I still maintain that a good counter to fighter spam is a buying a capital ship. Once the SC are gone, the carriers aren't a threat. The only race that has problems with carrier spam is Vasari because no single cap can pwn SC like the other 2 races can. However, Vasari SC are extremely hard to kill. I've been messing around with TEC lately and I am going to go out on the limb and say that Magenetize is better than flak burst. Why? Because the dunov

Carriers do not need a nerf. The flak is now fine, and now the LFs just need a little buff. That is all.

Guys, because of the update, we are going to postpone the game until 8:30 so everyone has a chance to install.

[quote]there is issuse with how strong carriers are and ur overrating capital ships greatly....[/quote] How about you sign up to play tonight? 1 cap costs about 4 carriers (however you need to factor in what level of research you need). In any event, caps are pretty strong for their cost.

[quote]If you want proof that carriers are somewhat OP, just look at the AI. A friend and I have run simulations with varying fleets without micro and it seems like the optimal number of carriers of a early/mid-game fleet (no HC or cielo-equivalent) is around 60%, and is almost 50% when you allow all ships ([/quote] Is it not possible that the AI built a fleet to counter yours? If you had high numbers of LRFs in your fleet, it would be fair to reason that the AI would build the

Tyr, I agree you need to build some carriers. But I need to emphasise some. You've seen me play, I hardly ever build more than 10. I only build more if the moron keeps spamming LRFs. Anyway, I agree flak need a buff, and perhaps LFs too, but if they keep nerfing carriers, they will be as worthless as they were prior to v1.1.

[quote]A 10% buff to hull points/shields of all Capital Ships is too much to ask? really? wow, people must love their frigate/light carrier/ HC spam.[/quote] Dude. For one, stop following me. Two, what more do you want for 50 fleet points? Cap ships aren't uber-battleships, they are support ships that can be retreated before dying. Losing 1, 2, or 10 isn't that bad considering the losses on the other end will be far higher in terms of resources and fleet

[quote]How about you spam Capital Carrier Ships instead of the easily spammable Light Carrier we all know is too cost-effective. I'd have no problems with Capital Carrier Ship and in fact I think they need to be buffed.[/quote] Dude, stop smoking crack already. You are making no sense. Just go away, and stop flaming/trolling my threads.

[quote]might as well call it the light frig vs carrier game. I can show the opposite quite readily if you're up for an lrm vs carriers game.[/quote] Huh? No. You've seen me play before, and should know that I use multiple ship types to counter carriers. For LRFs on the other hand, yeah, I would spam carriers until the cows come home. Perhaps that is the problem with everyone. Everyone is so used to spamming LRFs that they are amazed when their LRFs

With level 3 flak on 2 caps, you can take out that whole swarm of drones in 10 seconds. It's so easy to beat the AI with capital counters it isn't even funny.
