This just does not make sense. The target had no sensors mounted and by definition the cloaking devices are ineffective. If this is the case, then I want to be under quantum overload all the time. It should be a huge disadvantage. |

It is an incredible disadvantage, there is always a chance that you will fail no matter how one sided the hack is. The RNG goddess screwed you on this one, it happens. |

There is always a chance for critical failure. I'm the only person in the game to get mass-hacked by every person from the top of every leaderboard at the same time. It could have been awesome.... though it wasn't. |

Yeah, getting screwed by the RNG is my specialty. However, Quantum Overload should pretty much make that a non possibility. That's my point. |

There's a cap or "anti-cap" on either side. considering how small the chance is in the first place, it is sort of ridiculous for the cap to be nearly equivalent. edit: nobody knows the numbers, and I'm the only person with a sample. I didn't document it. You can't see plain failed hacks against you. I actually got a sample on the offensive side and realized how worthless hacking, and mass-hacking were. I used to adopted the ideals of "plasticity" in terms of hacking and being hacked by only defending my better planets; it actually worked. The side effects were quite undesirable. Unfortunately, one side isn't that much better than the other. Use your planet fluxes wisely. |
