First post here, hello forum! Forgive me if i've placed this post in the wrong place or stepped on anyones toes.
I absolutely love the game, far exceeds any of my expectations, I had some questions about the pregnancy aspect of the game and wondered if the suggestions I have had been considered or were concievable (I have had a search of the forum but i'm afraid I didn't turn anything along these lines up).
As far as I can see from the wiki pregnancy cannot really be speeded along though, once pregnant, you can go to your apartment at Tavros station and have a sort of 'maternity leave'. The problem with this though is that it puts an unnatural obstruction in the way of the storyline; being the obsessive I am it feels to me as though you should be tearing about the universe after the probes not sitting in a maternity room!
I wondered if anyone had considered any sort of 'incubator' feature, that once you were pregnant given sufficent resources or perhaps the successful completion of a quest or two you could then send your embryo to incubate at your station.
This got me to thinking about male pregnancy, there should surely be no reason that a male couldn't combine his genes with those of another being and 'incubate' in the same way? Combining the genes of two males or two females is concievable even at our present level of science, and it'd mean that players who want to stick with one gender still have the freedom of choice.
Has anything like this been suggested or would it, indeed, be desirable?
