death of ss?

[Avast]

Lynx is one of those people who quietly rage while im trolling others. In game it happens a lot, it's actually the best, because I don't actually have to seek out these people to troll them. I can just do my own thing and people get mad in spec. Mom is another prime example.

 

Anyway I don't see why I can't talk about DSB in here. The thread is about SS dying. DSB was like 20% of the ss community population. It is a valid example. As well the topic creator started with the sentance..

 

"ive had to sit and watch zone after zone get infested with cancer and die."

 

Which means zones are part of the topic, at least to me. Let me know if I get off topic. Aside from myself being insulted for my opinion, I don't see anything wrong here.

It's only trolling when you're pretending to be dumb; not when you're actually are dumb.

Eridu> summer was complets shit

Falconeer> dude

Falconeer> zones joining up wont fix dsb

Falconeer> retard

Falconeer> and when i say this some of you get enraged and ban me for just saying the truth

Falconeer> rofl

Falconeer> if its so good, play it

 

Eridu> and i silenced u btw, change the banner plz if u come back. if u are allowed to be on dev team and can have then u can put it,just make sure first. i dont want u to get banned. plz try to approach things differently

It's only trolling when you're pretending to be dumb; not when you're actually are dumb.

 

You think I'm smart, thats nice. Most people don't know how to attack or hurt me, so they analyze me for my greatest talents/traits (one being that i am very smart) and attempt to knock those talents/traits down, in an attempt to harm me. However, I know how you think and why you think it, so I generally just see this as people acknowledging my superior intellect.

 

After all would you walk up to a kid with downsyndrome and call him stupid? Unlikely. If it's true, and obvious, there is no need to say it.

Unless you actually do walk up to disabled kids, and call them stupid whenever you see one?

[XO-MANOWAR]

Falc...could you spew more redundant,meaningless Bullshit PLS?We didnt get enough the first 57,000 times...

[Avast]

It is redundant, since dsb keeps digging its own grave, despite the fact i tell them what to fix, and even when i offered maps they declined everything i ever did, and tried to keep me from helping etc. Their continual failure already harmed the whole of ss making dsb meaningless.. I think Subspace lost 10-20% of its population as DSB died.

 

While I was in dsb, i was gagged, their rules only state racism, swearing etc. Not opinion. They don't like that I have a mind they can't control. They would tell me how to think if they could. This is like Orwells 1984. Sure you can do what you want in your zone but 1. you wont have players 2. don't make rules stating one thing and then do another (at least make rules to follow what you want, or follow the rules you made) If there was a rule saying they could gag me if they don't like what i have to say. Then I wouldn't care what they do. The reason they don't have a rule saying they'll do whatever they want is because no one would play there if they did.

 

Then I was restricted from bombers, and given engine shut downs for killing from NKZ. Another archaic old rule, that serves no purpose. 1. If you don't like killing nkz, then remove nkz from the deathstar, they mutilated the map when they put NKZ's inside the deathstar. 2. EG and every other zone has spawn or NKZ killing and no rules to ban you for playing rofl, and the freedom to allow players to play how they want to. Such a joke rule.

 

PS Its easier to get nkz kills in a fighter, than it is in a bomber, so they actually made it worse. Bomber has things like proximity which get in the way.

Someone mind splitting Avasts's post into a seperate topic for DSB bashing?

[Resol]

Avast is the cancer, its people like him that make the game not fun for others. And its clearly obvious this child has nothing better to do than do every thing is his power to try and get under the skin and any person willing to read his nonsense.

 

Put yourself in the eyes of a new player. Do you want to play a game with a guy like him?

[spidernl]

When did this topic turn into Avast obsessing over DSB? Edited November 24, 2011 by spidernl

[Samapico]

I only read quickly, but apparently Avast thinks that it would be somehow useful to make features in DCME that aren't even supported by the client?

[»1587200]

The fact of the matter is this: without the development of this game, its end was inevitable. Over 15 years and nothing has changed in this game, and you're all bitching about politics and DSB and your e-penises and rules and regulations and blah blah blah. In the gaming world you either have to continue forward, or re-invent yourself. You can't stay stagnate for almost two decades and actually believe you're going to have new players. In all honesty, all the politics and everything else mentioned wasn't even apparent to regular players. When I first started I never knew any of that stuff. It wasn't apparent until I started staffing and coming to these forums, where the politics and bullshit was always posted in the open, that I knew what was going on.

 

When it comes down to it, you can't have a 15 year old game that doesn't progress. Who the hell would want to play a 15 year old game on a consistent basis? Even mega games like Counter Strike are taking a hit because they never developed. The exception to that though, is the fact that it DID develop into Counter Strike: Source. What has Continuum developed in to? It's the same thing with a different skin on it.

 

If you really want to save this game, you find a coder who's talented enough to reverse engineer what's currently here (like Pritt did in the first place) and actually gives a damn, or you find someone who's willing to do it for money, and you progress the game. Without that, no new player is going to give a shit. And why should they? No amount of advertising or article writing or site updates or domain changes will bring in new players. If anything, it will just alert people who used to play the game that the game is still alive.

 

"Oh look, an ad for Continuum. I remember playing that 10 years ago. I wonder what's happened since....[plays game].... absolutely nothing....[uninstall]. Back to playing something else."

 

And that's how it goes. Without someone to recode this game and move it forward, there's really no logical reason why it would survive. You can sit here and fight, bicker and complain about it all you want, but in the end it will get you no where. Cut your loses and move on to something else. Maybe turn the community in to a gaming community. Or, just go your separate ways. That is, unless, you can do anything about the current situation.

Wow it's syrusmx.. thought u died.. this topix is so sad.. all u people r just sad being so negative

ss not dead yet! we can all work together to save ss space ships!

 

lol avast/falconeer sad

[SeVeR]

Can we just get a lottery winner or a wealthy person to put a 20k into developing this? There must be someone rich enough out there to sort this out. Even then, would any of the sysops in this zone submit to someone wanting to do that? They'll be more concerned about losing their power, even if that power is dissipating to nothingness.

[»jabjabjab]

This video has the same logical erosion as this topic.

[Avast]

so do statements with no supporting evidence.

[VanHelsing]

You have a 16 year old game going up versus Xbox Live, Steam or PSN games. It's tough, damn tough. If someone is actually developing a client using XNA I'd be interested in helping, maybe we can do something for Xbox Live Arcade / Games For Windows.

 

I honestly don't see too much of a future for the game as is, or the game with a new client. Who will it cater for? The same players that are still around and perhaps a few others but that would be a massive amount of work for something with little to no benefit.
