Does this mean youre going to build some kind of "smart" goal.. So that say, the more exp between the "scorer" and the "team" determines how much/little the rest of the team gets? eg. A 500 exp player scores, so those with 1500 exp get 3exp vs a 1500 exp player scoring gets the other 1500 exp players 1 exp?

You do realize, that on freq's like KOTH freq's or whatever, could have a "decent" equalizer on it.. As much as I hate to suggest it, even tho I don't, having an equalizer like MG used to have, in use on KOTH freq's only, would prevent all "Vets" from joining on one KOTH freq because it would auto set them to another freq when using ?koth or whatever you'd use to activate it.. And if for some reason one team had people quit or go to flagging, or really, whatever reason, it would just move some of the players from the one, or two, or however many freqs, to balance it.. Was a really nice system all in all..

Just another idea, but is there a way to set the goal rewards by WHO makes the goal... Like say, a 500exp player makes the goal, and he makes more than a 1500 exp person... That would employ more of a teamwork effort... It would take the ships of the vets, to get passed the other ships, to get the newb closer to the goal... It gives the vets something to fight for to make the exp, and in turn, makes the newb feel useful, and also has a way of having team members help him stay alive.. More food for thought... This would also discourage full Vet teams, knowing that having a newb on your team would score you more payout..

As old as the concept is, I'm surprised it wasn't suggested from the jump.. We need a KOTH... One that moves around.. It gives everyone something to compete for.. I'd suggest thinking about either bringing back Priv's or maybe increasing the multifreq's to be able to have up to 5 members.. KOTH has and always will start good battles in center among any amount of people.. That or you MAY decide to have a set amount of freq's that could hold the hill, in which case it would have to be a set of freq's, like flag freqs, that had no limit as to the amount of ppl that could be on them.. Although, on this last thought, that would also allow people to jump to those freq's and wreak havoc in center as 2 freq's, or however many hill freq's, to wage war in center as large opposing freq's, which in itself could be fun as well... Reward for the hill on the other hand is up for debate.. Seeing as this could be abused very simply to gain whatever reward may be up for grabs, I'd suggest also setting a minimum amount of players and/or amount of frequencies playing before it is activated.. I recommend a Hyperspace themed hill to maintain.. Shouldn't be too hard to implement.. I would just keep the radius of the hill to stay in center.. As fun as it would be to be able to try to hold a hill in the hypertunnels, I fear that it would also allow the hill into bases and sector 8 which could make the hill unholdable if it should appear in a base during a flaggame.. As remote as it may be that this would happen, I watched it happen many times when we had it active in Halo.. Just food for thought..

Is this SSForums or SSNursery? Hard to tell from all the QQ'ing...

Kind of funny.. I never said anything about them being able to carry flags.. lol.. I was just thinking that having 5 man (max) private frequencies that only squad members could use would make center a little more interesting... I for one would agree with them being able to carry flags, but to be honest, I've had enough of the changing of the bases for the moment.. xD I think the squads would be small enough at the moment that 5 max would be a good number.. Also, just because you can't pick up a flag, doesn't mean you can't keep THEM from picking it up either as long as you're in center... lol

Okay, before y'all are stupid an post "there are no squads in HS", that's the whole idea of this post.. I personally have a pretty good squad in HS and we do pretty well.. I want other squads to also be formed, if possible, so that we can actually have a reason for leagues and whatnot.. Now, what I'm proposing here is, I'd like brain to give us "squad" frequencies.. Something we could register here, which would bring forum usage up, and also would add to a reason to actually HAVE a league something or other.. A dueling league, a match type league, a 2v2, a 4v4, etc.. I propose these frequencies hold, maybe, 5 people max, but that are password locked.. That way only squads could join them.. We could set it up to where we register the frequency here and then pm or ?message brain the password so he could set it up.. I'm curious how many would be interested in actually doing this.. It would raise population in the zone as well as forum usage.. I think this would be beneficial to HS itself.. Just food for thought..

Cool thx... I'll look into that... I knew there had to be an easy way to do it... But how do you activate it? Other than loading the module obv.. xD

http://i275.photobucket.com/albums/jj314/RutRow/screenshot2.jpg Sure would like to know where I can get my hands on this....

That would work for the top ten.. Would be better if there was just a ?rank type command.. And as for the IV, you can have it.. I keep coming back more because you never know what kind of crazy stuff is gonna happen from one day to the next... xD

Bug me (Dr Brain) on the forums to fix this page until I actually do. Okay this is like the third week I been seeing this... So now I'm bugging ya... Fix the site... Keep wanting to check the top10 for the zone and can't.. Well, that and other things.. I'd like to check what the popular items are now and stuff... So Git R Dun man...

Calling all graphic artists! Fields need a face lift!
WhiskeyTango replied to Masaru's topic in Zone Development
Here's the gfx files for those who cant take the lvz apart... Also, I would recommend, if you intend to do any type of animated stuff, that you use .png graphics to do them.. This will keep your file size down, which is relatively important... You might want to use 8-16 bit color so that the noobs who run in the lower settings, so they can play, wont have a color alteration from what you originally made it with.. Just food for thought... -
As everyone knows, I like to play hyperspace just a little.. xD My suggestions are simple: If there isn't a way to fix the fields at the moment, the one disabled brick, etc, could you remove them from the buy list.. It would give the new people less to look through wondering what it does.. Especially if they don't work.. Setting new people up to ask stupid questions usually gets them trolled and ran off.. Bad for pop.. Is there any way the lanc could carry only the small brick, could be useful in center or in ht when being attacked by two or more ships.. May only give a few seconds to evade, but would also give you time to get some help.. Most lancs are not fast enough to get out of gun or bomb range of the smaller ships.. I think this would be used more defensively than offensively seeing as it wont block most hallways fully.. If there is a way to speed up the rotation on pd a little.. Right now it has a little bit of retarded speed.. This would make it harder for ppl like me to kill the pd ships, but a challenge is most welcome.. Right now its more efficient to just go where the pd is aiming rather than its rotating fast enough to catch up to someone drifting around you unless you're like Captain Kirk and have a fast bomb, otherwise we kill the pd ships pretty easy.. Make wb and jav auto on signup, if they can be.. Get people involved before they have to go through the whole buy scenario.. Most of the new people I see come in, spend 15 minutes and get frustrated and leave, especially with the fore-mentioned "pros knocking this build, telling them to buy that build".. For some people who play HS regularly they could care less, but new people are always fun to have.. Sometimes they can surprise you and put a total random build to good use.. Would be a lot more helpful if they didn't have to spend the first 10 minutes trying to figure out how to get in the game.. Yes, they could just read F1, but out of 100 new people, how many do you think actually read it.. Not all zones set up their F1 with useful information.. Oh yes, and just to be greedy, make extra sig attainable please... hahahaha
