[quote who="SpardaSon21" reply="40" id="3146029"]You pro MP guys do realize that you can always make a "MP Balance Mod" for Sins that has what you guys feel are balanced stats, right? Granted, that's really a last resort if the developers aren't willing to make a balanced game, but the option is always there.[/quote] I think you miss the point of having a multiplayer pro scene.

[quote who="RiddleKing" reply="28" id="3145939"]From novaliths to red buttons-dear god is rebellion going to be the most controversial sins yet? A lesson can be learnt from this----> don't buff the tec! Ryat and Mayall are not stupid for being unable to deal with Repulse esp with a race with a bad economy, no hull repair cruiser early game and has to rely on this late game tech.

[quote who="Ryat" reply="21" id="3145756"]Javelis' out range repulsion at base level (per game code Javelis's range 9800, Repulsion 7500). That said, Repulsion has been an issue for a while so I agree with you MayallCommunion. [/quote] Ok thanks I was not sure about the range because im still new to getting into the codes of the game so I could not find them:p

You are strawmaning an argument. Also you are biased so... Haze never said that Javelis can kill Guardians, he said that he believes javelis can outrange guardian repulsion with Target Uplink, this may or may not be true, and if it is true we do not know how high in levels Target Uplink needs to be to actually make it effective against the Guardian, and even then it still is not an effective strategy because A) It requires you to go through a huge planning process B ) you

[quote who="RiddleKing" reply="15" id="3145646"]Stick to your same strategy and neglect bombers in rebellion-lets see if you get far[/quote] Read above. @haze: They may, but I didn't have an Akkan so :/ I do see the reason behind your solution though. Although their armor type is heavy and using LRF's to just counter Guardians is probably one of the worst cost decisions you can make.

Reply to Red Button/Repulse both need a nerf. [Devs Watch this replay] in Sins Rebellion Sins Forums

No. Because one unit should not have one counter, therefore it is imbalanced. Also I am going to disregard your analogy because analogies are a flawed argument( read ) "That he resorts to argument by analogy shows his argument is probably devoid of logic, evidence or facts." Again I will make the point, this is not about if I countered properly. This is about the ridiculousness of the ability, you

Reply to Red Button/Repulse both need a nerf. [Devs Watch this replay] in Sins Rebellion Sins Forums

Because bombers do not counter them... Thats the whole point of Halcyons... And Advent mass Defense Vessels anyways.. Although that did not happen in the replay. Just watch the replay and you will understand. The utility of Repulsion needs a nerf. I'll just break it down. I went to attack xenos capital, he had nothing left I wiped out his entire army, this is around where I had somewhere over 20 kodiaks, 20 flak, corvettes, and my capital ship. I watched the replay and even

Reply to Red Button/Repulse both need a nerf. [Devs Watch this replay] in Sins Rebellion Sins Forums

First off anyone that says anything about me being biased knows this isnt true because anyone who plays with me knows I play Advent in 95% of my games, my opinion is the exact opposite of biased, also the Advent are no longer this frail race anymore because LRF rushes no longer work against them. I don't need to be lectured about Advent weaknesses, my whole point is at the press of a button their fleet should not be immune to damage. Hoshikos are not an ace card, and you know that.&n

Reply to Red Button/Repulse both need a nerf. [Devs Watch this replay] in Sins Rebellion Sins Forums

So one single ability is allowed to counter 95% of the lineup of ships. LRF's have multiple counters, Scouts, flak, corvettes. LFS have multiple counters Heavies, LRFS, strike craft. Flak has multiple counters, Heavies, LF's. Im calling bullshit if you expect me to believe that Sabotage Reactor, an Antisupport ship ability, is not supposed to work exclusively on ONE support ship. Also if you actually noticed the time that he got out the Guardians, it was AS SOON

Reply to Red Button/Repulse both need a nerf. [Devs Watch this replay] in Sins Rebellion Sins Forums

There is no actual way to tell if the opponent has redbuff. You can scout a Temple of Communion on a high pop world, you can scout kosturas, you cannot scout a red button you have to assume. And it comes down to game balance. Losing a whole fleet to one ability is broken, game balance > fun. Then again you can say its fun for you to kill the whole fleet, it sure isnt fun for me to lose a whole 700 supply fleet because someone wants to turtle all game.

Not an excuse, there needs to be other ways to counter Red Button than their are available. Aside from that Red Button doesn't even hurt titans that much.

Kostura does not work against Starbases. And Ogrovs do not outrange a full upgraded Red Button.

Yup. http://www.sendspace.com/file/1wl1bm Dont fall for the fake adds, the replay is the button in the center of the screen, not top center. p.s: Repulsion outranges sabatoge reactor(I believe so) Edit: Granted both my opponents played poorly and both reacted poorly even though they had been Red Button'd many times. The imbalance however still shows, you should not ever be able to 1 hit kill a whole fleet u

[quote who="GoaFan77" reply="25" id="3145315"] Quoting Howdidudothat, reply 22I'd like to join the cause to return RB to normal. I never heard of anyone saying RB was weak, so what even started the idea of giving it a buff is beyond me. I thought it was weak but then I've never seen anyone use it on the edge of a phase lane before (even in the replays of pro games). That said, they only buffed the range by 1000/2000. Considering the gravity wells in Rebellio

Pirates need a rework to be honest, but a starbase is almost necessary to stop super weapon spam against them.

New Suggested Game Type: Pirates in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

In short, its a fun idea I've been using coming up with inside my head. It would be awesome if maybe a modder would be able to do this but if stardock were to pay attention I think this mode would be very interesting and none bland as some of the other ones that came out. Also it would make pirates a more viable, and hopefully bridge the gap between being to hard for newbies and to easy for Pro's. Note: I don't expect this idea to really go through or anything. But maybe it w

[quote who="Brazilian_Joe" reply="11" id="3145123"]I think it's silly to have an explosion have a square damage pattern. I mean, 9000 damage 14000 clicks away from the SB, then 0 damage 14001 clicks away. It should be a gradient. Then it would be OK to have a stupid range, since the fringe damage would be negligible.[/quote] This would be a good solution.

[quote who="TerribleNate" reply="3" id="3145070"] quoting post I have consulted several skilled players and all agree that this buff is totally uncalled for and will have negative impact on gameplay. Please, reconsider rolling back RB to it's previous values. Please don't provide hearsay as evidence of a needed change if said skilled players feel this issue is worth voicing concerns over they can do so here on the forums.
