too many flak/laser cannons

i wanna know if everyone wants to make a limit on how many flak/laser cannons can be on a planet. Because i land on planets and people have ridiculous ammonts of cannons firing all at once. another fact is that more of those cannons = more lag so tell me if there should be a limit on the flak/laser cannons.. theres just too many!!!

There are already limits to the amount of lasers you can have on a planet.

Omg you realize how riddicuously easy it is for people to invade? People don't even have to put any effort into it... i think it should be more difficult if anything...

Just so you know the max is 120 pieces of hardware. Personally I think Relentless is right though the colonies do not need to be made any easier to take. In the situtation you are describing u need to use nukes to secure a landing zone then work from there.

How about they reduce the ammount of turrets you can have or you have more types of hardware to work with in the colony.
Read the post about new weapons for colonies form and add your suggestions there on new type of weapons to work with.

Seriously the limit should if anything be higher.

Yes the limit must be higher

right now it takes 200-300 nukes to take a colony which is very low, colony invasion is almost as easy as escort missions

go in colony press f6 get out

Nukes, if you have a volc to produce them are easy to come by and two nukes take out a laser....so enough trips and you can take down anything

Nukes like all hardware take 400 energy to use.
