Re: Please explain how this is possible

It's a new feature being tested. After death you spawn with points equal to one level below where you were at unless you were destroyed in your own HW. It's to try and keep the activity up since a lot of players will stop playing if they lose their higher level ships late in the game. This applies t...

Re: Triple Attack Pick Ups

It's a fantastic idea and one I'm still pushing for in game and out of game. I think the main reason it didn't get implemented at the time was due to the lack of free time and lack of help that the admins had at the time. This is something that we (hopefully) will see included among all the changes ...

Thanks ecvej. I'm looking forward to testing this one :D

Re: Self Destruct button

Fair enough. I'd rather see some of the others implemented first as well. Maybe put this one on the back burner for future discussion then :)

Re: Self Destruct button

*Bump* Think we could reinstate this feature for the next game ecvej? I've played a couple of betas now where it would have been incredibly handy. Make it so any of the council could activate it, but it would require most of the active players to approve otherwise it disables. (Maybe 75%?). Set it f...

Re: [DONE] Points for Scrap

I think as long as you were to limit the amount that NSA generates every tick to a minimal amount, say 200 or so, it should balance out pretty well. That would make it so any scrap runs from a HW to NSA would only gain roughly 1-2k points for a repper if they only did the run. Any combat ship could ...

Re: Focus On: Uncharted Sector

The only way that I can think of it working with an interactive map, is to incorporate a % chance that a pilot hypering would end up in the UCS instead of their intended destination. The only difference I see between this and the old version (from what I've been told of how the old way worked), is t...

I like this idea. And make it so you spawn as a level 1 and can choose your combat/piloting distribution. It would help keep activity going for those players that lose cruisers/carriers, and give incentive to the players that tend to get targeted a lot.

Re: Self rep VS pickups

That's kind a loaded question ecvej. Which one is faster would depend entirely on whether or not you get the hmr or not which is a probability factor. I personally feel self reps are a better way to go in the long run, (especially if you have active reppers at your disposal), but as Brooks said, the...
