Powerball Thoughts

[op2rules]

Okay well, I'm bored right now and thought I should make a thread about SOMETHING, so here goes.

 

The Powerball started off with 2 nets, and when no basegame was going on each team guarded their own net and a score would give 10k+ in high pop levels. This was WAAY back, but just a quick refresh to people who don't remember.

 

Then there was no powerball, for a quite long period of time.

 

Then there WAS a powerball, where you would priv with a few friends and score away. Scoring gave a bit less money than centering, but was still something to do when you weren't in the mood to kill. It also involved teamwork which was a good idea IMO.

 

Now powerballing is killed because you can no longer priv and the scores are lowered because it thinks the team is way to big, and even if they weren't what's the point of balling if everybody is going to get the reward, not putting you ahead at all. OFC this is being fixed which is why I decided to make this thread.

 

I personally think the powerball should go back to the old team based nets where there were only 2, both quite far appart. For sure lower the scores to make it more reasonable, but make them worthwhile. With only 2 nets team based you can either defend your net from players trying to score on you, or try to do the opposite. Possible put the nets in 2 corners of center, or even one in square 1 (not in base) and on in the opposite corner (I believe its 5). Either way, the general concept stays the same.

 

What you guys think?

No... almost every detail of powerballs is the way it is now due to undesirable things that happened as a result of what it was before. Rewards were already increased yesterday. Keep in mind the jackpot is no longer split, so people who want to encourage a real flag game can rack up the jackpot. What I did yesterday was a mini-event where I added a second powerball and doubled the jackpot after several goals were scored.

You shouldn't remember the good without the bad. Way back then, there were no flag games. Zero, none.

Hmm that's very true Brain, didn't think of that.

 

Ok so I'm not quite sure what Kilo was saying here, the poweballs WILL add to the jackpot now??
