"Clue that shows the murderer is right-handed." *checks suspects list* Well, then that means it could be... anyone. Everyone here is right-handed. Thanks, clue, for wasting my time.
@Red Night Baron In theory, that's a good idea. But they would get their face wrecked almost immediately out of the gate. The small nations wouldn't be strong enough to play on par w/ the other countries at the start of the game.
@YanilleJ Most players have awesome tech in PvP, so if you want to play defense, you'll have to have even more awesome tech, so you'll need to get to incredibly high levels to do so.
Connection makes sense but... I don't actually think you use a life (or base, as called in game) in multiplayer. I've never lost a base in losing an MP round, but the bases only apply to the campaign.
"Mr. Wayne was found dead, with multiple stab wounds in the study." Nooooooo! Not Batman!!! *sees "Colleague" that's male in suspect list* Gasp! Robin is a suspect????!!!!
@bhol I'm relatively still a newb (not even level 10 yet) but I've managed to to get good gear. The higher levels you get to, the better gear you get and the more creds you make. Any gear at the shop is typically pathetic or not worth the price asked for, so you're not messing anything there. Most of the gear the advanced players got is stuff they've had to work for.
This is a beautiful idea. It's hard to find good RTS games like this on the internet that you don't have to download (reasons for not wanting to download a game are personal). The biggest pet peeve I have is that the AI is basic "die! die!" w/o the need to expand. Sure, they may colonize a planet or two, but they mainly go after your systems. It would be nice to have an AI that has the same limitations as the player and thus expanding before destroying is a good idea.
