Default Re: Worst Games Of SEIV You Have Ever Played

Umm... this is hardly like Starcraft. There are a lot more paths to victory than the 1 or 2 per race as seen in Starcraft. Don't let one bad experience sour your view on PBW... blindly rushing for PPB is actually a bad thing (possibly even a noob mistake ), as you can be defeated easily by someone that gets DUCs, Combat Sensors and ECM. They are a much more powerful combination than just someone using PPBs, and their ships are a lot cheaper too. Combat bonuses and ship costs are much more important than just raw damage. Of course, there are a lot more factors than just these few to consider. Comparing a strategy game to something as simplisitic as Starcraft is silly. There are a wealth of options to explore.

Of course, then there is the plethora of mods to consider that drastically change the status quo...
