WaRCC Posted August 17, 2003 Report Posted August 17, 2003 thats what the forum was about... :!: GIVE THE JAV MORE SPEED!!!!!!!!!!! :!: Quote
Zeke Posted August 17, 2003 Report Posted August 17, 2003 I had the jav with more thrust and overall speed, but it didn't match the sub arenas, so Mike changed it to the slower speed settings. - Z Quote
Guest Posted August 17, 2003 Report Posted August 17, 2003 thats what the forum was about... :!: GIVE THE JAV MORE SPEED!!!!!!!!!!! :!: NO I HAVE A BETTER IDEA, GIVE IT SUPERRRRRR Quote
talion Posted August 17, 2003 Report Posted August 17, 2003 More thrust = more newbie friendly ship, because it's easier to dodge with. more speed w/ less thrust = difficult to use because you can't adjust your trajectory very quickly. so more speed =good only with more thrust too Quote
Guest Posted August 17, 2003 Report Posted August 17, 2003 You said it... more speed/thrust = newbie Quote
Tipme Posted August 17, 2003 Report Posted August 17, 2003 i know jav is fighter type ship but dont make it impossible to kill of course theres those unlucky times of line bombs,2 3 man turrets, me j/k j/k im not that good....or am i? Quote
Yupa Posted August 17, 2003 Report Posted August 17, 2003 More thrust = more newbie friendly ship, because it's easier to dodge with. more speed w/ less thrust = difficult to use because you can't adjust your trajectory very quickly. so more speed =good only with more thrust too newbies suck no matter what ship they're in...that's why they're called newbies either design ships for players that actually know what's going on or have no qualms about designing ships just to get population (ie - designing ships for newbies) Quote
Guest Posted August 17, 2003 Report Posted August 17, 2003 Yeah, what's the point in being a newbie if you can't learn http://www.hitemup.com/forum/images/smilies/wink.gif Quote
Tipme Posted August 17, 2003 Report Posted August 17, 2003 we could always make all ships the same ...now there will be no complaining except my ship looks better than urs Quote
madhaha Posted August 17, 2003 Report Posted August 17, 2003 I quite like the Robotech implementation of newbie ships... Quote
Yupa Posted August 17, 2003 Report Posted August 17, 2003 I quite like the Robotech implementation of newbie ships... ahrmmmm? Quote
madhaha Posted August 17, 2003 Report Posted August 17, 2003 SSI RDF>Robotech! to give its full name. Like DSB, it has two "races" with their own respective group of ships. Furthermore it uses a pointbased system (standard MERV plug) to restrict which ships you can fly. Newbie ships aren't very powerful but they are forgiving (low energy cost weapons and faster recharge), while vets get more complex ships (as in ones with cloak/stealth options, specials etc.) with greatly increased firepower and speed at the cost of charge rate and energy cost. It balances out. I don't think we should copy the model for 17th but it would be a good way to balance "newbie" ships against "vet" ships. Quote
Yupa Posted August 17, 2003 Report Posted August 17, 2003 yes I'm familiar with the zone, I was confused because the newbie ships do not have better recharge or low energy cost weapons... they are relatively balanced, though, but when you come upon a good player in the highest ranked ship it can be difficult Quote
Zeke Posted August 18, 2003 Report Posted August 18, 2003 I played it for a few weeks, it got too boring for me...I don't like the idea of building up as they do it, maybe more of an SVS related could do better. - Z Quote
Yupa Posted August 18, 2003 Report Posted August 18, 2003 doesn't take very long to get enough points to use all ships and like I said, the lower ships are fine against most people Quote
Zeke Posted August 18, 2003 Report Posted August 18, 2003 Yeah, but you get that higher ship when you respawn too, instead of doing some more work to keep yourself built up... - Z Quote
Tipme Posted August 18, 2003 Report Posted August 18, 2003 hey zeke thats from the dennis leary roast im not saying u should take it off or anything but that was funny Quote
Tempest Posted August 18, 2003 Report Posted August 18, 2003 I think Spiders should be given level 3 bullets and some sort of anti-anti-warp device. Quote
Dire Wolf Posted August 18, 2003 Report Posted August 18, 2003 I suggest making it so no ship has thrust or speed... thusly killing any ability for a newb to do anything... conversly, it also prevents anyone from doing anything else... which would cause total peace and Osabrah-NeverBeenLaid-Ehn would be mad! Btw... Lancasters are cool... they fire bombs and bullets when you press CTRL or TAB keys! (unless you re-routed the auxilary power to other keys, mofo) Quote
