Okay first off I have to say I love the game. I think the graphics are good enough. But the gameplay sure is addictive. With that said I think there are some minor tweaks that would vastly improve the game. First better and more planet detail. I do think they look nice but even more detail would be just awesome. I love zooming into a planet at 2560 x 1600 resolution. It "almost" looks like Im watching an episode of "The Universe". If the detail could semi - replicate the planets and solar system appearance of that show just zooming around looking at space would be worth the purchase price. Second would be improving the fleet battles. A little more movement and some quiet ship to ship chatter when zoomed all the way in would improve the immersion factor. Making the battles a little more realistic and akin to what we expect space battles too look like would take the game itself to another level. I dont think these 2 improvements would be that difficult to implement perhaps in an expansion pack and in my opinion would put the game in a class of its own. By the way Ironclad and Stardock is fast becoming one of my favorite software companies. I have bought many products from Stardock (Gal Civ II, Tweak Vista, desktop screens, ect...). Keep up the good work.
