Reply to [BUG] Disintegration in Beta Feedback Sins Forums

I think it could do damage to shields-> hull and restore shields. You disintegrate that matter, right? Turn it into energy? Then that energy should restore the energy-based shields. That would add a ton of usability to Disintegration, because you would have a reason to use it as soon as you lose some shields, not when your cap is already half dead.

Reply to Making Cap abilities viable in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

The damage doesn't go up by straight 10%. It's less. Question (here, cause it is closely related to the Marauder): What would you say if the Vasari Homeworld was "Phase Stabilizer Node" by default? I mean, from the first minute of the game, just like that. It wouldn't be much of a bonus before the player gets phase stabilizers, kosturas... or a Marauder to level 6. I believe it wouldn't screw anything but would make a Marauder so much more useful

Reply to Diplomacy: what if we overhauled the trade system? in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

[quote] In real life trade vessels that were destroyed would not be replaced for free, also the operating costs of trade ships would go up if the route became dangerous due to higher insurance and danger pay for crew etc. The amount of money gained for raiding enemy trade ships is pitiful. It should be greatly increased, and additional penalties imposed on the trading player who loses trade ships.[/quote]That idea may be a little too much, because the trade ships are stupid enough to fly thro

What about this: Trade Port ability - Deal of the Year A buyer has been found in an allied Empire for some very precious cargo. Escort the Trade Vessel to earn serious profits. Ability costs 1000 credits to activate Cooldown is 15 minutes from the moment the previous Deal of the Year is completed (either succeeded or failed) Effects: a very sturdy Trade Vessel (the size and durability of a cap sh

The most beautiful thing in sins is the lack of necessary macro-scale-micro. Most RTS games require a big number of clicks to develop infrastructure etc. Sins is very simplified - you can, for example, select your 80 planets with a box and instantly order the construction of fighters on each planet, because the squadron management icon will appear (collectively, for all planets). You can also quickly TAB through them all to see which one could use an upgrade t

[quote]N3rull you forgot OP illums. They have more health for their cost then kodiaks. Thats not right.[/quote]Having more health is only half of the truth. If you look up the table of what weapon deals what damage to what units, you will see that very heavy armor takes about 50% less damage from all sources averaged. The best you can do to HCs is 125% from other HCs, 100% with bombers, all other units deal below 75%. Light armor - LRFs - take 200% from a number of sources (fighters

Reply to Use of starbase phase gate and capital ship phase gate (bug?) in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

[quote]The only broken thing is starbase phase gates on stars.[/quote]The phase gate erratic functioning has a long story of not working in the most annoying and random moments. I haven't used Marauder much recently, but I have had its phase gating fail a number of times in a number of situations in the past. Many others did as well.

Do you "own" your copy of sins? (don't be ashamed if you don't) - I'm not ashamed! Do you own entrenchment? - I'm not ashamed here either! Let say you were to divide you time between Vanilla and Entrenchment sins, what percentage of time do you play Vanilla or Entrenchment? - Entrenchment 101%. SBs ftw. Roughly how many hours a day do you play Sins (either)(count mutliplayer also)? - Ehm... let's see... I launch the game... rea

Blah, my head's been screwed. Of course I wanted both assault cruisers and siege frigs to be heavy armored (so LFs hard counter them), not medium. I must've been been drinking. This is because I wanted LFs to counter those. That way siege frigs / assault cruisers won't die too easily if they are protected against LFs correctly and will die like flies if left alone. That's just the way it should be! heavyheavyheavyHEAVEY!

I, for one, do not think Advent is OP. Advent is JUST FINE . Advent is not some sort of ungodly imbalol haxxor faction. Maybe repulse should become counterable. Other than that, Advent is just about as polished as it should, with ships and caps working nicely together, abilities that support each other and so on. It is the other two races that are crapped , left wi

Yes it can disrupt a Marza, but just how often do you meet Marzas ready to MB you? Many TEC players use it, ok, you need Marauder to stop it, I agree. But being able to stop a missile barrage does not mean a game won. You can catch those carriers. Awesome. Particularly now that they have had their speed nerfed. Marauder sounds nice and cool, but except being able to help in a few, unique situations that may or may not even happen in your game, it does NOTHING. Every
