To be fair, the site is literally called SpaceBattles.SB is accurate for sci-fi settings when it comes to the ships and tech themselves
The moment infantry or named characters are involved it all goes to shit
Nah they suck at Halo and other recent sci fi too
Xelee is literally the only one mentioned they somewhat get right, and only the xelee themselves
Ah, I remember when SB argues that F-22 raptor (or any USA main fighter jet) can outfight TIE and X-wing. Good times that wasThis. @Maddie gives them too much credit on that front but SB genuinely sucks at even Hard/Soft Sci-Fi settings outside of a few natural aspects of the genre.
You can easily see how they conduct themselves around Star Wars in terms of their Sci-Fi abilities and how badly they tend to fuck that up and I'm not counting the Jedi, the Sith, the Stormtroopers or anything like that, just primarily their technology in all aspects.
What you said in second paragraph is fine Xhom butThis. @Maddie gives them too much credit on that front but SB genuinely sucks at even Hard/Soft Sci-Fi settings outside of a few natural aspects of the genre.

It would be humiliating if they get their Ships calc wrong. Also, what Flowering Knight said:To be fair, the site is literally called SpaceBattles.
I'd hope they get that stuff correct at least

Modern Military doesn’t count since SB for some reason goes retard when it is brought up.Ah, I remember when SB argues that F-22 raptor (or any USA main fighter jet) can outfight TIE and X-wing. Good times that was
Nah, they’re calc seemfine even for Humans, Silver Ghost, Qax and other species. They only get full retard with Xeelee when Xeelee vs Cosmic Character are brought up. Since at that point, it’s all about head cannon. People forget that in the entire series when haven’t ever seen the entire race of Xeelee get serious. This is mostly due to the fact that the story is written from Human’s POV.Xelee is literally the only one mentioned they somewhat get right, and only the xelee themselves
To be fair to SB
They don't actually have a working understanding of "scaling" so it's not something that they actively use baring the occasional user that uses their own understanding of it, so i wouldn't even include them here.
They understand scaling just fine. They just reject itTo be fair to SB

Ripped the words straight out of my mouth and put them into a blender.CBR as well.
I remember their Parasite Eve wank especially. They legit thought Eve could beat fucking Alex Mercer, and even tried to argue that a virus would have mitochondria. When by definition they don't. When the first game established that the real Alex Mercer is dead, and the one you're playing as is just a virus who thought he was Alex Mercer.Just came across this thread and sorry for bumping this thread since it's about to be the 10th anniversary of CBR's board wipe anyway:
Ripped the words straight out of my mouth and put them into a blender.
CBR without a fucking question is the only objectively correct answer here.
Even well before the board wipe in 2014, that site has always been about as much of a joke as it gets nevermind being the most inaccurate when it comes to actual powerscaling or debating.
The main reason? Look no further than Nik, Cody, Siriel, Duskman, Farealmer, Overmaster, Master of Read, Pendy, and whoever else I'm missing/forgetting in that sorry excuse for a debating section.
