Death+ says he has them but says they're for "SSCI Only" because he wants to "keep it in the family" and not provide resources for people doing "noob zones." I doubt he really has them.

Yeah I saw that when looking at some of the 3d rotation threads. Looks pretty good. Did you ever do any of the other ships?

Does anybody know if the origional 3d models of the subspace ships are available, or even a recreation? I see that ssdownloads has some "high res images with backdrops" (example: http://www.subspacedownloads.com/files/lrg_javelin.jpg ) that look BEAUTIFUL but I would really love the origional source files or whatever these are rendered from. Basically I want to make a shipset similar to the stock shipset but with some signifigant changes that would most easily be made with modifications to the origional models.

Repeatedly exploiting bugs does.

How come this guy abuses this spec bug almost constantly and yet I still see him around?

Lanc - wallbomb No question.

I don't think reshipping is a problem since your bounty gets reset if you reship, doesn't it? Turrets aren't that hard to kill, but a good driver makes it definitely harder. And ofcourse bullets don't effect turrets. When you shoot bullets, what happens when it hits one player? That's right, it doesn't hit anybody else.

Like all the threads about the racist stuff you did that you handily deleted? Yeah those.

I guess one of the mods didn't like the lively discussion that was going on and decided to silence pub completely. As of this moment there are NO public messages being sent, although priv freq chat works fine.

Yes it does. Reshipping also makes me spawn at 0,0. It hasn't done it for a little while, either. Also if I'm in a Lancaster, I'm invisible until I move.

When I join a private freq whenever I spawn or warp (hit ins, run into a wormhole, get bricked, etc) I spawn at 0,0 the very top left of the map (which is unfortunately a tiny open area which I can't escape-- the only way I can get out is by attaching or summoning.

Here are some simple observations and suggestions that I think could improve this zone signifigantly. Anti-death respawn with all utilities. You essentially have an invisible ship until your ship location updates on the other clients which lets you brick, rep a half dozen times, and scoot right by defenders. Bak has turned this into a veritable art. Respawn without utilities would be a suitable nerf, a lot of people I have discussed this with agree. Flagging or 'basing' as some call it is really turning into a game of compe!@#$%^&*ive Tetris more than anything. Set brick, wait for your enemy brick to disappear, repel, put another brick 5 tiles in. GOTO 10. Anti-death makes you a thousand times more effective at this. Maybe something can be done to turn this into an actual battle rather than a house building contest? Wallbombing. Cheap, easy kills with no skill. Annoying as !@#$%^&*. A perimeter around the bases outer wall is an easy way to fix this. You obviously can't remove every "trick" people can use to get easy kills, but this is fish in a proverbial barrel. Transwarp flag camping. The basic premise is this: if you have a tw p!@#$%^&* you can take the flags to the TW hub and you can essentially win without any resistance what so ever. If you drop in the TW hub they'll go outside the hub for a short period before the game wins (I was able to !@#$%^&* the flags quickly, once, when somebody dropped in the TW hub) but you can't shoot them to cause them to disgorge their flags. If you see anybody outside the TW hub waiting to get the flags, you just jump through one of the ways to another base before your flag timer expirers. Yes, you could be waiting at the other bases and have a TW P!@#$%^&* yourself but they're so expensive that solution is intractable. This "my way or the highway" at!@#$%^&*ude is just childish. Like the kid who is going to take his ball and go home. Yes, it's your zone and you make the ultimate decision but without other players you'd just be flying around in a circle by yourself, and what fun would that be? I think this is probably one of the more innovative zone designs in some time, even though the idea has been around for a while. There is a big disparity between "haves" and "have nots" which raises the bar of admission a bit; probably why the zone seems to be capped at about 30 users. The admins of the other large, successful zones knew it was about the players, not their egos. The programming for this zone isn't rocket science. Somebody could easily create a zone with a similar premise, almost identical design, balance it a bit better, make the barrier to entry a bit lower for new players, ditch the silly rules and juvenile mods.

I don't think he was implying at all that thors are a problem in center, but reps are. Reshipping for thors, however, is a major problem. Not in freying, but in flagging. We've all seen the crazy thor attacks flying when you're trying to win -- an impossible number from just a few ships with a bunch of reps. Lots of cheapness like that going on, not just a matter of have and have nots. Also I don't think "being seen as lame" is a deterent at all as seen by what I observe as a marked increase of wall-bombing base 3.

Yeah god forbid you actually make a change to the zone that the players want. That's the difference between a good zone and a lack luster zone. The good zones are there for the players. The lack luster zones are there so stupid smods have people to boss around.

Why don't you clearly define what you consider to be a "swear word?" I am unable to read your mind nor !@#$%^&*ertain what your outmoded values might consider "obscene." If you don't want us to use a word, then we need to know what they are. Is some mod who's having a pissy day going to decide that "the" is a swear and deduct $2000 from me like he did last night?

Is there some listing, maybe a webpage or a forum topic, where ALL the items, bombs, guns and ships are listed, with properties? Maybe somebody can do this easily? It would be very informative.

Who honestly cares about swearing any more in our modern society. And seriously phuzy buny why are you so concerned with it? You don't have better things to worry about? Do you think it's more right to just ignore things you don't like or try to press your view on obscenity on other people. Where is the line drawn, anyways, between obscene and not? I don't see a list of "banned words" like so many burned books. Maybe we should start complaining when people use the word "newb" too because that's certain offensive to some people.

NUMBER #1: FIX ARENA CHANGE CRASHING ZONE

It's kind of ridiculous that this hasn't been fixed yet. It's so easy to do and you can just stumble upon it. Hi-5 banned me for "continuously crashing the zone" WOOPS I did it by accident because it's the easiest thing to do accidentally. This silly bug makes the zone practically unplayable and makes it the laughing stock of Subspace. If you want I'll help you fix the zone! I bet you I could fix it in less than ONE DAY with appropriate access. Just fix it so this awesomely designed zone can actually function.
