Re: 1.2 Beta 3 is ready!

Re: 1.2 Beta 3 is ready!

so, let me guess.. enhancement remains capped at +50% ?
has anyone ever completed one of these 1.2 something versions as yet?
or wait, isnt this version , like all other beta versions, solely for bug testing ? [facepalm]

Re: turning in combat

its short range doesnt help much especially with the bad ass destroyers (read phobos and deimos) funnily enough i encountered only one ranx dreadnought. got blown to bits after taking the plasma archannon shot to the side and domina saved me and the blue shield went down right as a swarm of ares san...

Re: 1.2 Beta 2

one more possible glitch i've noticed in the last playthrough of mine. there were at least 3-4 CSC americas. i get it that america is a superpower and all, but in 3-4 systems i've seen the csc america and in some hyper-space-time continuum they cant all be the same csc because i saw one get destroye...

Re: turning in combat

After a traumatic experience of getting blown to bits by the phobos and losing my last insurance I'm trying to be extra careful with them. I've taken out a couple. What I did was keep moving backwards while firing my fusion fire howitzer and aiming for its mouth. The recoil keeps you out of harms wa...

Re: 1.2 Beta 2

oh and i had one more thing to say, i was stuck in the system before dantalion because i couldnt find the damn gate, so i used up a gem to get to elysuim and before doing that i took a screenshot of my galactic map to try and pick a gate in elysium that would get me back on track, and i took the pha...

Re: 1.2 Beta 2

going strong with about 20 hours game time (fun weekend) i've noticed a few changes. those darn phobos appear to be buffed and my fav IM90 seems to have been nerfed somewhere along the way. the heavy ion cannon now does a whoppping (darn i forgot the exact numbers) it was somewhere around 60+ i thin...

Re: turning in combat

yeah i am using a laptop. i've been going at a shot for the high score. coming up close to 20 hours of gameplay so far, without a death, if the insurance death> ressurection cloning etc doesnt count. i've reached the heretic system though i've skipped out a lot of ares and im close to 1M. those darn...

turning in combat

i've noticed that theres a slight bug, perhaps, regarding turning while thrusting forward and shooting at the same time. supposing im using an omni weapon and targeting some ship, i usually just swing around in circles around it till said ship dies, but in the recent releases of transcendence, it do...

Re: Transcendence: the Movie (A Big If)

movie? this is something i'd really like to see! if there ever was a game that can be made into a movie, i dont think that any game could fit the role as well as transcendence. you'd need one hell of a scriptwriter to pull this off, someone who's got a well versed knowledge of the transcendence back...

Re: High scores

Back here again. and i see Starstrike still has the top spot. i sort of aborted my mission to dethrone him when i got my new laptop and gave in to playing the games that i've missed out. my old save file and trans folder is on my old laptop back in college and i was wondering if i could be able to a...

Re: High scores

is there any sort of bonus to your score if you leave through the heretic gate, ie not dying or running out of fuel or radiation or blown up or arrested or being liquefied ringer experiments or by angry teraton fabricators or by any other way that i might have missed? i noticed starstrike has a nice...
