Well if any of you have ever been to RedStar you know that the setts are a lot of fun and the flag games too.

 

But recently our population has plummeted (we won't go into why :( ).

 

Anyways, I just want to tell everyone that we are putting up a brand new map and hosting a 20mil jackpot game this Sunday (April 15th) at around 11am EST and I would like to ask everyone to come.

 

It will be a lot of fun and will hopefully be the first step forward in "reviving" RedStar.

 

Regards, TerminatioN (RedStar SMOD)

20 million is worth nothing in newbie zones whereas points run like water and have very little actual use or value.

And then, there's this being a newbie zones = settings out of mountain crap's !@#$%^&*mound.

If you are going to try and flame at least have/use a valid point.

 

Points have very little actual use or value? Orly? Ever heard of "?buy" ?

 

Now you even get credits for winning a big jp, the higher the jp the more credits you get.

 

With the credits you earn you can buy even more stuff. Try :RS-Public:!buy

 

I'd respond to your last sentence, but your apparent lack of decent grammar is making it !@#$%^&* near impossible. LURN EENGLEESH

All these newbie zones are alike.

More fire rate, more damage, more items, more points...zero skill, zero accomplishment, zero joy for anyone sophisticated above the lowest common dominator.

Yes you flock more quan!@#$%^&*y, but you lack any quality.

 

The newbie trend of thought is: quick gratification, which translates to faster, easier and quicker kills which then become lots of points and more points per kill, per flag game per...not doing much really.

And then of course, since everyone are winning an obnoxious amounts of points the ?buy items price go through a horrendous inflation and the ?buy is hardly used or only certain items are being abused.

IE: gain 50,000,000,000 points so you can buy prox, because being a newbie zone, prox makes you nearly unstoppable.

So a beginner can rarely if ever use ?buy until they've been around for several flag games and happened to be on the winning team, which is usually some private team.

What's the difference between using a 1 point per bounty system with energy upgrades costing 1000 to one where's all is at 5000:1 ratio multiplier? Simple. SVS takes skill and allows all. Newbie zones play little for skill and think little of the beginner and rarely ever show balance while catering to the dumbest of mindsets and cultivate 'trench' mentality whereas 'dueling' is to a notion that 'skill' is having enough lag to jump someone's bullet, 5000x5000 resolution (they actually had to set res limit to trench, just goes to show how crappy and imbalanced the place is) and hitting afterburners by making a very huge guess 0.1 a second before your enemy fires).

 

Pathetic.

 

And credits...I won't even go onto that.

 

In addition, I would respond to your last sentence, but I can't understand your Yankee-Speech.

Learn English, ignorant American bore.

Yeah Grav, you have no point in posting here.

 

Didn't your mother ever teach you, "If you have nothing nice to say, say nothing at all." You should really learn that rule. Don't be a prick because other people have a NON-SVS zones and they want them to succeed. Just shutup and move on to another topic.

If you have nothing good to say about genocide, say nothing at all.

Silence and censorship are the weapons in the disposal of evil men, like the nazis.

I make my voice heard.

 

If you come to spam about your zone like anyone would care then learn to live with criticism to follow.

This is my oppinion about your newbie zone, adjust.

ur oppinion doesnt count here so give it a rest already. U like the sets u like and we like the sets we like so it doesnt matter what u say. to us ur zone may be a piece of !@#$%^&* but do our oppinions count no they dont so get lost. mega_shok.gif

Actually, its pretty sad but, I agree with grav. Ive been telling kewl those very same things for a while. I even offered to redo the setts if he was too lazy to do it. People dont understand that 50,000,000 points is the same as 5 points, as long as you make the reward in the right ratios. Then with all the newbie zones, you have to worry about negative points since you get 50mil per game.

 

Edit: Also, another note, this is a public forum. You posted this so everyone can see it. Even tho grav is lame and he bashes RS, thats kinda what you posted here for. He is just giving his opinion, if you cant take the critisism, then thats pretty sad. Spooky, are you even staff? You are taking this harder than anyone else.

 

Im on nobodys side, im just staying my opinion.

No im not staff. I dont care what anyone has to say about the zone some of the stuff could be made better but its not and u just have to deal with whats there if u dont like it dont play it simple as that, not everyone feels the same as he does. Since prox are powerful they should be rare to buy why would u want a zone full of proxed people all the time no1 would play there cause there is shrap which does alot of the damage and without shrap would be a rip off of t3g so what would u like them to do...

Is your game unplayable? Is your zone like this? "Bullets fire twice

as fast! All ships fly faster than the jav! fire 8 level 4 bombs at

once with 64 shrapnel! 6000 energy!" If so - your zone sucks.

 

"Super Zones" are the typical rookie zone that vets avoid like the

plague. The thinking tends to be that "16 shrapnel is fun so 32 will

be double as much fun!" it isn’t. Game restraint and balance is a

very delicate process and a well balanced ship mixture is tough to

get right. When in doubt DOWNGRADE don’t upgrade' date=' you will always be

better off.[/quote']
