Topic: Weigh in: New server features. Post your thoughts.

[Dizzy]

Well, I just gave u a plus karma, Corbo, cuz ur post was funny.

It's also unfortunate that some players will pretty much a boycott a dyna if they don't get exactly what they want. I've seen players from all races take part in this practice.  I can understand if the server is too unstable, but over minor shiplist issues?  That's might be a little over-zealous.

But then there is the issue of arguments and friction between the playerbase, i would rather see someone who doesnt perhaps agree with the rules or the server setup choose to sit out a dyna rather than feel they have to fly and end up getting frustrated and vent their issues. We have seen frustration vented in the past and has had a detrimental effect on a campaign, people of course have the right to not fly a server and i prefer that over the bickering.

If you want to build the community and make it stronger then that has to stop.  Not all dynas are gonna be perfect. Just suck it up and play. At least, you have a good big-time dyna to play on.

Ideally it will have to stop, but the whole dyna community is mixed, you are never going to please everyone for example one of the most current issues is the drive towards more pvp based servers, but people have to take into account there are players who not only play for the pvp aspect. The simple fact is you can't please everyone.

We take ourselves altogether too seriously... this is supposed to be about fun and relaxation, though as I can understand getting one's "tits in a wringer" about this stuff sometimes as I've been there. We need to take pretty much everything said here with a grain of salt. I always do my best to have some fun on a server whatever state of "balance" it is in. Where's Maverick at these days anyway... Hexx has been whippin boy long enough...  Its Mavvy's turn again...

NO!!  Eve sucks, I tried it and did not like it.

I didn't say I was taking a break from playing, just taking a break from Dev work.

  God bless him, he's such a good sport about it. 


P.S. Any more thoughts on "Terraforming" or my favorite "Scorched Earth" anyone?

Some Colonization missions would be cool, something where you have to protect colonist as they are landing to setup the Colony.



What also would be cool would be missions where you can place PDUs and other fortifications.   f some way could be found to determin the number of PDUs in a planet hex and then trigger missions with escelating diffuculties . . . .

Ditch the battleships.

And include the I-CCX in that category.

You know, with all the grief that the ISC gets, and the way this community operates in general, I'm surprised that I'm not in charge of over half of you.

With all the frequent calls to nerf / ruin / remove / screw with all the ISC ships, you'd think that they were 100% instant win vehicles...

Then, with the fact that many people here only play to win (not play to have fun, see how many people tend to desert losing efforts), I'm shocked that these people don't fly the "100% instant-win ISC" race...

You can't be serious.

Don't waste your breath Julin. Most people only like cheese on one side of their cracker.

Yeah, sorry that our cheese was too bitter for you to swallow Corb.

Welcome to the Techie retirement club.  I felt like this a year ago.

They are in the hands of GOOD pilots  

(Unless 40 billion Hornets are on the board . . .)

Yep, we had some really good ISC pilots on AOTK2. The Lyran and Kzin players were great too.

To put matters in perspective, the disengagement rule thingie that mostly affected ISC ships was a pretty trivial matter.  Certainly nothing that warrants any ISC player boycotting the server. So, why are you listening to players that did not play on AOTK2?

We frog players had a great time on AOTK2 and it was a fun dyna.  U did a good job, and I am sure that every ISC player on AOTK2 mucho appreciates your hard work.

But, we are still your OVERLORDS.

PS. As ISC ARM for AoTK2, if you need me to re-iterate the frog player appreciation for your AoTK2 Admin. work to anyone, anywhere; then, you just let me know, and I'll take care of it.

I'd comment, but that makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.

Dash a preeettyyy good ideaaaarree ya got dere . . .

Dragging it (sorta) back on topic

Why not have the penalty box apply to any & all VC ships? You lose one you can't fly another for 12 hrs.

I'd just hate to have certain pilots (who shall remain nameless) smash a BB,then a CVA,Then a DN,Then a BCV into planets over a 12hr period.

Well you seemed to be making a backhanded comment about the PBR finals, but if I'm wrong then I'll take it back.
