    Hotswap, GLspecialist, new classes and other nerfed FE:L content: Your opinions

    Because outrider isn't underpowered and the best chasers and cappers in the game consistently use it. Some things aren't going to be used well in pubs if only because the general skill level is near-zero.

    Hotswap, GLspecialist, new classes and other nerfed FE:L content: Your opinions

    Nerfed or removed content is staying that way. All the changes you listed were done by DeadGuy and I (I wrote the hotswap, new sniper, impact damage, DG did the rest...) and neither of us think we made any bad decisions. The last build of the game was easily the most balanced, and we have no...

    laser rifle

    So was I, read my post. I'm not particularly fond of modifying damage over distance, but it was thoroughly tested in both configurations. I already detailed in my previous posts why it is not a charge to fire (it was determined to be too weak during testing). Restating a point I've already...

    laser rifle

    The sniper rifle does have and always has had no radius, you have to pass through the ray from your muzzle point to the spot at the center of your screen to get hit by it. It has a maximum damage of 40 (at full energy) and a minimum of 10 (at zero energy). The beam has an optimal range of 500...

    Is this happening

    Raindance, like most tribes maps, would never work without some sort of limitation on overdrive. A lot of maps would just not work because a player can go straight up the front, OD, and be back at base without even thinking about a route.

    Is this happening

    All of those map would need a fair amount of work before they're acceptable for playing. You can keep your eyes open for new content, but I wouldn't get your hopes up about those maps (they didn't really work).

    Player Model Sizes

    The problem is the sheer distances and speeds involved. Katabatic, flag to flag, is about the distance from the flag on Zenith to that first ammo tower on the other side of the front bowl. Seriously.

    It would be cool if we could mod our gear for others to see....

    Allowing for people to see each others skin modifications is a non-trivial technical challenge. How is the downloading system implemented? Does the client have to wait to upload their skin to the server? How do clients get each others skins? Are they sent from the client machine or the server...

    Player health recharge

    Health packs and kit drops are going to be tested. Health packs would replace health regeneration. Legions will probably require some arcade-y solutions (like all drops have a health kit in them) to keep it smooth, but that will be determined in testing.

    Could we FINALLY get the dang Votekick already?

    I was asking people to not make duplicate threads about an issue I addressed elsewhere. Of course we are aware of the problems of the game. Many of them would have been fixed had we been able to update the game on IA more often. Pubs will probably not allow you to imbalance the teams by more...

    A Few Things I'd like To Know

    @Bots: No. @Customization: We're not talking about what options we're going to allow for right now, but I do believe that user customization is important and locking players out just serves to alienate them with no real purpose.

    Could we FINALLY get the dang Votekick already?

    I've also thought about punish/forgive systems, automation is the fail though - not happening. We'll see when I write the administration facilities. Please stop making threads about this.

    New sodding flag model please?

    Oh so you didn't like my holoflag? Well fine screw you. The biggest (hurrr) issue is the fact that anything big enough to be seen from a distance is hyooge, but I'll bother some people about it.

    laser rifle

    If classes were removed it was because they were imbalanced. Pending a rebalance of the old weapons we are certainly not bringing back GLS.

    laser rifle

    When I did the current sniper rifle we went over many different versions to figure out what felt nice while not overpowering the gun. A mandatory charging mechanic like the existing sniper left the gun underpowered. A charge mechanism like that in Dystopia (where the damage varies over the...
