Guns of Icarus: Online

So, if you haven't read the posts and watched the videos yet, go do so now:

For the purposes of knowing exactly how many package deal copies we'll need to buy, please post here with the clear statement that you're in. (Assuming, of course, that you are in.)

And in the future we'll keep using this thread to plan our various conquests and raids... in the SKY!

[wolfy]

I am in.

[JLT*]

I see you've already purchased one set?

I want in too, although I'm not really sure yet when I could play ^_^

[SageGenesis]

Yeah, just now, since I'm sure we'll have at least four players anyway. It's 5 bucks a person, that's like a pack of (nice) cookies and a bottle of soda. Even if I were to never play it, it'd still be cheap.

[(me) Melchior]

cool, ill bring 5 allong tomorrow, hook me up!

[JLT*]

aw shucks, thanks ^_^

[SageGenesis]

Alrighty! Jelte, Wolf, and Mel have all been hooked up with GoIO.

I also noticed that Mark had a "wants GoIO" tag and maybe Marcia will also want in? That's two more scurvy crewmates, which totals up to $20... or someone can do $21 for the package deal. Would be better if more people joined, is what I'm saying, that way we get the best deal.

Download loopt, zometeen installeren. En dan ben ik over een kwartiertje in staat om te spelen

It's a lot of fun

[MaszaH]

nee ik ben niet in denk ik. filmpje is hilarisch en lijkt me ook leuk om jullie te zien spelen (vanaf de zijlijn heel hard lachend)

[SageGenesis]

Aww...

Anyway, gentlemen of the sky! We may have to discuss some tactics. Flailing and shrieking is fun, sure, but it would also be nice if we had a clue as to what we're doing.

Assuming we always stick together, we should decide on which ship we use, with what guns, and who will take on which roles and with what equipment. (We can also play individually of course with but then you're in a random team and all bets are off anyway.) Wolf posted some useful guides.

Does anybody have any preference yet for a specific type of ship? Wolf seems to like being the pilot, so he might have the strongest preferences, and based on that we can learn what are decent idea for engineer/gunner ratios, etc.

Just food for thought.

Galleon! , it has the most HP and has a port broadside of 2 Heavy (medium) and 1 medium (light),

we will need a gunner (jelte) and an engineer on the lower gun deck to operate our massive firepower and 1 engineer on top deck to keep us afloat and use the 2 light guns (port and aft)

as for what gun i think gatling or light flak for light and at least 1 of those cool lion rocket things for the broadsides, givinf us good long and medium range firepower

[JLT*]

For a main forward gun, I really liked the mortar better than the manticore blast thing, although it might not be the better choice. It takes a little more aiming effort (=more fun) and reloads faster (=more fun)

[JLT*]

Also, we need to plan a 'session'

[(me) Melchior]

Main forward? the galleon does not do such silly things, maar voor 1 van de 2 heavy braodsides is een mortar en 1 manticore prima, kan de engineer af en toe er snel insprining , alles er uitknallen en later realoaden terwijl hij zelf het schip gaat fixen

This sounds interesting. I will be lurking here regularly

As it sounds really fun, I may want to invest and join as a back-up. The only thing holding me back is that 10 dollars is a bit steep for a game that I will likely play only once or twice.

We hadden zaterdag overdag bedacht? met mogelijke doorloop in avond?

Indeed, but if there are another 2 like us it's only 5...

Ja, maar ik heb wel het een en ander te doen dus ik weet niet of ik hele middag + avond kan doen.

I can do five, but would not be able to provide any additional candidate players before May 22

Ik kan zaterdag overdag trouwens niet. Verjaardag van mijn vader, iets met een workshop worst maken...

[SageGenesis]

Na vanmiddag nog wat meer gespeeld te hebben kan ik sterk de Spire aanbevelen. Een groot main gun met meerdere sub-wapens die allemaal redelijk de front arc bestrijken. En de spire draait erg snel rond dus ze kunnen je moelijk outflanken. Bovendien zitten de ballon en hull dicht bij elkaar in termen van tijd (van ballon kan je gewoon naar beneden springen en dan ben je d'r) dus het schip is goed te hanteren met 1 engineer en 2 gunners.
