[quote who="GoaFan77" reply="3" id="3071618"] Not Star Wars, just the prequels.[/quote] Meant that. [quote]It has the problem all sudden remakes years later tend to have, everyone thinks they know what Star Wars is, and don't like it when the official version disagrees with theirs. They want the same old thing repackaged as something new. That was not what the prequels are.[/quote] Exactly.

[quote who="GoaFan77" reply="1" id="3071609"] I was pretty surprised when I heard all the hate against Star Wars prequels. I wonder how many other people will be when they see this.

The vasari can, through research, upgrade phase jump speed through created phase lanes by up to 50% for a total of 150% of normal phase jumping speed.

If you want to see the mayhem this can cause you should have played as borg vs borg before a patch was implemented to make it so it cannot taget borg ships.

I dont get it... the Kortul is pretty much equal to the Kol. It has nano jammer (vs strikecraft) the power diverter thingy (shield and weapon buff) and... what was it... anyways it doesnt have an ability that even comes close to finest hour. Yeah you mentioned that the Kol has to level up to get there, but even before then it has pretty much equal abilities to the Kortul. I could be wrong, but I think your praise of the Kortul is a bit biased.

[quote who="Ryat" reply="19" id="3068229"] Rebellion is still on the same engine. A bit more updated but still same engine. And yes, the ability is there but the ability would be OP unless there was a big rewrite. Further with all the ships in some battles the current abilities cause enough issue as is in micro. This ability would complicate it even more. Hence the devs have stated that they will not bring in this extra complexity.[/quote] I asked for someone to come up with a mo

Titans need to have some sort of strategic significance other than just raw power otherwise they wont be worth building. If they are going to turn out how I think they are, Titans are going to be balanced so as to be worth the same fleet supply and cap points as a bunch of smaller ships that match it, meaning Titans will be worthless like caps are. Its only ever worth building one cap because... I dont know its a fleet anchor and it looks cool and if I dont build one all that experience will
