We can organize a 6 man/ship StarBattle fleet composing of our ships and tear through the competition. ;)

If you ask me it's just a very slow (at least at start) version of battleships without terrain :>

I dunno I kinda like the simplicity of the map design. Less lag that way due to less object required to load up on start. ;)

This. It looks awfully slow-paced to me.

Maybe it's more of a strategy game than an AoS, but I don't see much strategy either.

Well my sensei told me to get 3 ulgrades for speed with my first moeny. You also, later in game are able to warpjump. It is a positioning game. Not much micro. A good ammount of tactics is what will get you to the end of the game.

Its not necessary, but its the most safest option. I always do it :p
In a team game, it might not be as necessary since people will back you up if your on the run.

Actually mobility is usually better than strenght, so i totally agree with your statement.

Looks like a hell of a cool map. I just hope they add some more big ship-like mechanics for movement, like slow turning and slow acceleration and stuff like that. And cool special abilities.

And make new weapons to be visible attached actor turret thingies, so you can have more cannons that ship in your ship.

Now that would be awesome.


That video actually almost made me to play sc2 customs again.

Here's a replay of me playing a Destroyer. Note that I didn't bother spending too much cash on abilities until the game almost finished. Because that's how I roll.
Also notice how almost everyone doesn't want to be even near my range the entire game. :)

seemed very slow pace, like turtles in space with some abilties, then again i only played it once so i cant really judge. From my first impression its a decent map, but how is it number 1 on the list i dont know :p

I played the Leviathan. Got owned.

I agree with Incinerate, it was very slow paced. And I couldn't figure out how to get upgrades at first. The icons didn't show up when we started.

I think that you should start with just Team Battles, which is something similar to people making a team and then those teams being paired up aganist one another and we can keep score/leader positions in a fancy scoreboard if you wish.

I think this would be a better option because unlike a tournament which requires a lot of people from the very beginning (and especially since this is a team game) it allows other people to get involved later on and its far more casual. As well it allow teams to adjust if we need to add people or people don't want to be on a team anymore to ether leave or switch to another, and it can even allow different teams to form with different numbers of people, etc.

Nevertheless I do not might supporting whatever you guys intend to do. ;)

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though

    I think we need to add something to the bottom of the front page that shows the Headline News forum that has a link to go to the News Forum Index so people can see there is more news. Do you guys see what I am saying, lets say you read all the articles on the front page and you get to the end and it just ends, no kind of link for MOAR!
