They need to be stronger or whats the point of using them, u can only get 3 fairly useles ships?

lol I think their very powerful, although having a limit on them and them being an abomination only matched by a few Klingon ships is sad.

Get rid of the evil decent class, it is the laggiest ship I have seen in the mod. Replace it with a prometheus, that u can make with a cupple of sqaures and some good texturing tools

NO WAY IS PROMETHEUS GONNA BE LOW-POLY!!! IT IS A GOOD-LOOKING SHIP. IT NEEDS TO BE HIGH POLY!!!

Sorry, I just like the Prometheus. But, the Descent is integral to the FO Storyline, so it should be redesigned, not replaced. And they are FREE!!

mh well.. perhaps we will replace the descent class with the prometheus class and make the descent class a campaign unit.. let's see to it.. but not for beta3, i have to limit the work, i want to release it some day

I agree it's no where near as important as the dominion.

Priority List:

1: Avaters
2: Dominion
3: Maps and NPCs
4: Prometheus

Maybe the Promethues can have 2 Phasers and 1 Quantum Launcher?

The decent class needs to be lower poly if it is to continue it's existance, it shouldn't KILL my fps, LOL. The prometheus doesn't need to be high poly, medium poly perhaps, I just don't want the ship to kill FPS.

I only get probs when I start fighting with about 50 ships at a time or more. Not bad ones tho.

Admiral what are your computer specs, expecialy in the area of ram and videocard.

I bet it's card related. Maybe processor but armada2 isnt that graphic intense.

Admiral Chemix, make sure you have the latest patch (for Fleet Operations, not for a2) installed.. there was a problem with the Descent causing incredible low frame rates

sorry, I didn't know there was a patch, DLed and fixed. Still causes a tiny bit of lag but no more than a tavara does.
