[quote who="Kullvox" reply="11" id="2912804"]JohnJames: correct me if I'm wrong. Are you suggesting I use ICO and create a game with a title like "friend vs." If so, that wont work. Like I said in the OP - I don't use ICO.I'm one of only two on my team that even has ICO. GuitarKid: I PM'd you.[/quote] You can go to ico and post a game title with your ip.

[quote who="Kullvox" reply="7" id="2912708"]Good, most of you at least understand where I'm coming from. So nice to hear there are a few people out there outside my LAN circle who prefer 1 game per night instead of 5. We also like to play DS because it seems well suited for longer games with its tech tree tweaks. We are all patched to the latest version (checksum: 73571136) and are down to play that as well although we have experienced some minidumps with the most recent versio

Reply to Complaint about smurfing in Sins Multiplayer Sins Forums

Clans members play on the same team. Thats the reason to join a clan. You get to play with players you know and trust. SOSE game culture doesnt allow for clan members to play as a team mainly due to the wide difference in skills and lack of players who online to bring proper clan competitiveness. We can restart clan matches again, but most DT members have moved to new games like sc2 and crysis. I can either restart DT or

[quote who="Greyfox2" reply="4" id="2911949"]The only part it makes invalid is him playing crappy one game and good the next. It does not change the argument made against smurfing. One can generally gather how honorable another player on here is by the proportion of time he spends on a "main". [_]-Greyfox[/quote] Playing more on your main does not equal more honorable. You can be a jerk on your main. Better to be honorable always

Reply to Please increase ICO bandwith in Sins Multiplayer Sins Forums

Before ALLOY, ICO just allowed players to start a game and all the traffic gets sync with the host. Theoretically if the host dropped the game would move to the person below the host but if that person didnt setup to port forward on their router properly then game would just end when the host dropped or left the game. With ALLOY, ICO syncs the games also. Therefore if the host drops or leaves, the game doesnt skip a beat and keeps going. The bad thing is if

[quote who="DirtySanchezz" reply="1" id="2907730"]Is there anything you guys can do about the in-game lag on Ironclad Online? It also seems to lag a lot in the chat lobbies. Those of us who use ICO find this very annoying. BUG: In some games, a player will quit but the game will not register his having left, forcing players on the winning team to either mop up or forgo recording a win to their player record. We know that the player has left because we can wh

[quote who="1Tiberius1" reply="9" id="2903710"]I would also love to see someone survive against 7 Vicious AI's all teamed up, what with their quintuple resource rate and mega build-time cheats. By the 20 minute mark you should have ~600 ships attacking you at once. On the flipside, if you start them at Easy, build up a defensive line, then save and load the game with them now set to Vicious... That would make for epic battles. Sa

[quote who="Yarlen" reply="15" id="2905095"]Hi gang, Enemy capital ships will use their Level 6 abilities under certain circumstances, if they have enough antimatter. Generally they'll opt for other abilities, however. As for scouts, they're really meant to just detect the mines so that more powerful ships or squadrons can destroy them. Scouts don't really pack enough firepower to take out mines quickly if when they do detect them.[/quote] Still ha
