Have you tryed clicking Options (or Menu), then Video? Maybe you need to uncheck 'Window Mode'. Resolutions won't change in windowed mode. But I don't understand where you are seeing the "option to 'save' stays gray"?
VeryLight, same as fighters. Flak counters Corvettes BTW, good to see you again Raging Amish! But I would expect some change to it's dmg type.
[quote who="Turthalion" reply="15" id="3170814"]Like the man said, this issue has been going on since 2008 (4 years). How many submits do sins devs need to fix this. Objectively, this doesn't ever look like it will be sorted. [/quote] It has been fixed to varying degrees at different times. Desyncs were very rare (nonexistant) in Diplomacy v.1.34. But new content (patchs) has introduced new problems. Being its still in Beta, that should be expected
Yeah, unpin and collapse as much as possible. And especially, DON'T auto pin frigates (under user interface setting). You can 'collapse' that top "scrollbar", but unfortunately, it CAN'T be unpinned. (Despite being one of the most requested features for Rebellion)!!
[quote who="Volt_Cruelerz" reply="9" id="3168095"]As a result, my guess is that the so-called "Trinity Alliance" would consist of the VR, TL, and AR. By the time the chasers arrive, the VL would probably be on their way and thus not concern themselves with it. The AL would probably be the first to fall as their single-minded purpose of destroying the TEC would leave them open to attack from the rear. In response to the new alien threat, the TR would probably surge forward through the worlds l

[quote who="Qu4r" reply="29" id="3167279"]Crashes , from my expireince , are limited to vasari. Stripping makes game extrimly unstable , and mobile SB doesnt help too. If u dont play vasa , especialy vasa loyalist, u wont see the problem.[/quote] Well, many of those games were with Vasari, and I played VL as well (and watched others strip rush). But there does seem to be consensus that Vasari are to blame. I also still think its partly the larger games. In a 4v4 tod
[quote]-Civilian Evacuations: The oddity of this researchable is that it could be OP if it weren't for what Stripped to the Core does. It gives a mobile player a steady income from tax which can significantly increase their base credit rate. [/quote] This Tier 3 tech needs to be addressed. (Vasari Loyalist T3 civic tech, Civil Evacuation). Yes, it is being overshadowed by Strip rushing (and the 2, or upto 4! free Cap ship Labs). But it is also part of the problem
[quote who="DirtySanchezz" reply="24" id="3167025"]I agree with Quar: it needs more time in the development oven. It's far from being ready for prime time right now.

The only differences that I can think of are: I h
[quote who="lbgsloan" reply="10" id="3165728"]First impressions are important, and right now balance will scare many potential new multiplayer players away from the game.[/quote] While I agree, especially with your comments here , at this late point, I think another beta patch is unlikely. IMO, The game still plays quite well thru the early techs (except for possibly corvettes). 
[quote who="sareth01" reply="28" id="3164743"]As a community we should seek to provide suggestions that ensure the developers do not need to add a lot of new ship models, combat calculation alterations, and EVERY SUGGESTION should attempt to maximize the game's enjoyment while mantaining balance. This requires thinking outside the box, this is in essence an attempt to assist the developers to maximize their priorities and ensure that every developer stroke of the keyboard, and every click
[quote who="Volt_Cruelerz" reply="34" id="3164965"]@Sagewon: So long as there are construction frigates in the gravity well, you can always just quickly deconstruct them and build new ones without losing the planet. Also, this is of course only possible to do a strike like that if you scout an opponent to know where their culture centers are. Perhaps it would be different in MP, but it seems alright in SP.[/quote] But isn't it possible to get into a situation then, where there is
[quote who="JuleTron" reply="5" id="3164250"]I am mostly interested in ship balance so I haven't given much thought to tech balance but this all seems pretty accurate... [Regarding the VR Jumping Starbase]: Making it so that the ability to create a phase node is a prerequisite for this tech sounds good. Possibly also make it so that the phase node upgrade must be bought on the Orkulus for it to be able to jump. ... [VLT Coronata:] S
[quote who="ImmortalWKM" reply="32" id="3164916"]I like most of the ideas from the original post although i disagree on the changes for the DE. I'm only playing vs. the AI and constantly having to rebuild my culture centers would be really annoying. Shutting them down for some time would be a far better solution imho. I'm not sure if the DE is really underpowered though.[/quote] WKM, I have to agree. I like the original post's ideas, but I also think the DE (the
[quote who="sareth01" reply="6" id="3163316"]I'm curious why the developers added such an odd sub forum, that has a lot less activity then the main rebellion forum by far.[/quote] Sareth, its a very old forum (first post Mar of '07).

[quote who="Mow Mow" reply="13" id="3163119"]The problem with that is, Dark Fleet requires tier 8 research to use. IIRC, if you no longer have enough labs, you can't use the ability if you no longer have enough labs to research that ability. Therefore, if a Vasari Loyalist wants to go fully mobile, that player would then require eight capital ships, which is probably a little too high. Perhaps, changing the research so that it's split into two techs - one which gives 1/2 civ labs, and

[quote who="Nichtganz" reply="18" id="3161407"]As mentioned before there is nothing wrong with the resources you get it's the speed it which you get the research and the speed at which the planets are stripped is the issue.

[quote who="Timmaigh" reply="22" id="3160384"]Personally, i can see: - Strip to the core moved to tier 8 - stripping process take 3-5 minutes - removed the second level of the shipboard lab, so you always need at least 8 capships to have all the research tiers covered, no 2 labs per capship anymore[/quote] Good Comments Timmy. Rather than remove the second level of shipboard labs, I think the first level (of the T5 civil tech) should grant 1 Mili
