[quote who="GoaFan77" reply="2" id="3111719"]I really think they should get both, but whatever. The only thing is Polistes is that the TEC ogrovs can take out starbases well, but trinity Advent and Vasari antistructure cruisers are either non-existant or ineffective. Granted it sounds like one Advent titan will have the ability to capture planets through Auxillary government, so that will negate many loyalist benefits, and what I assume are the Vasari loyalist seem to get the ability to bring

[quote who="Greg30007" reply="15" id="3111298"]Titan is deadly as long as it has antimater. Drain him of it and it is in trouble [/quote] Which is why detonate anti-matter for advent would be the bane of Titans if it is actually usable on them. Ion bolt unfortunately doesn't work on Titans.

No patches are irregular. And you won't probably see the next races till Beta Stage 2 which is weeks if not a couple months away.

One has to realize why didn't you just go around the defenses or find a wormhole if this was a random map (maybe pre-made) to backstab your emeny. Phase jump inhibitors don't cover an entire gravity well for a planet. Does for an astroid. Even then you could have taken a large number of carriers and bomb those structures and make a dash for it. Also you should really stop using that many KOLs. Kols are good for tanking and using flak but you don't need that many. Tell your

Well it is steamworks intergrated now so I doubt it is all that hard to do this stuff. Just give them some time. Let's get the actual game working than worry about this.

[quote who="Halos" reply="3" id="3110420"]A starbase destroyer already exists and it's called an ogrov torpedo cruiser. Dual starbases will still do poorly in pvp.[/quote] Depends if you have phase jump inhibitors and lots of fighters with your SBs then they become potent since they can't just go the roundabout way. It works on great chokepoints especially if that chokepoint is an astroid or such. Orgovs are expensive and flaks can kill them pretty easily.</

What is the new IP because I am not in the Steam group.

Bugs first than balancing later. We probably won't get to the actual balancing till Beta 3 when we have all the factions inside.

Do you have neutral astroid fields and such in between the planets because those will break the trade route till you put an SB with a trade port.

TEC > All Why? Because we have hoshis. [e digicons]:P[/e]

[quote who="sareth01" reply="3" id="3107823"]good idea, lower tech level. I'd say tech level 5-6 would be better, make people pay a lot to acquire it early so that they have a larger window of vulnerability before their planets start to make a profit. [/quote] You forget that this is TEC we are talking about. Regardless of faction TEC always had that early eco advantage so I doubt that wouldn't matter too much.

Hmm... never played any of the Wing Commanders before. Will give this a shot then. BTW should have put it in PC gaming.

Around the time beta came out I believe.

Hmm... I didn't realize that DoV was originally ment for EaW. Learn something new everyday I suppose. Seems quite the challenge. No wonder you don't take crap from anyone except maybe your own team.

Yeah just go pre-order rebellion and get the beta through Steam and such. You can't transfer the games to steam here.

This thread needs a lock...

[quote who="BFroberg" reply="2" id="3106196"]Wouldn't the dual-research allow eight star bases within a stars gravity well? If the Advent get something similar.. just imagine.. We're talking 160 strikecraft in the gravity well at all times, not to mention meteor swarms, disorientation.. It would be.. epic! [/quote] And then you can say good bye to multistars because nobody is gonna break through that without a 1000 Orgovs.

Nobody knows until you actually put them head to head in combat. Just pray that won't happen anytime soon. If it came down to it then it's probably gonna be decided by pilot skill rather than the jets themselves. Edit: Move this thread somewhere else.

[quote who="RogueCaptain" reply="72" id="3105547"]Guys, Germany had railguns in WWII that reached all the way across to the UK. It's antique technology. We never upgraded until now because the enemy hasn't. The big difference now is the cannons are literally not miles long, more energy efficient and projectiles reach greater maximum speed. Saddam also had a private contractor build him one that could easily reach Isreal. Although that one was origina

[quote who="Jafo" reply="61" id="3104993"]Quoting Rovert10, reply 60No they don't really. It's just a photoshop. There are people who feel a need to answer that? ....[/quote] Yes I do feel the need. [e digicons]:P[/e]

The need for battlecruisers is non-existant. You are better with giving heavy cruisers another role since they don't seem to have much use for now.

[quote who="DsRaider" reply="59" id="3104978"]There are helicopters that break the sound barrier? [/quote] No they don't really. It's just a photoshop.

[quote who="seanw3" reply="14" id="3103549"]War is big part of the human condition at this stage in our evolution. The human condition has not reached a stage of being where killing each other is against our nature. As much as I would like that to be the case, I will take the railguns on my next tour just in case. Can these be fired underwater? I am so tired of torpedoes and depth charges.[/quote] No I doubt it regardless of speed. Water resistance will still stop it.

Buying directly from the black market it is unlimited. Prices vary depending on how much someone buys or sells from the market. If you sell more then the price drops. If you buy more then the price increases. Buying from players is only when you or the other person actually put resources out but this feature is never used. Usually as you progress in the game you will find that you don't need the black market more and more.
