    WTF? LOL, that's the best comeback you could come up with. *facepalm*
    I guess I could just re-posted my other comment again, as it would have still applied to this post of yours too.

    Now I'm Laughing at You LMFAO :lol:

    LOL well I returned the favor this morning... only thing is I was not as nice... i took out everything... lol its a siege missile hit fest.. getting kinda boring... taking out bases with siege missiles with the boosters is no challenge...

    I see you guys talking about the good ol days.. man those where the times... when a BB fleet loaded down with rippers and cutlass ruled the waters... you could flatten a base with mauraders.... or even better yet cutlass levi fleet battles..... if you got killed it was not a big deal your fleet could be repaired in less than a hour. very few had DU4 on their FVF ships and the ones that did were un-stopable.. one of the best times I ever had in this game was the sector I was in we would have longboat battles.. fun fun fun

    Well... good to know that flak ain't worth #$$$^#$%. At the very least, if the missile range is going to stay... flak needs a makeover and please don't take 2-3 months to implement :P

    I know this point has been made several times. By now we all have seen just how effective Siege Missiles are at attacking a base. This video show the CEO of Kixeye steamrolling through my base with a SFB3/Siege Missile fleet. He used 4 Bunker Buster 3’s prior to this attack. One on my dock and the other 3 on Victory Mortars.

    I see you got the same issue as me lagg when you attack bases, that was some laggy hammerheads you got LMAO =)

    Please do not make any more videos containing such awful misinformation. Even your very own boss knows just how fantastic these weapons are at leveling a base.

    True. He tends to attack anyone who denies him of what he wants, as Eric found out. :p

    Anyway thanks Will for the base attack. I'll start work on making an anti-Siege missile base design.

    I don't remember the 5FF merc mainly as I didn't have FF reseached at the time, but I do remember the unguarded mines.
    What about multiple fleets mining from the same mine?

    and of course... if the original video did not punctuate to point strong enough. Here is Kalara (Eric Foley, Kixeye Senior Engineer) using a Siege Missile/Hailstorm fleet. After this occurred, Kalara stated in Comms that he was going to make recommendations that changes be made.

    [video=youtube_share;ddu4XZEmbvc]http://youtu.be/ddu4XZEmbvc[/video]

    Special thanks to Kalara for not going up and trolling my research unlike Will did... Heartless...

    Back when we only needed a level 6 Hull Lab to research FFs. It wasn't until after SWs came out that I finally finished upgrading mine.


    To take ya'll way back, I remember getting pissed every time there was a game reset & we had to start all over again from scratch.

    i agree that there is a slight balance issue in favor of the attacker if you have all of the advanced tech. I wasn't using run of the mill missles, i was using at least 4 d-55-v on each hh. We will be doing something about this though. Attacking should be harder for a very well though out base.

    Btw, i use the rockets because i like them! They go boom.

    M....sleep tight tonight.

    I hope this doesn't = Nerfing the SFB3.

    I'm sure I read it somewhere already but the logical solution is to bring the Flak Cannons more inline with the new dynamics of Solid fuel Boosters. Tripling the salvos and cutting the reload time in half would be a good baseline IMO.

    I would say my base is 2x harder than this to get in. But today i got breech by siege missiles :confused: didn't even kill 1 HH of his LOL. I wonder what is game creator thinking when he made missiles with such range.

    What is on this fleet?
    Doesn't this weapon weight 1,200 tons???
    4x1200=4800 + 12%weight for SFB3(576) = 5376 per ship without other 2 weapons or armor or second special slot?
    Soft cap is now at 5509 to fit 5 in a fleet?

    Shipyard 2. reduces weight by 15 percent of weapons and armor. Take that into account when you do the math. 4080 for 4 siege missles + sfb gets you too 4569.60
    The anti mortars are over powered and you can sit there like he did with vm's firing on you. So, you could do du3 instead of 4 and be okay.

    If they give the Flak Cannon an overhaul to match the new(ish) Draconian weapons it would balance out nicely. Triple the salvo and cut the reload time in half.

    Correct me if im wrong......but I dont think it works that way... Siege missiles are not FORSAKEN tech... shipyard 2 only works with forsaken tech... the only thing you gain is armor weight reduction ... so there is no weight reduction when you put on siege missiles
