lol well i didnt chose the name, but rah will kill all that lies in his path!

no this has been around since 1.16. it has just recently become a more public debate.
I realize that you can use carriers to make your enemys spam flacks but that is not the point. carriers are not ment to be used to trick your enemy, they should be able to destroy your enemy. if you have just a few flack in your fleet, they will counter more fighters squads than themselves just because they were brought to the level they should have been when carrier spamming was a "Problem". really you can build LFs to trick your enemy into overspamming LRFs but that is not a LFs pri
Centurion is right not every good person spams lrfs, but basically in any skilled persons fleet lrfs are the backbone. they are cheap, counter lots of ships, and the only real hard counter to them is now HCs because flack was brought up to where it should be, but carriers were nerfed rediculously. The really stupid thing is when people were whining about carriers being OP they were so off. really to destroy carriers you need to build a counter, now carriers can be countered by something
Now Sins has gone back to only one main stratagy that works, LRFs. now that carriers have been overnerfed there is absolutely no counter to LRFs early game with flack just because 5 flack will kill off 10 fighters squads far faster than they will rebuild. Before people would complain about how OP carriers were but it was an easily countered stratagy. People didnt seem to understand that to stop carriers you have to build the counter. Now there is no counter to LRMs except lrms for yourself. (
you might need to change it, Krath is now part of the all powerful _|~
I think ICO is just being fair. JJ has about 1k games in total, ICO is only giving noobs like me a chance to beat him, cause the ai takes over after he leaves.
well jj for now you seem to be having the unlucky DC day. sometimes ICO randomly DCes you in all of your games for one day. ive had it happen before it really sucks. But yes ICO does need to be fixed.
Nightraider earlier you were afraid to face us because you didnt have JJ to win the game for you. You should get better before you start insulting other clans, who have people who are better than you.
There is not just one stratagy. I have successfully fended off a fleet of illums, flack and gaurdians(with repulse) as vasari. All you need to do is have around 15 flack, then resarch as much upgrades for assilents and spam them. you can use your egg and assielnts to take out the gaurdians quickly, then you move your flack into the center of the illum fleet so they can eat up the side beams. Then all you need to do is kill them with your assilents. if they move the illums move your flack alon
The problem with saying that is alot of good players have the problem that they join a game, and as soon as they join people start to leave, just because they dont want to get creamed. Really to stop smurfs you should try to make people less afraid to learn from people who are better than them. That is a major reason people smurf. (There are some people who smurf for the fun of it though)
really the only way to make the ais harder are to make more of them than you. but they are still just as predictible. if you are finding the ai too easy you should try to play some games online. ICO is much more challanging than the ai any day and you get to have the comorodary of playing with other people.
All of these are good ideas, asking for a person from IC online all of the time is asking way too much. it may be better to have like a "play with the devs" day evey month or something.
[quote]Off topic question:[/quote] more than you will be able to build
another really good place is here: https://forums.sinsofasolarempire.com/342141 there is not too many 3v3s but they have some of the best replays around. and there is tons of people who use vasari.
wow how, just because blue beat you doesnt mean you have to go telling everyone that King sucks. its a game.
the only way for any ship to survive (other than cap ships) is to have the ability only at lvl 1. at lvl 2 no ship fully upgraded or not, will survive.(caps will survive)
a TEC Starbase that has fully upgraded self destruct does 8000 dmg to all ships in the area. that will destroy every single ship in a fleet except for caps. It is the single most powerful ability in the game. it even makes MB look like throwing rocks against the ships. In late game it can make an automatic win cause your enemy wont be able to build his fleet back up fast enough. before you cream him.
i am having the same problem. its not only you
[quote]nano-bomb[/quote] so is this some hybrid between the nano dissasembler and the gravity bomb?
k thanks how.
Today i have been getting a new problem, after about 5 mins into an online game i get a yellow message at the top of my screen saying disconected from Ironclad Online. There is no error message, nothing. it seems to replace the humans with ais. ive joined 4 games and 3 of them have done this. Usually i start lagging (which i don't usually do) then i just disconnect. this just started today. i have never seen anything like this before online.
ok i have one question, i know for phase missiles you can research a 30% dmg increase, but is the extra 20% the bonus from culture? I just dont know the exact numbers
thanks how, but if you are going to put me on you should probably start me on teir 3 just cause sometimes i can make some really stupid mistakes. and scoutter you couldnt beat me lol
[quote]Why arent I on this list yet? -.-[/quote] lol i could be on this list by now, ive played like a billion games with tyr and his friends.
