    • 'Gimme my Confed Cruiser!


      Am I the only person who has fought hard against the aliens while working for
      the Confeds, braved Rebel blockades, hunted down ship ten times my size, only to
      find that when the Confeds say "our ships are available to you at Luna" that Luna
      DOESN'T HAVE A SHIPYARD!

      I'm playing the first version of Escape Velocity, I think, but what on earth is
      going on???

      I'm a Rebel fan all the way, but I can't even GET Confed ships..........

      :frown:

    • yes you are the only one who likes the 'feds. you should check the icon to see what version you have, but in 1.0.5 Luna does have a shipyard(its small but there is one)

      ------------------

    • Would you be so kind as to listen when I talk to you?

      I LOVE REBELS! I JUST WANTED A CONFED CRUISER TO TRY OUT!

      The question is still up. My version is earlier than 1.0.5, and I want to know if
      anyone else with an early version has this problem.

    • Can you say which version do you have exactly. It would be very helpful1 🙂

      ------------------

      killing

    • Oh! It just hit me, THE CONFEDS YOU MONSTER 🙂 🙂

    • This is a well-known bug in early versions of Escape Velocity. If you download the upgrade to 1.0.5, the Luna shipyard should reappear.

      Long live the Confederation!

      Hehe...Sorry David, but it seems as though you are severly outnumbered by us loyal Rebels. 🙂

      Long live the Rebellion!

      You recognize that if the opening credits were only a few words different, making it sympathetic to the Confeds, you would all be loyal Confeds? Hmmmph... conformists, the lot of you...

      Exactly. One of the best things about the EV games is that they allow you to choose your side, rather than blindly listening to the makers telling you who are the "good guys" and the "bad guys." Sometime I'm going to write a historical perspective that eaxmines the formation of the Confederation and the Rebellion in a more objective manner than the intro text.

      Until then, long live the Confederation!

    • Thanks. I always end up playing either EV or EVO on version 1.0.0, because I either
      get it from a MacFormat CD or get it as soon as possible.

      Now, all I need is a Mac. :frown: - My grandad moaned that EV/EVO messed up his computer.

      Long live the Rebellion!
      or to be converted:

      Long - Slowly
      Live - Kill
      Rebellion - Confederation

      Slowly Kill the Confederation!

      With a rack, preferably.
