Two words: Import. Captains. That would make this much cooler- like, first off, a leaderboard with rankings of ST players. As an extension, a way to sync other peoples Captains (and their ship) as fightable random NPC encounters.
To balance, perhaps lock said ships from being Taken.

Leaderboards will be in ST2. No syncing of other people's captains though - and no multiplayer. THere will be some NPC captains that you might recognise, along with some legendary captains. For ST1, none of the above is possible. We just enjoy the coolness and complexity that is ST

D'awwww =( Loving the game as-is at the moment though. Purchased Elite, both designers, and the unlocker all at once on Google Play Store the other day. No regrets.

Sadly as a 5-year old game there is a limit to how much the TBs can add... Is great that you are enjoying ST, it was the game that brought a lot of us here Have you seen the kickstarter updates for ST2? Although we didn't reach the multiplayer stretch goal we have for some pretty awesome stuff on the way And welcome, BTW - I don't believe we've met before

Hey there, hi there, bookworm! =)
Haven't checked out the kickstarter yet- how far are we from multiplayer?

Darth Cthoras - we were about 90K short of the multiplayer stretch goal It was a long shot. ST2 will allow you to export your starting Captain builds so that other players can load them and play them.

Darth Cthoras - it would be a huge undertaking, so it isn't something we'll be able to scope into ST2. We look forward to the opportunity in future games.

I'd meant something more along the lines of rare, named enemies, where available names could included infamous forum captains =p But true MP would have been awesome. Like Freelancer.

Darth Cthoras - if you check out the creative rewards at $100 and higher, then you can see that KickStarter backers will be helping to add such characters to the game!

I'm very excited to see some of our esteemed backers taking Rewards that will let them collaboration on designing unique enemies and NPC. Should be a cool way for people who supported the project to get involved ... and terrorize other players
