I'm new to the forums (and, to SS generally). I was curious if anyone has tried this new game on Facebook - Vorp! It's more arcadey and not a SS clone by any means, but is fun and has some familiarity. Cool graphics and looks like some good stuff in the works (in 'open-alpha' currently). It's a top-down drifty space shooter with match-based progression. It's a little more forgiving for a newb like myself, though vets seem to dominate well enough. Thoughts?

Bonuses. A specific function introduced into Chaos Zone. I believe the original bot line about it advised that to learn about the Bonus system, was to learn how to own. There are clear problems with the Bonus system. Lame play loves bonuses They are too easy to use, and can too easily turn the tables mid-fight. The player who is killing the most is racking them up, further expanding the gap between newbie and vet. While a winning player should indeed garner success, the gap is a bit too broad. There are some current suggestions for changes to the Bonus system. I wanted to mention them here to see what thoughts were from the proles (says me with my 1:8 w/l ratio!). …

Is there a URL where I can see pub stats for each reset, past and present? The old address I had is dead like a drunken babbling ethylene.

http://steamcommunity.com/groups/continuumsubspace I urge you all to create a Steam account if you do not already have one, and join the group! To create an account, download and install Steam from http://cdn.steampowered.com/download/SteamInstall.msi. Once Steam is installed and you get to the login screen, you can proceed to register for a free Steam account (which works with SteamCommunity.com). PS. I know there is already a small SubSpace group out there, but I disagree with its group icon (only some players would understand where it comes from), and the group description sounds very negative toward the game.

Hey all, I don't know if this has been suggested yet. Let's try to get ss advertised on www.thinkgeek.com. Check it out, they're awesome and they have all sorts of video game advertising and a huge following. Just a suggestion.

Ok i've had enough of the Shark's guns. The rate of fire is TOO much of an advantage. If you're a good running player all you need to do is run, leave a stream and rep, or run never shoot until your opponent is on you and then fire a stream. However if you want to leave the rate of fire then turn max guns on sharks to level 2. Please discuss. Render

Please bring back energy depleted. IMO it makes things more interesting and I think it would punish runners constantly trying to green reps.

Why can't we lower the lvls of our weapons, i.e. switch to level one once we have level two? There would obviously be benefits to this, like red bombs are deadlier at close range. Oh, and not to mention trickery, like fooling someone that you only have level 1s when you're a neg and then switching to level 3s. Can it be done? VOICE CHAT NOW. thx hook-ups

Hallu, since you don't like to tell players about setting changes and refuse to answer questions in game I thought I would bring up the topic here so others could contribute...why is it that now when the population is low that all of the greens are concentrated in one small area? Where was the news.txt file to let players know of this change? Where is the forum post asking the players if they would want this type of change? Your unilateral changes to the game settings are less than desirable. hallucination> ethy, your assertion that the zone sysops need your permission to test settings is absurd on the face of it. We'll announce any perm changes. It's obvious that …

This is an open thread to discuss thoughts about the 1998 SVS settings. A couple of days isn't long enough to really see the consequences of having them in, but it's enough to get a feeling about them. When I first took over the zone, the first thing I did was go back to these SVS settings, and work from there. I am now tempted to do something similar and go back to the settings (including bot settings) I had when I left (in 2003-4) and go from there again (which were very close to SVS settings). People have mentioned the amount greens -- thereby rediscovering why Chaos-Bot was originally built -- to dynamically change freqsizes and green settings specifically t…

Hello there friends! The 17th RSHL Season is coming to an end. The only games left to be played are the FINALS! A best of 5 series between the top 2 teams in the league. Congratulations to both teams on making it to the RSHL finals. Breakaway, the longest tenured team in the league, takes on Interference. Interference has been around since season 9 or 10. They competed in the NRSHLT for a spot in the RSHL, but were defeated by what would become one of the most dominant franchises in RSHL history, Money Inc. This is shaping up to be one epic of a finals and I hope to see everyone come and support the RSHL. Interference (4-2-0) @ Breakaway (4-1-0) -> Mon Apr 18 2011 …

Chaos Zone is bringing back the VIE days with *real* CD SVS settings this weekend. The original, overpowered, cloaking shark, 30 bty start, and more! It's a journey in the time machine back to 1998 when negs were NEGS!!! Well actually, not quite, but much more neg-like. Lots of players anticipating this -- should be fun! Stop by and green up for old school Chaos action and experience what it was like to play Chaos in 1998! Settings in NOW!! Also: Pro League Season 29 continues, and Warzone at 5pm ET Sunday! --hallu Edit: Feedback and discussion about the settings is of course welcome on this thread also.

In the slight chance that anyone is keeping tabs or gives a hoot about the original creators, Rod moved from EVP of The Sims to CEO of Linden Lab (Second Life) and took Jeff alongside for the ride. Best wishes.

Looks like Priit is working on the biller, so scores, chats, bots are all down for now. You can play and lame about, but nothing counts toward the new reset. Hopefully he'll have it working soon, and the new reset will commence. --hallu

Well, tbh, not even a clue how they got in. The password for SSGN (ssgn.net domain and subdomains, and no that is not the actual username) is used NOWHERE else, and had numbers, chars, and special chars. Made the pass 10x harder now, and a lot longer. But brute force was on, so I dunno how they got in yet. Root reported no logins, server reported no brute force attempts, etc. But it seemed to be a bot moving through the ftp editing all index.* and login.*/auth.* type files. It'd add an iframe line, and knew the difference between html and php in how it added it and where it added it. The ip was 67.61.120.63 and located in Texarkana Arkansas. Soon as I changed the pass…

I made a post a lonnggg time ago asking about a video editing software. I have since formated my PC and lost the program. I can't think of the program that I was using but someone referred it to me. It was a great program. Anyways, if anyone knows of any video editing software, can you please let me know. Downloadable or free.

I am making a fansite for http://www.eatandys.com/. Nope, they never asked me to do it.

How do you get someone, who is used to cutting edge - or at least recent - gaming technology, to like Subspace. To get someone to go have a look, not to mention to play, come back, and repeat, is an immense achievement, very difficult. Fellow Aussie fenrix got four mates to join once, was seen out east near the safes showing them all the ropes (telling them stuff through something like Teamspeak, I think). Of these, Soothsayer II came back for one or two more visits, then he disappeared. Various folks here have been known to get their kids online to have a play. I know Blackers is one, but there seem to be a few here and there. Whether there are stayers amongst them…
