Amazing how the people claiming its a topic worth discussing but not in this thread.. Are posting in this thread... that its not worth posting in this thread.... Confusing? AvatarCenturion SC isnt who has the most units in 30 seconds, I even won a match for Australain finals in the PGL just by beating off a goon spam with SCVs. It was all to do with placement, using the units and terrain to your advantage. Take zerglings... 20 zerglings cost less then

says the troll. there are serious SPAM problems currently WITH The game and it also effects LRMS and to a lesser extent even Vasari

I predict it will suck mutiplayer just as much it does now, with balance changes which remove all ships but scouts, give scouts 1 hitpoint ablity to destroy planets from there home system which cost nothing and which are builty instantly and take no pop. Kinda same play we have now.... except games will be won or lost in mintues rather then hours.

Right 1.Half of what you just called tactics I call working around bugs. 2.Retreating ships from big battles is next to impossible due to the worst AI I have ever seen in a game.. ships run forwards and ram enemy ships instead of turning around.. capships whcih stand there unable to workout where to go for 10-20 seconds at the gravity well instead of jumping to saftey. maybe its JUST the TEC ships which I mostly play that seem to do this all the time.. but retreating a

SPAM SPAM SPAM SPAM SPAM SPAM SINS It took me awhile to realise why there are SO few people playing online SINS A game which ACTUALLY punishes you for using tactics. A game which wanted to get rid of micro so it would be more open to casual players but which makes the average game take 10 times longer then any other RTS around infact even longer thrn Turn based ones like moo2 or Civilization. So that the casual players that were spose to play it dont ever have

Actually TECS real problem isnt weak caps. Majority of the caps are GOOD they have higher armor then the other races so they default out to ABOUT even due to reduced damage shield/health regen. But early on.. they take ALOT longer to clear a system.. an example Advent and Vasari colonly caps can kill pirates faster then a TEC KHOL. ..... Better econ..... slower start....

A SINGLE bomber defeats a single FRIGATE NOT the SOVA itself

Pcs have almost always had better hardware then other systems... the problem ISNT with the hardware its with the OS. Lets drop the memory and performence decreases from the OS directly and move onto something more important. In the days of DOS Newly designed hardware HAD to be designed to work with the programs already around... companies couldnt bring OUT something new without supporting the old in the device. Lets take a brandnew SVGA videocard.. to run in SVGA r

whats funny is the Vasari due to better cheaper research can get a better resource econ early game then TEC......

Well if you make the mines strike/bomber class then you could use abilities that only work agasint them. This would actually be worthwhile because flak frigates would have another use as mine cleaners.

heavy fighters DOES increase damage done by fighters and bombers it also makes them ALOT harder to kill. A level 3 sova with 2 in heavy fighters heals its bomber squad faster then a single anti fighter/bomber frigate can damage it.

ITs actually a TEC "stealth" ship. IT cant be detected on radar or in phasejump and can drop mines which also cant be detected on radar(both are visualy spotable)

I am wondering if anyone likes the design so far.. and if so what race they think it belongs too. It has problems with the texture like the engines which I am aware of, and it hasnt got any extras modeled for it yet like guns and turrets. I am kinda iffy on if I should bother finishing it so I am wondering what other people think.

Well Happy They have patched the Minidump problem, I have played over 30 games online and lots of singleplayergames and only ever experianced it once. I know some people experiance it alot. As for the games being too long, I have to agree most of the time playing sins is spent just sitting there waiting for resources or ships to get to where they are going.

why is it that people on the forums DONT read posts in a thread then make assumptions? im just wondering I have never seen it quite so bad but here on the Sins forums.

ive done that with my starting world when I was trying to go all capships and get rid of my frigate yard

strctures are one of the things that they seem to do the highest damage to. the lasers seem to do more damage to seige frigates.... I am wondering if the game splits damage into pulses so that if it does 45 damage from its banks and it fires 6 laser pulses if its 40/6 which would explain why it seems to do less damage... because agasint armored targets it actually is due to armor reduction.

Nope they wo\uldnt emp... how about mass bombers and fighters maganitize. however im statisfied Advent get Progenitor I TEc Dunov. I will use them and not bother to mentioned on the forums either again that anything is wrong. If anyone else brings up the imbalance.. I will just do what everyone else does Claim dunovs should defeat main battleunits despite the fact they are supportunits because there supportunit

Had the same problem I have also had ships told to jump out turn around completely and head STRAIGHT for the enemy fleet.. and when its a capship it can cost you the game. Pathfinding needs some extra work and or they need to make ships turn/accelerate quickly when they are given an order to move and they find themselves "traped"

Annatar I know WHAT it shows its the DAMAGE its doing thats diffrent Try it the Gauss and Missiles DO more damage then the lasers.

It doesnt add up. Dunov has 2 laserbanks and they do over double the damage of the missile and guass which is 1 bank. So the lasers should STILL do more damage.

Astax his ship wasnt 5 levels higher then mine So who is the noob? :)

I am not sure if anyone else has noticed but ship damage for capitalships seems wrong. Take the Dunlov, its missile and gauss do under half the damage of the lasers(apparently) Yet the dunlovs missiles and gauss agasint otherships DO ALOT more damage then the lasers do. its EXTREMLY noticeable once they turn to broadside with there lasers instead of using rockets gauss they end up doing less damage. IT also has the same effect on buildings the Missiles and Guass w

Right you guys GO look at bombers LOOK AT WHAT THE TOOLTIP SAYS STRONG AGASINT BUILDINGS AND CAPSHIPS. you people are aruging that a SUpportship SHOULD defeat 2 capship killers. BTW I just realised one of my carriers had to be level 5 because it had 4 bombers( I thought they got 4 at level 4) Which means one was equal level to the Progenitor.. which means it defeated 2 caps one of equal level and did so without using any of its own fighters/bombers. Lets REv

Ke5trel I would point OUT that a khol loses to 2 carriers with bombers. I would also point OUT that BOMBERS are an anti heavy ship weapon and they work best agasint surprise surprise CAPSHIPS. SO tell me then why they were sticks instead of a sharp razorblade. So the question then is Why is a colonly ship capable of outdamging a bloody battleship You say because the battleship is ACTUALLY a tank Why is it that the TANK would have lost to the same set up inst
