I like being an Engineer so far, it's the right amount of intense without making the game feel too PvP based (Which usually intimidates me).
Gunning is pretty simple and if my pilot is doing well, I usually end up doing some gunning -as- an Engineer anyway.

I don't think I could ever be a proper pilot.

If you had used charged ammo you would have gotten the kill. Killed many ships via a meta midion with a slow mortar shooter.

I pretty much have no idea what you just said.

My first and so far only screenshot is thus;



It's neat. One of my first games I helped down an enemy ship (As an Engineer). Felt like I did it but the large version reveals that I didn't get the killing blow. Ah well.

Co-op is a really good point.

I think the game and its community will develop far better with the introduction of Co-op.

Most players wouldn't mind the relatively stressless version of GOIO. New players can get the hang of the game in the less "competitive" mode of the game. Having a good player base for the upcoming Co-op is a really good thing. And the Skirmish and MM could really use a four-digit players online.


Does anybody know how many people own GOIO? It'd be good to have that in this discussion.

My own brother is vaguely turned off of the game due to its primary PvP focus, though I convinced him to get it while it was five bucks before it went back all the way to 20$.

Some Co-Op would be nice, a bit more stress free would make me play the game a bit more. As of now I give it about an hour or two every couple days, not something I could binge on. As with most PvP games, if I lost too many rounds in a row I lose morale and stop playing the game entirely. (League of Legends did that to me, I barely touch it now).

Paid 3 dollars for the game, then another 5 for cosmetics.
You're welcome?

I think myself as a decent team player. Won my first four matches because we had a guy with a mic who knew what he was doing. He called the shots, and I followed. It was a lot of fun.

Then I lost the next few I played because it didn't have that level of direction.

I see you've taken a notice to Engineer by the looks of your level stats. If you want some pointers from a fellow engi, I'd be willing to teach what I know (still learning from fellow Gents above me actually), and get ya familiarized with ship layouts and the like.

I like the Engi, because I can still help with gunning sometimes if the match is going well and we're not taking hits. I'm not bad on a gun, so I might do some side-leveling as a Gunner at some point.
I'll give you a friend request later on.

Q&A / Are there Botmatches?

« on: December 20, 2014, 08:35:26 pm »

Is there a function where I can face against AI opponents, even if at a reduced XP rate?
I feel there's a bit more to learn.
I won four matches with what feels like was a pro on a lower level, then I lost the next few I played without him.
Not sure if he just carried us, or if I am just garbage at this game.
