[quote who="Yarlen" reply="27" id="3417723"] This is being addressed in a future update.[/quote] *raspy voice* Excellent... there is promise in you yet.

Reading Yarlen's description of the random events, it seems open rebellions are only supposed to occur when enemy culture is affecting the planet, but that doesn't seem to be the case...

The open rebellions are a neat idea, but I feel like they're implemented a little badly. It seems to me that they're intended to make culture more important, and punish you for not keeping your culture up besides the extremely slow, easy to counter enemy culture creep, which is a good idea on paper, but the way it works in-game I think is not so great. For one, it's infuriating to have a single planet constantly suffer from open rebellions over and over, I think a planet o

Terran is usually the best choice because they are well rounded and can have the highest population, meaning you'll get the most out of the 100%+ allegiance for tax income, especially if you go full social spec, in which case the tax income can get pretty crazy when the population hits max. If you're planning to use it more actively as part of your economy/war machine though it'd probably be best to go with a desert planet since they are easier to defend and get more

That's an interesting idea, and one I had not considered. I was also thinking about the possibility of adding a small antimatter depletion effect to Disruption Matrix to make it more useful early game, with it starting out pretty high but scaling up slowly so that it would not make Disruption Matrix way more powerful than it already is late game.

Sounds about right, I spose.

[quote who="Rovert10" reply="10" id="3379665"] Buff suppression aura to affect all strikecraft. Suddenly Coronata is extremely powerful and would actually bring a really good counterplay against Bomber spams.[/quote] Yeah, but then how do you kill the Coronata? You don't, that's how c:

It really depends on when/where we're talking about, in terms of multiplayer I would guess they are probably still underpowered, although I cannot say for sure since I do not actually play on ICO. I base this on the fact that they are clearly designed to be a lategame faction. As TEC Loyalist the philosophy seems to be that you have to hold out during the early game, so you can get to the late game, where the TEC Loyalists actually are quite powerful with their Novalith spam, and with a f

[quote who="ezeltje299" reply="14" id="3377827"] Something I have noticed by playing with a friend, is that its much more useful to get tradeports everywhere, than in a chain. Maybe it's because of my chain that I had, where he got the bonus from, but he was advent, I was TEC, and he got more credits than me. I had a large chain, he had trade ports at every planet...And he got a much higher income...[/quote] Of course he did... trade ports

Edit: Okay, I got the Gauss Rail Gun to work properly the way I wanted to, but now I'm getting a runtime error after adding in the changes I wanted to do to Adaptive Force Field, namely making it passive and reducing its stats to make it so it wasn't too powerful given its new passive nature. Apologies if my code is weird, I wasn't too sure how to do Passive Abilities so it's probably a mess :P, links below. Edit2: Wow, a blank line was apparently causing the runtime e

Hey guys, both because I wanted to and because it seemed like a logical place to start modding the game, I'm working on improving the Kol. Anyway, I'm attempting to add a shield mitigation reduction debuff to the Gauss Rail Gun. I have the proper reference files installed correctly, and using the Stikulas' DefeatShields buff as a template, I added a shield mitigation effect to it, however I can never actually test it properly since every time I build the Kol and mouse over GRG to

The AI do this somewhat often late game, have been for a while, not sure why.

I was the same race, and no there weren't any planet bonuses, which was actually kind of weird, but hey. I have a weird theory that it's based on distance from the star, since my highest pop one was one phase jump away at 1222, though I don't have any proof of this...

So I'm playing a random huge game, invaded an enemy system, took some planets, and started getting a foothold. The AI did not like this and fired a Kostura at a Terran planet bordering the star, where i had specced for social and constructed a bunch of media hubs to push back culture faster/ make it harder for the enemy ai to do anything. I figured it was no big deal, since they would just start spreading culture again after the disable wore off, right? At first, they didn't, which I

Lol, I love the undiscovered planet just chilling up there.

Yeah that was my guess as well.... still amazing ._.

I bow to the master of trade routes... ._.

I thought about tying in that theory but decided I'd leave it open for discussion :P

I feel like this would make a lot more sense if either of those images worked. Not sure on this however.

Yeah that's pretty much the full extent of Sins lore :P

Space ponies has been in for a long time, it's just it couldn't spawn in a map normally, you had to put it in a custom map yourself if I remember correctly (or something like that). Either I encountered a glitch or it actually spawns in random maps now, since I got it in a random map.

So I know there were some hints and stuff to Sins history in the past but there seem to be some interesting ones in this latest DLC. For instance one thing I found quite interesting was the description for "ancient mine factory"- the description states something along the lines of "An abandoned mine factory is found, containing elements of both modern TEC and modern Advent architecture, yet is clearly neither. Increases maximum space mines in this gravity well by 25." This to me suggests that

Well, I've actually managed to get space ponies, so there's that.

All at once my available fleet supply went up by 69 and I was like wait wait the fck just happened? It took me like 20 seconds to check to make sure most of my ships were still there before I realized just what hat happened. Good thing they're expendable! :3

I just thought I should let you all know that I just lost 23 corvettes to a single space mine. That is all, goodbye!
