id rather play a 2 hour game of exp than a 30 min one of sup v sup

It's your world Brood, we just live in it.

wtf?

Htt's obviously need a perk

Meh...to satisfy the Int Lords without nerfing heavy ints, Pico by making pure exp games challenging and yet make Sup more acceptable, put heavy ints in sup (note: reg ints still in exp, but tech tree would be ADv Exp + basic sup to get access). Surely Brood will enjoy sup more, and you require Supspansion for the damn things so it takes more time to get them. HTT capping becomes more probable, and heavy Int miner killing is not as accessible.

Is there a down side? just the wait and rocks

that was easy...now to wait with my fireproof suit on....

the reason exp vs exp games last so long is because their endgame sucks and they need to mine for a second tech to end it

and the fact that mini3 hvy ints can stop almost any endgame dead in its tracks (in a PUG).

lol mini3 stops sbs? fb runs?(well yeah if you're tf) didnt stop xrm either.

XRM is now to weak for an average sized game to kill anything with. PP to counter sbs. FB has difficulty dropping far enough, and from my own experience I have seen it not work.

For every endgame, a very good team can pull it off even with the enemy having mini3. However, in a PUG, it will often result in nothing happening.

Figbees beat hvy ints. And that's the only way to do it. Well, sbs MAYBE but it's hard with pulse probes around. It's dull playing quake in space for ages until you have fbs.

I'm still annoyed XRMs got nerfed to uselessness after a community poll with the options "keep" and "remove" ended in the result being "keep"... they required more effort than fbs imho to pull off on average, and we generally more fun.

Meh, exp have the strongest defensive ships, the strongest miner-killing ships, it's only fair that their base-killing tech is not the best. Otherwise we would never see any other techs.

I'd like to see this one put to a vote!
