Well maybe when you have peace you dont have to develop better weapons... After all I imagine that wormhole travel would take quite some time to reserch. And there no reason to think that they got peace at our lvl of technology... Maybe they just had good ol� swords and arrows when they got peace and then during the oppressive TR the scientists did work as good as they would have if they where free to explore whatever field they liked.

Still funny they're using the internal combustion engine, and with the exception of the Vanu, conventional bullets and cannonry.
Who says they are useing a combustion engine ? The vehicles are running on energy from the warp gates on the continents and that is one of the reasons that they can�t trasverse the ocean between the landmasses.

I don't think the ground vehicles are using internal combustion technology any more than I think the air vehicles are using fuel-burning jet techology. They're all using the warpgate energy.

What do people want them to sound like? Sky cars from the Jetsons? The ground vehicles just sound better when they sound like '57 Chevys.

As for the weapons technology, maybe chemical-kinetic weapons are more reliable than energy weapons, so they are used more often.

Beh... what the hell does it matter, anyway? It's a game.

We've been using bullet technology for a good long time (Arabs began to extensively use forms of gunpower - precursors to muskets, etc. in the twelfth anf thirteenth centuries. Click here for my source). Bullet technology is probably around 800 years old. It's not too out of the question to see it being used another 1000 years in the future.

But yeah, since this is a game...who cares...

Not much progress doing peace time....

All mans greatest inventions was made during war time... If they had peace for 1000 years, they wouldnt have much progress either.
