Oh, I didn't mean his was, I was just saying that if I had a system that required liquid nitrogen cooling or something, I'd brag about it in one of these threads under the guise of "is it good enough?"
Maybe there is an event where your people spontaneously destroy it or something.
I'd make one of these bragging threads, too, if I had a mega-sweet system *robs bank, takes loot to computer shop*
I'm the same way. After all the lousy half-finished games I've played lately, it feels good to love again
6. Weapons take up less space in smaller ships but I think defenses take up the same amount of room; tiny ships normally just have weapons That's strange. I would have thought that it was weapons that take up the same amount of room but defences that take up less, simply because there is less to defend. Oh, well. Thanks for the
You might want to go 128mb for a video card.
I gots me a scary awesome NwN2 dragon breathing fire. If you can beat that, I welcome your pic onto my desktop These do look very nice, good yob. Actually, I did have one of the images of the blue slug guys from the fan site kit as my desktop a short while ago
I am so playing as the blue slug guys in my first game. Seriously, you guys. In my first skirmish game, anyway. I'm not sure if you even *can* play the campaign with anyone other than humans, and it is in there that I assume the tutorial bits to be?
I guess that answers that. Thanks for your replies, people! The way it is now, as I understand it from your posts, is that defences are much more effective than they would be if you could overwhelm them. I imagine the AI would build nothing but tiny fighters packed with the most advanced weapons, forcing you to abandon all those cruiser and frigate designs you had been working on until 4am if it were otherwise. I'
I'll be running the game on a pretty ancient machine.... AMD Atlhon 1.2ghz processor 512 DDR Ram ATi Radeon 9550 PRO 1.8Ghz 256 DDR Ram ATI 9200 128mb You know it is time for an upgrade when they start selling 'home desktop' systems that
You could argue that the combined attack against 1x defense makes sense, in a way. Overwhelming shield capacitors or something might be the shield version, nanobots or something regenerating armour after the round is over for that, and countermeasure launchers reloading? Or just not having enough launchers to handle all the incoming projectiles. If any of you have played Battlefleet Gothic (warhammmer 40k fleet battle spinoff kind of thing), that is sort of how it works the
Unless you've got one of those handy neural jacks to plug into your CPU directly, of course. I wonder if you can get one of those installed for less than the cost of a fancy 19" LCD... *drools, doesn't have 400 stupid dollars*
I guess it would also depend on how the rounds go. The way I had it in my head was every ship on a side performing attacks in order, then the enemy ships each taking a turn and so forth until one side is destroyed. Also it would probably slow the game down a lot having to account for lost shield/armour points and so forth, but it would be a neat detail, maybe. I'm just a little bummed there won't be any swarms of fighters or carriers or anything like that, with ships just
Hi, everyone. I was looking at some of them savoury screenshots and wondering whether fielding squadrons of smaller ships is completely dumb in the game. What it came down to was: Are defences counted as, for example 2 per round, or 2 per ship attacking? If I have three fighters with 2 beam attack each, and the enemy corvette has 2 shields, are the fighters completely useless with three
OMG you guys, will this game run on my totally maxed out 5Ghz, 1024mb video, 4gb ram system?! Also you did not mention what colour your case was, how you modded it, etc. It might not run on blue lit interiors!
