Guest Posted August 25, 2003 Report Posted August 25, 2003 Free poll do avoid cheaters. Options; 1) ?go oldmap2) ?go oldmap23) ?go opal4) (other, insert pubmap name here) Include comments such as if you want it to be permanent or just for a scorereset period or anything else you want to say about settings/pubmaps. Personally I think a new version of ?go oldmap would be the best. Simply because 17th was made for that style of map. Settings should be like they were before Nurples and Zeke started changing them. Like in ?go oldmap2 but with some differences (like the real ?go oldmap2 was originally); Anti-warp, stealth and cloak doesn't drain any energy in any ship.Spider guns doesn't have double barrel.As for the weasel, I think we should design a new fighter that could compete with the jav, not be superior. This isn't very hard to do and it would open the doors to new events. Seriously, I've played in a lot of zones for lïkë 2 years. We used to have very unique ships.. now it all just feels the same : Quote
DaKillaRoach Posted August 25, 2003 Report Posted August 25, 2003 hmm... i'm with Zion here :-S Too many of the ships are just that little bit too similar, prehaps because they were all designed to be fighter ships but you switch between the ships the differences arent as great as they used to be, and this is slowly showing through more and more. (Speedball for Map ^_^ ) Quote
madhaha Posted August 25, 2003 Report Posted August 25, 2003 1) Scoreset period is not set by us. We could decrease the period by setting a game time but not increase it. 2) Isn't this topic totally redundant? Why did you bring it up again maka? [EDIT] Oh, I see you've double posted. How thoughtful. Someone delete the other thread. Opal map, current pub or pre experimentation settings (with the weasel "no recharging while stealthed and massive ship damage" penaulty). Quote
kentbrockman Posted August 25, 2003 Report Posted August 25, 2003 speedball not really though.... i like the map we have now. Quote
DaKillaRoach Posted August 25, 2003 Report Posted August 25, 2003 i suppose a different map wouldnt go admiss and it would bring back some extra if not estinguished fun from 17th. Lets try something else even for a few days to have some sort of change, because although change sparks arguments it brings back freshness Plus it means we can think of new maps to kill people Quote
talion Posted August 26, 2003 Report Posted August 26, 2003 OPAL OPAL OPAL!those bases were great... and i think we're hitting larger overall populations in pub now, so it's time for some bigger bases. it also combined flags + goals. <3 opal!!! Again, on another note: why is akai allowed to say things like"who cares, the settings blow" it's not contributing to the current discussion, and is basically here to piss people who like the current settings off (few as they may be).

Tipme Posted August 26, 2003 Report Posted August 26, 2003 yea i can say the same stuff he does and it'll get deleted Quote
Rishadan Posted August 26, 2003 Report Posted August 26, 2003 I think we should change the settings back when they had the north/south map (forget which oldmap that was.) Those sets were tight, these new sets are all loosy goosy. The small weasel seems so random, should change that. Quote
talion Posted August 26, 2003 Report Posted August 26, 2003 zioneer, when i "abused" i hadnt received the rules files yet, and yes it was somewhat incorrect. im so sorry i silenced you when you deserved it... but dont tell me akai hasn't read the announcements forum. "they dont bother me as i dont play 17th Pub." if you dont play pub now why would changing the sets change that fact? the current weasel isn't random, it does take skill to use believe it or not. its just that most people make it far too easy for them to die to weasels because they can pack alot of damage in a short amount of time. if you've been firing alot expect to die to a weasel or shark, that's just common sense. try to fire less and see what happens. and if you're looking for 1v1 duels in pub, you're playing the wrong game. everyone hates weasels because they always vulch. that's because they are the fastest ship and have this uncanny knack to see a fight on radar, then go in and steal a kill or two. if the weasel were made slower people would hate the shark just as much i think.

BlitzkriegStrike Posted August 26, 2003 Report Posted August 26, 2003 ?GO OLDMAP2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Quote
madhaha Posted August 26, 2003 Report Posted August 26, 2003 I got an amusing number of complains about my cloaker vulching when I've a) Not been cloaked or stealthed Had them running straight at me Don't try to rationalise the anti weasel hatred. Quote
