1. I have given up on trying to get pres, as when i try to do that i get bored. So im just gonna play. But i want to unlock the Assault Cruiser due to its insane amount of torps and lasers. Sooo i need 24 more planet cap points to have all the required medals. What would be the quickest, easiest way to cap planets? (my i idea would be too kluth tranny cloak)
2. How do you get more infantry? I go to a planet and click load, they dissapeear from the planet, but never appear in my cargo.
3. Review of the Assault Cruiser if you have used it?

1: Go to scenario, get a transport or a billion, and run around capturing planets like a bandit. Get fresh transports when you run out of infantry.
2: You're doing it right; you need to wait for the infantry to fly over to your ship in a transport pod.
3: It has lots of torpedoes and beams on its front. It's quite killy, but having to face your opponent head-on all the time can make things difficult.

1) At the beginning of each Scenario server, there is usually a rich amount of uncapped planets. Go to the ones that aren't already being tranny rushed by others and cap. :]
2) Once you click load, the infantry on the planet enter transport pods to transfer the infantry to your ship. Wait around 20-45 (45 being a bit extreme) seconds and the transport pods should reach your ship, thus giving you your desired infantry. The only cause against such would be a, I believe to be, rare desync if even possible, or the transport pods are being destroyed, which is usually noticable by the explosions unless it's behind the planet or some other means of leaving view.

Visit Procyon with zealous amounts of bombardment equipment, righteous hatred and a boat full of infantry.
Bomb enemy inf off, cap planet, ???, repeat process until victory (and a badge) is yours.
Godspeed, cadet.

Are you mocking the game? If not then i am.
There has never ever been more easy to get prestige in this game.
Look at the top 10 rankings.
You will see ppl that has played the game less then 60 days and still get over 500k prestige.
I wounder what this game have become in the last years..it had so much potential....

No im not mocking the game. I enjoy it. But grinding for pres is not fun too me. Ive been stuck at 10.5k for 5 days now, as the pres i gain in the 2 hours I play a day is instantly evaporated when my missle dred gets blown up.
So im just going to play the game and not worry about prestige.
BTW, the players you are talking about with 500k prestige must play this quite alot.

Don't fly a missile dread then -.-
I earnt over 1k pres in the last couple of hours just going on scenario and capping/building. Missile dreads are probably the first dread most people will fly, but they are very specialised dreads and don't do well in close combat at all. Stick with a Battle Cruiser or even a Combat Dessy if you want to fight, if you want pres then hit the scenarios or get in a group on MV and stick with the main fleet.

Ok first of all, why did this thread get off topic? It didn't need too.
But 1k an hour = 10 hours of me grinding and being bored. I figure that if i just play and do whatever, eventually ill get that 10k while becoming a better player for it. Im not whining about pres gain, its fine, im just stating i don't like specifically going for it.
Ive got my answers, thanks to those who contributed. This thread can be locked if it needs to be

its a anti-dread and station only ship... coz it got only front mouted weapons so if a cruiser or even a destroyer or frig is on your tail on a 1 v 1 fight u better not engage ...... but any one close and on your nose is half dead ...

I easily get 2k pres in a 2-3 hour scenario game. The pres I get consists of building and combat. Around 600 is building pres, the rest is combat.
