I voted yes because I have had the same problem. Every time i start to get somewhere i run into a killer fleet and am knocked back to where i was a week ago. I keep losing ships with 70 million power on 15-30 million power encounters. There is no real way around them other than to have massive ships on small encounters. I think they need to be changed and I would like to thank Wolfwood for brining attention to it like this.

Emi, looks like you owe me my ships back.

Out of 20 votes 10 said yes, and 8 said no. If you review the first page of votes, remfer origionally voted no, but he changed his vote by stating that he changes his vote to a yes. You said 20 posts would be needed. You have you 3 well known commander yes votes and 10 votes was what your requirement was

I've got an idea.

Screw it. I've recovered from the losses, however, the killer fleet problem still exists.

Emi, how soon can we expect work to be done about the killer fleets?

How about a triggered warning stating that the sensors might have malfunctioned but an estimate power of %power% has been detected in the region or something when the fleets are figured?

To be honest, I would rather see the problem get fixed then get my fleets back and have the problem not get fixed and me get my ships back. If the problem gets fixed, everyones happy. If I get my ships back and the problem still happens, then everyone will be all butthurt and start flaming the forums and the sort.

Please check the updates section:
http://forum.spaceo.net/index.php/topic,1855.0.html

You state here that you do not wish the fleets back as long as something is done, please leave feedback on the killer fleets and how the issue is adressed in the updates topic. If the killer fleets are resolved, I do not think it would be fair to others to give any fleets back.

I also stated that what happened was not a bug, but an increased difficulty due to a higher maximum cost of the enemy fleets.

Most of the commanders that voted in favor voted with the purpose of something beeing done in this matter, so they are free to change their minds, the pool lasts until the end, January the 4'th, and it is not closed yet.

Thank you

Heh nice try Emi. I did what you told me to do. Now you need to do what you said you would do.

"To be honest, I would rather see the problem get fixed then get my fleets back . . . "

This does not state that I do not want my ships back. This states that I would like to see the problem get fixed more then I want my ships back. I NEVER stated that I do not want my ships back.

You also have not fixed the problem because I have been encountering TONS of single fleet combats with tons of ships. You say you have, like you said many times before, but they are still appearing. I guarantee this is still happening.


As for the poll still being opened. You NEVER stated that it had to run for a maximum time. You DID specify that 20 votes would be needed. Wish to try again?

Here's how fleet counters work, as I have received messages about this before. I don't like to spoil the fun, but here it is, always been like this:

- Every fleet on the first attack (first shot) will fire with 100% attack (normal calcs, attack * numbers / accuracy).
- Second shot (this is when the fleet fires a second time in the same battle), random value between 0 - 40% (penalty 60%-100%) of the first shot attack (if it didnt lose any ships, then the first shoot is recalculated)
- Next shots: penalty between 70% - 100%

This explains why you lost the first ship, then received less damage to second fleet (e.g penalty was 85, you received 10 - 15% of normal), then a little more damage from 3 fleet (e.g penalty <85).

This is no bug, in a real combat situation, the projectile will not always miss, but the probability to miss increases as you fire more ammo, and sometimes it will hit when it wasn't suppoesed to...

On another note, this protects the lower fleets against those encounters, so they at least stand a chance, and you don't lose all your fleets in a single battle.

If you still want the ships back, others will have to express their opinion, and you need to make a pool for them to vote, and you need to have at least 3 votes from commanders that I know on your side, and be in majority and win the pool, and the pool should have at least 20 member votes.

God Speed!

Pretty much, they did say yes.

I agree that others should get their ships back however I dont feel they need to get them back. None of them showed proof of game fault and could very well be of pilot error, not game error. I showed clearly that it was not pilot error
