it pause again instantly?

[MUPP3T]

yep

[Morlock]

yeah its paused again...have 3 bases gone?

[Clementus]

Yeah straight away. And yes all three bases went down finally!

[Clementus]

Anychance of a small "Title" to show who has killed a planet in the game. Would be quite nice to have a logo or title next to someone to show what they achieved. Either a little broken planet logo or just World Destroyer!

[Morlock]

i like that idea Have something like a V?

[ecvej]

Could be all sort of achievements / medals we could put in:

"Cruiser killer"
"Carrier killer"

Might make some for the next beta

What about a bounty system for Rogues? Maybe a separate page that shows Highly undesirable Rogues in the game based on how long they've lived, their level, and kills. The longer the Rogue has stayed alive and the more kills they've gotten while Rogue (Which increases level), the more points they are worth for being killed.

You could have a wanted poster with their last known whereabouts, or where they last attacked someone.

It'd make being Rogue more exciting for me.

Not so sure about extra points for killing rogues but you could have a title again. Bounty Hunter or something similar and maybe a "rankings" screen for Rogues which was Most Wanted could work.. I'd quite like it if rogues could "pay" in points to change their ship as well. Maybe 4,000 x rank so would mean that reppers who were fed up could also do it or bombers change etc. Could be funky.. rogues using a "smugglers" base to barter for a new ship.

I'd just like to go on record as not being a fan of the full sight LC scans. I'm not sure if it was Frantic specific or a work in progress as I haven't had a chance to read much of the boards but just wanted to throw my 2cents out there. I missed most of the Beta too so my experience is limited to the Frantic we just finished.
