Hey! Isn\'t this too easy?!
 

Well I recived the game about a week ago here in Romania http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

I was very excited about it having played the demo...

Instaled it.. indeed the game was very nice...

BUt after 3-4 days of playing (about.. 6 hours a day) i finished all 3 campiagns and that is without a sweat.. i mean this was really easy...

I played the game at 2x-4x (didn' want to play at 8x) and i did take advantage of all i could (injured terran ships etc)...

But i did nothing to cheat... the campaigns seems really easy to me. The Last campiagn was indeed nice, i was a little angry i couldn't buy the Sithrak dreadnought having 6.000.000 credits from selling some found fighters and mines... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

In conclusion the Aaraon Hall or who ever designed the campaigns could have made them a bit hard...

Lucky for them that SE : SF is mod-able http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

What difficulty were you playing at? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Re: Hey! Isn\'t this too easy?!
 

I play at average... but i don't think that really matters... probbaly the AI is better at hard and the ships have more hit points or what?

Re: Hey! Isn\'t this too easy?!
 

Well, on the hardest the ships get heavier. A lot heavier. And more common.

I played the game on expert from the start, and I thought it was too easy as well. Once I got past the first half or so of the game and got a decent ship, not even the large Groups of Sithrak ships could slow me down much. Though, I have to say that wading through crowds of ships was pretty fun http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

indeed... :-D... using 2 toxic injectors i would kill in one or 2 shots the Sithrak ships http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

Re: Hey! Isn\'t this too easy?!
 

Have you tried Psychic Flailers yet? Those are WAY too nasty IMHO in the unmodded game. My Abbidon Battleship has 4x Psychic Flailers and 2x crew toxins, and nothing can stop it, except dying, crewless ships running into me http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Re: Hey! Isn\'t this too easy?!
 

I've noticed that the crew killers make things much easier. If you aren't using them you will find the Sithrak ships (and others) pretty . It seems to me that logically shields should protect against them, at least for the toxic injectors, and probably for the psychic weapons as well. Then they wouldn't be the uber-weapons that they currently seem to be.
