A little off topic, I played the game many many years ago not at any competitive level, just having a blast building defences. But we all knew the vanilla game would lag hard late game. Then literally last week stumbled on FAF and wow its amazing, even tried BAR but it has nothing on FAF. Now getting to my point, noob player doing some multiplayer, everyone was super nice, helpful and we won. I know there is a skill gap but educating us noobs really does help to bridge a large gap and make the game more enjoyable for all. Make the game welcoming for newbies, grown the player base and keep this community thriving in a positive attitude manner that I've come to see.

@thewheelienoob a noob shouldn't be giving out pro tips smh

@sheikah said in "opponent AI on": Is that related to the functionality that I think FAF added for having an AI take over an opponent when they disconnect? No, that was managed via Lua. But I'm not sure if that is functional.

That appears to be a decent good-first-issue for this topic: https://forum.faforever.com/topic/7808/looking-for-new-client-maintainer/1

Never used the area reclaim feature but it seemed like a cool idea, unfortunate that its not possible to implement in the way the devs wanted

Nice to hear from you! Maybe we can go over some changes together so I can learn how you would go about doing them? You can find me on discord, then we can schedule a time that fits for us.

@mostlostnoob well that definitely helps for #aeolus at least, I guess I can ask people that we speak there.

F Many old players leaving recently... See you, Endranii.

@futureman If you are banned, you will not be able to login to the FAF launcher. It'll instead show you a distinct message which includes the reason for your ban, for which replay that ban was applied, and for how long the ban will last. Seems like you have unrelated chat issues, check in the discord for someone that can help you fix.

Every navy obliterates hover unless the map is to tiny for t2 or t3 navy. Also aeon navy is by far the most powerful in the game because of tempest and omens.Also a crusher has a huge radar bubble and a frigate also has decent radar and omni exists and it is very good.

@teach_ I would suggest that you start by clearing your browser cache & trying again. If that doesn't work, then try temporarily changing the Default Browser in Windows Settings again, clearing the cache of that browser & trying again. Also, don't forget to click the checkbox next to Remember Me before you click the Login with Browser button so you won't have to login every time you open the client. @magge GG WP

@oblivion666 As I said, if you join the LOUD Discord & state what's going on along with the loud.log file (LOUD Updater > Help > View Game Log Folder > loud.log), then we can help you diagnose what's going wrong & hopefully help you fix it.

Server != server. The server admins (mostly @p4block and I) work on server infrastructure. The Kubernetes change is unrelated from DDoS and was planned long before that. The lobby server development has mostly stalled after TMM development. Major topics and pull requests have never been finished (for example changes required for Galactic War) and the maintainer has stated his lack of time and long term interest. We had that situation before. Barely anybody wants to take the responsibility of the lobby server code. I can't blame anyone, this community is super toxic if you break something.

Replays should be working again!

mods there appear to be people impersonating someone

There seem to be issues with replays after the recent infrastructure changes. The issue has been forwarded and will be worked on.
