What is TVS
The Violet Sector is a FREE multi-player turn based game. Join a legion and battle against other players all around the world for domination of the galaxy! Strategise and team up with friendly pilots to dominate sectors and hyper to new areas to beat the enemy.
Why was it created
The Vision Studios were asked to come up with a concept for an online game for a client. We came up with a number of ideas, but Wingees idea would apparently 'not work' according to other members of the team. To prove them wrong, he decided to actually create the game. And yes, they are all playing the game non stop....
What is the difference between a frantic and a beta
Betas have turns that are 3 hours long. This allows time for planning and moving your side in one large group. Good beta strategy involves using the 'deadzone'; the period of time each tick when the hypergates are closed. In betas the deadzone spans the last 15 minutes and the first 5 minutes of every tick.
Frantics have turns that are just 15 minutes long. They are a lot more fluid and random; in these games individual players can have a much larger impact. The deadzone for frantics is the first and last minute of each tick.
Betas are for people who like to play a game without it taking up too much of their time. Frantic games are a lot more fun to play if you have time to spare and want action now!
Something doesn't appear right in the game, what should I do?
Use the Bugs forum. Please send as much info as possible about what you did to cause the problem, where and when did it happen, and what the error was if there was one.
