Reserved fleets counting towards fleet power

[Cameron07]

so ignorant.. dumbest update ever.. tired of all the noobs whining because they get attacked this is a war game, quit trying to make the main server a pve server.. a pox on you for ever doing this.. so d**n stupid...

[Spayed]

agreed,

btw marines count for power aswell... it boost's power on mains up alot!! its ridiculous..

It does not boost it by a lot lets take a 1.15 Bill cost super ship

It has a base power of 18,275,128

With full marines now it has (18,275,128 + ((6,989,722 *100)/1000)) = 698,972 extra power

That is a 4% power increase due to the update. If you have a marine component ship then it would be a larger percentage due to them marine component decreasing the ships overall power. But it does not increase normal superships power a lot.

So next time do the math before you post Spayed

Kyle is talking about transferring all your money into Marines into reserved ships so you can power down. When you have tons of quad creds then it can increase power significantly so you can't power down.

You guys are morons you keep yelling at everyone for whining about the larger players but all i see is you whining about not being able to unfairly attack people so STFU!!

[Spayed]

no im whining about not being able 2 attack anybody because the only way i can attack is by reserving...

we are the only ones that pvp with any success.. without us main is pve...

u have been able 2 power down and attack for years... why change it now just cause a bunch of noobs that no nothing of the game have a cry cause they get killed..

toughen the f**k up...

[Qualopec]

bullshit if you want to attack people don't shoot up ahead of everyone to begin with try hanging back with everyone else for awhile.
Either quit whining about there being no PvP or quit worrying about making the top ten and getting your prize money.

[Spayed]

dude, i have been hanging back!!

i used 73k turns... i have hardly played since xmas... i would have 2 not play at all to have anyone even close 2 me..

its not like we powered down further then the top 20 anyway.. and people in the top 20 should be hit..

[Spayed]

and ken 4% is a f**k**g lot.. epecially when it shouldnt be there at all..  whiney bitches should f**k off the the pve server..

It does not increase your overall power the credit power is converted in to marine power and no 4% is not a a lot

[Spayed]

its 4% that nobody wants or needs.. its not needed and all it does it take out more types of attacks... cause 4% is alot when attacking..

i have to agree with spayed and cam on this one.  Neither reserved ships and marines should not count towards power

sry but that last sentence doesn't make sense. i understand it but it still doesn't make sense.

and i agree too
 4% of 1 Quint is 40 Quad. if that doesn't seem like a lot then u have no preception of proportion

The problem was caused by the planets, before the planets you couldn't just get rid of workers or segments, so your base power kept you from attacking lower rank players. With the planets you can get rid of both workers and segments.... and as Emi pointed out he loves planets to much to get rid of them this was the only solution.

[Grondavor]

oh haah.  i meant to say "Neither reserved ships nor marines should count towards power"...

its saturday give me a break
