I was really wondering this as I checked the MV map today. I mean ICC have 7 planets. I know alot of the ICC players moved on to other games because of imbalances here in DS including myself. Those ICC players that are still here are probably losing their minds from always being the target of the enemy. What I'm saying is that maybe for once the Kluth should back off the ICC a little and give them a break. IMHO targeting the ICC and their planets whilst they have such a small player base is to me "the easy way out". My plee to the Kluth is this- back off the ICC a little bit and maybe fight the UGTO for a while. This game has to be fun for everyone and from the looks of right now the ICC are the only ones not having fun. And then you all wonder why the ICC are losing so many players. So, in conclusion if you all want to keep the game fun and if DS wants to keep players then maybe you all should back off the ICC a bit. And now for all those people that want to hate on this topic...... FLAME ON!!!!!

Yeah, we need more fleets to move FROM K'Luth. I'm sticking with Evil, but I would like for us and some others to move to ICC. Personally, I like UGTO more, but I favor balance overall.
Edit: I said we needed more to move TO K'Luth.

The only imbalance is in their heads.......when there are more Kluth we won and when there are more ICC, they won......if they played smart.
This imbalance bs is just a attempt to get what they can't get on the battlefield.
And i've played all three.......and there needs to be more than 3 factions

Well here is my two cents worth..
I am an ICC player and have also played as UGTO... but all faction BS aside... I agree ina certain way to this... It is not fun when you see 25 vs. 5 (Kluth vs. ICC) over and over again.... I would like to see a player amount balance amongst the factions... If Kluth so happens to win then so be it... ICC or UGTO have to try harder the next time... no sweat by me... but to have two large factions and one noticably smaller one is no fun... AND if it was the Kluth that were the smallest Faction I would be saying the same thing even if I am a ICC Player...

For me....Im unsubbed and trying like hell to find a way to resub my account and try and get into the MV, but right now its not working all to well. So when i get resubbed your gonna be seeing my Assault Dread back in the mv once again.
But like i said, its all gonna take me a bit of time to work out. Plus i gotta balance out my Senior Highschool work with my Navy work and then this....plus the things around the house considering its so close to Christmas. So ill see what i can do, and open to any suggestions.

when im on there are only 2 - 5 luth on most of the time...
i know there are ICC/UGTO on because thouse planets dont scrape them selves. you know once we have a foot hold there is no point in scraping. we have all the troops we need to take the system.
what realy gets me is for ICC all you need is one guy with pulse shields to stop the bombs.
the uber imbalence is mostly solved by the simple fact you can mount most anything you want on your ships.
the forums were not like this when i joined not to long ago. i am realy tired of it and have unsubed. i may contiune to play all depends...
im realy sure that seeing this sort talk cannt be good for the game

@all the "not subbing till patch" and "X is too uber or Y isnt uber enough" people types
1.483 is in beta, and there is at least one feedback thread for it. be a good chance to do something constructive and quite possibly have a say in the upcomming changes. if nothing else you can familiarize yourselves with the changes and have a smaller learning curve when the patch goes live.
im not sayin', im just sayin'. know what im sayin'?

O.o?™
Ummm... ICC has 46 planets.... they keep regaining ground....
this isn't a pity game. having pity on a faction is sick. it's a game.
if ICC gets wiped for any reason, they'll be just fine when the map resets.
you said there are few ICC players right? well they appear to be doing ok.
so stop worrying about inbalance in the current MV, and go play beta so that you can post imbalances you see there so it'll be fixed for a new MV sooner

Hard to complain about a lack of ICC players when Ugto and ICC are always helping each other fighting the K'luth. I play quite a bit and the odds are rarely in K'luth favor when you count the number of players from ICC and Ugto. As Far as the K'luth only fighting the ICC, we're using a well known tactic, Divide and Conquer. If they'd fight each other, we probably wouldn't pick on just one faction at a time. If Ugto and ICC continue helping each other, they might as well be combined into one faction, or another alien faction could be created for K'luth to ally with. The overall point is, 3 factions were created to maintain balance of the game, and to fight each other.
