..You have 15 FPS when not moving your mouse off screen? What? Edit: To keep things on topic: I think the 'lock winning freq' proved to be worse than you make it look. 10v20s were quite common, and everyone basically panicked when all 12 flags were held, as they could get overwhelmed in seconds if enough players joined. Not to mention how easy it is for 'lame' players to abuse the system and decide to, with a few friends, wait for the lock and then jump in and mess up the team balance. Edit 2: To comment on point 3, I don't really like adding commands to 'cash out' your earnings. I'd rather find a better solution to ragequiting.

Oh, by the way, tl;dr is short for "Too long, didn't read". Edit: And I didn't say it was related to the game, I'm just saying that the 'parts' of the story are similar in length and events to a level. That's probably because they're basically 99% shootouts.

Gotta admit, kevinz mastered 'irony'.

He's a brain surgeon in real life of course, therefore 'Dr' and 'Brain'. Disclaimer: the above might not be entirely true.

Eh.. what?
-
Reading part of it, it seems most like a game plot. As in, the events are rather.. level-like. That's not really criticism, just how it looks to me.

Honestly, posting this kind of stuff on Hyperspace's trash talk forums, you shouldn't expect many responses you like Try some halo forums instead?
-
Quite likely not to hop. A more likely reason is to rake in more leech money from having little to no experience. Mainly since there's nothing in place that'd make hopping require an alias swap.

If what polix posted is true (which I assume it is), I'd say there's plenty of reason to netban him.

Omg obscene language
-
The best of these options, in my opinion, is some sort of anti-hopping system which may or may not be based on IP. People are pathetic enough to swap aliases to hop? Sigh.

What kind of proof are you looking for exactly?

Not really. Didn't this youtube hype already end a while ago? Edit: Moved to trash talk

At the place where Hyperspace is a democracy and changes are made by letting the population vote.

Yay for me.

Oh, didn't read the title. What were you banned for?
-
Don't even know who you are, why did you post in these forums?

The problem is that one step back - 1 less bullet energy - leaves it overpowered. Messing with delay isn't an option either, that'd have far more noticeable effects. To be honest it's mainly placebo effect. "it's been nerfed, therefore it's a lot worse". I think it's fine now: incredible damage output with a weapon level that has no real countering armor against it either. More efficient than most other guns as well. Sig-worthy, I'd say. The difference is just that a different signature like Flash, Omega or System Optimizer is actually a decent option, rather than a way to gimp yourself versus Sharp users.

Nice personal attack there. I didn't do this after any lost duels (who did I lose against exactly, then?). The most direct trigger was Mistarbob (for the record: I consider him one of the best warbird duelers, and while that doesn't mean I instantly act on his request, it does mean I consider it. Not to mention that he used Sharppinger in all of the previous resets) saying at the current stats he'd still use it over every other signature on a warbird. I then did number crunching, some 'live testing', and agreed. +1 bulletenergy is a quite minor nerf anyhow. If I hadn't told anyone, nobody would even realize. Same thing happened last time when I added 1 bulletenergy to sharppinger. People just imagine that they do a lot worse because of the nerf, while in reality it's more of a placebo effect. Whether or not the Proton Beam buff was required I'm not as sure about. It might just go back to 16. Right now nothing in the database suggests that to be necessary though. For the record, I just dueled omni. He went 4-6 against me with Sharppinger, 2-5 against me with Mass Driver. Doesn't mean much, but hell.

I've got a concept for a new item set ready. Since that works from a "Put less junk on your ship and you'll move faster" principle, that also means that stock ships will be among the fastest. This means that going 'simple' in terms of ship design has its advantages. It'll also mean that 'newbies' are at a significantly smaller disadvantage.

Xog, seriously, how can you complain about derailing a thread if you're the guy doing it? Edit: oh, and something off topic by me then: @Dr Brain: If you happen to scroll over this, check your private messages please

People who think their neighbor's internet is too slow and prefer their own connection.

I've been considering adding another parasite-like item. But I think adding 'a lot' would just start to get boring, unoriginal, etc.
-
Yeah, I've been getting 'internal errors' every couple refreshes as well.
