Reply to Pirates STILL make the game randomly unplayable in Sins Rebellion Sins Forums

[quote who="Ressy999" reply="16" id="3145191"]From what I've witnessed: Pirates will raid exactly one player every time the counter runs out, even if there are multiple bases (in multiple systems even). Prates will raid the player with the highest bounty on them. Pirate bases are rendered nonfunctional when the planet is bombarded to the point the pirates loose control of it (or if the loyalist advent titan captures it), this means that the TEC superweapon

Most of the actual implementation for this is being done by Stardock, not Ironclad, so of course it will be different from Sins' early days. As I said previously, different from how it was in Sins vanilla, Entrenchment, Diplomacy.

[quote who="Raketensegler80" reply="45" id="3143916"]Hmm, that makes the Titan much less powerful in combat, since Desperation could increase damage and damage reduction by quite a margin. Did they remove the technology in the tech tree? I guess they have, otherwise it would make no sense for the VLT to have an ability he can only use with mid-high end techs. At least I have something to do when I come home... [/quote] </

[quote who="GoaFan77" reply="36" id="3143623"] You're over reacting. The Vasari aren't even out yet, and I don't think the devs have given up on the mobility theme. Perhaps they just decided to let the Vasari get new ships without planets in a different way.[/quote] I played bit more and i found out, that the original "Desperation" ability of Titan was replaced with a new ability called "Spawn Phase Stabiliser".

Reply to Beta Rant! in Sins Rebellion Sins Forums

So i just tried it and you are right, and i am incrediby annoyed about what i found... so yeah, as it is now, no more Fleet Beacon for Titan anymore. DAFUQ? You need Phase Gate to summon Dark Fleet Ships, and i suppose you cant have a Phase Gate without planet, right? So what happened to the "completely mobile" idea? It seems to me now, the whole grand idea of planet-less Vasari is being reduced to ability not lose the game, when you lose your capital planet, as you have the T

I think it was great movie myself, but i agree it was very difficult to watch and i was baffled by it myself. Thats why i know about/read those comments on IMDB myself, seeking explanations.

Now you really confused me, i did not know about any second ability on the phase gate. Is it not the Returning Armada? Or that is the first ability? Perhaps you are right then, although it does not make much sense to me, for reasons i named in my previous post. Was not planning it, but i guess, i am going to look into it right now. I might have overlooked something, it happened to me first time with the Planet Stripping ability as well.

Artifact planet means the one you need to capture in order to achieve OCCUPATION VICTORY. Not random planet which happens to have artifact on the surface. So if you cant capture any planet, which is not either this occupation planet or capital, its clearly broken and will be fixed.

Reply to I need a new TV series to watch in Movies & TV & Books Sins Forums

Dead like Me - both comedy and serious, starring Mandy Patinkin... i think its fairly highly rated on IMDB too and its really worthy to watch - i think it has more than entertainment value. The Event, Surface, Flash Forward, Invasion, Odyssey 5, Threshold - all 6 sci-fi, all 6 great IMHO and all 6 canned after the first season. That can be a positive too, at least they stopped at their best and you dont have to watch following seasons most likely full of mediocrity and recycled ideas

So the OP saw the Prometheus trailer and deducted from it, its going to be based off HALO? Despite the Ridley Scott directing it (not Uwe Boll), despite the same visual effect to the Prometheus "headline" as in the Alien, despite the "space jockey" footage, shown in the trailer, despite all the talk about Prometheus being connected to Alien long before the trailer was even released?
