How do you know your FCG level?
When you challenge another player, does your level influence your starting health? Because i've always got 80 to their 125...
Zero, the reason the human ships are "better" is their shape: as lukal said, their weird shapes cause splash weapons to "miss," while most alien ships are blocky with straight sides, which makes them perfect targets.
ahh, but bigbang, i'm not sure if you played when there was MP, but hydras have very very little long range ability, which is the aliens' strong point.
They're very easy to take down with xand blaster/distrupter combos.
Of course, now that there's no mp you don't need to worry about anyone outsmarting you, so the point is moot.
john, yours is a shape that's sides steadily move outwards, and then just as steadily move in, with no edges.
furthermore, its one solid shape.
a shape with no edges
what shape do we know that has no strait lines or edges?
