JDS Posted January 6, 2007 Report Posted January 6, 2007 Apparently flagging is the main point of devastation, there is no debat here , lol BUT i dont like to play for 8hours and then share the win. It just doesnt make sense. From what i have gatherd over the years in subspace is that points mean how you stand in that zone, if your pro or have a noob score. So if a new player who just starts the zone gets in in the last 10min of a big flag game and racks up a 100mill score on a zone win, the balance of ranks among players is all messed up So I prepose coming up with a new system. Im not sure how anyone can just play everyday for hours and then share your bootey with the losers. Just doesnt make any Logical sense (to me) mabey just a test system :<
My Chemical Romance Posted January 6, 2007 Report Posted January 6, 2007 Why are points so important for you? It is just a game, and it is as easy as typing ?scorereset to wipe all of them off.. it is kind of silly to change the system for selfish reasons.. points are worth pretty nothing.. they only make more people play in deva because of the "OMGBIGJACKPOT" and that's what the owners want.. so try to carry on with it.. Mage+ gets angry when someone wins.. figures?
Hakaku Posted January 7, 2007 Report Posted January 7, 2007 I have to agree with MCR on this one. Points are pretty useless; you can't do anything with them in Deva in the end. (though back when we used the credits bot, that was a whole other story)
XDOOM Posted January 8, 2007 Report Posted January 8, 2007 The credit abilities will eventually come back with the ASSS work which is getting to near completion. The whole idea of points is to get as many as you can - the more points you have - the better of a player you are in the zone.Once a website is functioning the point stats will be posted online for all to see and compete against. I think the primary reason why points are being shared is because then people wont stop playing because they are always looosing. There has always been an option to limit the ships you can use based on the number of points you have - but that has never been impletemented in deva - and I dont know whether that is really a good idea. xdoom

It isn't, it would suck when a new guy would come in and can only play a few ships he counld't handle
PaRa$iTe Posted January 11, 2007 Report Posted January 11, 2007 I never had that much points in any zone, yet I think I've gotten past the "newb" stage. In jackpot flagging zones, points are really just a measure of a) how much you care about winning and how much you play. Of course, in turf / fraying zones, the a) point isn't valid.
No_Remorse Posted January 11, 2007 Report Posted January 11, 2007 I don't think the amount of points you have has anything to do with how skilled you are. I will milk a JP all day and all night if some jerkwad doesn't run win it. I don't think I've ever won the jackpot when a decent flag game is going on, always lose to run win.
Hal Posted January 11, 2007 Report Posted January 11, 2007 Maybe we could set a limit for the jackpot, so if it gets to a high amount it doesn't rise anymore.
My Chemical Romance Posted January 12, 2007 Report Posted January 12, 2007 that would have funny problems with the "megajackpot" game though..
Hal Posted January 12, 2007 Report Posted January 12, 2007 Yeah, you're right.. you're smart for an emo
My Chemical Romance Posted January 13, 2007 Report Posted January 13, 2007 ugh.. i didn't need that.. anyway do what you want, but it should just stay the way it is..
Gibbit Posted January 26, 2007 Report Posted January 26, 2007 two things, but only one matters.. so the mattery one is, uhhh if you made it so the jp stops at a certain ammount it should be just as easy to make it so mega jp disables that.......... .. .. ....... . . .. . . . . . ........ . . . ... . . . . . . . . ... . . .. . . .... . . .. .. .. ... . . . .. ...... . ... ... . . .. . . ... and second, I forgot
the_accountant Posted January 27, 2007 Report Posted January 27, 2007 im gonna have to go back and read, i forget what this post is about...
My Chemical Romance Posted January 28, 2007 Report Posted January 28, 2007 It is just about being selfish with the useless points.. don't worry..
