Discovery 4.82 Beta features, bugs & suggestions - Virus - 11-29-2006

Winkie,Nov 28 2006, 08:51 PM Wrote:Here is a couple of suggestions, First just for some verity! The game could use some more voices. The same ones time after time are getting old and I think there is only one chick voice in there. (I suggested this once to Angel once but got no response) Lots of us have mics on our puters and Im sure we could get several volunteers to pump out some recordings to add in the game Would be a real kick to hear your own voice say Drop the cargo or else. And a lot of bases have no voice to greet you.. Im sure one or more of us knows how to do a UTF file. Just need a script to follow.
Secondly, and I know I could be shot for this one. If there is a need to get some cash for upgrading servers and whatnot, Why not contact some corporate sponsors?  For a specified amount we could add Coca Cola or Pringles to the commodities list and haul it around the universe. After all there is always room for Jell-O. Im sure none of us freighters would have a problem with increased amounts of stuff to trade.

First one: I would s**t myself if I heard myself demand cargo from myself with myself knowing that I'm going to do that to myself... o.O

Second one: We could just paint a "Coca Cola" sign on the side of the RH BS, Large Train, and C. Trans for s**ts and giggles. :)

And Winkie, if you actually said to Angel. "There are not enough chick voices in here."
No big surprise you didn't garner a response, positive or not.
Bit to learn about how you speak to people ... :laugh:

I mentioned this in the 4.81 bugs thread, but it appears to still be present in the current beta.

At least one of the added wrecks still drops a civilian ID. The wreck I know of that drops one is the Cosades wreck. It's in one of the original systems that you normally can't get to outside of the single player campaign.

As for the voices, they are further subdivided into Pirate (includes Order and Zoners as well), Police/Military, and Civilian groups. Some of the groups seem to have some overlap on the female side as well.

I do not know what to write about them. If anyone could help on that... but of course I agree that they need changing.

America, Amerigo... well, not going to change that, cause America base is somewhat special. Hacker place. Dock there, see its class. Besides, bases usually get the names of places, not people. And even people... ony surnames are used in FL.

Yeah, you've got a point about the names... So, yeah, America is fine, really.

As for the Homeworld ships, well, I don't know, exactly. I was thinking maybe something like "This ship was made by (such-and-such group), originally as a (such-and-such) ship." Something like what is said for the Raven Claw. That infocard gives some good background on the ship.

Six Female, Nine Male. They aren't distributed between Pirates, Military, and Civilian. Its just alot of the Pirate and Military pilots have a rougher voice. Much deeper, than that of civilians. But they are only classified as RVP###(M/F) M for male, F for female. The number is the difference between the voices. There are overlaps on males and females for all factions, and pirate/military/civilian.

@Zukeenee Exactly! Kinda of like what you did with the Hugenot. It says all about how it was made by the outcasts and rouges but its acctually a homeworld ship.

And Igiss if you fix the BR and Infernos, fix the energy requirements for the Gunboat forward guns. They take you way too much


Discovery 4.82 Beta features, bugs & suggestions - BestFlyerHere - 11-29-2006

Although some things, such as infernos and BRs have weakened, I'm glad to hear that they will be nearly the same in new beta. I dunno if this is also a bug, but the lib cruiser forward gun is a lot stronger now, twice as strong as 2 cruiser infernos. I know, I tested it.


Discovery 4.82 Beta features, bugs & suggestions - Qunitinius~Verginix - 11-29-2006

What? twice as strong as TWO cruiser infernos? That really doesn't seam right if you ask me......

That should be changed....


Discovery 4.82 Beta features, bugs & suggestions - Dab - 11-29-2006

Its meant to be a cap killer. And is very proficient at it.. But perhaps the power of 1.5 infernos instead? And 1.5 times the BR damage?


Discovery 4.82 Beta features, bugs & suggestions - BestFlyerHere - 11-29-2006

Well, i just tested it. It is twice as powerful as the weakened infernos. It is the same as 2 regular cruiser infernos before the betas.
