Reply to Make Vasari/Advent trade ports tier 2 in Sins Rebellion Sins Forums

Yeah pretty much....they really threw balance out the window when they started introducing differences amongst the factions...I mean, what if in chess the black pawns could move two spaces but the white pawns could move backwards?

Reply to Internet speed, ACT scores, correlations and intelligence. in Personal Computing Sins Forums

This entire article is 100% BS as you cannot use average ACT score for anything due to the HUGE selection bias present... In most states, students either generally take the ACT or generally take the SAT -- it is rare that most students will take both ...as such, "SAT states" will have a lower percentage of students taking the ACT, and the students who do take the ACT are invariably the smarter, better, more ambitious students (hence why they bother taking bot

Reply to Apology to dumdeedumdum 4v4 (Missile Barrage) in Sins Multiplayer Sins Forums

I'm not sure I'm following you...faster is a game speed you set, and it affects (among other things) the movement speed of ships...game speed does not in anyway affect ability durations, cooldowns, periodic action intervals, or even AM regen... On faster game speed, your ships will move faster and thus have a better chance of escaping the ability (which is completely unaffected by game speed)...abilities aren't executed any faster or slower just because the game s

Reply to Apology to dumdeedumdum 4v4 (Missile Barrage) in Sins Multiplayer Sins Forums

Actually it should be easier on fastest speed since ships would move faster and thus be able to escape the ability...this ability is actually GROSSLY OP on normal speed, as there is no way you will ever get a fleet out of range in time...on faster speed, it's at least an option... Personally I prefer LFs when dealing with Missile Barrage...they are still fast enough to stay out of range, but they are better than corvettes against structures and thus you can run your fleet and

Reply to What is the point of shield mitigation? in Sins Rebellion Sins Forums

Shield mitigation is not in any way meant to prevent focus firing...what it is meant to do is make focus firing weaker on a per DPS basis than AoEs...in other words, Unity Mass needs to do chaining damage...

[quote who="Volt_Cruelerz" reply="55" id="3485327"] You do realize that all competitive play on things like League and DoTa is on the same map, right? The FPS I used to work on... Whenever people would play competitively, the map was always the same. [/quote] So now sins is in the same boat as MOBAs and FPS titles? You'll forgive me if I find that idea despicable... We do not need to turn Sins into something it is not in order to make it a success...

[quote who="GoaFan77" reply="50" id="3485288"] Even if the rankings are less than adequate, the ability to hit a button and know you'll get a game in 5 minutes is a vast improvement to what we have. You may not know if it will be a 5s game or one full of noobs, but still better than arguing about teams for a half hour. [/quote] There's a reason why team selection takes so long...you might get games quickly, but when the teams are always crap, people are going to tire

Reply to Where will this game be in 6 months? in Sins Rebellion Sins Forums

In order for matchmaking to work, you have to have a large enough player base...that's not something we have or probably are going to ever have...it's really just about timing, this game is old and on the end of its lifecycle -- if lots of MP features had come out with it at release it would probably be a different story and I could see a strong MP going strong until the next iteration in the franchise... But that time has come and gone...you'll see spikes from steam sales
