What I've noticed is that basing gets large and continuous when Gar isn't around, like the past 2 hours. I think you know what action needs to be taken, mods.

It's absolutely hilarious how now we reward losers with money too-- and they still ragequit when they get killed out of the base.

Cute how people thought that was intentional. There was a mistake when upgrading a certain module which made all instances of bounty in rewards formulas evaluate to 0. It's been fixed and will be online soon. Ya. Obv.

^Knows nothing.

I'm intrigued by the concept of creating a mailing list when there is a reset.

let me reiterate that the only thing we need is item names. item parameters and item ideas are not being considered

No, but nice try. I was arguing that higher energy upgrades isn't always the best option. It was funny too since you were claiming my arguments were all based in theory when your best argument was that the difference between most ships +2 and +5 recharge was a couple-hundred or so.

they have since they were brought back. pay attention moar?

no doubleposting wouldn't it be the omega 13 and move you back 13 seconds duh? keep in mind the limit on item name length and the only thing I would use out of these is Delta Drive but that's not really creative you know given how we've already used three greek letters for drives? lol

No... almost every detail of powerballs is the way it is now due to undesirable things that happened as a result of what it was before. Rewards were already increased yesterday. Keep in mind the jackpot is no longer split, so people who want to encourage a real flag game can rack up the jackpot. What I did yesterday was a mini-event where I added a second powerball and doubled the jackpot after several goals were scored.

turretwar only takes place in ?go events

Woah woah, calm down! You know I won't listen to anyone regardless of what Stibby says. Player ships having somewhat of a static recognizable identity is a primary goal. Switching your guns or whatever every spawn is not desirable to that end. In the future this mechanic may operate somewhat different with warehouse/dequiping, but by then we'd have more items too. Cue Gar.

Ya.. well I'm going to fix powerball rewards because that's simple, it was designed when privates were still around and meant for privates to play. Now basically it's impossible to win any money because it thinks your team is too big. lol. for various reasons it's unlikely we'll regress to an earlier powerball game. and as I've said countless times we're going to make a quality league so it will be a while before that happens

glad you figured it out

Yes: chaos would ensue. No.

Well, that certainly was a calm and collected post that didn't make up anything that I said at all.

you realize salvo has always been intended to be a low fire delay bomb, for bombing, right?

?

Not really, he knows I don't like him either. Doesn't mean he can't agree with me, and doesn't mean he has to type everything I said again if he wants to voice his opinion. You hatin' on nolan123 for no good raisin too? lolz

I'm pretty sure he was just referring to my post to ol' Stibbs.

Funny words coming from you.

Correct, but remember that other zones don't have to worry about people having more or less resources at their disposal. One person here may have much better ships than the next, which complicates things immensely. 20v20 isn't always as in fact quite often isn't fair. So not only are we going to write it from scratch, we have to do it differently than a standard module. Whether we knew how to build such a thing was never in question. What we're not exactly sure about is how to account for people of varying exp levels/items in a way that makes sense, as well as make something that is easily extensible and flexible (as is how we do most things.)

So you got angry at me/don't respect me because I don't take suggestions*, and think I still deserve the respect**. Gotcha. Well, I already knew you were being kind of irrational anyway. Most people who get mad at me aren't so persistent or at least not so spiteful. But here, let me encourage you since this is what you want to do. You still have a long way to go to make it to the top trolls list. *90% of suggestions in this zone are not thought out (let alone not a scheme to make the game easier for the person suggesting it, let alone in line with what Brain is trying to do with the zone) Of the remaining 10%, 5% are impractical, infeasible, or impossible. The rest get done at an exceedingly slow rate because that's how much time people have anyway.. **The funny thing is I prefer to be a low-profile guy but at the same time I don't ignore really ignorant things said. It's no wonder that people always see me calling people out and thus associate me as a "not-nice" guy. Lol. At one time I thought I took SS more seriously than most people but I've since learned that I don't since I don't actually get mad IRL over what happens in the game. People blame me for things I am not responsible for, people blame me for not operating on a full time basis, etc. It's kind of sad. Then people get mad at me when I don't sit down and take it. Sadder! Guys, it's just a game. The sooner you think that ops aren't out to get you and the sooner you start playing the game as a competitive and interesting game the sooner you'll have fun. Meanwhile I'm content to do what I do behind the scenes as always, but if I have to drop out of the shadows to stop BS from spreading then I'm fine with it. You say that it's my fault no one likes me -- it's possible, but when people irrationally get mad at you it's kind of hard to win. I generally don't go around asking for people to kiss my feet until people start making ridiculous threads along the lines of "fix free game faster" or "sysop conspiracy." And even in that thread I was just telling you that you were free to take care of the problem on your own and laughing at your suggestion of conspiracy. Then you decided it would be cool to bug us to "be more active." Be sure to call me out when I start invoking my title and past work inappropriately because I haven't done it yet. About all I usually do is for purpose of being an authority on a particular subject. Bottom line: people getting mad at devs over not working and unpaid devs getting mad back = only natural. Don't know what your real problem is, but I guess we'll never know. Remember that we play the game too. Oh wow what a rant. INTERNET ARGUMENTS indeed. It would indeed be trivial but I fear for people irl who actually think like Lera does:( (NOTE THAT WAS INTENTIONAL JOKE CONDESCENDING REMARK LOL)

All of those solutions either don't fix the problem or are unacceptable.
