Re: Which planet/atmosphere type do YOU pick ?
 

Methane or oxygen, rock or gas giant.

I want a planet that is a vaccum and has no atmosphere. Oh wait, we already have that. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Rock Methane or Rock Hydrogen, depends on how I am feeling that day (though RH is becoming a bit more common of a pick for me lately).

Re: Which planet/atmosphere type do YOU pick ?
 

This should have been a poll, a bar graph of Favorites would have been nice. I expected someone to shoot down rock/oxygen for some reason I'd missed. Instead, it seems pretty popular.

Re: Which planet/atmosphere type do YOU pick ?
 

I tend to play defensive so I go Gas mostly. And I like to trade for full colony ships and transports so I can make full use of all planets so Hydrogen if I can make it fit with my impression of the race Im playing. Im trying to find a nice balance between plenty of worlds I can populate while not matching other races in the game if possible.

I tried Rock/None recently but didnt find it enjoyable. So I will probably return to Gas/Hydrogen or Gas/CarbonDioxide

Re: Which planet/atmosphere type do YOU pick ?
 

I avoid rock/oxy simply because it is so popular. It cuts down on your colony tech/population trading potential.

Re: Which planet/atmosphere type do YOU pick ?
 

Actually that is exactly why I would shoot it down... Too many people take it. You lose trading leverage for breathers to trade when you have the same atmosphere as 75% of the other races in the game...

Re: Which planet/atmosphere type do YOU pick ?
 

I tend to play oxygen rock when I play as the Juprups. Otherwise I try to mix it up.

Re: Which planet/atmosphere type do YOU pick ?
 

I pick Rock/oxy for the rp aspects. It just sits better with me. Although, if I m playing a really alien race I somtimes pick rock Methaane Hey, it won't le me post anytinhg. I' Pick Rock Oxy gust for the RP aspects.
