Re: Cloaker feature/nerf/adjustment thread

Strange to hear all these complaints coming from Bomber players, when they should be the one that should be further nerfed. We didn't solve the bomber problem with the damage/experience adjustment, people merely got interested in the cloaker and picked that over the bomber. This was probably due to ...

Re: Cloaker feature/nerf/adjustment thread

To be honest I am not sure why you would waste that much time for 1 cloaker, there are far better point options in the game to have your legion work on. Because in the current situation a cloaker fleet is basically able to dominate any beta if it's active and organised. If you cannot realistically ...

Re: LC reward

hmmm nice idea! what about maybe a "leadership" % modifier bonus (selectable? can be changed every x number of ticks? +combat damage/+bomb damage/+defense/+repairs) that is multiplied by LC % approval rating, for all ships that are in sector with LC? (although this would make those powerfu...

Re: Sooo, new Beta ?

Lots of words but nothing new added. Of course it is possible to kill me with a triple or whatever. All i am saying is that being able to go into a sector totally unseen and kill a ship without the victim ever noticing it is an unfair 'feature'. So far the proponents seem to be avid cloaker pilots....

Re: Sooo, new Beta ?

I think that if you would risk flying your ship with just 2.5k of health (42% of max health), then it's your fault that you died. It's not like the early game phase where there are only a few low level ships that could hurt you -- and you know there are a lot of L5 cloakers lurking around. The tripl...

Re: Testing frantic / beta discussion thread

I believe the definition of bunnying is getting killed by people who are 3 levels higher than you, as that doesn't give them any additional score. That means L1s are fair game to L3s, and L2s to L4s. In first 150 ticks i don't think you can get bunnied yet, unless the high levels are that ruthless.....

Re: Sooo, new Beta ?

Cloakers are not too powerful. you just think like that because we were in a frantic and luckily: 1. there was quite a lot of active cloakers 2. not too many active bombers 3. lots of careless people leaving their ships out in the open In a real beta, there is Auto-Pilot, Sleep Tick, and 3 hour turn...

Re: Testing frantic / beta discussion thread

for the record -- only 2 of my kills are bunnies, rest are legit kills. And I bunnied those two only because they were shooting at my severely injured legionmates. (looking at you, Durandal and mgblst267) :) What I'd really like to complain is the insane amount of Triples and Freebies (plus half-max...

Re: Why didnt the Bors fight the Jaxs?

Congrats to the Bors, who won basically through their amazing activity, discipline and strategy. No doubt this was also the legion that made best use of the new AP feature. However, I believe the thread here accuses them of being Bor-ing, or playing it extra safe -- which I generally agree. Jhyphi, ...
