiermesser smart cannon, and the the dark lightning damage type, and I was wondering how hard it would be to make a weapon that fires a lightning bolt type weapon that arcs toward the enemy. I'm imagining dark purple bolt that's fast (maybe speed 85-100 since lightning tra...
