This does not seem like a big thing, but when I kill someone and I know that the other players in the system are already seeking me out, waiting for my cloak to regenerate and trying to fly off the plane to avoid detection is harder than it sounds. It takes only one snub with a CD to pin the nomad ship down.
There is nowhere for me to run. No base I can hug. No base I can dock on. I cannot possibly kill a snub that does not want to get hit and all I can do is just sit there like a turkey until the bombers and BSs arrive.
That is my experience so far. It is cathartic as hell, yes, but I've only received 4 separate occasions of complaints in PMs ingame. It seems that the moment players get nuked by a nomad, they do not mind it as much as the vocal individuals in this thread make it seem to be.
Quote:*Increase the nomad cloak presence sound and use a warning sound similar to an Incoming Missile one, rather than the subtle hum we have now. Many players (myself included) listen to music while playing.
*Increase the sound radius to as far as it is possible. Since the game does not display sounds made by players that are not on your scanner range, it should just be maxed out. Players with different scanners will then detect from different ranges accordingly.
*Implement energy drain during cloaked mode so that uncloaking and instantly opening fire is physically impossible on caps.
Quote:And in the end, if the admin team thinks that this is harming the server gameplay, they can step in at any time and just set their own rules on the faction regardless of what its members or leader may think. It has been done in the past, it can be done now.
Quote:I find this new gameplay fun. I find it cathartic. But I do not just want to go around looking for easy kills, as satisfying they are. I also want to see huge piles of people amass, grab pitchforks and come after the big bad nomad as to remove the threat. I want to see people start using cloak disruptors and use baiting strategies. And I am not necessarily opposed to them achieving their goals. K'Hara.Zalktis will die. A lot. That is the point.

[12/21/2015 2:09:43 AM] Sindroms [Spazzy]: No, legit, this is probably the only way to show people this is a retarded idea.

[12/21/2015 2:09:51 AM] Sindroms [Spazzy]: Imho nomads shouldn't even be playable.
[12/21/2015 2:10:10 AM] Sindroms [Spazzy]: Because
[12/21/2015 2:10:12 AM] Sindroms [Spazzy]: ironically
[12/21/2015 2:10:19 AM] Sindroms [Spazzy]: I better like them engaging silently and not talking at all
[12/21/2015 2:10:31 AM] Sindroms [Spazzy]: Rather than the retarded ... * autism
[12/21/2015 2:10:40 AM] Justin Hopkins: Yeah that would be fine
[12/21/2015 2:10:43 AM] Justin Hopkins: If they didn't have cloaks.
[12/21/2015 2:10:47 AM] Justin Hopkins: But they do so that makes it lame.
[12/21/2015 2:10:59 AM] Sindroms [Spazzy]: Legit my thoughts exactly
[12/21/2015 2:11:06 AM] Sindroms [Spazzy]: If you want to engage on sight and without saying anything
[12/21/2015 2:11:07 AM] Sindroms [Spazzy]: No cloak

This Galaxy is vast; its wonders and beauty are almost unfathomable. But the galaxy also hides dark secrets, some of which have lain dormant since the beginning of time itself. There is a danger in secrets, both in seeking and in knowing. Some things are meant to be hidden from view. Some mysteries defy understanding, and sometimes even the things we think we know are untrue. Some secrets should remain untouched.

Nah, apparently the guy flying the duk in the picture was on drugs.
Or something.

I dont know if you are serious. The most logical thing would be to think you are not.
