Options

Making weapons of all ships and stations (if equiped), to make them less powerful as so battles would last longer and also to extend all ships special weapon energy as it's not enough to get the effect of the weapon during battle.


Please what do you think?

I like that, no problem with it. Make unwinable battles escapable with minimal casualties and ability to capture ships easier.

I like it too. The best part I like about it is capturing ships. Battles sometimes go by too fast you can't do it.

If we did do this we could also decrease weapons recharge time and increase the amount of weapons fired to make it look more realistic.

Isn't there something already from Armada II that decreases the weapon strength?

yep, there is an option in the advanced dialoge..
but be careful with this option cause it does not modify the damage caused by special weapons. it has not been tested with Fleet Operations yet

i have tested it once and i think it works quite well, however that was just for other test purposes. haven't tested it with special abilities though.

alitlle late responding to this but yeah i think it is a good idea as long as it does not last to long.

The point was so the borg cubes have have more energy to assimilate vessels as you need about 10 to 15 cubes to assimilate any ships.

Also as for battles everything is over so fast as the enemy is faster at producing ships and goes on the offensive as your trying to manage with getting resources.

And everyone agrees with me that longer battle time is good as to do that weapon strength must be decreased a lot and maybe shield recharge rate increased slightly, making it easier to capture or assimilate ships.

I kinda agree with you but I still manage to capture some ships anyway, so I'm fine with it now too.

Yeah, hopefully one day will listen to us and actually make it happen. For now people die with the quickness under my wrath.
