Couple of my own suggestions (I will not repeat stuff other people have said above, read comments on those): Guns: Arcfire Array is somewhat useless now that shrap level is based on bombs. Loses to plasma on gun ships due to no bounce. Shrap Booster sucks. The difference between lvl 4 shrap and lvl 3 shrap is not very high. In the following, I'll be mostly referring to the jav, but also applicable to the other ships. With shrap booster(from now on referred to as SB), a jav can only kill in center by baiting the opponent to rush mindlessly at him, then punish him for his mistake. If a wb or another jav simply stays and "camps" in place, it will be pretty much impossible for the jav with SB to win. The difference between a falcon missile with SB and one without is minimal, with a maximum of ~100 damage difference. Now, that might seem relatively high, but if you look at the side effects, it will not be as good. +35 bomb energy and +10 bomb delay is quite high, especially considering that due to SB, you have nothing to defend yourself with if your bomb misses, and is pretty much a free kill to your opponent unless you run away, which is again, trying to force a mistake out of the other player. Essentially, unless the other player makes a mistake, it is not possible to win with SB Falcon in center. Now, compare this to a jav with pulse and falcon instead of SB and falcon. Now, should he hit once, he is able to follow up his attack with a barrage of guns, and also gives you the oppurtunity to finish off an opponent after he has been weakened. If you miss, you can still use your guns to defend. Because of the ability to follow up, the damage from a Falcon missile from a jav with pulse is actually more threatening than one from one with SB, due to the fact that, when the jav with pulse hits you once, they can actually kill you, as opposed to the jav with SB, where you can simply get into a "defensive position", and it will be very difficult for the jav to follow up. My suggestion: Remove the +bombdelay and +bombenergy on sb, and change its effects back to shrap +1 instead of changing it to l4. Gigajoule Railgun Is useless. I have yet to see ANY ship use this successfully. Either buff, or replace. Positron Gun Is surpassed by disruptor in center, and in base, it is surpassed by pulse, due to the fact that pulse and disruptor do not require a sig. Bombs Space Mines Should be available on warbird and lanc. Zephyr and Yamato Both suffer from the same problem, so I will address both here. They are both outclassed by smart bomb, due to the fact that smart bomb is not a sig. Antimatter Mines Are useless other than for centering, and even then, it is difficult to get kills. Not worth the sig. Reactors Dual Core -4 rotation is just too difficult to use. Perhaps reduce to -2 rotation? would make it much more useful. Sublights Ion drive Is outclassed by carnot where ab is not needed, and beta otherwise. Armors Wave Disperser Is kinda useless due to the fact you get raped by anything that isn't smart, sop, or harpy. Glow Cover Should change the penalties. Right now, -1 Energy and -1 recharge simply isn't worth it. Either make it like a mini solid nut, or increase gundelay, bombdelay, gunenergy, bombenergy. Addons Cloak Shaper Why does it have -1 energy? Aren't the penalties of just USING cloak and stealth at the same time enough, along with the reduced movement? Tunnel Runner Why is this even here? It used to have +2 speed, which was fine as it was. Now +1 maxspeed plus a boost while in HT (lol) is not worth an addon slot when you can use maxwell instead... Mounts Combo Mount I know this was mentioned previously, but I think that you should remove combo mount on Lanc,warbird, and jav, and put it on shark. The shark can still only get 3 repels, due to the lack of deflector shield, and is currently underpowered as a rusher. The only reason sharks are even used in basing is to cloak past the enemy...By putting combo mount on it, it can be a competent rusher, as well as reduce the number of Warbird, jav, and lanc rushers, as there seem to be WAY too many currently. Thanks for reading this long ass post.

So what if you gave the bot the money, but the guy didn't accept? you just lost whatever you gave the bot, lol.

This is useful. Thanks.

Well, I'm taking that stuff in 11th grade, how do you think i'll do? =/ P.S. I plan to study Computer science at Waterloo a couple years down the road...my academic life is quite similar to Syrith's actually >___>

This made me laugh EDIT: p.s, that screenie makes me sad; all the people who used to play who i never see anymore...

Bye.

This.

Well, I suppose I said something wrong there by saying all staff is corrupt, but what I meant was, some staff was corrupt, so sorry bout that.

Is that a statement subtly hinting that mods have never abused before?

What the guy with the scar said.

Well, if that was true, then you may as well remove half the staff.

Honestly, I think you're all being quite immature about all this. Arnk does his job. He may be a dbag about it, but he does his job. You guys are whining about how he's a dbag, but disregarding all the stuff the he does for the zone. (I remember brain or d1 told me some of the stuff he did that wasn't useless, but i forget, although i think i believe it was important). Honestly, I think you should just stop posting these useless threads, grow up, and play the game. You know, I really cannot believe that I just wrote the above paragraph, truly. Those of you that knew me last year or earlier would know that I really, really, really disliked arnk back then. I believe I actually purposely got banned from hs for 1 month so I could get away from him. For those that don't know, I spammed about 300 lines of crap that told arnk to do something very rude to himself. Anyway, I would pick fights with him every single time just for the hell of it. I thought the whole staff was corrupt, and made it a point to mention it to them every time I saw them, although I had my reasons for this. Pretty much, I was just like you guys. I don't know what changed me in the last year. Probably a mixture of real life stuff with a year of not playing hs. Right now, I really don't care if the staff is corrupt, and I don't care whether Arnk is a dbag or not. I've learned to accept that no matter what we do, Arnk won't get fired unless extenuating circumstances occur. I've learned to overlook his personality, and just play the game. I think you guys should do the same. Ignore him if you have to, but just know that it doesn't matter whether the staff is corrupt or not. On another matter, if they took out privs...that would be a completely different story. Honestly, I really don't care what you guys think of me after this post, and I really don't care what Arnk, d1, or brain say about this either. Feel free to ridicule me, qq at me, call me a suckup, or whatever. But I honestly don't even care about Arnk anymore, and neither should any of you. Peace out, Arctic

Honestly, I think that 3 player privs seems reasonable. 4 would make a turret, but a 2 person turret wouldnt be that good, especially with the huge abundance of thors nowadays. The 3 person privs allow friends to be able to play with each other, but not so overpowering. I mean, pubs already 3v1 people, what's the difference, eh?

My computer is 2 floors away from my router, and I use wireless, so that might be a bit difficult.

It's happened to me as well. Don't try selling them for profit though. Trust me, I tried. Bad things will happen >_<

The DC = forfeit thing sucks. otherwise its great

I said you love to, that doesnt mean that you did, it means that you love to.

And you sure love to show that you can.

Interesting facts: 5 resets ago: avg 25 players. 4 resets ago: avg 45 players 3 resets ago: avg 60 players 2 resets ago: avg 30 players 1 reset ago: avg 25 players current: avg 15 players What does that tell you about the last 3 resets?

Wow. I actually agree with arnk here. I cannot be drawn into the dark side! *Shields eyes* Alter ego - dont they have cookies?

Don't duel noobs.

Lera, why are you a different person in every single photo you post?
