Idea : Starbases should have a penalty when upgrading...

March 25, 2009 5:32:56 AM from Sins of a Solar Empire ForumsSins of a Solar Empire Forums

Just like in supreme commander when you are upgrading your commander with perks , he stays motionless and cant fire or defend himself.

Makes upgrading a starbase..an actual decision.

It'd make the Vasari base a LOT less useful for assaulting a grav well too.  You pretty much need that 1st weapons upgrade at least.

The ACU unit in Supreme Commander can and does shoot at any target in range. It can also use its special instagib ability, Overcharge. It can't move, and its construction ability is tied up in the upgrade.

It helps to check your facts before equating to a game on a different forum. Especially since such comments would get you eaten alive on the Supcom forums.

It's kinda pointless to justify your suggestion with "but another game is doing it!" when it is the only reason to stand behind, and blatantly not true.

Better luck next time, though.
