1) Vancolver modding your ship is kinda lame it rakes the fun out of the game
2) There is drag in space ever heard of the theoretical "dark matter"
3) Drag may also include the turning whil you are goin at 300 cruise speed
4) For the sake of balance I get your point but really it wouldn't have been as much fun getting your Titan on manhattin now would it?
5) I don't think those situations would ever happen and I agree with the other 2 it was needed for balancing SP though not as effective in MP
1. Nope. I merely make it agile. I didn't make it invincible or whatsoever. Its like a combination of the good qualities of the existing Eagle and Sabre if you want.
2. & 3. Are you talking about physics? I hate it when ppl talk about physics as if they know a lot, which obviously they aren't. Please, I am a physics major!
Do you even know what is dark matter? Its the mass or "energy" in the Universe that does not emit radiation. They account for a large proportion of mass in the Universe. And they can be planets, asteriods, gases and anything that we cannot directly observe. The reason that they are important because they can contribute to the critical density of the universe. If this critical density exceed a certain value, the universe will end up in a collapse, they call it Big Crunch.
I don't see what is it gotta do with drag. Drag exists when something faces resistance through a medium and is denoted by a drag coefficient. This coefficient is based on the medium of travel and the dimension as well as surface of the object. For vacuum, drag is always zero.
4. Please. I have already completed the game and gotten sick of all the 3 VHFs. I have been to most bases and systems (i dare not say all), but I find that a limit has been reached whereby I cannot obtain any reasonable enjoyment from the game without modding it. Furthermore, the process of modding is actually more fun then playing the game. As least for me. : )
5. Ya. That I agree.
I am sorry if I get a bit too defensive here....but as I said....
