Actually, if people voted for what they wanted most it'd make me really happy and influence my item-making.

Possibly.

Maybe.

There's a chance that would happen.

You never know.

 

Edit: What's a booster?

&Voted for Addons, Emitters, 15000-20000 exp, sig & nonsig.

Like a boss.

ilook foward to getting the following item:

 

 

Super item pack - max out your ship with everything

25000 exp

$5000000

[Cheese]

lolpoll is lol

[Corey]

DarkMatter Mines

[kevinz000]

booster:makes other things be stronger or work better

also be true about votes i dont want poll flooded!

[kevinz000]

super item pack-too strong and expensive,not in my favor but spidernl maybe you can get a picture of how it works?

darkmatter mines:

disp:a mine so strong it can kill normal ships in 1 blast,has a built in energy reserve so you have enough energy to fire it,also has a e-thruster so you can get away when you deploy it

energy usage:1000

damage:1500

reload time:10 sec

price:10k exp and 70k money

signature item!

thrust:-1

speed:-1

energy:+1

pushback(the amount it pushes your ship back when you fire it):12

 

 

 

 

 

also ships should carry a bomb AND a mine(there should be a bomb and mine catagory and ships should have seperate bombs and mines and ships should use the mine's properties when you mine and use the bomb's properties when you bomb,also this may need a additional moudule for this to work

[kevinz000]

how about a warp drive that takes your ship to any coord but not anywhere close to a flag room?

il post more about this later now its hyperspace time!

The idea is somewhat interesting. Although I think the current FTL do their job just fine. Any more accurate than TW Key's "center coordinates" is a bit too exploitable.

The darkmatter mines - settings don't work that way. I can't make something do "1500 damage", it's dependant on level (to some extent), shrapnel (level), etc.

[kevinz000]

darkmatter mines-try to make damage high as possible

warp drives:well il leave it for now

everyone want any other items?

[kevinz000]

also make dark matter mines have atleast 10 shrap

and there should be dark matter bombs with 1000 nrg cost L4 bomb 15 sec reload 25 shrap L3 shrap and prox

[Arry]

I would really like to see some signature items at 3-5k experience designed for people who started late in the reset (like me).

 

In particular I would like to see lower experience sigs in sublight, reactor, guns, emitters and addons.

 

These items should be better than non-sig items, but not necessarily compete against later experience sigs. Or they should be different enough from the later experience sigs to provide a reasonable alternative.

 

EDIT: The poll is NOT broken, people voting for everything are breaking it.

Imagine the rage that would ensue.

[Arry]

srsly

[kevinz000]

whats so bad about that?

[Arry]

For the most part players viewed ammo as a hassle and unfun. Sometimes it's better to abstract reality, that is, remove elements of reality that are considered a hassle, when making computer games. I don't know any military, or law enforcement officer who wouldn't love to have a magical gun that never ran out of bullets if such a thing were possible. People come to escape the boredom of the real world. Having magical guns that shoot never ending bullets and bombs is just part of the fantasy we happily indulge in.

 

When an idea that was so thoroughly unliked as ammo gets put back on the shelf because of popular outcry, it's not going to go over well the second time either. There would be even more outcry, people quitting, etc than there was the first time the idea was implemented.

 

I'm guessing as an item designer the draw of ammo is that it gives you one more variable to play with. But trust spider, trust me. Players hate ammo.

I don't know what you mean by that, but if you mean somehow splitting up mine stats and bomb stats, that's simply not possible.

[Arry]

I think he wants to make items like point defense but instead of firing guns they fire bombs or drop mines. He would like you to do all the work of programming this capability into a module.... so that he can "invent" these items.
