Will it have the bonus pack or not though?

I think we can safely include it. I don't use it (i am mostly a fighter jockey and there's nothing for me in the BP), but its a must have for more trade-oriented players.

So, what you think? Are the bonus pack vanilla?

Most people consider it vanilla, don't they?

Turbo booster! Nothing like buzzing a Q in a kestrel doing 1360m/s...

I wouldn't play without bonus pack personally :3

I played SMPX3TC for nearly two years. I found it very educational and picked up loads of little tricks that made me a better player by taking part. I can't join this one sadly as I need a new gfx card to play the game in the first place and my uplaoding speed is too slow to successfullly upload anything but an early game.

I'd be interested. Depending on rules

The older version of SMPX3TC doesn't use the same system we did - I don't think there are rules in this version. We only had rules to make things easier to accomplish goals (like no building in Plot sectors until the plot is done - it's quite difficult to do combat missions in setors with 1000 station complexes and 300+ mining ships for example.) Looking back on it now, we only needed rules because I needed keeping in check - everyone else was fine without them I think.

I would say it's wise to have a personal goal in the SMP game otherwise you can be quite lost once it gets to your turn.

I don't have access to the saves from SMPX3TC version 2 (interesting to look at - I think ther chip phase was done in 16 hours or less) and version 3. If TTD or vbruzual get on later they might still have access - TTD's sig has a link to the SMPX3TC version 2 if anyone fancies a read of what we got up to.

Hmm, maybe i'm looking in the wrong place, but the latest post is almost one year old.

[Teladi Profit]

Yup. That's right.
This is the old forum, we want to use for the new game.
So the new players can have a look and get -perhaps- some tips and tricks.

I have updated the rules a bit, and created an introduction topic. You can find it here: http://www.bosl.info/Forum/viewtopic.php?f=137&t=780

So, as I said in the intro-topic, we need more people for this. So if you are interested, let me know.

The old rules are still kept, I just changed them a very bit.
I'd like to know your opinion on the rules, because it is intended to have rules that everyone can agree to.

Also, we'd like to here any other ideas you have for this. So feel free to post it here!

OK, i'm in.

[Nwah]

I'm in too, made a post over there as well.

[Striker304]

OK, so there are now the following people in:
-> ivak
-> Nwah
-> Teladi Profit
-> Striker304

We think that it's good to have at least 5 people in this, so we need at least one more player, and then we'll start it.

@Infekted: Do you want to join now?

And if anyone else wants to join, feel free to do so!

Aye i do. Just gotta register and whatnot on that site

[Striker304]

OK, we're planning to start next week, well, not tomorrow but one week later

For everyone who is currently involved:
http://www.bosl.info/Forum/viewtopic.php?f=137&t=780
Here you can find a posting where I made a plan who can play at what days etc.
So look through the list and let me know whether it's OK.

And anyone else who is not involved: If you want to get in, just let me know. Now there's still time for discussion on the rules and the game start we'll choose etc., so now may be the best time to get in
