random or private

will we see more fellow players go random this round ?

will a random gal again (dominate) win ?

whos going random here ?

will there be forces trying to build random fortress gals ?

and what does your mum think about it?

im going random, since my pro priv gal quit playing last round, cause we were only ranked 6 or something...

Edit: and yes my mum would kill me if she knew i´d play this game still

Re: random or private

- I think there will be more random gals
- I think a random gal will end top gal
- I don't think we will see many fortress gals, but quite a few fenced gals

Re: random or private

Yes, I expect that people who gave up on private galaxies last round will go for random galaxies this round.

No, random galaxies will not dominate, however, I agree with Isil that a random galaxy will probably win the round.

I am going random, though mostly because I play a scanner. If I was playing with fleet, I would definitely be in a private galaxy. I think most people in Ascendancy and Apprime feel the same way.

I don't know if anyone will build a fortress in a random galaxy. Last round indicates that only CT tried to, but only one of their galaxies could pull it off. I think this is an indication of how it'll turn out this round if they (or others) try again.

My mother doesn't care.

Re: random or private

Everyone should go private then exile, makes fewer random gals and then they become stronger. if there is too many random gals then private is stronger.

Re: random or private

Yeah, I would urge everyone who is going random to find 7 like-minded individuals, make a gal, and then disband it.

You can just create your own buddypack - or with a few others and exile at tick 24 if you dont like who you landed with in a priv gal.

I don't know if you're joking or not, but I think the idea is to create a private galaxy and disband it to make the random galaxies bigger (Which wouldn't happen if you went with buddypacks from the start). Right?

Re: random or private

If your intent is to go random the best strategy is to join a buddy pack, or if you don't have any friends who will join with you to create your own one man buddy pack, which will get bunched with other small buddy packs. Then after protection is over exile into the public universe. The idea is to limit the number of public galaxies and thereby make them big. If there are too many public galaxies private galaxies will be a better option because of the higher chance of being with hyper active players. Publics only win when they have shear numbers on their side. If there are too many public galaxies then none of them will grow very big and the private 8 man galaxies will simply make all the public gals roid farms.

I will remind those that think public galaxies are the better option that a private galaxy nearly won last round in spite of being small. Also if you want to be a t50 planet private galaxies are also the better option as by far private galaxies dominated the planet rankings last round.

Re: random or private

Remember to make private gals and then disband them after 1-2 days guys! If everyone does it it will pay off massively!

Re: random or private

If by "massively" you mean that lower tier alliances can no longer gal raid, yeah.

Re: random or private

Great idea, if your goal is to put new players in tiny galaxies, ready to be farmed.

Re: random or private

should at least put some kind of minimum on the amount of random galaxies. arbitrarily speaking, say 1/3rd of the privates or so. with more people playing and going random it'd be easier though, cause if you did this then the random galaxies could end up smaller to start with. unless you had them empty and filled them up as you went along?

Re: random or private

Just an FYI, I have been informed that single man buddy packs will NOT end up in the private uni but in the public. So everyone find at least one buddy!

Thanks for that information! It is important that people make priv gals and then disband if we want to survive in the random gals!
