[quote who="Greg30007" reply="20" id="3384701"]Vasari: Vasari is king. If they have kosutra game is pretty much over if not once maw bug will be fixed advent (especially loyal) have serious chance to win the game. Advent: If advent have economy to build 3 Deliverance engines and as long as vasari have no kosutra they won the game. Only thing that could save anyone is vasari mobility trough phase gates with their hit and run tactic. TEC: TEC espec

[quote who="GeomanNL" reply="26" id="3383963"]- Add some resource cost to the production of new bombers (since the bombers act as units, they should cost resources just like units). [/quote] Terrible idea. Carriers are already the most expensive frigates, why attach a resource cost to their strikecraft?

Can you upload a replay please? There is no way 30 fighters can't take out a lrm in one pass. Also, like zombie said, 15 carriers is really a mid game force.

I think you went a little overboard there Aresiv... lolz. You could have dismissed his argument by just simply typing gameplay>immersion.

[quote who="Exterminatus89" reply="7" id="3383338"] Yep that mechanic is just to imbalanced i mean right of the start the guy just builds a freaken starbase at the edge of my capital planet which is bullshit so while my fleet is fight to get a planet my capital is getting fucked by a starbase built in couple of seconds i regret buying this game it seemed pretty fun at the beginning but multiplayer is just big mess from boring clusterfuck to imbalanced race advantage no fun at all.

AHAHA what a troll... [e digicons]:rofl:[/e] [e digicons]:rofl:[/e] [e digicons]:rofl:[/e] Looking at these "new player" posts from jingly makes my laugh...

[quote who="JinglyGoo" reply="60" id="3383982"]I ll have a look for that replay when im back home.[/quote] This reminds me, someone needs to start a new skilled replay/goldlist thread... I think it would really help the multiplayer community grow by educating the less experienced and make them want to compete against each other.

Wtf is this?

To be fair I learned how to counter "rushes" just by playing cruel ai...

@TeslaPhi I would say the attitude towards noobs has improved considerably since the steam sale. Hosts now find themselves under attack if they kick a new player who has been waiting for too long (unless skilled game). Also, one piece of advice I have for new players when you play AI games, do it on ICO, NOT SINGLEPLAYER! As inaccurate as the stats record is in Rebellion, it is the #1 way in determining a noob. Nobody wants a guy with a 0-0 record on their team. Demonstrating that you have 10

[quote who="Seleuceia" reply="29" id="3383730"]Another point...vertigo doesn't affect SC, never has as far as I know....it did used to have a screwy target filter that would allow it to use an SC as a spawner but it never actually debuffed them....[/quote] It says in the wiki that it does...

I dont understand what this "rush" deal is. More often then not it is the standard opener used by experienced players.

Phase Missiles The basic question that should be asked is whether phase missiles in general are overpowered, or just the PM-equipped bombers. I think we can all agree that kanraks/sentinels aren't causing any balance issues, so the solution seems to lie in nerfing only the vasari bomber. Zombie's idea of reducing the base damage of it to between Advent and Tec seems very elegant. Although Vasari fans may cry foul, keep in mind the "damage gap" would quickly be

[quote who="Seleuceia" reply="78" id="3383559"] Yarlen has stated that this works as intended...apparently the devs wanted the modifier to affect all weapons.., so the real bug is any string incorrectly suggesting that it only affects phase missiles...[/quote] WHAT!!!!! That is op then and definitely needs to be nerfed. I guess another addition to the balance list is in order...

Not caused by 1.51, but I thought it was notable to post anyway... The Stilakus Subverter has a bug where instead of allowing 25 % of phase missiles to bypass shields, it allows 25 % of all weapon damage to go through the shields (thanks zombie for pointing it out). This should definitely be added to the list.

[quote who="GeomanNL" reply="2" id="3383381"] Please don't suggest weakening defenses in favor of that boring bomber-spam... yes the Vasari defense is good against bombers, and that's what such a defense is supposed to do. You can always bring in a couple of long-range torpedo cruisers to take care of the hangars. It's really the other races that have underpowerd defenses against bombers imo.[/quote] Your posts on this forum suggest that

[quote who="JinglyGoo" reply="50" id="3382578"] Hi Sin, i agree with everything you say apart from your assesment of the Ragnarov titan. Its a trash titan mainly used by newer players to the game. Its easily the worst titan in the game based on current balance.[/quote] Thanks, although I am interested in hearing what you have to say about Aresiv's point regarding AM draining ships...

Although there is another thread on this issue, this seemed pretty comprehensive so I guess it deserves a post: Fighters The problem with Aresiv's test is that it doesn't stimulate real-world conditions. All fighter compositions in late game is actually a viable strategy, especially with vasari. As for the turn rate problem, I've actually found microing the strikecraft yourself can get you more dps than the horrid ai pathfinding(also applies to vet

I forgot to mention that nerfing Disruptive Nanites by a couple minutes is not enough... it needs to be nerfed HARD, to like 5-10 seconds or something. People seem to forget that as long as the turret is firing at the target, ALL regeneration stops... one pesky turret should not be able to bring a titan/cap to its knees...

Zombie, I feel the list needs to include more balance proposals from pre-rebellion. Like the kol, microphasing aura on skirantra, dominas, enforcers, maruaders, etc. [quote who="Seleuceia" reply="20" id="3383315"] I think Unity Mass should do chaining damage...that ought to bring AL back into balance...[/quote] Take your trolling somewhere else... this thread is only for serious balance proposals...

[quote who="Seleuceia" reply="16" id="3383197"] Ragnarov needs work...increasing the raw damage (not frontal, just sides and rear) would help but something needs to be done for its abilities, not sure what though....

[quote who="ZombiesRus5" reply="52" id="3382662"]Quoting ZombiesRus5, reply 52 Cykur was laughing at your expense last night... lmao. Karma these days, I tell ya.....[/quote] What happened exactly?

This is completely ridiculous... of the past 15 game I have played in multiplayer, all 15 of them have ended with me or someone else minidumping. Game length does not matter that much, although it seems I MD more often in the first 30 minutes of a game (might be because few games last beyond that). I don't think I will play any more matches until Ironclad fixes this problem. It is completely ruining the multiplayer experience by throwing away a 1-2 hour game.
