This is going to be quite lengthy, but i hope is a fairly honest opinion, and ill try not to be biased.

I think its safe to say the zone needs change, and i think that there is alot of things that can be done, or at least tried.

 

These are the things that i think will improve/revolutionise the zone.

 

First shipset -

Warbird - beautifully crafted, full marks Vile, base sets around this.

Javelin - nothing changed still deals the damage, its good.

Spider - ive got plans for this below, but no change from this.

Levi - love the rocket and portal, almost makes levi fun ;)

Terrier - 50:50 its like an opposite to its older brother, defenderish.

Weasel - i think the zone needs fun and funkyness, love it. tad lame

Lancaster - seems a tad weak, but i havent tried it.

Shark - does seem weak, but havent tried.

 

Ive been having a few ideas and some other zone had credits, i was wondering if (for example) 10 credits could be awarded for a goal, and 1 point awarded for a kill.

Then using credits to buy upgrades on each ship. This is based on say a max of 2000 kills per scorereset.

 

Veteran - (Just for example)

Warbird (50 credits) - free X radar

Javelin (50 credits) - ability to pick up 1 portal.

Spider (50 credits) - upgrade to 1400 energy?

Levi (50 creds) - double top speed, v expenive draining X radar.

Terr (50 creds) - ability to hold 2 turrets with no loss of speed.

Weasel (50 creds) - ability to stealth??

Lancaster (50 creds) - ability to pick up 1 portal maybe? ask the lancs

Shark (50 creds) - free stealth.

 

Elite - again just for example maybe 1000 creds - needs working out

Warbird (500 creds/1000?) - max energy 2000 + veteran ability.

Javelin (500 creds) - purple bullets + veteran

Spider (500 creds) - blue bullets + veteran

Levi (500 creds) - purple bombs + veteran ( now that would be fun )

Terrier (500 creds) - ablilty to hold 4 turrets

Weasel (500 creds) - gonna love me - ship propelled 1 hit bomb.

Lancaster (500 creds) - dont know at all 2000 energy?

Shark (500 creds) - EMP Yellow bombs Rapidfire hehe.

 

If a player buys elite it should announce it to pub -

Zakalwe! is now Elite in Blight Aerospace Nu-34 Terrier etc

 

Now wait a second these arent permanent - if you die you lose them. Dont forget that - surely a terrier with 4 purple bomb levis on it is worth a screenshot though?

 

Map - i dont think this map works. I think bases need some more space, so people dont just feel tunnels with bombs. I dont care NS/EW i just want fun bases.

 

Other Ideas -

 

Shark - I think brick time should be reduced, brickwarping can be done, but a couple of sharks can stop a team attacking too easily.

I think shark should get its old thor back - weasel doesnt thor anymore.

 

Major Idea here - make 17th 3 teams. I know historically this is rubbish, but who cares about history. I care about gameplay. I think 3 teams, would open up a whole new dimension to 17th.

 

Also if we get 17th fun again, we have to start asking people to come and see it in its new light.

 

To comment on this please use a simple system, so its easy to understand. Eg

 

(Current Shipset) - like but (comment)

(Map) - dont like think (comment)

(Veteran/Eite) like this ( but i think)

(Idea for shark) not keen at all/like etc.

 

But please keep it constructive. I stayed up a night thinking about these things. So dont let my sleepless nights go to waste lol. TY for reading. smile.gif - Zaka

Spider needs the emp, it should be the weasel before Vile touched it, with the fast bullets and the nice bomb.. none of the ships have the emp on them... weasel mine gets annoying when people rocket at you and take a bomb but still plant their one hit ko mines.

 

My suggestion for Weasel;

L2 Bullets

L1 Emp Bomb

L1 Two Normal Mines

Items:

Decoy, Portal, Rocket.

Cool idea's dude...

 

The problem with the gaining prizes things are that it isn't 17th... people wont like it, they'll just say crap like " well if i wanted it like this I'd just goto Chaos zone blah blah"

 

Two, 3 freqs wouldnt work becuase there are two goals, what would the third team do?

 

There all good idea's, but not sticking to the theme of 17th.... You do have a good idea for your own zone though, you might wanna try it, I'd help you make a map if you want...

 

Pece,
