The "right settings" in this case are absurd maps like Beachball and weirdly stacked settings involving high starting money and low total money.Dome wrote:QUOTE (Dome @ Oct 30 2014, 06:23 AM) What you are saying is untrue. BIOS is extremely good just because they only need time and very few sectors to mine. If a strong BIOS team can mine two full sectors outside of their home then all they need is to harass, defend well (which is easy since they would only have a couple alephs to mine/defend against).
BIOS turtle strat is viable in squad games, it just hasnt been demonstrated for a while. Don't be so narrow minded. All factions are viable under the right settings.
Otherwise, I might remind you what happened September 28th. And I also think you were there for the 2009 dismantling of XT by PK. If OH and IC can be held to essentially 0 miner loads docked, why can't that be true of Bios as well? BIOS turtle isn't really viable so long as your opponent is a) willing to go all-in in terms of killing miners at the beginning or b) the map and settings aren't set to something ridiculously in favor of bios. If you disagree, by all means pick BIOS this week and prove me wrong.
