DrunkenMasters 2007-05-08 |  | Changes |  | The game needs some changes in order to keep the players in it. If that is not done in the near months the only threads will be about spamming and spammers and spam etc. Collective and miners don`t have even a single way to win against guard spams. And don`t tell me guard is not overpowered. Because it is. Big build rates, cheap upkeep, good ships. Do something or you will see:
after 1 month: 100 players online
after 2 months: 70 players online
.
.
.
after 6 months: only paid staff online
The game is real cra.p atm and the balancing is not finished at all. It needs some real coding. |

DrunkenMasters 99+ day(s) ago | May I spam my own thread? I don`t care I don`t care I don`t care I don`t care I don`t care I don`t care I don`t care I don`t care I don`t care I don`t care I don`t care I don`t care I don`t care. Gc needs to be improved. I will probably see meteors falling from the sky before that... |
CounterCrazy 99+ day(s) ago | StormofBladeZ make that 10 weeks... newbieies leave all the time cause of that alone lol... i would know i always get alot of them when im out newbie hunting in low ranks when i dont have planets |
DrunkenMasters 99+ day(s) ago | You can`t say a race is low power or high power, it depends on the player, especially on RT.

5 hour(s) ago : More build rates and no retal! And uninfect!
I agree. And collectives don`t have more good ships than guards. |
DrunkenMasters 99+ day(s) ago | Failing with 10 stack balanced on 1 stack spam on aggressive is just wrong. If he caught queens/runners, OK, but he didn`t. End of story. |
Perseus 99+ day(s) ago | just ask a terran/viral to tyr herc angel watever spam them. end of story. |
StormofBladeZ 99+ day(s) ago | make a special non-enslave for new players for 1 week. but if they attack it ends
lots of new players have left because of enslavement |
Zenith 99+ day(s) ago | Well, I follow the argument that collective can destroy just about every race with spammy ships except guard, who also have annoying spammy ships. And even guards can have hard times if the brig lines up just right with the hunli.
There are two spams that really work well. Galleon/brig or bark/sloop
Galleon/brig is devastating against virals. And can hold up against guards if the brig destroys the K. class
Bark/sloop can also kill virals, but not quite as well as galleon/brig. But it`s way, way better against guards.
I don`t know, I think collectives are very powerful. But I disagree with the strength of the current ships (mow does essentially 0 damage and can`t attack but somehow doesn`t die in a stack against a 1 ship spam, brig is overpowered).
More build rates and no retal! And uninfect! |
Pestilence 99+ day(s) ago | What you need to realise is tthat everytime a change is made wether it be rules balancings or changes for better or worse ppl leave some get upset and few like it, you all want and expect change but never happy with what is done even thou half the time its what u all asked for, its easy saying yes we need change but instead of making demands why dont u the players and fans do something constructive and not only mention a change for the better but do some of the work ur self with regards to what ud like changed updated added etc when u post or present it to a game admin or stephen him self by email or which ever means u so wish but remember one thing, when it happans, remember its u the players that are asking for these things so its u the players are to blaim when ur unhappy with the results |

see i am a guard that stacks =p
but newyz.. in my opinion.. guards arent thattttttt good.. super low income, high base pr.. and not many realll good ships.. so its actually pretty hard to stack well as guard.. you have k class, ruby, tourm, agate, and maybe emerald and topaz.. besides that nada..
on the other hand, collective have tons of pretty ships.. all r class r good, brigs, barks, galleons, and mow.. and if used properly they are all great.. only downside to collective is no explore.
guards surely dont need to be nerfed... races have strenghts and weaknesses, the only changes that should be made.. are to increase build rates for terran on garu and maybe others, increase upkeep on d class for viral, and give some collective ships long range
o, and rework miners completely lmao |
AGM94 99+ day(s) ago | If you try stack as guard you can see that generally the guard shiplist isnt that strong just a few good ships. I try stack as guard as often as possible and its hard to win against all races. |
Maraudian 99+ day(s) ago | H brig can take down K class G class and Probably L class Easily , maybe even tourm ( not sure there )
R sloop can trash Ruby tourm and L class
H bark Galleon and so on can also take down guardian ships , they are fine :-/
infact right now they are probably better than any race in combat :/ |
SantaClaus 99+ day(s) ago | O.o did u saw guard shiplist ? any viral or terran can anoyalite them thats the point of the game isnt it ? guard kill collectives teran kill guard etc etc ...all races have there pluses and minuses ...thats why there feds etc ..collectives r very powerfull atm if u get any more ships the curent ones u have gonna be have to be nerfed |
DrunkenMasters 99+ day(s) ago | Collective is no alright, it needs no retal ships, and at least one ship able to do well vs guards. Make collective stacking race with collective ships, that`s all I want. Or give us more neutrals. |
CounterCrazy 99+ day(s) ago | Yes balancing is not finished at all.. needs major work still
Viral need work. A.miner need work. Guard seem to be alright kinda
Collective is alright as well
Maru they are alright as well.
hm.. oh here is a thought. kill of Tax Viral lmao... its to easy to do & really fast money idk why anyone would call viral hard 1 month & your a raper at 10 mil power taking on all in your way lol |
DrunkenMasters 99+ day(s) ago | To sum up all servers:
RT - spam, that sums it up
ultra - who is the bigger and better spammer, usually the better spam wins + what, 4-5 people that are stacking?
fast - 2 good collectives at middle PR, some people with enormous amounts of artis, + 4-5 stackers + spam
normal - the best server but I am miner and I am pwned all the time. The % of good players here is bigger
slow - 20-25 active players more or less
I am sorry but GC will die with stephen`s ignorance and the lack of quality of the admins (for unpaid stuff they are OK, even good) but no one in our life is doing anything for free, Stephen. Good admins should be good at coding and their game understanding should be good as well. Not one of these two but both are required. We got game-balancing update, ok. Do you feel like the game is balanced now? |

ThePakistaniEmpire 99+ day(s) ago | was it the kalzul ships that wre used when u attacked him and to save gc we should make a new race thats playable without pay |
DrunkenMasters 99+ day(s) ago | And it will die if nothing is done to keep it alive |
Archaeoptyrex 99+ day(s) ago | sure, collectives could do with a decent missile ship
The GC death has been slow, and quite painful, sadly :( |
ThePakistaniEmpire 99+ day(s) ago | lol did he have the xe hun and the kalzul ships |
