Halo is a uninspired universe.. And there are many many way better universes out there.. Warhammer 40k for instance is way more interesting, and ironically enough few
Hey guys, well I just started playing this game.. Its great as always but one thing irks me.. Where is the 6 player RANDOM map generator.. They have every other size except for the medium 6 player size.. Another thing I would like to see is random map that if teams are made before hand that they put the team mates in relatively close position.. Rather then it being a crap shoot in a large random map..
I think the most simplistic way of stopping this from happening is A either making the LRMs/Illumiantors etc etc alot mroe expensive, or increase their pop to like 8 each instead of 4... Illuminsators do get really REALLY rediculous especially. I have seen illuminsators to have upwards to 25 dmg.. Thats rediculous.. That is outdoing damage on a Kodaiak heavy crusier.. Hell the Advents heavy crusier with the energy aura I have seen do 35 dmg.
[quote]but some of the "uninspired" TEC designs are really SUPPOSED to be ugly IMHO. Their ships are industrial makeovers! The only "pretty" TEC ship is the KOL, which was the only ship built from the bottom up to be a ship of war.Quoted for truth.[/quote] I must be the only one who likes the look of the Marza Dreadnaught and Sol Carrier...
Request 2 things... First add a 6 person random map function.. Its the only size of even numbers you did not put in.. It goes 2 4, 8, 10.. Completely skipping 6.. (which is my favorite game size) Secondly can you program TEAM random maps? Where its programed to start off in close proximity.. Instead of getting stuck in a system with 3 people against you.
There needs to be a random map for 6 player games... My personal favorite size thats not too big and not too small is misisng.
As TEC I either go the Akkan colonizer ship... Or for the Marza Dreadnaught.. IDK but it seems to take down ships much faster then the Kol can it seems.. Advent I always always go Advent Mothership.. Followed by the Halycon carrier.. I am actually not fond of the other 3 capital ships the Advent have to offer.
I think it had nothing to do with copy write protection or piracy in general.. IT was because of the game it self.. They made a subpar Diablo 2 clone, a game that was still and still is immensely popular... They made nothing really new with the game, nor did they improve anything.. Yet some how the company expects they are successful and thinks piracy must be the fault.
I think most of the ships researched in the military tree should have more then just the numerical amount of military research buildings as pre-reqs..
Yeah I have to admit the AI at times seems like a wack a mole game.. For instance on teh map the razor my two ai team mates were killed off for beign incompettent.. Anyways I decided I might as well make it a epic last stand battle at my home world so I allow the ocmputer to wipe out my other worlds.. Now with a pretty impressive fleet at my homeworld full of fully upgraded turrets and repair bays it was looking to be a pretty awesome last stand.. Except that last stand never oc
[quote]Also consdier things like some planets are capable of having more moons then others.Like for instance gas giants can carry up to 5 seperate moons (because gas giants are nothing more then vacuums in space) versus a terran world that can support only 1-2 moons. That makes fighting for things such as gas giants much more important especially if a gas giant is sandwiched between 2 empires[/quote] Actually Saturn alone has 60 moons.. And Jupiter has some 62 moons as well...
Probably the TEC due to have the best starting economy, makes it alot easier managing resources.
Civiilian slots = logistic slots.
Hehe I would have waited till you got the ultimate weapon, and shot his planet with it..
You don't log on to ironclad for lan game.. Its under the "multiplayer" option not ironclad onlien.
Yeah playing advent lately has shown how rediculous overpowered illuminators are.. You can get them to do upwards of 25 weapon damage on their stats.. Thats rediculous.. Thats rivaling cruisers.. I think the best thing they should do is either A) Increase the pop req for them, 6 isn't doing it.. or B) make them a glass cannon, they have more hps then discple vessels for crying out loud..
Imo one of the best capital ships in the game is a carrier.. The Advent Carry is a monster.. Not only does it nice damage by it self later on with upgrades and level.. But you can't beat anima which with abilities can raise up to 10+ per squadron, along with energy aura.. Which when maxed out will decrease cool down by 22%.. It starts getting rediculous late game where you start seeing Illuminators doing 25 damage a hit..
I would like to see honestly a 4th race.. Perferably biological tech, like the zerg or Tyranids.
I think to spice things up they should add random events, like the cataclysmic event of a rogue black hole clipping the system (for very large maps)
[quote]Have you done a forum search for the 50 other topics like this? [/quote] Well I apologize then, I havn't had much time to look on these forums due to constratnts in both my studies and work.
Well just curious if any one has recieved their hard copy yet? Its been over a 7 days now sense I bought the game both downloadable+shipped hardcopy.. I live in rochester, Michigan.. But it seems quite unusual that its taking THIS long to reach me.
Just curious if any one mentioned a freespace 2 mod? I think that would be great seeing as its one of the best space sims ever made.. With a 3 races too, terrans, vusedans, and shivans.
The existence of pirates if fine.. The only thing I do not like about them is they are a bit excessive in the size of their fleets..
[quote]10 player game? FFA? Wow....multiple battles going on in same...planetary...wells...oh my! I'll throw my name in there. Unless of course someone more..."famous" is available.
