Spectator mode is actually the Goodyear Blimp, you hover over the players drinking booze and watch them play while you sit confortably overhead.

I gotta play weasel more often, its jap.

And for zombies

"Loakhaed RSC17 Spider located at D12"

I think we should start using the names to confuse ppl. I.E. Ivangrad Ut-59 at Left SAFE!

this way my LT, who also knows the full name of the ship, can come green without newbs coming to kill me in cloaks. brilliant.

Ivangrad is actually a powerful russian missile. It's also a city.

Lezarwerks SY/9 Shark
Advanced cloakable fighter with Gravity Drive

If i remember right, Gravity Drive was never implemented. It was supposed to be a device (like anti-warp or x-radar) but it would have drawn nme ships towards you. something like that maybe...if there is a bigger nerd with better memory correct me

[Sleepy Weasel]

I just checked the instruction booklet of the game and it doesn't include the full names, technically at the time of the retail release the shark didn't even exist, so I'm curious as to when they actually made up the full names for them.

Warbird - Most maneuverable ship in the game
Javelin - Fastest ship in the game
Spider - Only ship with cloaking ability
Leviathan - The only ship able to carry level 3 bombs
Terrier - Twin "Hound" Ion guns
Weasel - Experimental Electronic countermeasures craft
Lancaster - Special bomber

[Bioture]

Yeah sleepy weasel is right. I thought they were written somewhere on the box or the guide but they arent.

2) compete - atanst the best pilots in the world in 10 unique battle zones including Chaos, Speed, Turf, and War. (w00t)

the names are shown in the select ship area of the client

shark was put in as an official ship (as opposed to just *ufo) after 1.32

[SEAL]

[poop juice]

the ship's full names have been on subspace.net forever

[WiseCherub]

It was funny when I saw Star Trek: Nemesis...

That Romulan ship... looked like a giant warbird...hah

Ohya, I was chatting with this guy named Wolf in pubs today... he said he designed the warbird? True... he sounded very sincere...

I told him, on my computer desktop...
I have a picture of a warbird... and right on its nose, I put the continuum icon..heh..

The question I have....

In the original SubSpace game, was there a storyline to the game? Like planet Earth enters the new frontier.. space... various country alliances build these ships to fight other..etc.. something corny like that..heh... just curious...

No, there was just the
"Meet people from all over the world... Then KILL THEM!"

[Luckily Yours]

Wat u people fail to understand is that all those descriptions jonas had were the original ship descriptions so stop saying they are wrong and correcting em cause they werent made for tw....

[Blue Thunder2003]

I looked on that site and this is what i first read...

Here's some more on the upcoming Continuum: Next Level client:
30 players per arena
Switchable views (observer, cinematic, cockpit, classic SS)
Self server mode (act as your own server)
Twelve ships instead of eight
Repair station where you can trade kill points to fix your ship

WTFZ? was this SUPPOSED to be the new client or a bunch of made up shit? cause its sounds interesting.. well somewhat...
