Now what about space combat...


This has probably been suggested before, but what about if there were bases in space? There could be ship-to-ship combat, with about 10 gunners with gigantic laser cannons or something, and fighters, bombers, and, especially, boarding actions... Like Battlefield Gothic (offshoot of Warhammer 40k, a futuristic tabletop game for those who dont know, quite fun). I would like to see it, but maybe it is too much of a design stretch... (btw, I dont think starships should be able to be brought to ground, too powerful)

Adding a space sim element to PS would be so fucking sweet, but it will never happen. Even if it did happen, the devs would find a way to fuck it up.

awww, have faith in the devs. They try their best. Or am I just being naive?

P.S, does anyone else play Battlefield Gothic? Eldar rock.

EDIT: While i'm at it, naval combat would be cool too. Submarines especially. Imagine- a huge battle on land, a huge battle at sea, and many ships pounding the base with batteries of artillery

Well, they did make a great game. And it was the first of its kind (WW2 Online doesn't count) so we all probably should of expected it to be buggy. So I guess the devs are fine. But, thats not what thiss thread is about.

Yeah there was a lot of talk about this and it is extremly possible that there will be a space combat expansion but, first they still need to work on finishing up capitols and the OBO system before thinking of making another expansion.
