Default Re: A Moo3 Reject

LOL you all are to funny Yeah Mondoo I ran from the MoO3 Boards. My reasons for not liking the game were all discussed by different people, IE no one person disliked it for the same reasons I did, and I didnt see much need in adding in my own 2 cents.

I made the mistake of purchasing it based upon the name as in I have 1 and 2 and was just playing 2 a couple of weeks ago. The nonsense about reading up on the game before purchasing it is just that, nonsense. Heck even one of the developers posted that to those who didnt care for it. If they seriously expected everyone to do that then why even give it the MoO title?
No, they darn well knew people would do exactly what I did. Sorry, just venting a tad.

Still learning some of the in's and outs with the SE4 demo. Keep getting my arse kicked but I think part of thats due to the small map and the fact that I sorta overextend myself trying to get the most and best colonies.

This game reminds me a lot of Stars. It had/has a fantastic taskforce orders system. Havent got far enough yet with this one to really be building to many ships.

At the moment trying to figure out how to build a remote mining ship. I am sure there is stuff posted here just havent taken the time yet to do the searches.

Anyway being seeing you all around.

PS Thanks for the money order tip. I checked on Shrapnels website earlier specifically looking for that and didnt see it. Guess I musta missed it will check more carefully morrow. Again thanks much.

Nah, its a waste to eliminate all those little aliens instead of making them your slaves.

In the Proportions Mod the best way to eliminate a race's independence is with "Assault Troop Carriers" (Destroyer Hull) loaded with 60 Armored Divisions (small troops) each and on the wings of your formation to charge the planet while the enemy fires on your heavely armored BattleCruisers.

If the planet have your own atmosphera type you can even take some of your own race population there to simulate ocupation and enslaving of the defeated race. It doesn't affect gameplay, but it sure looks cool.

Now that we are talking about evil things i'll tell you my worst deed ever.

I made First Contact with the Brobosa States, a neutral race, I propoused a Trade Treaty, but they refused and instead attacked my little tiny scout with like 10 Missiles Frigates and blow them out of space back to stellar dust.
Of course, in our HomeWorld people got very upset, and my goverment sworn revenge for the lives of our braves explorers.

After a long war, at the third attack on the Brobosa Homeworld, and Homeworlds are the toughess pie in Proportions, our Navy suceeded in taking their planet by assault. They had 65 Weapons platforms and hundreds of fighters, so our loses were heavy, with over 200 fighters lost, 3 Destroyers and 3 Light Cruisers. 1 of my 3 Battle Cruisers took so much damage that only the external Armor Plating was left, with all the crew lost to enemy fire.
The ground troops losses were even heavier, with about 40 percent of the troops engaged in battle killed in action. From the 60 Armored Divisions that landed on the first wave no one survived. Only the second Army group managed to hold the beachhead, and then my slow "Heavy Troop Carriers" reached the planet and landed 250 divisions at once.
But then it was when it happened. As revenge for the losses our goverment ordered the extermination of the whole Brobosa leadership and nobility, a total of 20 million people, men, women and children. They were taken from their houses and shuttled to the Troop Carriers orbiting the planet, and then jettisoned out of the cargo holds into space.

It was terrible. I still have nightmares about it.

Malagon and Mondu999:
If its too silent, visit "the cantina" for a healthy dose of cartoon violence. Just introduce yourself and buy a drink on GT's tab ( Don't say I sent you ).
You could also visit one of the political threads and enjoy people casually talk about genocide of real people .
