Hello all, I'm liking this game so far despite how I feel generally about timer based games. Quick suggestion to any of the fish labs people who may be reading this: while I understand limiting the members per alliance cap to 50 for balancing, it seems like it'll break down the possible game politics to the point where it's non-existent. So why not implement something in game where the higher ranking officers of alliances with NAPs with each other can coordinate? Or at least something to allow communication between allies? This idea is similar to how EVE Online has alliances with multiple corps under them, except maybe on this case a group of "corps" would be banded together. Just a suggestion, would love to know what the people reading this think. This game isn't all that bad for a timer based game. The visuals are really pretty, with the exception of the battle screen (where you see the units you brought along fighting, your carrier, and marines) which feels slightly out of place when compared with the rest of the game.
You will be able to choose a unique name when you pass out of your home sector through your jumpgate, into the outer pvp world. Just hit the back arrow in the bottom left corner 3 or 4 times and that will trigger it. Yes, its dumb, confusing, not intuitive and many got stumped. Myself included.
Ohh ok I thought I had seen a Menel haha, but I couldn't find you again. I only saw this guy named Mene who was a bit of a downer
The alliance membership management sucks. You have to promote people to officer in order to expand membership. You start with a 5 membership maximum, and for every promotion of a member to Senior Officer rank, 5 star, you gain 5-7 additional members. So I have to spam basically strangers into phony leadership roles with power in order to get everyone together. Some assholes are coming in and deleting invites. If you get rejected. This is why. Be patient with us and re-apply. etc.
I just joined the TA alliance. My game user is "kegbennett". Still trying to get the hang of things, but so far enjoying the game. Reminds me a bit of the good ole days of Mafia Wars on FB.
great game. enjoying it so far. learning curve takes some time. Already joined TA alliance. Name is Latency. I understand that TA alliance will split east and west, but how will it happen? Will it happen automatically?
You just hit the jumpgate icon on the lower right to set a name. no need to reinstall. as someone else stated, the game is tied to your gamecenter id
@fishlabs I can't connect to the server to start. It just says "establishing connection to host" Help?!
You know, if I hadn't come to this thread I don't think I would know what the actual goal of this game is. I'm just building some resource things and then... to what end? Am I going to fight with these ships? Who? To what end? I literally don't know why I'm doing what I'm doing.
For shits and giggles. There is much not really well fleshed out. It's very much a rudimentary proof of concept type thing.
