I'm looking to upgrade the tileset ... but I have had no luck finding anybody with good GFX knowledge to do something that would be in the line of zones like EG and Red Star ... I think a modern tileset is key in gaining interest in the zone. Any suggestions?

Since the losers might really not like being swindled out of their juicy JP and might be drawn away from the zone by it, I was thinking that perhaps giving them 20% of the JP in credits might be good? Also, about the periodic credit giving. Should we keep it (at a much reduced level, of course. Say 1 million every 15 minutes)?

Credit system

Okey, the credit bot is up for a test run. Doesn't really do anything yet Right now, it gives the JP and flag rewards to you in credits and you can buy scorereset (which also resets credits). Graphical credit counter will come within a week. Time to cook up some items for it. First, maybe a general price guide is needed? Expensive: 100m+ Normal: 30m-100m Cheap: <30m Here are my item ideas, slightly modified from vol 1 of this thread: Brick Cost: 80m Restrictions: once per three minutes per team (=bricks will have to be bought in advance to use several times) 10-second engine shutdown to closest enemy player Cost: 50m Restrictions: once per minute per…

Less Reps?
by XDOOM- 4 replies
- 1.8k views
Hey guys ... I've noticed that even with a small amount of people ... there is a ton of reps available thru greening ... on top of the ships that come with 2-3 reps. Do you think we should descrease the amount of reps available to green ... and eliminate any ships with more then 3 reps (and possible remove some ships with 2 reps down to 1 rep?) -xdoom

I have made an image, so when you enter the zone it will show up for 3 seconds. Here is an image of it:

Any need for some graphical notification when the JP increases? If yes, then what kind of notification would you like? I remind you that we already have a textual and audible notification in the form of the JP message I don't really see a need for something like this, but let me know what you think.

Right now players have the option to scorereset themselves .. should we get rid of this option .. Or should we allow for so many scoresets/month ... and have the scoreresets available thru bot.

Stats after flag victory, you want? tm_master said he would like it. I think it's just spam. I'd rather not have much useless stuff. Let me know what you think.

Credit System 1 2
by XDOOM- 38 replies
- 5.7k views
Hey, I started a new topic about the credit system, this is an idea kick me put in a different topic. I have an idea for a bot. Have another 24/7 bot, but with a credit feature for buying stuff, ya know. Have like, per kill, 10 creds and per death, 2 creds, and 40 creds per goal or something in that nature. It will possibly encourage other players to play the zone more often, wanting to buy items (such as super, points, w/e) or for simply bragging rights. For events, make them worth credits rather than points, making buyables more flexable. Some people don't really care about the points, so instead, they could buy super, or shields (if possible), rockets, OR buy the p…

So, I started thinking... When the game is on, the JP message pops up every 5 minutes or so, so everyone is always aware of how big the jackpot is. A JP counter would always display it. The big questions are: do you want to know the exact jackpot every moment? Or are periodic rises better? Is the screen real estate for the counter worth it? Is there anything you gain from having the sum in front of you? Do you like to see how fast it rises? (I have no specific opinion, I just want to know your thoughts)

I know a lot of you have seen the screen filled with KOTH messages when everyone is spectating and away. Yeah, annoying. Still, when the game is active, it works more or less well, although... it gives very little points (20-40k or so to the winners every few minutes or so). Well, that might seem like an OK sum but there simply aren't that many winners. So the points are rarely given out at all. So... should KOTH be scrapped since it's useless? Or should the reward be increased? (I don't care... well I care, since I see the afk KOTH spam a lot, but in general, I want to know what you think)

Hey I have activated the subarenas ?go devaduel ?go cloakwars ?go elim ?go paintball I forget if I added any more. Anywho. I'd like to have a bot for cloakwars, elim and paintball. (and any other event that we make up) I want this bot to be spawnable by the main deva bot so that its only available when we need it. (I only ever want the main deva bot on 24/7) I would like the main deva bot to check for antiwarp in the center ... and I really dont know what else it needs to do .... anybody got anything?

Idea: if jackpot is won during the first few minutes of each hour, the JP is tripled.

A new idea I just thought about: What if we added "shortcuts" in the map, which allowed you from an area near center, spawn to the entrances of bases on the map. This would make it faster to get to bases if all of your players were killed, and keep pressure on the flag carriers. Just a thought

Hey guys Is it possible to make LVZ that will prevent flags from going outside of the map? xdoom
Last reply by Default+, -
Hey guys, When you have spare time, work on the F1 menu. Customize it a little bit. Have thing's such as rules, description of each ship, Devastation in words, Staff, Etc. I actually find it rather helpful to read this (I occasionally play new zones; before I begin playing, I always read the F1 menu). Just a small idea.

People seemed to find it cool when in my zone a "Please tell your friends and squadmates about this zone" lvz message popped up now and then. Do it in deva as well? (Definitely lvz, normal periodic messages are annoying)
