It seems rather similar to others I've played. Not without its charms

Shouldn't this be in General talk anyway?

Never heard of it, but that's most likely the problem

Well, if it works, it's fine
Well if you don't know what fleetsave is I very much doubt you played Ogame too much

Dunno, it was some time till I played it the last time and back then it was pretty much your average lame Browsergame. Maybe I'll give it another try sometime.

I heard from many people how addictive this game is, and that's exactly the reason why I didn't give it a try!

and also use attacks on lower ranking player as sort of profitable fleetsave, the point is that if you invest heavily in your defences you'll loose sooner or later, but if you fleetsave properly no one can harm you...
Exactly what I was saying. To "fleetsave" like you say properly, you need to basically live in the game.

And beside, any game which give turrets a lower hit or damage ration than mobile guns is quite nuts in my oppinion.

Ummm let's say I got to sleep in 0:00, I came back from school around 2PM, I fleetsaved for 14h, now I can fleetsave until let's say 11PM when I am sure I'll be home, and then again fleetsave untile the next day etc. you get the point...

So 2 fleetsaves/day take up 2 minutes and if you want to build something it'll take you 10 minutes...

That's the beauty last week I didn't play it much, (5 minutes a day) and only lost couple of places, now I feel like playing it (1-2hours) and I gain around 20 places a day (I'm 1400th out of some 10000), so no you don't need to live the game, you got that very wrong...

You won't go far in the game and are sure to lose if you only fleet save like that. To do anything good, you need to attack every single chance you have to.

And I do attack when I have the time, this was the case when I didn't have the time, also if you've cleared your neighbourhood of stronger players you're pretty safe...

And if your alliance is strong then people will be less prone to attacking you...

EoF you can't loose if you invest in your economy even if someone (amazingly by heavy sensor phalanxing and excellent timing) crushes your fleet you're on to a fast rebuild, for how long did you play the game?

Because by fleetsaving and resource saving there's no way anyone will attack because it won't make sense for them, so the only real danger is if your enemy has a moon and a sensor phalanx on it and is real keen on destroying you...

It been a while, I was in one of the top 10 alliance in the french version of Universe 18. Let me recall how they were called... Hum... Oh yeah, it was EG (Empire Galactique). I was even the admin of our board, about the same way I am now the admin of the Urban Dead group of this own site.
