Pub Proposal

[Lizzo]

Hell yeah I'ma warp away. I don't want to die and I have loose morals. At least I know I am bad Funnier when all these wbs think they so good then they clear mines by warping, or warp before dying too. No one complaining about that? For every time that I am in base and warp to not die, there is at least 1 "normy" ship that do the same. Good input, but maybe you need to look in the mirror
and yeah, people can ?go base, they can also ?go duel or something. What is your point. Pub doesn't have critical mass to support good base and good spawn duels.

Since some ain't understanding this, let me repeat cause maybe it will sink in eventually. While everything else you mentioned is annoying to vets, spawning is a special kind of cowardice. It used to be called negging in every other zone and was the ultimate low. The difference is this is physical negging (bring far away from team in a team game) vs bounty. As stated previously while spawn fights are fun, they are inherently anti community. They support no common goal for people to rally behind, and completely kill the base game cause they imbalance teams. There is also zero chance of anyone coming back to play the game or bring new players when they get spacewar'd or poke squad'd or SPAWNSTIC'd in spawn. Spawning is worse than afk on pub freq. Same people who complain about Lev being noob ship think siting in spawn killing "noobs" is pr0. People need to get real about their skills. Again, a real pr0 can kill all of the "annoying" ships in base. Takes a special type of special to think they are pr0 cause they can only do it in spawn. Takes an even more type of special "pr0" to stalk folks by getting on their freq, getting intentionally tk'd, or repping mines into them, or even physically threatening people irl. What type of pr0 are you again? Are you a real pr0 or some one who has problems killing people outside of spawn
Further, why you gotta call roofers Mexicans. Every country has roofs and not all Mexicans are roofers. And anyone can be dum enough to go on a roof, Mexican or not. You won't catch me on a roof, that's for damn sure. Maybe a roof top bar in Malaysia with a $$$'d benefactor but that's about it, even then, they better have an elevator straight to the top. None of this walk up to the patio bullshit

New map is great. As previously stated by myself if people wanted to base they would ?go base. Pub should be about creatively finding ways to make it fun. You can be a flag fag, you can goof around in spawn, you can be a Mexican roofer, a stealth little person, or just lob bombs from a Levi and the warp away when engaged like a coward bitch

[Lizzo]

this map will def lose a few players since it isn't conducive to base play at all. Spawners paradise, and then you gotta go through gauntlet of main tube. It won't kill the game, but it ain't gonna help.

Too lazy to back track previous comments. Things I would like changed with the current pub settings.

- Remove rockets from jav. It's literally only there for players to lame.

- Slow down the speed of sharks shrap. It's already a 1 hit kill. Slow that shit down!

- Remove shield as a buy item.

- Make the brick buy item a smaller brick.

- Give terrs 2 portals. They're an important part of a team, when there is no attachmode. With the new map setup, it would improve game play.

- Fix the openings on the flagroom, especially the roof. It's designed for players to lame from the roof without fear of being shot from within. (Only when the map is a certain size) Way too common these days for someone to jav line from the roof.

- Reopen the middle of the base. When there's no time left and you're coming from spawn; if you're a good terr, you used to be able to make a last push at fr. As long as you could make it through the entrance clean without bouncing off the wall. Now you have to go off to the side, wasting important time. Even going side/tunnels is harder to maneuver.

- Decrease price of festival or increase average games jackpot.

- Add a buy item to prevent private freqs.


Side topic:
Hire some new mods/event hosts! Figure out a trustworthy/active player who is there for the people.

If people want to play TWBD then they would go to the base arena. Let people have their fun and tell the elitist haters to plug it up with a tampon and grow the fuck up already

also get rid of roofturrets and make Thor’s cheaper thx

I know this is the prevailing opinion but I disagree.

What has keeping pub a safe space for fucking off gotten us in the past however many years? Fewer and fewer players. I think overall zone activity would improve if pub and TWD were somehow closer aligned. Specifically from a basing perspective, where it would obviously be most beneficial, having 'pick up' basing games would be great. It's what pub used to be.

Pub in its current state is a place for the same 12 people to be racist towards each other while a dozen other people intermittently pop in to play a game. Keep the bot !buys, keep the tk tax, keep the cost of shark mines (how is that even a thread?), ban the levi, standardize damage, add a toggleable !warp command that warps players into mid base on every spawn, bring TWEL to pub.

I like the idea of attachmode being automatically on if game is less than 5v5 or so but banning sharks/levis/jav rockets just seems like "just ban everything i do not like".

To me it seems like some of you want to sterilize pub to somewhat resemble a TWBD game or something. The problem is a lot of pub players could care less about the flag, there are several mini-games going on within pub for example retard wbs shooting each other in spawn. Who are you to dictate how the pub players should play the game?

Yes. That is exactly what it is. low IQ wbs sterilizing the diversity bc they aren't used to dying while using the skillset they have developed over 20 years. Basically trying to make the game more like pong

Lizzo the levi wants wbs and people in spawn out of the zone.
Sounds about right.

Roof is too easy currently to rec from, need closer spawn point for !deploy buy to shut that sht DOWN

p.s: I dont smoke, but when I do smoke, its good shit.

[Lizzo]

Hey all the changes to pub have been great. Really good work.

My two cents:

The !deploy spawn point is too far from roof.
Give basers a bigger advantage with a closer spawn point. Ideally directly to roof?

The bots from Hyperspace/EG could make for an interest !buy in TW.

What are you smoking and where can I get some?

But yeah spawn for All ships should be closer to base if you want more people to play. Map way way too big. Make separate zone for people who want to spawn or duel in wbs

Also give choice of ship for the roof bot

$50k weasel or terr
$300k wb lanc jav spid
$2m levi

more players? when I went to bed it was 2v2 completely dead.

Was like 12 v 12 after poke spawners decided to go to base.

[EvilX]

My thoughts on pub:

Allow players to donate toward game jackpots. It will make games more interesting and at times could generate huge games. I personally get bored and start spending my pubbux on random shit anyway. Why not make it more interesting?

Add buy item to prevent private freqs for 10 min. Kinda like purepub.

Take away rocket from Jav. It's long overdue. It's basically an item that's only purpose is abuse and "rocket lame".

Just a couple ideas.

If Javs recharge as fast as Warbirds, yeah. Lots of people in Lanc abuse the rush lag as well.

Another night, no purepub, more players than purepub weekend when poke alias spawners logged off. Thank god, I was getting tired of them get owned by double penetration WB.
