I'm with you anyway, with a year "subscription" for the start. But jeez, don't you have enough work already with the game itself?

They like to get themselves some extra. Look at the recent balancing patches, jeeziz. They still fail to admit how much of a failure it was, despite the empirical evidence AND their whole playerbase telling them how bad it actually is.

The jokes are lame.

S-demobs should work in a way that they demob more the closer you are to the target. In other words, if you demob from max range, you demob for a small amount; if you demob point-blank, you demob for full amount. It would be a fun and skill-based mechanic for both tacklers and people getting demobbed, but we all know that it will never be implemented due to reasons.

Also, to touch the issue of tunings a bit as well, one solution for the stacking problem (without trying to rewrite the whole system) would be to make them increase the accumulator usage of whatever module they are boosting. Since it would work in the same way like the boosts are applied, the negative effect would be more noticeable with more tunings.

I don't understand Zoom's half-assed attitude in attempts to solve this problem. Help your players, goddamn.

There will be no refund. Say your thanks to Dev Zoom.

Nerfing things directly is the worst possible and unimaginative way of balancing, and should be approached only when absolutely necessary.

Ever wondered why dota, over the course of patches in the last 9-10 years had 75% buffs and only 25% nerfs?

Something to think about, Zoom. Although you are just an artist.

Perma BKB = win.

Potential for someone's thesis right there...

Well, think about it, what do you do when you have
a) no income from new game purchases,
b) veterans who are comfortable sitting at 44k/month,
c) no other good services to introduce for sale because reasons

then ask yourself, how do you make money?

Mass-respecs!

I endorse your artistic skills, Ville.

I have a better and easier suggestion for the devs.

Hide hitpoints as well (shown only when in squad). Show only the damage done in combat log.

GG.

It doesn't anything have to do with the changes. We can utilize the new changes to the advantage and come up with the new stuff. We have enough resources for that. Although some of the changes are quite ridiculous, considering that some things have piled up together since the previous patches.

In reality, what it has to do with, is your childish attitude towards your own game. You take anything offensively, without applying your own pre-thinking on the matter. You do, then you fix. It repeats over and over and over and over for 4 years now. There has been a lot written about it, and I can write a lot about it too, but it doesn't seem like you are ever in the mood to listen to anyone except yourself, resorting to fixing your own mistakes afterwards. This needs to stop. Like right now. Don't be surprised that players don't wanna put stuff together for you if it is mostly ignored, no matter how SENSIBLE it is. You simply can't post *** like that on the forums to your own playerbase, Zoom.

And don't forget to thank Ville for scrapping some calculations together in the first post, doing YOUR own work.

Ok, let me add something to the above:

Even if there are balancing issues, panicking and posting "the sky is falling, everything is obsolete, glbrflbrl" topics won't help a bit, because you can't put a sensible response to those and they will just get simply ignored.

If there are balancing issues, we will try to fix them. But this attitude of "we know better and you don't know sh*t" has to stop, we can't work like that, and you won't have it better either. Thanks.

You, as a developer, need to make correct calls and not just butcher the WHOLE game without asking anyone who understands a thing or two about balance and pvp. Then you are expecting players to react normally to that afterwards. Then you ask them to be "sensible" at the expense of their own time, balancing the game for you and making the suggestions, while you don't even consider 98% of what is written to you. I'm sorry sir, aren't your expectations a bit too high?

Besides, no one will post ON THE FORUMS a sensible response like you expect, because it's all very much related to current meta-game. No one will reveal his tricks and calculations and fits, nobody here is stupid like that. And it doesn't look like you are trying to put any effort to reach out to players. So again, wtf you expect when you post something like that?

Maybe it's time to put some logic into the changes you make, Zoom? What do you think about that suggestion?

Zoom just wanted to show that he fulfills his promises. One way or another, at least.

Burial is talking about balance is like Jita saying something like "Can you stop being a *** and start refusing the points and not the people?"

Seriously though, after reading this and couple of neighbouring threads, the only impression I got is:

77CIR fits are like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oyA8odj … NpzBiRVcDw

STC and JOKE fits are like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LLOlGkipXyU

I don't see what big danger there would be for unreasonable dockign fees. I guess it could require a warning pop-up?


It would have to function as a setting for the terminal owner, with a wide range of prices....as well as an option to remain locked.


Being able to lock at -10 for example and allow access to -5 at steep price, neutrals at a price, maybe even charge +5 for docking?

Need to be able to set what you want to prices at different standings or if you want to lock it out to anyone not +10 or lock it out for even them just because.

This way is the best way.

On this note, why can't we gild comments?

ZOOM. COME ON.

It's not breaking people into any groups. It's a forum section for corporations who ARE actively into territory control. To discuss matters between themselves. Sort of like World Congress. There's nothing elitist about it.
