There are some Sin matches where it would be nice to start in the same system as your friends. I wanted to suggest an option for the future to either define each player's starting point or an option to at least put everyone in the same system. I say "some games" because there are plenty of times where I actually want to be off in my own system.
if you use the galax forge creator that comes with the game you can pick what starting planets and even give starting ships and extra starting worlds
Okay, I had a feeling Forge could do that. I'll check it out at some point. Thanks 45701.
It would be nice if the dev's included the option to put starting positions (or teamnumbers) in the "normal (ingame)" map designer though... For those of us that don't want to spend hours with the Galaxy Forge tool.
Agreed.
Second! This is why I made my own maps and set them so allies all started on the same side of the map. but yea its definitely annoying.
Seconded.
Agreed!
It is very frustrating to set up a random Huge map against 2-4 players and have 2 end up in one system, 1 in another, and 2-3 systems with no one starting in them. Automatic advantage goes to the player in an unshared system.
