Should change name from sins of a Solar Empire II to Carrier Fleet combat

It is pointless to make anything but carriers you just walk all over anyone that does not have them AI players star Bases no chance what so ever against Carrier fleets and you can not make anything but carriers or you get wiped out.

That only works on lower difficulties. On higher ones the AI has gotten better and will spam their own fighters but also have fighter screens (flak ships) with them which will keep your fighters suppressed. They won't be able to spawn fast enough to overwhelm, no matter how many carriers you have. I always have a good mix of ships which can handle any situation.

I dont know if i agree, flak frigates are not strong enough in my opinion.

Well it is alpha/beta. There should be a lot of balance changes often throughout the games development. In a equally RPS like comparison, flak should win vs fighter. If not, then obv there needs to be some adjustments.
