***The (renamed) official Ogame thread***

dont worry lol hes still away : [Thirael] Planete of Yves 1 ( Yves(i) )

anywya im pretty sure lots of others have probed and im pretty sure some have even attacked him as sometimes theres big debris fields there
 
has anyone else noticed a lot of planets dissapearing over the last 24 hours?

two seperate inactives that i was attacking/fleetsaving to overnight seem to dissapear before i got there so my ships just came back empty and now the planets are just gone

i wonder does your account get removed if you are inactive for say 6 weeks or something? or you think it's just coincidence and both these people came back to find their planets had been attacked a lot and just got shirty and quit?
 
I just noticed - when anyone gets a Death Star then it might be a good idea to send it on raids - it's got a cargo hold of 1 million res. Of course, the slow speed sucks a bit, but on the other hand 1 million res is nothing to sneeze at.
 
hey, sry i hvant replied sooner im at work... just on me 1st break now

i have fleet saved, trouble was my 20 large cargos and 50 small cargos along with all the capacity of my battleships and cruisers and that was only enough to fleet save half my resources

so that left around 600k metal 400k crystal and around 250k deut left on the planet with

30 missile launcher
75 small lasers
15 heavy lasers
5 gauss cannons
20 ion cannons
1 small 1 large shield

of which there is:

9 missile launchers
14 small lasers
1 heavy laser
6 ion cannons left

so my whole defence has gone !

his attackers were within the bashing rule, your allowed to send 3 waves which = 1 attack as long as they're within 30 minutes of each other right ?

he attacked twice within 2 minutes, then twice again about 2 hours later

this was all at 2am and 4am this morning :(

jc just probed him but lost his probes... so there really isnt anything i or anyone can do, hes ranked 43rd so thats that :(

i've turned my mines down to 0% as i anticipate he will probe me again tonight/early tomorrow morning so nothing is being produced

non of my fleet was harmed, other than solar sats and espionage probes.... i ant spend any resources atm because of the nanite factory being built, but that finishes at like 12:30am this evening so i might just stay up, wait for my fleetsave to come back, set up afew raids and send all my resources into some decent defence

it is a right pain in the bum tho :(

he stole: 450k metal, 350k crystal and around 175k deut

******* :mad:
 
its when you load your resources up on your cargo ships and attacking ships (fighters, cruisers, battleships, bombers etc.) and send them away for a period of time, until your next online to look after your affairs

my fleet is due to arrive back this evening just before my nanite factory finishes construction, at which time raids will be sent out and any other ships left after the raids are under way will be sent to a DF at like 50% speed so they arrived tomorrow when im home from work :)

Whats this fleet save i keep seeing? <noob :)
It's when you send your fleet away (usually to a debris field, when you have a recycler), and you time it so they will return when you get back online.

For example, last night I sent my fleet away, carrying all the resources they could, to a local debris field. They arrived back home about 30 mins after I got online.

The beauty of this is that anyone probing you in the night will see you've not got many resources (assuming you can carry them all),and no fleet worth crashing, so you should be left alone.

Very harsh, bad luck mate. :(

On the upside for you, your nanite factory will be built 20 mins before mine, which should be done for 12:50 :p

lol

i didnt even get a moon or anything... mainly because i didnt even take out 1 of his battleships :/

sucks tho :(

i can make that lost stuff up in 3 hours with raids... just effort, and a pain in the bum.
 
I lost 10 large cargoes, 50k of metal and 25k of crystal to the player ranked 27. Seems a strange sort of raid, given he sent 25 battleships to an undefended colony and didnt bother harvesting the debris field :confused:

My main fleet got there today - some very good raiding targets about, with 100k plus per raid opportunities. Makes it even more dubious as to why I got hit, unless it was a welcome to the sector party....
 
Owwwww. :(

Some more LC's getting built when nanites are done?

I've been lucky that every time I've been scanned, there is not a lot of money there.
(Well, main planet only has about 50K Metal, 20K Crystal and 20K deut at the mo!)

Glad to hear the fleet is OK though, that's the main thing.
Pain in the hoop rebuilding all of the defences again though.
GL - It mught be an idea to deploy some of the ships/res to your colony for the time being?

@rich99million - If you are inactive for over 35 days, it automatically delete's the account.

@the_brainaic - RIP's (Deathstars) are usually used for defence/blowing up moons.
Due to it taking 24 hours to cross a galaxy... To raid someone you'd be giving them about a week's notice! :p
 
How far i have got in two days :-

Metal Mine (level 8)
Crystal Mine (level 6)
Deuterium Synthesizer. (level 2)
Solar Plant (level 7)

Still very confused, also have a robot factory, but sence i do not need this yet. It appears i have a massive 5 points lol.

Thanks for info guys :)

So should i just keep building these up?

There's a few good "newbie" guides in the games official forums that you should look at for advice. I did and after three days I've got a score of 39. :)
 
when sending out a colony ship is it a good idea to include a schwack of resources to help start up? will they be added to the planet's resources for you to start with?


brainaic it's not you - it's the server

ahahhh well it's not just me then :p thanks :)

The first major player to scan me is going to come down on me quickly. I currently have 844k metal, 384k crystal and 78k deut just sitting around, plus I'm going raiding again after lunch, in preparation for plasma research level 7 (which will get me plasma cannons), and the nanite factory being built tonight. If I can stay probe free all day, I'll be ready to kick ass big style next week :D
 
If anyone fancys sending me a care package, just so im only waiting on time, not resources for a few days - 2:132:12 :)

edit - Im in the allience now, Liking the spinning logo :)

NOOOOOOOO!

The res will just "dissapear" if you send it with the Colony ship. :(
So a few cargo's sent just after it's deployed. :)

And the_brainaic - Do you live in the UK?
If so, you should be 50 mins behind the server.
(Yep - Server's 10 mins slow for german time)


And someone messaged me for a care package last night... And even though my messages are supposed to last a week.. They don't. :rolleyes:
Could they msg me again? (Will have 1 fleet slot free in an hour or so)
 
On the other hand, if you want to double fleet construction speed you could always just have got a second colony up to the same sort of production levels, without halting construction at all :p

I don't think I'll be going for nanites for a while yet, as parallel production looks as though its going to be muc more effective (and result in a nicely dispersed fleet for a wider raiding pattern).
