Full agree with pbhuh above there.

Altough, i find it a bit mean to say that Antares is a puzzle piece that doesn't fit into PG. from my point of view, it's all the other pieces that doesn't, because earlier, by the days of Antares and old Vega... sure, we had lousy graphics, the story was a little dull... but the feel was PG-ish! Unlike any other game. It's so sad that this disappeared, and i am sure that you can make a new ''modern'' Antares with the same feel.

but who knwos :/

I can say that Vega and Antares were not really welcoming systems, it were dangerous systems were you got trown into and where you had no idea how to begin.

Financial, Antares is the worst system

Antares should have Sentinel Commanders and Marauder Commanders added because at moment you only see them on Aurora, could be a warm up to a DS maybe.

I say add a DS on Lustra, just 1 or 2 so newbs know what to expect in the other Systems. The DS would contain either a Custodian Commander or Marauder Commander with 2 Rockateers, 2 Marauders and a Ressurector with a Minor DS on Terasa containing a Sentinal Commander, 4 Sentinals and a Ressurector.

No ressurecters, they will only be added in higher systems

Exactly Adrana you hit the nail on the head wth that one, thankyou.

and yes Pbhuh Antares does need a make over that's why I made the thread :D

how about removing the second armour from Antares and making it a Gemini tech instead? it would help the new guys and galls out esspecially cuz I thnk the 2nd armour is th biggest thing that makes Antares sucky for the newbs. You have to spend ages just grinding for the armours in Antares. It would be much better to have just the first armour in Antares and tehn introduce it into the Gemini system, and obviousls weaken the mantis weaponary in Antares to counter it.

Also the costs need a desperate adjustmant, best teach on Vega is roughly 3-5 hundred, best tech in Antares about 1,000 - 2,500 and in Gemini it's about the same and I'm not including rares so Antares really doesn't fit in financially.

I think the story missions could do with tweaking but mostly they're ok as they are. make a few more SMs in Antares though.

Change the graphics of Antares to match that of Gemini or Mizar at least.

The mantis are absolutely fine how and where they are though they seriously need to stop climbing over mountains and through inanimate objects (but that's more of a gamewide thing rather than just antares).
I'd also say it would be good to intruduce turrets into Antares but only because they are already in Vega. Or maybe make up an SM that explains WHY there are no turrets in Antares.

that's all for now. Tell me what ya think guys and galls.
I would say that the graphics should match atleast Vega/Draconis maybe even better.Think about it, if they could make lustra like Mantis Hive/Gazica then it would be awesome.

For the missions, please add like 40/50 missions, in that should be included:

* Going from Vega to Antares in a much more noob-friendly way
* Getting atleast rank 18 and get enough cryonite to buy a full armored ship, in your idea Thermograde.
* Getting enough time and a more noob-friendly way to find new blueprints
* Lock Lustra from the beginning
* Getting from Antares to Gemini with enough cryonite so that noobs do not get stuck in Gemini.

For the normal game i would say: Give us a full sell if we sell weapons so we can upgrade them more fair.
hmm, the more missions the better lol but we don't want the newbies stuck in Antares forever now 'ey O.O

*Hmm I dn't think it's hard getting to Rank 18 as it is but they could definately make grabbing BPs from Antares a little easier. They honestly take forever to drop sometimes :D and if they do they are often the wrong ones.

*Hmm, I don't think it's necessary to lock lustra, actually i think it's best kept open like it is now. and as for the DS idea I think that's why they put the patrolling Custonian commanders into Antares. and a friendly warm up to Gemini DS. I don't think youcan introduce a real DS to Antares as it is without hindering the game play cuz on Lustra at least there's nowhere to duck and dive out of their way.

*As for teh weapons resale I'd say if they won't give the full wack I think it would be fair to give at least 75% back from them. That's a fair amount I'd say.

*Antares to Gemini with more cryonite would be great! That was part of my thinking for only having one armour upgrade in Antares and more SMs :)
