Fleet101

Well people stopped playing for a lot of reasons. I quit because of two reasons. Pathetic online community, too small to have a real game with. And pathetic support from Sins online support. I made a post that almost all the same people I see on here disagreed with that said the online community would die if support was not implemented people blasted me for that post. Back then there was like 100-150 people on everyday. Now its... 20? I hate that I was right. Because I know a lot of you lo

Banned for not using smilys! [e digicons]>:([/e] I WANNA EAT MY CHICKEN![e digicons]XO[/e] YEAH I WANNA EAT MY CHICKEN!!![e digicons]XO[/e] OH BABY I WANNA EAT MY CHICKEN!!![e digicons]XO[/e]

Actually I dont agree with you that it takes 5 heavy crusiers to = a capital ship level 6. I know for a fact that I could win that fight. Also to get to level 6 for a capital ship is VERY hard. Even if you dish out all that money to upgrade and get the civilian upgrades for the level 4 upgrade. Although I do agree that it costs less support all the other factors I beleve its still too much of a stress. Also when you lose a lot of capital ships all that money you spent for capital ship

Thats a very good way to look at it. I hadn't thought of it that way.

Thanks for the feedback everyone. I agree with most of your comments but I have noticed one thing. It seems we forget that fleet capacity sucks up your funds the larger the fleet gets and capital ships suck up WAY too much to be useful to your economic objectives. Today I played a game and decided to make 16 capital ships at the end of the game. When I did I noticed that it sucked up all my funds through support costs and my economy actually dropped by 20-30% through crystal,m

For all of you who love to spam cap ships I have a message for you. CAPITAL SPAM IS DUMB![e digicons]:annoyed:[/e] Let me clarify... for all the money you put into cap ships and upgrades in fleet capacity and capital ship command upgrades you could build a whole fleet of carriers, light frigs, crusiers, and defences. Not to mention the aditional support costs that weigh down your economy. So please do some math on the resorces and cash you spend in comparision the firepower yo

Thats a good idea but idk if it will happen. Besides the games may get too long for multiplayer to be viable with larger maps like your talking about. "Dude i have to go pee!"[e digicons]:pout:[/e] "Hold it."[e digicons]:typo:[/e] "BUT I REALLY NEED TO GO!" [e digicons]:'([/e] "I'm not able to baby sit your fleets!" [e digicons]:(O[/e] "This game has been like 4 hours long...I... NEED... TO GO! [e digicons]X|[/e] "NO!"[e digicons]>:([/e]</p

hey feel free to contact me for a multiplayer game. Me and a buddy of mine play a lot but we do smaller maps. ONe map we do play though needs three people. I think you would be a good ally so heres my screen name and his. Fleet101 GIVEMEXLFROSTIES!!! We play normally once or 2x a week for 2h games. Hope you will accept the invite![e digicons]\o/[/e]

See I would of just quit after that lol.[e digicons]:D[/e] But once he calls you a noob thats when I get a lil angry. I would of gone real cheep on him and rushed his planets with nothing but seige frigs and wipe out his hw and planets.[e digicons]}:)[/e] Then I would hunt him down real good.

I normally don't have matches that long. My whole match normally lasts around hour and a half. But, in a long game like your talking about I would think that techin would be vital to survive long term. Quick question, how many planets did you have under your control? Because 16 capital ships sounds great but the most I normally have is 3-5 in my games. But, mabye a HUGE map like that you would have to have that much. Idk but the support alone would be huge is my guess. Also did you ha

Yeah quick expansion is vital when your doing that. Depending ont the map size I can expand pretty quick with TEC or Advent. One thing to watch out for though is someone hitting you with razing ships. That screws you up real bad if it happens early one.[e digicons]:annoyed:[/e] Then you have to march all over the map chaseing them down. For example if he takes out those military research facilitys your screwed real early.(you'll be like WHA? [e digicons]8C[/e] ) I had a guy do

Just got out of a game where I used razing. It works really well in the early rounds but I had to switch to spam later on to win the match. Main problem I had was having my razing ships survive the assualts. Spam made up for that but still... Anyone got any good tips on razing???

Today I ran an Econ set up early on and just fought for astroids and small planets for 30 min or so with only two light frigs and one cap ship with colonization as TEC. Then after my econ was up I tech/spam lrms and repair ships. It worked very well and my fleet basicly owned the rest of the night. I flanked and hit his home planets all in a row and focused on wiping out structures. Give that one a shot!

give up and start another game

If i saw a map like that i would just quit... win loss records are dumb anyway. A 4 year old could hack his wins up to 1,000 if he wanted to through a glitch or w.e so screw em.[e digicons]:beer:[/e]

What tactic do you like the most? Carriers: LAUNCH EM! [e digicons]:thumbsup:[/e] Build a lot of em, mix the fighters and bombers. Capital Ships: (so can we just ram these little guys?)[e digicons]:banhammer:[/e] Build mostly caps with support frigetes to repare and resupply.

Yeah Stats don't matter really. My stats say I never lost a game but many of my games that I might of lost or have won were DC'd by lost conn or somtimes that whole game freezes up and we never know who would of won. So just have fun and if you get to the point where u know you will win dont w8st your life on the game thats over just quit and start playing a new round withsomeone else

It's a good post but very hard to keep track of on the forums. A good feature in the game would be a spot you could click on a persons name and see a list of reviews from players. "What his allys think section" "What his enemys think section" it would be pretty nice.

On a map with lots of suns is it a good idea to sit back and defend you suns or is it better to just plung yourself into an attack on their sun. The only advantage I see that the enemy has is the abiltiy to pump out ships faster than you can in an attack. While at the same time you can build up your planets back home. Or am I missing somthing here? But I see people defend all the time! Whats up with that? Every time I try to defend my own sun I lose. Any suggestions?[e digicons]o_O[/e

Thanks guys it sounds like this is worth the only 10 bucks it takes to get. Are there anymore new ships though? I heard of starbases and defences but what about new Cap ships and Frigetes.

Sins has been awsome ever since they fixed the stability issues that I was having. But why should I get entrench? I'm afraid it will be ustable like Sins was for me just like 3 months ago. So is it ustable? Are the new units and starbases THAT great? Can I still play with vannila players without downgrading my game? Do people play entrench a lot? Sorry for all the questions[e digicons]:pout:[/e] but most of the disscusions are on specific things about entrench like the starbase

Yeah I'm the buddy hes talking about. She talked to us like 3 times that game and banned that one guy.

So just yesterday I finnaly had an awsome ONLINE game of sins. 6 players, 2 hours. No errors of anykind. It's about time. I must admit the game is amazing online. So THANK YOU stardock ironclad, Or whoever fixed that horrible dysnc error that ruined all of my games. Mabye it was a rare error but it ruined the game for me for so long. I'll be enjoying sins for a while hopfully. Quick question though. Is the expansion buggy right now or is it ok? Thanks for the hard work, <

I agree. Stardock and Ironclad have not fixed online nor made an attempt to do so. I'm sorry but when they ban people for life from online play its rediculous. So what if he spammed the main menu screan. From what I can see no one uses it anyway. I never see people talking on there because guess what... NO ONE GETS ONLINE ANYMORE!!! Reason why they dont get online is all the errors, minidumps in paticular. Me and a buddy of mine have just started to get the online games to work, but we still

Dude ironclad will not help u much from what I have seen. I hope u can play but if not get a refund on the game because the support is crap.
