    I've got a serious problem. My internet is downloading at full speed. I think it may be Windows Updates. Will also connect at 7:30. Hopefully the downloading will be finished by then.

    I'll be on Discord and play international multiplayer so long. Contact me there when you guys are ready. I know [MENTION=6280]Blazzok[/MENTION] is eating and [MENTION=2530]Wyvern[/MENTION] probably too. [MENTION=289]Jan[/MENTION] is pretending he isn't seeing these messages and [MENTION=24691]Jm4N[/MENTION] is staring at the menu screens according to Origin.

    Sorry! Forgot to say that Ani is up this weekend and I'm at a wedding tonight. I'll be on and offline in between hanging out with my wife but I can't commit to anything this weekend.

    Riddle me this: So I was thinking, the Andromeda galaxy is 2.5 million light years away from the Milky way. The Andromeda galaxy's size is 220k light years, across. Now, in the game I travel from one side to the other side of the galaxy, like it's nothing.....up and down, left and right. Question: If the size of Andromeda is 220 000 light years, and I can travel it like nothing. Why did it take 600 years to travel just over 10 times that distance (220k x 10 = 2.2 million) ???

    Well, for them to have traveled 2.5 m light years in 600 years, they would have to have done an average speed of ~4170 times light speed (12 light years per day!!).

    So if that is the case, clearly they possess faster than light travel without mass relays. Also, I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that the game takes place only near the center part of the Andromeda galaxy, not the whole galaxy, so we are only seeing a small part of the galaxy in the game.

    If we consider that the starts are similar distances apart as they are in the Milky Way galaxy (~4 light years), it means they can travel to another star in about 8 hours.

    To answer your question though, obviously the game won't make us wait 8 hours when traveling each time as that would just be frustrating and annoying, so I would assume they are just speeding those parts up for us

    Still, 8 hours form star to star is pretty impressive. Also, weapon and armor research is happening instantly which isn't realistic either, so pinch of salt. 600 years travel time from the Milky Way to Andromeda is really, really impressive.

    It's a long game! I've spent a lot of hours in it and it feels like I haven't done much. I do have this problem of doing everything however. I try not to miss anything.
