I'm here because my 120K force just got wiped by a force of around 75K which is now 50K standing on my unprotected borders

Stellaris is an Excell spreadsheet disguised as a videogame you have to pay significantly to get the full experience of.

[maxchambers]

ive played like 400-500 hours and never paid attention to ship designs cus its baisically the same as trying to understand a redstone computer from minecraft, so this is super poggers

[joshbishop]

I personally really wish you could just use what you wanted and not get punished if it doesn’t fit well against your enemy understand what they were going for but I’m just a relaxed gamer and having to micromanage the weapons and modules on my ships on top of everything else in the game is just a nightmare for me haha

[LilPenith]

Oh my god yes! Finally a YouTube I don’t have to speed up the video! Thank you for talking somewhat quick !

[sincereflowers]

Great now my offline campaigns can stop getting obliterated by 2350... i mean its seriously bullshit when the first group of aliens you encounter already have fleets with 30k+ power. Like who has the alloys for that...

[golisopod]

I really dont wanna bother learning how to do this but the auto designs using artifacts are forcing me to

[cayde]

I love RTS games, but I’m a noob… i lost even on cadet, with pre-made enemies with nothing but bad traits, no advanced starts for ai, no crisis, no Fallen empires and max prim civs…

I even had a Necrophage origin, connected to the shroud via mind over matter route, became the crisis, had overwhelming power in comparison to everyone in the galaxy, owned half the systems, raised 5 primitive species to be my underlings and the buffer between my empire and the enemies, had a fleet that’d make any sci-fi writer blush… but I still lost 😢

So I’m here today to learn! Although I doubt anything can save me 😂

I mean this is a nice explanation, but if you're not specifically describing a build I don't know why you'd have a thumbnail with allcaps "BEST BUILD" in it. I came to the video kind of wanting to get some examples of best all around builds for different stages of the game, but this was just an explanation of fundamental concepts :\

[kamikazeeee]

While most of this is true and dedicated counter designs are the way to go when possible there are a few desings that will do great against anything. For cruisers going full med weapons on tbe first 2 sections ans smalls on the aft with disruptors or missiles for weapons, mainly armour tripple afterburners and for combat computers picket if you run disruptors or artillery for missiles amd for corvettes it's pure disruptors. The other ships aren't really worth using most of the time. For fleet compositions full cruisers is probably the best try not to mux disruptors and missiles tho.

This is a good short and sweet introduction to building fleets in Stellaris.

[wonderlight]

this game and EVE Online will detroys your brain cells for sure .

If you're gonna speak that quickly while also having an accent you should put subtitles, great vid!
Lowering the videos speed helped me absorb it lmao

[Szon]

So, to put it simply, spaceships win battles but intelligence service wins the war.

[Gbyrd]

Is using a strike craft cruiser still meta and just destroy ai?

[jeremibrewer]

I attacked my neighbor with a 50k fleet. Got wiped out by a 30k fleet . I had to go back and check my damage output, their damage output, and defense systems and build new ships with a different load out. I got attacked by another neighbor who steamed rolled that fleet. Finally, after losing a few systems got them to go a way and then build up and attacked the first neighbor, not paying attention to the politics and found out they were part of an alliance, and then I got attacked by everyone. Thats where I am at right now

[ashleyfisher]

Great information. I had to slow the video down to .75x speed because you talk so fast, but after watching this again I understand a lot more now. Thanks.

[rogue_one]

I remember when missiles could be put on small slots

[spritemon]

The one thing im bad at is fleet composition
