Timer on drones. phc spends 50 quanta for line of sight for a limited amount of time. the same mechanic should apply to substrate IMO. let's say I see drones deployed and I use quanta to block abilities and to save my worker. after 1 min, the drones are still there and the turret will drop on the rads so it's pretty bad game design. If let's say i have fast fingers and I counter block the drones and if
what to fix? I mean really? this is the new strategy? use drone that stays forever untill have decent aa, use craptower on rad node and watch phc die? that is very funny. and if phc doesnt somehow die, that drone that stays forever is used to deploy sappers. this is beyond bad. drone ability to give vision needs to go after 10 seconds
How does ranking really works? Last thursday and this thursday I was neck on neck with Danail for the first place for few points difference, I was still rank 1 at 16:50 (GMT + 2 Easter Europe Time) nad at 17:00 the ladder is set and the gap beetwen me and Danail is more than 10 points? How is that possible, is something that I am missing?
this is something that I would like to be fixed in the future. Dividing an already small player base is not that good. Maybe Gog version should have let's say half the price but be marketed only for single player purposes.
[quote]After Escalation ships, we are considering creating a multiplayer only edition of Ashes of the Singularity (Tournament). You wouldn't be able to buy this version. Instead, everyone who buys either Ashes of the Singularity or Escalation would get 8 keys to give out to people. Those people could then download the Tournament edition.

No need to put a ticket in, there is something wrong when giving the quit command, because the process remains active in the background. To start the game again you need to kill steam or ashes from the task manager or else you will get the message game is already running.
[quote who="peter_neate" reply="4" id="3649398"] I logged a report against Knigge. Spent 4k+ in gas, yet mined less than 1k. Had 36k qanta after a minute or so. [/quote] I have played against knigge and lost, but didnt bother to check the graphs. It did suprised me, because when i had the first 3 furies he allready had 2 armories and was 30 sec away from completing a dread pad. I didnt bother to put a defense other th
It is not power is more like straight up abuse. Never did this to me and it was painful. I have basically locked the map with phc and from that point I was expecting to just plain outmacro until I get hit by the punisher combo. 6 of those guys sniped all my orbital defense and got nuked systematically. The same thing happened on my nexus too and he almost turned the game with that. I don't think they should work like that, like long range aerial snipers that can dps
I have one suggestion: please remove the bug that allows players to hear orbitals deployed by the other players without having line of sight to them. I can hear orbital drops like engineer drop, probing force, avatar and so on. Just stop this pls
DasUnding chatted with me about this fellow and I have told him to use support. Since I have used support before about this issue in the past and nothing was resolved, I will post this here and on the steamforum untill this guy gets banned for life as it should. Didimau pissed 8.5k quanta on me before the 10 min mark and actually attacked into two se
It is a very good sugestion. It is a chore to queue in legendary rank, bots are killing us with boredom and it is extremely frustrating. All of the above sugestions are good and I would like to remove them completely once you have rank 4 or more
[quote who="Baalonthus" reply="43" id="3647842"] Nope, not gonna by this game again. I am already a founder level for this game. Now I have to buy an expansion? I understand the need to make money but this seems a slap in the face of founder backers. Sorry will not be purchasing this one, I will just wait 6 months until you discount 75% on steam. Very disappointed with the Stardock Team and are you guys ever going to fix Servo? [/quote] Found
I have a request. Please delete bots queue for legendary rank! It's annoying. BTW I bought the escalastion exp, game is good and deserves to be supported.
building hp in end game. without it your orbitall nullfiers will get sniped
Happened the same thing. No Nexus and 3 pop cap. had to exit

Avatar is a T2 Cruiser. 90 quanta means that sub has to make a choice! cap the map with avatar or unlock the 100 pop limit. much more strategic than rally god knows how many assemblies in phc heart while capturing and building defense everywhere uncontested.
At last the avatar has 90 quanta as it should have been. great patch
24-27 should be the time when you die to cronus so it's ok. Try to skip producing units, you need dreads to hold of cronus attack. Hyperion, Prometheus and all Cronus after that point. quanta matters for upgrading your units. there is another thread about it, you need three point defense, two top, one bottom but there are ppl that are defending on high ground.
The main problem is the player base and not the match system. There are nigths when you play vs the same player 2-5 times in a row at the point in gets tedious really fast. Single race queue will spread the players even more so it's not really reasonable to do this. What I would like to see in the future is 2v2 and 3v3 modes, but again this will not be viable until we have a larger player base.
Notice the sustained dps that dominators have air to ground. killed the worker just by looking at it... if a fury tried that it would have died of boredom :) "i think you guys are jumping a bit to fast one thing, there is one thing the substrate always have to pay a lot more of, that is radioactive and metal both in fact. orbital buildings are lot more pricy in terms of radioactive." Cool story bro. please do try to e
PHC needs 4 rads to keep 3 armories going. Why should sub be more special? Why would sub be allowed to invest the extra rad that they save from the assemblies that cost only metal, in avengers? Where is the balance in that? Where is the ballance in having mass assemblies fueled by quanta? It feels like one race is confined at 1-2 tier 2 factory while the other race is very fluid and can redirect resources in all of its production to other expensive units. on the go, with
I have played vs Grandor and he is v good with phc. Beat him with little problems without using overcharge spending half of my reading tooltips. I dont see any reason to play sub and from my feedback, i can bet alot of players can now abuse substrate in a proper way. All I need to know I have learned from high ranked sub players. From my games vs.danail I have learned that if I cant force a fight in a chokepoint, in the first 10 min with an emp and to follow that.up with a kill, he wi
This is a post for all the noob substrate players that have complained about PHC refinery. You have no excuse for not matching your economy vs phc in teamgames: Overcharge - Temporarily boost a single Power Generator or Amplifier's output with a short-lived unstable Sohow this thing works? From my games vs danail and other top substrate players, I have seen they don;t even bother to play the avatar. if they make these, they use them to cap and construct
