Have the restart commands under the help. When I type in /restart I need to see what ones are available. I don't want to have to come back to the forums to find out, since that screws up the game. (I've since taken to printing out the first post, but some people don't have printers.)

Have the basic restart loadouts as a general good loadout. However allow people to change as they see fit. Allow changes and restarts on the one char. Having to start a new char is a bit silly, and is annoying RE : POINT 1(Maps). Unless you have a good reason, then please tell us what that is.

First point - they are. You use the command /showrestarts, which is available under the help menu, and has been all along.

Second point is that's not the purpse here. I've said all along (even on the last event) that in these battles, you're not representing someone special. You're actually representing the hordes of npc's that we see on the main server day after day. They have specific loadouts that they're stuck with - so for these few hours, you get limited choices.

Right now I think Josh has 23 GB of footage, Wolf has a bunch, too - they're in a skype group setting things up now.

Oh god... The end of days... Agmen agreed with me.

So which one was it that came up with giving 650 ms Debs and 750 ms Buckshot load-out on a Manta?

I mean the red-cross automation aim really messes up with a 100ms difference.

You had ten people for this and they couldn't get that right?:lol:

Whatever, I gave it a last shot. I go play on the normal server now. xD

[Grumblesaur]

Guys, stop moaning about the loadouts. They work fine. And if they don't, swap the guns out. Sell that Cap VIII for a cap VI or something and use the leftover credits to re-work your loadout.

Not 10 people were setting up all ships, some were for Order stuff, some were for BHG, and some for Nomads, Will, you want uber dessie to count bombers kills on it? 30, 40? You can't have it, one people whine about caps not doing their role, other whine how it can't kill any cap, guess what, BHG dessie isn't made to solo anything, it never was, they work in packs, 5,6 dessies with 1 pulse can bust BS shield very fast, but no, I want to solo everyone, get 9000 kill messages. Debs with buckshots? What is your suggestion, put codes on it, it was Mjolnir who said full buckshots without debs won't be able to bust shields, shield busters were mounted, it's not suiting again? Ohh, wait Mjonlir suggested it, he should know, shouldn't he, mehh, all around whinners
Q_Q here it goes then, since it's so popular.

You seem to be incapable of reading. I stated that they had made a big error on speed difference, I did not say a word about having full Buckshot load-out or complaining about the ability to remove enemy shields.

If they had 10 people checking on this, and even people double-checking things, so many little problems wouldn't exist everywhere.

Yes I'm fully aware that 650 ms Debs combined with 750 ms Buckshots is a small problem. But when added to ten-thousand other load-out problems as well as event-related mechanisms not being present, then it becomes a larger problem.

Before you rage-post again, read carefully what I have written here, at least two times.

By the way, I didn't mention one single instance of the desire to kill everyone and claim millions of blue-messages. But being able to hit the enemy is pretty relevant don't you think when it's an event that basically is about mindless killing?

Seems to be a habit around here to null every valid complaint down to Q_Q when you fail to realize the point. I understand we are here to have fun and all that jazz, but many aspects of this event can/could be improved if people stop acting like ignorant little babies. However, whenever that changes will be a damn miracle if you ask me. So keep on having "fun" as you get ganked by one-hundred Osiris Vessels. I go do something more productive now.

I had some great fightmoments and some fun in the battle so far.
I really liked flying my Osiris in such battle, though I'd have loved to have the same loadout I have on the "real" Server.
But no problem there, it's ok.

Besides some things which already were addressed, there is one thing, I find could've been changed:
"Why give every ship Armor Upgrades?"
I ask myself, would it be better, if no ship had any armor upgrades?
But ... I know, I know, if you don't give the ships armor upgrades the players would buy them on their bases.
Just a little suggestion.

Mh...

[Dusty Lens]

Syrus, no armor upgrades at all is possible the most interesting idea to come out of this thread.

And you should read too, not all my statements were refering to your post, you whined debs don't go with buckshots, or I missed your point? It was different before, main balance dude gave that suggestion, so...
Also, not 10 people were checking everything, you again don't read what I wrote, I did not check BHG or Nomad stuff, only Order.
About getting many kill messages, I was refering to Will, where he Q_Q how you can't instakill bomber with 1 razor on thresher. And hoiw one pulse can't bust gunboat shields etc. That was all Q_Q how you can't kill anything on your own in BHG caps, so I made my point it shouldn't even be like that. But mehh.

If there is no armor upgrades on caps, they would die much faster, much bigger respawn, and what would you achieve with it?

[Fletcher]

Would speed things a long somewhat no? And get the pure cap-spamm-ers out a lot more quickly yes?

EDIT: Boredom can be a wonderful thing.
