Welcome to Starmade, watch out for random pirate attacks... Slightly more dangerous than Minecraft\'s zombies.

Teamwork works on Starmade. Three or four decent frigates with stealth tech can whittle down a lone giant as long as it doesn\'t have backup.

And that\'s it. That\'s all it does. It doesn\'t go through your shields like a hot knife through butter. If you\'re in combat, you\'re not invincible. If there\'s a pirate in an Isanth shooting at you, you can\'t AFK and come back two hours later and shrug it off. You can however take the...

Greetings, and welcome to Starmade. Hope you enjoy your visit to the crazy train.

Uhm... What will that fix, exactly? a 50 DPS turret isn\'t going to do anything to your shields anyways.

2 players both flying a Raven would be able to destroy some pretty big ships as long as they are the ones getting the jump on the enemy. Keep rotating on different axis so the enemy can never see more than one of you, and have one draw attention while the other uses safety to rip apart turrets...

Missiles aren\'t supposed to pierce shielding, but damage it. The same bug happens with other AoE effects such as Dis-Integrators.

When you take all the numbers and game mechanics into consideration, the shield modification is a buff to shield strength against other ships your size (due to increased shield capacity), a nerf to shield strength against things slightly smaller than you (No invincibility thresh hold due to...

That\'s true, missiles deal damage to everything in their radius, even if it isn\'t within line-of-sight to the explosion. How do you think this should be changed?

Missiles have to deal damage to destroy anything. If you have heavy hull and you fire a 1-block dumbfire missile at it, the hull will only take a little bit of damage.

Depends, do they do over 100 times as much damage as the hull has HP? If yes, you\'ve got not only a ship destroyer, but also a planet destroyer.

Greetings, and welcome to the Starmade community!

Frosth shows some good understanding of gameplay mechanics, and I think that\'d be a decent long-term solution, but I can think of a few things that would need rebalancing to fit within your system, namely huge missile boats with enough burst potential that 5% of it\'s damage leaking through...

Smaller ships have nowhere near the same shield regen as larger ones, and docked ships don\'t contribute shields to the main one, only to themselves.

You have my support, and the support of the definitely-not-evil armada of Blitzwing!

Can\'t wait to see it with turrets blasting away!

A big part of the feedback that led to this change is from the testers group, those of us who have been playing for quite a while and have run or participated in a lot of combat/design tests. One of the ideas we\'re trying to promote is that fighting a capital ship should be as fun as fighting...

Oh, good, it\'s nice to have more people capable of logical thinking on the forums. As has been said several times, a fighter still shouldn\'t be able ot take out a capital ship unless it\'s left alone for hours on end to pew-pew it to death, and most of the people complaining haven\'t played...

If anything, I think now is the time to discuss these things so Schema knows what everyone thinks before he changes the economy up. I\'d like to add that I believe spawning ships from the catalog should first check for materials in your inventory and use those if applicable for highly reduced...

Nobody said a single fighter will ever take out a capital ship. If both ships are piloted it is not possible. Have you ever tried attacking a capital ship in a fighter? Usually they spot you and melt you before you can even get itno a blindspot, and if you\'re small enough to run perma-cloak/jam...
