angel pyth nerf

meh, don`t involve maru in the whole thing evane :P, its upkeep is alright considering the limited amounts of cash(in most of the cases).

yep #22?

Both pyth and angel have extremely low upkeep/PR ratios compared to all other marauder ships. I know marauders don`t need a nerf, but to keep pyth and angel in line with their other ships the upkeeps would be:

Angel should have 3040 upkeep for both Maru and Viral..
Pyth should have 7028 upkeep for both Maru and Viral.

The reason Angel should have lower upkeep than pyth is because D class ships have low upkeep. If you average the upkeep to PR ratios of all other D class ships then apply the ratio to Angel you get 3040. I did the same for the pyth with all non D class marauder ships.

I don`t really know dev... With 1.4 mil per angel and 15-16k upkeep how many you will be able to build on slow...

while we at it miner upkeep is too high! :D

although virals make 70% of terran we do have positive tax mod, not to mention best ships of every rac, therefore, we probally should get some small penalty towards upkeep. So it probally should be .8 or .9 of ship upkeep.

0.7 would be acceptable...

actually that`s a rather good attitude jason haha nice :)

is everyone crying because they not paid and cannot be viral and have the ships?
I not have them and I have fun and beat virals now and then. Who cares if they uphigh,that just mean they not attack me.

species, have you ever played slow? Do you know that there you CAN`T use 500 turns to save money and then build your fleet? I said, we don`t talk about ultra and RT, we talk about slower servers where you can`t stay in DP and make money. 1.2 mil per ship is not cheap at all considering virals are not the best money makers. I told it and I will tell it again, maru ships DO need nerf in their upkeep but maybe triple it, not make it 0.8 upkeep/ PR(that`s acceptable only for RT/ultra). And after all, viral is paid race so it must be enjoyable, if you make upkeep:PR 0.8, who will play viral? I think in that case terran will be way better (considering max cols, homeworld, better income).
P.S. I doubt there can be different upkeep on different servers...

Poor poor ching the viral... -.-

D.angle and Pyth have already the big advantage, that the building is exceptional cheap, even for virals, since they basically dont need minerals. I dont see, why virals shouldnt pay a fair price for upkeeping em.

the upkeep for virals is ok on servers besides RT and Ultra imo, and there is no way to change the race only for 2 servers so I don`t think it will be changed...(or maybe double or triple the upkeep but no more)

parties on RT? Come on...

just fix the upkeep for virals, then everything is fine

get to rt ching its where the parties at ;P

PS I dont really know wot`s going on on RT lol

More uncapturable ships fun fun eh. Loosing 9 range on borrelly was a pretty big nerf, it changes the way some virals play from being aggresive to not being aggressive (chiron needed big nerfing). We lost 2 reversable ships, and now are gona loose more? If Viral are gona have the same upkeep as terran then why not make their commercial income the same, the price paid to buy the ships will also need to be dropped then perhaps too.

Sweetest Viral even with reduced range is a piece of cake

If you can;t hack the pace, maybe learn to stack then hehe

VIRAL is not HARD compared to other paid races, and Maru ships are everywhere on RT and shld be nerfed, so ppl don;t sit at high pr

I agree this shld only be for RT though, as Slower servers with the increased cost of the ship, or maybe reduce cost for turn based?

Though i suspect if this hasn`t already been implemenetd it won;t be

Though its a shame as this was HIGH on the to do list from GC players

Though i;m sure Admins have their work cut out anyway, so no disrespect just a thought

making D Class Dark maru and uncapturable is my idea >:)
