Am I the only person who's noticed that "Sisters of Domina" roughly translates into "The Sorority of Space Dominatrixes"? Yep. But now that you've brought it to my attention, I think it's high time I go make a "donation" to the sistas.... This is the kinkiest game ever... and I like it! Down, boy. ...

Disable a stargate? if humans had the know-how to remove a hyperglyph rod, then there would be a massive scramble for making fortresses by all stargates. Well, you can install the rod in Heretic, so... But that's not what I meant.. rather some sort of exotic radiation or energy weapon that stops it...

If I overload my UPS, it shuts the whole lot down, not just the socket responsible for the overload. I'm sure really high-end units are more forgiving though. Make it a ROM upgrade for the ship's computer, and/or dependent on the tech level of the reactor. Relative to the upgrade level/reactor size,...

I favour more and varied defences than simply greater hitpoints. More fighters, more turrets, etc. Very large stations would be a hive of ship activity, and therefore have lots of reinforcements in-transit (fighter escorts for the highly important supply ships), in addition to the permanent continge...

Make it a fighter-only thing, and when linked fire is enabled, reduce the field of fire on omni weapons to 45 degrees or something.

As it stands, there is little point in most of the late game, and the technology curve starts to look like someone's had a few cracks at it with a 9 iron. Depending on the luck of the random map generation, enemies are between hard and harder, with access to favourable high end weapons becoming more...

Freelancer has a neat repuation system, and it's a vaguely similar game (but in 3D). Reputations are interlinked, with each faction having its own allies and enemies. Sorta slashdot-eqsue. Friends of your enemies will be neutral or hostile, and vice versa. You can change your alignment by shooting a...

Giving the playership more deviceslots is not a game improvement! Think about it, how would you feel about starting a new game with 25,000 credits? This device was suggested some time ago when we still only had the sapphire, and instead new playerships were introduced. Non sequitur. A deviceslot up...

Make those calligraphy scrolls you get from slaves usable treasure maps to abandoned bases from before the quarantine in the far outskirts of solar systems (outside the usual inhabited areas), where one may salvage Iocrym or other alien weapons and/or artifacts.

Perhaps a "defend my target" option as well? At least for wingmen, if not autons. That way they can do their formation thing around the friendly, covering them from incoming fire and returning fire from their fixed formation, while not blocking me from shooting at the bad guys.
