Title: some questions I cant find answer anywhere
Post by: Andrewhedge on June 03, 2016, 11:55:23 PM
1. Blueprints - are they 1 time use? so if I wanted to craft DE.50 than I must try until it comes out?

2. I played before and assignment is gone somewhere. Its gone?

3. May i change the faction where I belong to? of course am ready to take risk.

4. anything should I know about? AoP changed much from last season

1. You cant craft ammo, blueprints (all relics) in general have changed their function from trading them to npcs to unlock new recipes to using them with handicon from inventory to let the "new" fixboy menu pop up and let you craft some random weapon > random weapon crafting.They serve aswell nowadays as Misc trading item for the traders at faction hqs at courtyards whom got, for whatever reason, a shit ton of caps nowadays.

2. Its gone and will never come back, even tho some caravan script for something similar in core is lying on the server repo for decades.

3. You can change the faction whenever u want, its only annyoing if you got many stuff due to potential bugs with hoarder not working on all faction maps maybe.

4. Whole game went to shit, complete new META in every aspect mostly due to bad retouching of things, yeah thingys.

1st I dunno about Cirno, but I was playing with Porno few times...so setence they are not playing is a big lie.

2nd Everyone can fucked up or screw something, even our post-apo and RPG Gods like Black Isle/Interplay.

3rd Where is Porno blaming a players? Cause I can not see such a shit here.

he says that players don't play but give advice, probably, it isn't difficult to guess for what reason many players have ceased to play ?

Well, game is fine but it just have very different gameplay than other fonline servers and now due to a pretty meaningful troubles at the start of the session playerbase is pretty small, but enough to have at least few hours of pvp each day.

Its gotta be "fixed"  in terms of player count and economy only in the next season I think.

Also there are some frustrated players who loved game alot and now quite disappointed who will say "game is so sheeeit" each time you will say AoP just because they have different vision of what should be.

Well, I'm not blaming people about leaving or not playing.
Anyway he's somehow right...it's hard to give advice while not playing a game.

matt u need to get the pole out of your butt, what kinda joke is this ... john porno does play ?

when someone is spawning his stuff he needs for zc then its not playing the game for me.
he probably participate in pvp but he doesnt play the game... neither any of the other so called "devs".

there are big differences in playing the game and participating, i explained it quite simple above i guess but i can go deeper...
Title: Re: some questions I cant find answer anywhere
Post by: Mad Matt on June 04, 2016, 06:08:04 PM
Okay, easy man. I just saw him few times in PvP and I tought he's really taking part in game. If thats true, what did you say...than it sucks.
Everyone can make mistake, no need to ask me for sticking things in my butt or taking them out from there :D

Well to be fair, i think everyone is to blame generally speaking: Dev's let some bugs in and stuff that broke economy/game balance; but it's players that took advantage of it all. It's also mostly the player attitude of swarming that messed things up; At first everyone was joining hounds, it quickly got the biggest faction, after that people were joining hounds ''because they like to win''.....whenever a faction gets the biggest swarm the others join it because they feel safe with the numbers.

Some of the players remaining usually try their best to balance the teams, cause they know there will be no pvp 17vs4. If the whole server had the attitude of always doing that instead of increasing the swarm, things would be a whole lot more lively in the core.

As i said:Dev's let some bugs in and stuff that broke economy/game balance; but it's players that took advantage of it all.

Sneaks are included in all that.But for the very first days there was not that many sneaks, because you needed a faction to buy stealthboys, and everyone was busy leveling.We lost a lot of people during the first days, then we lost even more when Ninjitsu Masters became a thing.

People who try to 'balance' the server with their half-arsed faction hopping are the bane of the server.
We need serious measures in place to ensure balance.
Have population caps for the different factions, so if people want to play, they have to join another faction and not just pile on top the already winning swarm faction.
Don't make faction switching so easy - if you change faction, you must start from scratch - it is NOT hard to farm pixels.

Make pvp quick and readily available - instant action and no 30 minute wait times.

Wasn't it rerolls?.. :7

But to be serious, no amout of a great analysis and finger pointing will fix the problems server currenty facing, what's done is done. What server needs is help, not forum pvp. Unfortunately the latter is more popular.

Except for making a nuisance for players to play with friends and comrades this solves any of above mentioned problems how?
Nobody is stopping them from having alts, nobody is stopping them from teaming up factions in fights.
How would you propose to fix that?
Make items binded to a specific character like in WoW and make autoaim at everyone who's not in their faction?
Or even better, make ZC like arenas, avaliable to enter only if you have N amount of players?
How bout just let make people play only in turn based perhaps?
I understand that you want to help, but cmon, you can do better than this.

Faction A wins fights a few days in a row, Faction A increases in population size and continues to win via swarm. Some of Faction B rage quts. Some of faction A quits due to boredom, some forms Faction C. Faction B wins a few fights against the depleteled Faction A and the newly populated Faction C. Faction B increases in size due to victories and continues to win via swarm. Some of Faction A and C rage quit. Some of Faction B leaves to form Faction D.

Overall server population size drops continuously.

Fix the problem of first swarm, fix the server.

Save cheerleader, save world.

Well actually, you dont need to change factions......you just need chars in a few factions. If i see there is 21 online, i log in church and see we are 17....il go play in a diferent faction. It's really the only way to avoid swarming and to balance the teams to ensure everyone can play. I think everyone can agree that a 11vs10 is much more fun than a 17vs4.

Then have 2 factions and be done with it.
