Yeah i see no point in having a shield ability i think it can only hurt. Im confused didnt all UNSC ships have AIs. Not all of them and a brand new AI or maybe not even a "smart" AI like cortana but they all at least had some AI wasnt that the point of the cole protocol that all computers and records of earth were destroyed before capture. Thats why the Cheif took cortona in the first place.

I like the idea of a high tier support cruiser. It could be very powerful and used in packs to infiltrate covenant space it would be like a space ship version of a spartan
Actually UNSC are more tactical and have one huge advantage because they have mastered making A.I.s which I think should have a tech catagory that would make ships faster more powful and efficient. One ultimate tech would be Hack Covenant Battle Net so the UNSC can see all Covenant ships everywhere
Ghost_Prime understands what people like carbon and UEF soldier seem to not comprehend. War is horrible there is nothing good about it but there is good in the reasons we fight wars. Sadam was a Genocidal son af a bitch who killed his own people just because they had a slightly different belief. The only reason I sleep at night is because of soldiers that are fighting to keep us all safe. They are people who would lay down their lives even for self rightous undeserving pricks who hate there own
Are we even sure they are earth as I recall they never showed a good zoomed out image of the landmasses and on top of that at the end of the last season they show earth at the very end and im pretty sure there were lights.
Ah UEF soldier u only prove my point wizzbang was being sarcastic just to prove a point. Your ignorance is amazing as for your comment on native americans. they were not the first or the last native people to be pushed from their land and it was the english that started it not the US which did not exsist early on. All european nations that "colonized" the americas are guilty of this crime. And it is one we do regret in the modern era of equal rights and a belief in human dignity. and carbon I am
I am so sick and tired of the ignorance of people from other countries that have no idea what they are talking abount and for some unknown reason think themselves as experts on the US. As for nuking Iran, we dont need to, conventional weapons would be more than enough as they cant defend against cruise missiles and stealth bombers. The fact is that the US, if it wanted to, didnt have to put a single troop on the ground. We could have just used UAVs to scout and find targets and let bomb
CAPITAL SHIPS THAT ARE MORE THAN GLORIFIED CRUISERS!!!
THIS IS BLASPHEMY! THIS IS MADNESS! seriously though invasion of privacy. It starts little by little, whats next?
THe issue of multiplayer numbers still remains. This game just has horrible interface for online. An example of excellent online interface is GPGnet which gives supreme commander a very strong online community. I believe if Something like this for sins were made then almost everyone who owns this game would play online.
good book but terrible movie especially the last half. It remided me of Pathfinder. A potentially excellent film and that was horribally executed. It was good then all of the sudden the film makers were like yeah... we dont care. Yes unfortunately your warning came to late for me.
Hey CanadaMan What did you decide as far as the tech tree goes. Are you going to add a tech for infiltrating a covenant ship using spartans. Also one advantage the UNSC had were AIs so I thought that the ultimate tech would be the ability to see all covenant ships. While the Covenant are masters of slip space so they can see all slip space activity. This raises another question are you going to change the animation for phase jumping so it looks like a slip space window instead?
Canadaman to answer your question about the forrunner ships I would guess that they would use the same type of weapons for there ships as the sentinals use only on a larger scale. But again we dont know so there is alot of room for interpretation. And as far as designs you can imply what there ships would like based on the one we see and the way they built their structures and sentinals.
Hey canadaman sorry about the arm I thought of something, you know how truth's dreadnaught was the last forerunner key ship well I really think it would be interesting to add Derelic forunner vessels that can be captured. They could have pretty cool designs since we only ever see the one ship. Just a thought I know ts possible because in Uzii's sins plus he had a reasearch where colony ships could capture derelic ships that were put in a special system type.
Lasers arent perfect there beams widen as they go farther its just hard to notice. But in case you didnt notice the scale in sins is weird so you cant say they are just a few thousand feet away. But back to the topic. I started a post "fixing capital ships" where i sort of adressed this but my idea is that capital ships sould stay back dealing massive damage to other capital ships or any thing that got to close.Meanwhile packs of cruisers would engage in flanking menuevers to attack cap
The only way I could see the second option is if America and consequently the rest of the world were at the brink of economic sosial break down. In order to survive America would go to war. There would be no united coalition to fightthe US as Erope would likely join the US. Even if there was US would likely come on top (at least it would be a fair fight) do to Americas technological supuriority.
Yep just jump into it. When you have a handle of things go online, Remember you will probably loose agaist an experienced player but you will learn valuable strategies. Cant learn if you dont play.
oh I thought u ment my spelli I lapsed at the end. But yea thanks
Yea.. sorry it wouldn't let me edit. :NOTSURE:
Thanks for all the great post guys I hope the devs implement some of these ideas.
The war does seem to favor the Covenant so balancing is an issue but you forget that humans have 2 huge advantages; AIs and Spartans. AIs gives the humans supurior movement and targeting ability. In the novels it says that at the start of the war humanity would loose 1 spartan while the covenant lost a flag ship. In the one novel the first strike I believe; we learn that befoe Halo 1 Johns original mission was to capture a flage ship. With some help from some other spartans he destroys an entire
OK First off Evolution is true but it is important to notice that the evolution theory does not leave God out. All evolution says is that through natural selection species change. So through God direction species can change. People evolved from a common ancestor as apes and chimps. It never says that God didnt play a part of it. Look at it this way God is a scientist he made all the laws of physics, mathematics, biology, chemestry, etc... Through his omnipitence he knew how all
I had 3 Cap ships and 30+ LRMs, some flack frigates, and kodiaks but I got Decimated by an equal size fleet of nothing but LRMs and Kodiaks. If I had invested in Kodiaks like my enemy I would have stood a chance but I spent all my money on caps and increasing the number I can command. Think about it its just no economical to build caps in most cases. Considering LRMs use rediculouse range and concentrate all fire on them.
To those who said that cap ships are fine your dead wrong i played a game today where it was pointless to build them because of all the missile frigates. Its basically a whast of money to buy them when I could build more frigates when it came down to it i lost because I build 3 capships while my enemy built tons of frigates then just had one cap ship for sieging.
I know this has already been discussed in other posts but I thought with the Devs now working on 1.1 I thought I would start another one that could be adressed in 1.1 or maybe the expansion. So here It goes. 1. Bottom line cap ships are weak. Cap ships should be the epitomy of your empires technology but they require no research unlike cruisers. Cap ships can get destroyed if you try taking on big pirate bases and battles just dont seem epic. Yes I know there are Mods t
