Reply to Combat and movement in Strategy Sins Forums

why would you want carriers in the middle of a battle anyway? they are just fodder at that point. i stick them right at the grav well so if they have to warp, no moving

Reply to Petition for Cloak (Discusion) in Sins Modding Sins Forums

[quote]Only if you remove it from the ship itself. I think it would be enough to give the cloaking ship a tradeship icon onscreen (something small and usually ignored ), it can use a more normal icon in the Infocard.[/quote] actually that is not a bad idea... because there is an option to turn trade ship icons off, thus, if you played that way, it could be realistic. the question becomes, can you switch icons on the fly also? like take a BS icon, turn

[quote]In other words, it was actually copyright, and the chance at making money from copyrighted software, that led to better business. So while I agree that piracy helped jumpstart the market, it's not a good example of some of the demands that pirates have, like ending copyright and intellectual property. If these pirates had their way, and there was no copyright on digital products, then the Eastern block would have had no incentive to try to form a business out of games or anything els

Reply to Petition for Cloak (Discusion) in Sins Modding Sins Forums

[quote]The real problem with a true cloakable ship - even if you fixed the icon problem - is that it's a lot of micro to gain any benefit from it, unless it's just a super unstoppable scout ship.[/quote] nah i disagree. if i made them, i would make a cap ability for one, and in my mod, caps are super tough, and i would also make it a "tough" cruiser, and if you had, say 15 of them, waiting in a grav well, and sneaking behind the enemy lines, they could be pretty deadly

if you wanted, but that isn't really "cloak" the way i would want it. i would even make mine have movement, except for phase jump, just can't shoot or use abilities. if it were for my mod

first of all, there is already code for invulnerability. its "Invulnerability" and you can easily mod it to make it last however long you want. for cloak, all you have to do is set easy parameters, just like invul. cant move, cant shoot, cant do anything really, just cloak. but it would be really cool to move some ships into an enemy grav well and cloak them, and just wait.

[quote]There is a fairly small, but very dense core of serial pirates that can't possibly pay for what they're taking. Which is why ISP's are going ballistic over people downloading 300 gigs a month. How many of that 90% is the guys that download enough software that they'd have to work a second job to pay for it all if they bought it? The real question the industry needs to ask is whether the pirate before you buy crowd is larger than the pirate instead of buy crowd. [/quote] &nbs

Reply to Starting tips for each race? (2) in Strategy Sins Forums

the only thing is guys, he doesn't play online. these seem like online strategies. no matter how big the map is i always throw ports and refineries down, even versus unfair. the AI doesnt seem to be able to outpace you much, unless you are playing like 3 v1 or something, then maybe you have to watch your econ to the "T". I am assuming vanilla sins, and thus I have always ended up with a lot of econ at the end of the game and never thought I should have not wasted time, econ or slots on buildi
