[quote who="Greg30007" reply="39" id="3173641"] 2 caps with lvl 2 drain upgrade are enough to get it am starved for anything below and including lvl 3 titan. 3 caps for more than that unless it is vasa rebel which will drain your am from your caps (= no abilities) or advent rebel lvl6 or above.; You can safely assume he will have ultimate on that titan which is +600% AM regeneration if I am not mistaken. That is 100 or 150 fleet supply. Rest w

Corvettes: redundant, no real game serving purpose. Must have early game spamm unit that adds nothing to game depth.Needs at least own damage type opposing to composite to balance properly. Jumping orkies: I want some of what the person were smoking when he came up with this idea. 0 pop cap rushable pseudo titans. Mobilization needs to effect pop cap at the very least. And mobile SB should be entirely new unit that can be build from migratory after research. </
[quote who="Polistes" reply="37" id="3173622"]Are you sure you can judge someone's skill based on that? Have you considered other possibilities? Like maybe trying to level the titan up in a rapid manner? It takes forever to get it to a useful level when its with a fleet of other ships. Maybe I did it for the lulz? Maybe I wanted to see what it could and could not take? There are plenty of reasons for as to why I decided to send it out on its own, and especially since you guys s
[quote who="Greg30007" reply="34" id="3173609"] Quoting crisaron, reply 22Taking a Titan head on in it's well is pretty dumb.. Bring right fleet (400 fleet suply is more than enough) with you and all but vasa rebel titan die in less than 3 min or run from fight in shame.[/quote] You mean bombers? Right? Right fleet for titan killing is carriers. VR, AR and both tecs have more than enought AOE abilites, that if they are not AM starved and lvl
If you like to play online, stay away, avoid it like a plague. Monitor the whine level on forums and when the main issues are fixed, come back.
Why rush titan when you can make mobile starbase?
Real question is y u no spamm corvettes?
[quote who="Frogboy" reply="86" id="3173573"]Pro tip: Calling the developers "morons" not cool. [/quote] You prefer mail delivered incendiary devices instead? Jokes aside, if you dont want to nerf vasari, at least buff tec and advent so they have some sort of late game mobility, flexibility and fleet sustain that can come close to vasari. I remember i used to do advent battleball with guardians and progens, o
[quote who="Polistes" reply="31" id="3173562"]So basically your saying that you can't counter anything with a starbase and defenses. A majority of MP games don't even last that long to begin with so its a moot point.[/quote] Not with the static defense, no. At best, it is a stop gap measure to buy time. Defense line dont win wars. Are you French or something? Because if i recall correctly, French had this maginot line, and we all k

Let me remind you, all you SP players, that the same tactics that are OP in MP, literally stomps AI to the ground. SP AI is as easily beaten by current OP stuff as any other player who dont do metagame.
[quote who="Polistes" reply="26" id="3173520"]You counter the above by fully upgrading your valuable planets with Sbs and static defenses. Also the Kostra cannon technique does have a serious drawback, though it can be mitigated if your careful, but here is the lowdown. If you use the kostra cannon to attack behind enemy lines then unless you brought the titan with the phase stabilizer node or have the level six merauder you are stuck unless you can capture the plane
Lenin is right, the balance of this game goes down the toilet. MP matches are wont by the team who gets VR or VL in eco sport. If your team have advent or tec in eco spots and enemy got vasari, your team loses unless teams are stacked in player skill department... and i mean REALLY stacked. Your side players must be complete incompetent idiots not to hold long enough for vasari to get up to speed. And after that, good luck fighting off either fully fleet capped
The problem with static defense for other races is just that, it is static. A fully upgraded SB is huge investment, and once you lay it down, it stays there. It cant defend other wells, or assault enemy. So if enemy choses to ignore defenses, like vasari can thanks to kostura cannon, all you investment are for nothing. Ironically, vasari have best defense and offense of all races. The nanite missiles that disable AM and passive repair is one of the few thing that can ki
patch game.
I remeber back in the Entranchment days vasari eco spot used to spamm orkies and kept fleet pop low. Now vasari eco can spamm orkies and be actualy the most powerful military while having virtually no fleet. Vasari is just so broken when comparing to other 2 races, the only time you stand a chance against vasari in MP is if he is stupid or rushed 1 jumps away by corvetes. Late game is Vasari town hands down no questions asked.
in nexst patch. VR Orkulus will get new ability researchable ability called Phaaaaaaase inhiiiibitor at lvl 6 military tech. VR Titan cannot be longer killed, instead, it will phase out at health 1, and regenerate for 2 minutes to max HP and return to game at any spot you so chose.
If you want to make advent the best Bomber race, change vasari bombers to fire a wave cannon or something. This way, capitals wont be one shotted by 50 squads of PHAaaaAaAase missile spamming bombers.
Corsev is too antimatter starved to be real counter to corvettes when the corvettes are main threath, IE at the beginnigs of the game. In my experience, it is a gimicky ship that loses it utility after first 5 minutes of game. It needs too much micro to be worth it after the point where fleets grow too much. It needs too much am to be useful when attacking. So it is a anti corvette rush stop gap at the beginning of the game, nothing more. <p
Vasari bombers will always be the best. Why? The reinforce time on bombers are all same, but one vasari bombers is more effective than one of any other factions bomber. Vasari bomber health allow it survive most of the anti fighter skills in game. Fully upgraded bomber is almost as durable as a frigate. Phase missiles. Phase missiles. Phase missiles. Phase missiles. Phase missiles. Phase missiles.
BOOO, HISS! If you want to do something to help MP, fix the starting position so there wont be "i r be raped" spots.
