It take a long time to build up the Planets, for example a cortex nexus need 5 minutes build time, and for an sy planet you have to build 5.
My question is why isnt it possible to upgrade, for example,
the research labs to an subspace network and this to an cortex nexus?
For a bit less build time and ressources cost and without scrapping the old buildings?

You know, you can put more than one build on some ships, or you can get together with a few engineers.
Personally i don't care, longer build times = more prestige. and you only need 4 for a SY planet, use a normal lab for the last 10 tech (presuming you have a hub) to save power and workers.

I love building, I make so much prestige now just running around fixing them badly built planets with my own versions which others may consider good, bad or just plain ugly. Just give me a nice cluster to build...

I really dont mind it... I love building. So exciting, the race against time to get def up and service needs of my fellow UGTO... Shutting down dictor bases to lead the enemy in then turnin em on when they find theyre no match for the Def 3s and the surrounding player defense.... Gives me chills lol

Yeah Patriarch a few of us had suggested this a while back. I think they're planning for just that in the future along with more building upgrades.

Yeah, well, thats ok for you ppl who like to gain prestige the slow boring method, but, for us die-hard combat freaks, we have been robbed of a severe part of this game that was fun.....DOG FIGHTING....
Sounds like we are on the slow, steady descent to BuildSpace now, to rival that other great and laborious planetary building/mining game, EVE.
woohoo :/

You can't build on planets in EvE
And would you prefer the game come with pre-built planets, that all supply 10 gazillion credits, and comes with a Shipyard that only requires 1 Worker and 1 Power so you can fight all day long?
Or would you like to play a real game?

Sounds good to me. Im not interested in building planets, mining for resources or anything else like that. I want big fleet battles, I want an accurate control system, I wanna be able to duel again.....
So, do u want a real game? NO! I want 1 I enjoy!

Because we havn't put the button in yet. We need to in the near future, however, because there are certain things we want to do that will require it.
