Looking for a casual 4th

June 21, 2012 10:49:59 AM from Sins of a Solar Empire ForumsSins of a Solar Empire Forums

Hey all. My brothers and I just purchased Rebellion and we are loving the changes so far!

 

We don't get much challenge or enjoyment from playing the AI opponents so we are looking to break into multiplayer. Ideally we would like to set up a weekly or biweekly game that consist of us 3 and whoever else to balance the teams.

We are looking for even number of players on each team so we need at least 1 person for 2v2. We all have good connections and can use voice chat. 

 

Please let me know if you're interested.

We found some cool people playing online, but finding it hard to find a regular player. We're looking for one person to play semi regularly 1-2 times a week for 3hours ish.

What is your skill level distribution?  Are you all the same?  Is one of you really good and the other 2 okay?  Not judging, it's just that 2v2 can get real boring real fast when 1 player is significantly better or worse than the other 3, makes it impossible to balance the game...so, you'll probably want to find someone that compliments your skill set...

What time during the week are you looking to play?  Weekdays?  Weekends?  Night?  Afternoon?

For now, you may want to consider these games:

2v2v2 - each of you is coupled with an AI...if you have a particularly strong or weak player, you can adjust the difficulty of their AI ally accordingly...

1v2v1 - this is an interesting game mode...it sounds really dumb at first, but it actually can be a lot of fun...it has the dynamics of a FFA, but is better balanced if you have one weak human player (who would be coupled with the AI)...

Hey there! Thanks for the reply.

I'd say that there is definitely a difference in our skill levels at current. One being better than the other two and those two are about the same. How we are playing right now is FFA with AI thrown in. Its fun and its letting use get practice since we all just bought the game. We would really like to get into team play though and the AI make horrible team mates. I'd like to play 2v2 or 3v3 with all humans, casual play.

We normally play evenings EST. For instance we have a pretty set night of Friday 8PM EST and we stop around 12-1AM

We play when we get the chance, but we all work during the day so nights are usually where it happens. Weekends are normally better but we do play weekdays as well.

I'm not entirely sure. My steam says blazenfuryeq but when I go online to multiplayer it says my normal name, which is Frenzic

I am interested in getting together for a couple games this weekend if you guys want to invite me.

My Steam ID is:  milkman

I live in the Netherlands so I am available from 6 PM EST until around 11 or or so or until I just pass out at the keyboard.... both Friday and Saturday evenings.FYI those times for me are midnight until the sun rises which I think are premium gaming hours

Happy Star Destroying !
