Matoeu: You need to buy some more ammo based weapons then, people spamming laser beams and recharging quickly is what I have been trying to rebalance.
I am constantly trying to keep the game as balanced and as good as possible allowing for a range of tactics and ship configurations. Its a tough job and sometimes things will go wrong, let me know your opinions but don't whine at me. I'm doing my best.

Knucktwo: I lowered the ammo on thunderbolt mines because they were too powerful, but raised the ammo on others. Energy cell was too useful and allowed people to spam laser beams. I want weapons balanced so that they all have their place
TerryS: Its not "missle beats all", its "missle beats some", before short range high power weapons were the only things worth having in MP. Putting the balance back a bit towards long range but dodgable weapons should make PvP a bit more interesting. Less about what equipment and more about how you fly.
Turrets are no problem if you have the right weapons, and if you cant beat them, don't attack them!

Knucktwo - Aliens DO NOT have an advantage. Aliens have energy cell, yeah, and alien's energy cell has also been reduced. Aliens do not have energy extraction beam. Humans do. Aliens have no energy source, while you guys can use energy extract. Human's PCB now owns UVB..they both have timers, and PCB is instant-kill, while it takes a while to be overcome by the vortex. Plus PCB is cheaper. Plus UVB is one-time use, and PCB can be reloaded..I think? Plus PCB has a larger range...

I personally killed an Elite Destroyer when I was at the captain level. It popped up during a Top Secret mission.
Also, the constant tweaking of the game towards a missile-beats-all based has immensely ruined the fun of the game. Having only one bubble shield per slot and now only two energy cells per slot equals a lame-duck scenario. You can only take out two or three units (or one-two defense turrets) before you run out of fighting ammunition. but since the missions require at least 5 (rejuvenating) kills per sector, you basically just rely on your allies.
Seriously, take away the unbalanced defense turrets and give several of each utility/weapon instead of just one. Constantly needing to dock is just killing more potential play time.

The game is screwed up now... Somebody lowered the ammunition on some mines and energy cell... Gives aliens a huge advantage. Makes me mad.

Here's a good glitch: I am an alien. I was raiding the main station at 11-9 when my game froze. So I quit the program and logged back in. And then I was like...wtf? It turns out I docked into a human base by accident. And I joined the Kongregate Krushers. The End.

When using the stand-alone, downloaded version of the game, the Flash control menu creates a built in bug for this game. By using the keyboard shortcut Control-Enter ('Play'), weird things happen. If you have already activated hyperspace, then pressing that shortcut automatically advances you to the Entering Sector loading screen. Additionally, if you are not using hyperspace, even if you don't have one loaded at all, the same shortcut 'hyperspaces' you to the center of your current sector. It breaks any locks your opponents have on you, refreshes shields, energy & weapons (not sure about Large ones yet). It even ignores tractor beams & EMP disability. I found no situation in which it did not work.
Credit should also go to grundish & redenmity for helping me test these situations.

Hmm, besides, I think Defender > Destroyer. I just can't see how the Destroyer is so good. Yeah, 5 regular weapon slots. I filled them with Photon Bomb(or Laser beam, I chose Photon Bomb), Xan Blaster, 3 Thunder Bolt Torps, Energy Cell, LASS, Proxy Blaster(I could choose Thunder bolt but the life cost is really high), Vortex Bomb(not ultra) and Level 3 Mining Laser. THe engine is the best engine, at 300k+++

Jeez. Now that energy cells have had its ammo reduced, we aliens have no proper energy source. At least give aliens energy extraction beam or something. And energy extraction should be restored to how it once was, its kinda rubbish now. Hope you fix these problems.

yeah, and make some badges for it too. I liked Matoeu's idea man, and this game should be the better in this site if it had one more race and more weapons. 5/5 for sure!

Same here, I cant login to the game. When I press login, it just remains at "Checking username and password..." and nothing happens. I can login as a guest though, nothing wrong with that. Post if anyone else has this problem.

Andy, if its a graphic thing it's usually easy to notice, for example, the smoke from low-health ships is new. King, I didn't mean to spam. Also, I don't even see you on the list for PVP.

Hmm, this game has some wierd tags attached to it.
Btw, is there a way for us to know what are the changes between versions? For example what's different between 1.1.0.and 1.1.1?

Ariao, did it ever occur to you going into a multi player sector with one life would be a stupid idea? I’ve used Ultra Vortex bombs, and they can only kill players twice. Plus, since you are slow, an ambush could kill you. Next time, try thinking instead of demanding a game be changed because you didn’t have the foresight to buy 3 lives.

I usually play on college computers but the games just won't come up, that all stupid I hate educational computer networks

Dots, I can't see why people complain about the lives. Perma Death must exist for anybody to say "OMG I GOT AMBUSHED" and not "Lol, another ambush...I have more than 32k lives"
Live with it!
