At the moment motherships have no real purpose. They add power to the battlefield true but that power is so small compared to the sizes of stats these days that its useless.
[19:06:34] <~adminHere> "triple power of MS shields and weapons. this will not affect MS on MS as they're all increased, but would increase the value of MS input to ground if/when it breaks through the enemy MS"
What admin proposed but I'm not sure even if that's enough maybe 5x?

Re: Boost MS power
Further to that... if fleet get's a multiplier, planet defense would need a re-evaluation... Or you could leave fleet strength out, but I'm sure some would be unhappy with that as well.

defence and attack planets would need revamping aswell to catch up with the current stats people are walking around with

Fleets should be left out imo. And 5x might be a bit much but at least it sparked some conversation.

Re: Boost MS power
...the idea is that a MS has absolutely no purpose right now, you say you could mass someone with just your MS well maybe make it so that at most it matches your strike that way it resolves both issues. No fleets would stay the same, there has not been a problem with them since planetary defense has not increased into the 100tril mark making fleets obsolete nor do I think it ever will
I think 300% increase would be good, it adds enough of a boost to make MS valid again but not enough to make them overpowered I mean the best MS would have what a ~7.5tril strike after update? Not exactly a huge strike but just enough to make a difference

Ms is currently set that way, it will match your attack capacity in battle... I didn't mean to say can only mass with my MS my bad... just the bonus would be so good, I would'nt be getting many loses in comparison

Re: Boost MS power
Yes MS does need to be upped to make battles more interesting and to make it a useful stat.
No MS should not be upped because the powerful cash spenders and super farmers will just get an even bigger advantage over average joe players.
Upping MS will not help the game. Go back to how the game was before covert was upped years ago. Back then big players had a massive advantage but smaller players could still do something even if the cost was big. Oh nostalgia.

Re: Boost MS power
I think even 3x was too much , maybe 2x , big ms's will be holding 6t strike if 2x'd Massing a 15t def which is not huge but it does cost a bit to mass , with a 6t boost in strike massing would be back to old days less expensive more fun hehe , but 3x then rank 1 ms is 9t strike LoL

Defence has no purpose now, give everyone 37 covert that have played for over a year and then you should consider changing the MS.

Re: Boost MS power
Why is everyone in this game so in love with bandaides and refuse to actually address the root issues with the game?
How many more times will things have to be adjusted and have a bandaide put on it? This game is a tangled mess of more bandaides then wound.
So how long till the next call for a multiplier? A year? 2 years?
I agree with Sol too BTW.
