Other than allocating more memory for the game to use, there isn't much you can do.

I want to marry Onslaught-sama!

What are some good 8-10 point ships to assign to my carriers?

>Your Flagship now has an AI based on the ship itself and interacts with you via humanoid hologram

What is she/he like and what does she say about you?

She'd be pretty mad that I'm using a cargo ship for combat.

Wondering why I don't just let her control all the guns since she can probably aim better than I can.

>What is she/he like
Hyper with a short attention span, but always wants to see new things
>what does she say about you
Don't know. Can't hear her over the shrieking of her childbearing hips

>tfw these threads keep dying

Well there was a good reason for the last thread to die. Someone spammed furry porn on Veeky Forums and killed every thread. Also happened on /v/.

oh really? I missed it. I saw someone say the same thing in for honor general too though.

someone on another general took a cap of it, hope I don't get banned for showing you it

wow, what a mess.

Just found this game entirely by chance, heard about some attack and checked the catalog to see what it was. This looks very much like my type of autism.

MODS PLZ BAN

that other thread i visit didn't die

it's a great game, well worth the 15 bucks. just bear in mind that it isn't finished and won't be for a while.

FGO was saved by the combined shitspamming of gilfag and lancefag.

Why do all of my planets have -5 smuggling.

Its Alex way of saying stop pirating my game

Well shit... Someone hates video games that much, or just likes Furry nuts that much.

Or has a very, very unhealthy fetish for Pokemon that involves a painted dog or two.

On to the topic of SS though.
yeah, it has some good mods in it:
Black Crack Drives being a user-favourite

ShadowYards for the trippy Colors and cool style

Intersteller Imperium (Fucking Space Romans with a fuck-ass-cruiser-sized-missile that can ruin a fleet or three)

And then some shitty-teir Mods like

NGO
New Galatic Order Which takes basically Space-Nazis and has sprites from another game (WITH PERMISSION OF THE OTHER GAME'S DEVELOPMENT TEAM).

A mod called something Research Institute something which is just sort'a weird mash'aships...

That's fuckin' Funny. Like the Scorpion in Duke Nukem or how the game Degrades to shit in ARMA III i think. xD

If you're talking about fighters, then Gladiuses or Talons. Broadswords if you have bombers. If you can scrounge up some extra OP, Khopeshes aren't bad either.

I'm talking about sortie points. For example a dominator is 25.

This number is often but not always the same as monthly maintenance.

>Blaming furries when /stsg/ had no weekend thread
t. as someone who missed the furry spam

What do you guys think of the Apogee?

civilian systems on a ship = terrrible
flares are the worst too

Most destroyers that can fit long range weaponry work well for that. I like Enforcers or Diable's Derecho.

solid cruiser, especially if you're doing stuff like prospecting. I liked it better when it had the sensor drones instead of flares though

Maybe SO plasma? 700 base flux diss is pretty good.

Is tartiflette aware that bounties doesn't even appear with a typical diable start in nexerelin + dynasector?

For bonus points, the mod about space Nazis, is made by a literal Neo Nazi. If it I did not know for a fact it is true, I would not believe it. It just is too much.

>is made by a literal Neo Nazi
do you have a single snack to back that up?

What website do you think you are on fking libtard shithead

Yes

I wouldn't be surprised if he actually believes that. These days you are a literal neo nazi for just wanting to gas tri-jews and remove sindrian kebab..

Hey, fuck the far left.
And the far right.

Nah, totally legit. Holocaust denier quotes, listens to Hitler youth music etc etc.

Here's some damn proof: fractalsoftworks.com/forum/index.php?topic=10668.msg181888#msg181888

For you lazy fucks that don't want to click:
Ahne is german and a synonym of Ahn, the plural is Ahnen (in english Ancestors or Forefathers/old norse forfaĆ°ir, someone who originated an idea or tradition at least a generation before you).

I am linked to my Ahnen within my mind, i will try to carry on their ideologies and values. I respect them more than anything and i hate the new generations of my country. So, thats how i got to my name. In memory of the glorious but nowadays wrongly condemned times. History is written by victors.

1488
If caring of your people and your family makes you a Nazi
Then I'll be a Nazi

>If it I did not know for a fact it is true

I hope you're just some brazilian baitposter and not actually for real. NGO is a great mod and if you're such a meek fool that you can't even emphasize with the ideals of fascism even a little in a fucking video game there's not much to say since you're beyond help.

so what's the problem then? do you have something personally against him? whenever I see him post he's always respectful.

Convergence Issues: The Cruiser. Front smalls and rear mediums need babysitting to get them to fire, and you can't sidestep the issue like you can with the Aurora by simply mounting missiles on them. Let your AI officers fly this one.

>more polshit
Post you sexiest fleet, bitches.

>Getting so absolutely fucking triggered that anything even remotely german is immediately Nazi
SHUT IT DOWN

>lvl 29 officers

>tfw skill bar isn't big enough to fit all skills

>playing by Alex's bullshit settings

NGO is a mediocre mod at best.

>just picked up irrelevant d-mods paragon #4
This run is ridiculous.

What are the Omens for?

>Trifires suddenly start shooting at a near 45 degree angle
what
>Error: Our system thinks your post is spam. Please reformat and try again.
I'm sorry, what

High Res Sensors and general disruption. They tend to die quickly, though.

Frying fighters and any enemy Ass that it can get to so it's a fancy spine-rock in space.

>NGO's maker is a fucking nazi
>NGO IS FUCKING CRAP!
>NGO IS THE FUCKING CRAP!
>Now wonders if NGO has a Manifesto in its code...

Personally, I think the Mod is yeah, a bit Mediocore. Awesome that the guy got some cross-game shit going, But... It's just beam death crusiers basically. Not much more to it, an the thing is a bit buggy sometimes.

Now if he's actually a Nazi? Other than that, the only way'd we know is if someone with a Fedora going in and hacking the shit an looking through his computer somehow.

Metelson should warn you that the faction is unfinished

Doesn't have really any decent ships, the only thing going for it is that it has pulse lasers with way better flux efficiency.

I don't see anything nazi about what he wrote at all.

I suppose this makes me a nazi.

So why the fuck not. Now stop with the nazi hateor we will get angry. And I bet you still remember the last time that happened.

Thoughts on this Enforcer fit? Designed as a carrier support.

is the Requiem from a mod? Which one?

It is good-looking.

fractalsoftworks.com/forum/index.php?topic=10046.0

>>Now wonders if NGO has a Manifesto in its code...
We're hitting autism levels that shouldn't even be possible

It kind of says so on the title.
Then again the Furfag hasn't even changed the title or his "CEO Letter", whatever the fuck that is.

The Enforcer doesn't have anywhere near the flux capacity for all those guns. Double HVD, one Mauler and two Flak Cannons in the side mounts would do a lot better for you as an escort.

What would you grab with the remaining ten or so points? Flux distributor? Hardened Subsystems? Armored weapon mounts? advanced turret gyros?

Integrated Targeting Unit if you have it. Distributor is fine otherwise.

outposts when

if someone modded them in they'd probably just get called a nazi

>some guy posts about how Hitler did nothing wrong, gets called out
>half a dozen anons take it personally
Yeah, uh-huh. Whatever you guys say.

I voted for Hitler

Nyeah... Stop bitching. Someone thinks he's a Nazi, someone think's user is triggered and a whole shit load of other crap.

When it comes.

Though I have to wonder, can we fight with our stations if they're under attack? Similar to how Drones defend their Motherships?

That's gonn'a be awesome... heheheh.

who took it personally? just sick of people whining, especially when its "you can't have a nazi mod, it's [current year]!"

>being this dense and stupid
I pity you user... But do the world a favor and don't breed

Every time NGO is brought up, you always chime in about him being a Nazi. Every. Time.

it's the calling out that bothers me

if you look at what that user posted it was some stuff about german paganism

i mean, even if that guy was full hitler-did-nothing-wrong, i don't see why you should hate on him. it's a popular historial view with substantial historical basis.

whether or not the 1488 crowd is factually correct and all that, who the fuck cares. they like something you don't like and you have a meltdown.

it's mental. cut it out. this is not /pol/, it's a video game thread about a space war simulator.

Can we get back to the topic of Star ships going Pew-pew and how Metelson does or does not suck?

>Defeated the battlestation
Is it time to wipe the save and start over with some other faction?

The votes are in, and it's a tie

What ya' got going in the mods? If no mods, GET MODS!

Also, which station a REDACTED?... I've not met a REDACTED yet.

Cool... So Mid-tech wins.

>six people post on /stsg/

Where's the option for best tech AKA mid tech?

>mid tech

Think hammerhead

Get Ship/Weapons Pack and defeat final bounty, gud luck

user was right about the armor, but I still don't know what's best to put instead of the tac lasers

might leave it empty or put in some more PD.

Is there any advantage to mounting a smaller weapon in a larger mount?
Small weapon in a medium mount, medium weapon in a large mount, etc.

flux and money considerations

And install Underworld and beat the Dick(erson)s

Bonus points if you become Alpha Dickerson

You need to show us the actual fit screen instead of these manlet sized mouseovers so we can actually see what fucking slots you're talking about, senpai.

1024x768 is the way the game was supposed to be played

you need to reevaluate the entire fit if you find yourself downsizing your guns

dead game

Bad weapon locations, really ugly when you use the large mounts.

4/10 it's shit

It WAS better before with the drones as they helped offset the lost range on the already short ranged guns

this thread dies every nite

Has awkward mounts and a sup-par ship system for it's weight class, there are cheaper more effective means of conducting a planet survey. It's sensor boost would be worth something if fuel tankers were not giant space beacons. Overall expensive civilian grade trash.

Will it live again when TianDong updates?

A link to download the game in OP would help
And an official stsg pastebin

My Eagle-chan sucks at aiming.

Seems like the majority of that mod's preset variants have fucked up OP usage.

>play nex
>hegemony down to a single system
>church wiped out
>leauge got 1/2 of tri-tachyon bases
>blackrock holds jangala

What a mess

Also, someone said that the first market you conquer defines what types of ships your faction gets (I started as independent), is that true?

I don't think so. data/world/factions/player_npc.faction in the Nex folder is what I think defines it.
I could be wrong, though.

hegemony deserves to get blacked

Are longbow bombers any good?
