Can guns miss

i thought not

January 29, 2008 12:42:00 AM from Sins of a Solar Empire ForumsSins of a Solar Empire Forums
i was under the impression that guns and missiles did not miss. in fact i believe it was one of the reason's ship's dont move during combat. But during the recent blog, he clearly states that your ships fire can miss? so im confused

You missed the fact that they already said some ships move in the final version.

Shots can miss.
Try to think about that:
If you were in a big space battle fireing on you enemy but then a pink space pony appears.

Missing is implemented in the game, but at least when I checked several betas ago it only really applied to capital ships firing on fighters.

Still pretty much true in beta 4... (and, actually, its flaks firing on fighters -- capitols don't have anti-fighter weapons except their abilities)

Missing shots depends on the combat environment...

Are all Stardock and Ironclad employees required to take Vague 101 before posting?

Shots can miss and you actually see the shots miss. They miss under a variety of conditions, either by default versus certain targets (e.g big slow guns vs fighters, modifable in data), certain combat environments (e.g asteroid fields), and various other special cases.
