Title: Noob protection
Post by: Steampit on June 14, 2006, 05:42:18 AM
Is there something like noob protection in this game, I'm playing for few days and I still learning and testing the game. In this time I was attacked 6 or 7 times (4 times within last 8 hours)and lost my fleet and many of segments of my mothership. I don't have enough credits to create new fleets. It's not fun to be destroyed over and over again and this is the game and should give fun to all that are playing

There is no such thing as protection for new players, but there is something that's called a "nebula", you will enter that when you lost 20% or more of your total power, you will then be safe from attacks for 24 hours or if you  attack someone, you will then automaticly go out and can be attacked then, unless you attack the person who attacked you why you got in a nebula, then you use a counter, if you use that you won't lose your nebula, for more help try and read the guide...

Alliances are always a good way to go... Another tip: You probably shouldn't waste your time trying to join an alliance in the top 5, unless you have developed a good reputation and have established yourself as a good player. I would recommend searching for an alliance that is recruiting and has an experienced or reputable player as the leader. You could probably message during the game and ask around to see who is recruiting.

most, but not all, and you can't see alliance descriptions unless you are near the alliance.

you can always see the alliance description I thought, just look at alliance rankings and there are all the alliances...

eh, forgot about that, had a long day, hehe. Of course, that takes a long time to look through those to find the alliance you want.

My policy is: "Life sucks enough already, why get mad at a game too?"

Exactly. That's what I tell my friends when I accidently leave the goal unguarded so that I can charge at an attacker, then they pass the ball and their team scores. It's only a game, and it's there fault for putting a defender in goal. It's not like the game matters either, we'll just play another one with different teams next lunchtime. What I don't get is why people take games so seriously. They're supposed to be fun, not something to get angry about.

thats excally why i help everyone, just in a forceful mannor...

what i usally do is attack someone with no mucey then teach them how to defend against me...

tell them excally what to do then when i cant beat them they pass :p that or the quit beacuse i overdo it... Ricu was one of the ppl who beat me after a while same with Ronald, and look were they are now *im so proud :D*

but my noob protection is accident or not if one person from your allaicne attacks me, or my allaies when im online and can see it ill do my best to take out the whole allaince of the person who attacked...
