how many max tuner fits have you seen in pvp in the last years. i have to admit i havent seen any.
most pvp with heavy mechs (the only ones that have enough high slots that it would matter) are fielded with medium to long range fittings. most of the time i see sniper fits that go even more in the opposite direction. scarificing most high and even some low slots to get that high range of ~900-1000m.

and even if some ppl would use some extreme short range high dps fits successfull on the battlefield, then i would say, hell yea, finaly something different.

and that leaves primary pve for high dmg fittings. and i thinkt that totally ok there.

your question about pvp flag and teleporting:

• you can now use any stationary TP when pvp flaged. so pvp can be drag over to alpha.

• you can not use any mobile tp while pvp flaged, so no more jumping away when engaged.

• when you jump through a TP while flaged your instability is greatly increased. so jumping back might be a bad idea (TP games).

also

• using a external TP your syndicate protection will be the same as your instability. (if not flaged)

• using an interior TP you will have reduced syndicate protection. so it will be shorter then on a external.

welcome to perp. its very refreshing to see a good influx of new players ingame. even more so if they enjoy the game. so this game will finaly grow to a size that it deserves.

the perp community is very small and yes a lot ppl are glad to help the fresh blood in the game.

@our enemies:
of cource you could not leave your usual propaganda bull*** out of things like this?

clients that are bought on steam can only launched from there (s war as i think that the devs said that).

clinets that are bought from the perp site can be launched with both if you link the bought game to a steam account.

and yes steam only allows one client and only one game running at a time. thats a steam problem and i think the devs cant do anything about it.
i am not sure if can can do anything about that you can use a steam baught account and get another login for the standart client. atm its the way that it logs in with your steam id and that only works with the steam client that you can only start via steam. so you are back at the first problem.

the perp site accepts paypal, credit card and moneybookers. normaly these are general accepted payment methods a person can access. or what payment method would you need?

well i think its clear by now that this is all because of my support ticket. sadly enought that the devs do not keep things like this confidential, but thats another story.

i think that nobody realy cares about some smacktalk, but there is a clear line between smacktalk and personal insults.
its a difference if you say things like: "run you cowards" when somebody walks from the battlefield.
but its a different thing when use things like (quote): "why dont you suck a *** zortard". this is personal. even in two ways in this case.

talking about "adults" and "trolling":
you might have noticed that its only one "faction" that is primary trolling around. and for all that corporation and alliance propaganda/drama nobody cares and we usually ignore that anyway.

trolling in factual discussions (like for example about game mechanics) or even bringing that propaganda bullshit to these discussion sections is a no go for every adult mindset. if you cant seperate that then you surely dont have a adult mindset.
just as using insults in these kinds of discussions just because you want to strengthen your position or try to let the people with another opinions look bad. that is not adult behaviour like you claimed above that you posess it. and there are plenty of that samples in this forum.
guess why less and less ppl use that forum for suggestions and other usefull talk that would help this game.

the last example is the "show" you and your friends did to this topic in Skymarshal Brandon's livestream in the twitch chat. that shows exacly your "adult" mindet that you talked about in your post. just like your spam afterwards in various public channels. i would say: the behaviour of a 12 or 15 year old at max.

i dont care about a bit smacktalk, but getting insulted in a personal way by the same ppl over and over again has its limits. so thats when that ticked happend.

tux check the wiki there are all files. there you can check the size.

i can tell you that .png is the format and it has a alpha channel for transparency (obviously).
i have played around with it a little for my guide.

nein

i agree. i liked the smaller icons better as well. you get better overview and see more on one screen.

besides that very good work. kkep it up.

i dont think we need to nerf tuners.

it can only be used in great numbers in pve. in pvp i havent seen much bot with pure tuner fittings yet. most likely because they lack range and are too vunrable in other terms. (and i havent seen a lot SR fleets in the past)
and i think for pve its ok to power up a bot a bit...

if you give the tuner a dimishing return buff then they will become useless after two or three mods. this will limit the fitting diverity. so im pretty much against it.

if you want to remove the exponential increasement and do for a linear aproach then the solution lies in the math:
the tuners are stacking exponential because they have multible stats (dmg, rof, and cirt). each of them add multipicatively. and if you boost 3 stats multiplicativly then you have a expnential increasement.
one solution might be to reduce the bonus only to one stat (for examle dmg), but of cource a bit more of it because you remove the other two. then you will get a linear increasement for every module you add (if you get your math right).

but personaly i dont think its nessessary to nerv tunings. i think powering up dmg is ok. your other options that you loose are:
range
sensor boosting (if you dont have rsa)
ewar resistance
rep bonus
...

on the other hand a few other modules could use a boost. like the armor repair tuning that was nerved to death multible times.
