I wonder if they might consider implementing one of my older ideas. Reduce the amount of experience needed for a capital ship to level up and increase the max number of levels. That way a capital ship might eventually be able to become Titan-like.[/quote] They would be useless then. They'll

MULTIPLAYER LEAGUES... OMG OMG OMG CAN'T FORMULATE ANYTHING COHERENT

I tried reinstalling all my drivers but he's still there and spamming:/ edit: adding constructive part to my post- SPAMMER DEFENSE PLAN: everyone changes name to one in brackets and join secret channel= spam avoided. annoying to pull off and it has other downsides... but until spammer issue is resolved its some workaround.

~4:20 CET, spammer strikes again. If guys at ICO have nothing against spamming guess I'll spam their mailbox with ban requests.

[quote who="myfist0" reply="10" id="2895188"]I would ban just for De-Nigalizer What an ass [/quote] OMG typical thinking of political correctness zombie. Guy is ruining game for everyone=no ban Guy touches sacred taboo of yours=BANBAANBAN!!! Obviosly part of the ritual is bragging about it on wrong thread. Ok end offtopic. His original name is Nathan####, also known as radioactive (not to be confused with star's smurf) and Bob (he

Yeah thing is he didn't even believe you'll ban anyone hence this post. Maybe this kind of behavior will end if people see banhammer in motion.

I was there. He spammed game room for 15mins pissing everyone off. He does that all the time. PLS permaban him, no warnings and shit like that. He had it coming for a long time. WE WANT BLOOD

[quote who="GoaFan77" reply="199" id="2888980"] Quoting Mecha-Lenin, reply 181 *Kostura nerf... you needed several cannons for them to be effective, huge strain even on dedicated eco guy. Moreover, using them required some skill AND team cooperation. It took risk and effort to use them. But I suppose devs would rather listen to SPAM crowd. If you really wanted to nerf them you could try some gradual dmg reduction, or projectile speed reduction.. but this is ridiculous. <b

I like new order, it should produce more balanced games. Or it WOULD produce more balanced games if ICO wasn't so deserted. Anyway, if sins gets off from the ground with next patch I think we should try to adopt this.

I know who you are, Richard Head. No one else uses so long and precise sentences!

Any change that increases overall efficiency is a buff, direct or indirect. And it's a bit more than few seconds:). It's significant decrease in micro. I haven't played much beta yet so can't really tell how much of an impact it has, probably not that much, but it wasn't the point of my post. Point was TEC has plenty perfectly viable, highly efficient strats and boosting middle chain of most of them is bad for balance.

OK I just got back into sins, red patch notes, had few games and... I'm puzzled. What's the logic behind this patch? Does 1 race just have to be overbuffed all the time? Advent->Vasa-> and now perhaps TEC? *Scramble bombers... yeah that needed adjustment. *Kostura nerf... you needed several cannons for them to be effective, huge strain even on dedicated eco guy. Moreover, using them required some skill AND team cooperation. It took risk and effort to use t

It's incredible that good counters haven't spread already, there are numerous people using them. Just look around.

wanted to write sometihng but im too drunk

If you are willing to learn and listen you can skip SP all together. If you are "I WILL START EVERY MATCH BY SPAMMING TURRETS AROUND HW EVERY FREAKING TIME AND NO ONE WILL STOP ME !!!!1111" type of a player then stick with SP. Sins players bashing every new guy is a myth, only morons have a hard time. If you are willing to learn someone will usually help you.

Sunny did you pay Quar for PR?

No. Smurfing didn't kill sins. I think it had very negligable effect. Ironclad killed online sins by neglecting ICO and releasing single player focused Diplo. I can understand personal vendettas, BiA/DT rivalry and other crap... but FFS. It's just too obvious. DT smurfs stacking games happened how often? 1 in 20 games? Give me a break, things like that don't decrease peak player counts from 150 to 30/40. It's the system, not naughty player behaviour.

Well... you can have fun even with dead. ^ edit: I apologize for this comment.

I actually had 3 GAMES IN A ROW last weekend, some of them as large as 4v4!!! Sins may not be as dead as I and many others thought, it's more of a clinical death. Other games blow, blow hard. Don't play that starcraft dawn of war etc crap made for braindead 10 year olds. BACK TO SINS NOW! RESUSCITATE!! RESUSCITATE!!

[quote]Anyway, guys, you do realize that by complaining about the low players counts and then moving on to single player or other games that you are part of the problem and not part of the solution?[/quote] There is no solution. I love this game, can't find real replacement but waiting 30-40min for a 3v3 match is not worth it. Maybe one thing that could have prolonged life of Sins MP community could have been massive ICO revamp, but IC doesn't even care enough to merge

I'd say sins are dead, this saturday at ~22:00 GMT i saw like 20 people. Better to ask: what you guys are playing now? I moved to DoW2, unfortunately it blows. Pretty dumb clickfest.

Feed came a bit late though, 30 min not enough for proper space invaders match. btw I think Tyr liked that smurf;(

10 or so games and no minis.
