(1) You can't build the colony hub on a world without metals. Therefore, only worlds with metals can ever have any development on them. An example is Tinka, which, due to lack of metals, is unbuilt.
Without the colony hub you can't get the population to operate. On a terran world this could be worked around since it already supports a population. But barren worlds must have metals, or they are unbuildable. And since you can't load metals into a ship and fly them over anymore, you're stuck.
If there's something I'm just missing then feel free to correct me.

Bring the resources with you or mine them while you are there.

This does cause a big problem, as inf dissappear immediately if you scrap them and there are not enough active domes/farms to support them.
It makes building those planets effectively impossible.

@Ðrow - It's not a question of resources, at least not the kind that can be mined. It's more that a planet without metal can't build a colony hub, and as you doubtless know, metal can no longer be mined and transported.
@Drafell - Ya I tried that as well, didn't work for me either.

ICC Escort dessie is still gimped, able to equip 4 hcl's in place of pulse beam/lasers, which gives possible 4 pd and 4 hcl, plus the normal upgradeable weapons... makes for a pretty kick@ss ship.. i went head to head against uggie cruisers in a dessie and was able to hold my own, if not get the upper hand...

@drow, been said already, but that just doesnt work. if a planet has 'N' as a resource, dumping a load of resources will make more of 'N', but you cant move 'N' from one planet to another

its supposed to be that way. picket and escort dessies are anti-missile ships, PD boats. all dessies are weaker for that matter, now that armor's been pretty well fixed. dread > cruiser > dessie > frigate > scout
and i dont know about you holding your own, i recall hearing something about you getting killed by a dictor in that..

UGTO: Forward Arc bug is still there, The Intercepter Frig wont fire at close range, The Picket Dessies Weapns hmm are nice lol,
ICC: The Missle Dread sucks now as i cant fire missles at close range anymore lol, The Assault Cruiser wont fire torps at close range hmm, when boarded, it auto destructs is that supposed to happen?
Kluth: oh dont get me started on this one, The Mandible wont fire either weapon when im at close range with a planet or enemy thats what sucks oh and Cloak doesnt even seem to phase the planet sensors either it still see's me and fires even with no ECCM on the planet surface blah

Decided to try ICC from a lobbycampers point of view, eg: loggin into the game and starin at the ship selection screen... anyways, found a few typing errors and perhaps ship layout problems..
1) Bomber dessy description states that IT missles have been replaced with ftorps, yet said dessy has neither in its stock form
2) Assault cruiser description states that ship has 5 ftorp launchers, when ship layout says it has 6
As to the layout problems, from what i've seen the low level ships need work. eg: bomber corvette has 1 mirv bomb, and 1 scl... yet the stealth corvette has 2 railguns, 2 sabots, and 1 pulsebeam.. i really dont think a mirv bomb is a tradeoff for a similar ship with 4 more weapons..
We see this same problem with the transport @ 4 railguns and 1 scl vs the heavy transport with 1 mirv and 1 scl... lets give the poor heavy a chance and at least give it 2 railguns.. a heavy ship without some offensive weapons is useless, nothing but a target that can't shoot back. sounds like a good idea for the kluthies and uggies out there though i'm sher
Lastly but once more we revisit the bomber issue.. starting at the bottom and working up.
bomber corvette has 1 mirv 1 scl
bomber frigate has 2 mirv 2 scl
bomber dessy has 3 mirv 2 scl - needs 1 more scl and at least 2 railguns
jump cruiser has 2 mirv 4 scl 4 railguns, 4 missiles 1 ftorp
granted the jc is kind of the multipurpose bomber, but still that is a big jump from the dessy to cruiser class sofar as weapons. and the bd is just another flying coffin.
i know i'm gonna hear that they were made that way so people can't solo bomb, or somesuch, but still.. a ship if seperated from the fleet regardless of whether it's a bomber or not must be able to at least shoot back until his/her jd is recharged.
aside from that, played some more beta and all is good, i personally could fly the kluthie claw all day, and don't mind the cloak at all.. as one that really hasn't played outside of my own faction since 1.478 (or before), the bugs rock

[Cloak]: Clientside Model Bug
Effect: After Bug occurs, K'luth ship model was visible when cloaked, invisible when uncloaked, ad infinitum. Targetting was not affected, only the model visibility is reversed.
Cause: Quickly changed to Nav screen and back to Tactical, presumeably while K'luth ship model was in cloaking transition state. (Uncloaked->Cloaked) Whether transition started / ended before / after in Nav screen is undefined.
Reproduce: Not yet reproduced. (Will try in the next 1-2 weeks when i find the time)
Obviously somewhere along the line a toggle event was lost. Must be a toggle, not specific cloak() / uncloak() event.
Good luck.
