The developers should really try to make their game more mod friendly. If I was a modder I wouldn't even try to accomplish something if I had to redo everything after a patch!
[quote who="Darvin3" reply="5" id="2928029"] So anyways, no offense or anything, but I don't want the developers wasting time creating alternate versions of units that already exist. If a unit isn't fulfilling its role effectively, then buff it. Don't create a replacement that renders the old unit obsolete. If there is a role you'd like filled that no existing unit fulfills, then create an entirely new unit (like the upcoming Corvette) rather than clonin
[quote who="Ryat" reply="2" id="2927972"]To be honest the long range frigates fill in this intermediate role quite well.[/quote] The Problem with LR Frigs is that they can't take a lot of punishment. That's why they're LR after all, avoiding confrontation with the enemy while your light frigs and heavy cruisers take the beating :P
Ohai fellow sinners =D I'm a big fan of SoaSE and love to play it over LAN with friends. But after a pretty long match last night I got an idea for another ship. We all know that Rebellion will feature a new Titan Class Warship that is even more powerful and stronger than capital ships. But what about adding something smaller for a change? In early games you rely on your free cap and light frigates to capture planetes and defend your empire as you ca
oh... okay, i guess I played to much EVE Online, where my Megathron is an ARMOR tank and my Rokh is a SHIELD tank and not other way arround or both =D So getting good armor for advent ships can also be good, because if the shields are down i doesn't get laid directly ^^ I think I got it, thx :)
Sry guys I am starting a new topic on that, I just found some old topics from 2008 and didn't want to warm 'em up. I am an Advent player and 100% on shields... I think I barely got how "Shield Mitigation" works: The more dmg is appiled on a ships shield, the more mitigation it gets, the LESS dmg is done ( a little NOT logical to me but okay...) What about armor? Radience Battleship got this armor-ability, where you get more ARMOR and Ant
[quote who="Volt_Cruelerz" reply="8" id="2494275"]Yeah, the game will realize that two people are playing different versions and will not allow for it. At any rate, that gives me a good idea... Now I know what to listen to on iTunes [/quote] If you'd check my last.fm you'd see what I listened to the last 7 Days... Sins of a solar Empire, Sins of a solar Empire and.... Sins if a solar Empire xD
[quote who="Darvin3" reply="6" id="2494160"] No. Even presuming you don't get a checksum error, you'll get a desync in game.[/quote] Okay, i'm not so good with gameinternal stuff anyway, so i'm better droppin' it =D Im already happy cause I managed to copy the soundtrack files into iTunes and listen to them xD
[quote who="Annatar11" reply="3" id="2493692"]By modifying the ship .entity files and either increasing the damage of the weapon you want to be primary on the appropriate bank(s), or lowering the damage of the current primary so another weapon bank takes the lead.[/quote] So by manipulating the game files? hmmm... Will this be valid in online/ multiplayer games? Cause... I could easily just double the dmg done by a ship xD (That would be imba^^)
I started with TEC and then switched to Advent. I never rly tried Vasari cause their voices sound like hell, and I don't wanna experience HELL when playing a game xD I like the advent ships, the way they look. Their BEAM weapons are imba and if you combine illus, crusader and some caps into a fleet you'll BEAM everything away ^^ Although Advent is struggling in the beginning, they can get pretty strong at the end. And their starbase is cool with all those 10 billion fighters ^
I kind of have a stupid question BUT... The Radiance Battleship got 2 plasma guns and 2 Beams in the front and several laser batteries at the sides. When I attack another target, lets say a Starbase, the Radiance always turns its front to the target and only fires with the plasmaguns and the beams. Wouldn't it be more effective to fire the lasers too, so that it turns a little to the side, that all weapons can fire? Long story short... is there a way to disable the "au
