Sins Forums
I was just wondering if there was going to be an expansion of the fleet logistics tree, to allow for more shipe? and possibly some different capital ship/cruiser types?
Thanks
It's probably a hardware limit. Lots of games come up with creative ways of imposing unit caps. Everyone knows gamers want epic battles with massive armies on both sides, but the game slows down to a crawl, especially on certain machines.
I'd like to see an "Epic" checkbox in Game Options, personally. I mean, if you know everybody is playing on a 3 GHz Intel I7 with 8 Gig of DDR3 and an ATI Radeon 5970 on a 12 Mbps internet connection, it would be nice to be able to spam 50 Halcyons with Anime Tempest.
Distant Stars mod allows you to have 32 Caps. And we increase the fleet logistics.
But I doubt you get higher than it is in normal SINS. It helps those slower manchines. As for new ships, the only new ship is the envoy cruiser. Unless IC has some hidden suprise for us.
I must say the logistics tree could use some love. Maybe add research that reduces some logistic cost for various ships, making specilizing a bit more appleaing because it always has drawbaacks. And I would say the cap ship crew thing needs a bit redoing too, like reduce cost for capship upgrades or grant some for free with the regular logistics expansion.
UE? wait a second are you telling me that for a game addon that derived for Diplomacy that you are hoping that they add more Warships to furthur enhance your war monging ways? Im shocked!
I don't think he was saying that. Just that IC does tend to keep things REAL quiet amongst themselves and we don't really know what we may be getting unit-wise. *crosses fingers and prays for spy ships*
