Yeah the squre formation and a normal attack pattern gets a bit monotonous at times..

Wall formation is the best I think, nothing better than to see a group of enemy ships meet a wall of Sovereign's.

if they do add some more attack patterns hopefully they wont be so static in the way that they move and add to that some decent names for them like

Omega attack formation
Attack pattern Alpha

stuff like that would be really kool

Yeah,

Also ,on FO when u are in a battle your ships face the ships that they are attaking ,that is unrealistic.

the ships should be zoomin around their enemies instaid of just floating there like weightless cabbage potatoes!

I liked the "darting back and forth" thing in original armada 2, it was cool, I used it for all the smaller ships.

I perferred the one where the ships would go around their enemies in a circular motion - it was kinda cool

same here

or rather i had my smaller ships doing the darting back and forth, my medium ship would do the circle thing, and my larger ships would do the jousting maneuver

I hated the one where they went Up and down - that was annoying

It was pointless,
Also it must take ages 2 get yur littles doing whatever there are going 2 do,
then get yur mediums to do what ever their are goin 2 do,and then the same with the biggens.

It must take a while
