  • One-tiled ships

    Here's something to consider: what if other ships besides the weasel were made small? I mean, of all the ships, the weasel's probably the worst to have done that to because it can also cloak. Think of the possibilities if other ships were shrunk instead.

    Imagine if terrs were able to fit through those small holes. That would make a faster-paced, more intense game, and encourage more people to terr. Flag room battles would be more frequent. On the downside, flag room battles may become too frequent. Javs would also be more likely to toss bombs to try to kill the terr.

    What if the shark were shrunk? That would open up new repping and mining opportunities. They could fit into tighter spaces and create better repping angles. They might even play a larger, more active role in offense rather than the reactive defensive roles they play now. On the other hand, this might cause more people to shark. Maybe even too many. While it's hard to find people willing to play as one, it's a fine line before you get too many sharks, which can cause bigger problems.

    What about the other ships? They each have positives and negatives. I'm not suggesting that any of these should go through, but this is the kind of outside-the-box thinking that we don't do enough of.

      Grab a piece of paper. Place a dot in the middle of it. Draw a small circle around the dot, and leave the rest open. The dot represents your knowledge. It's what you know. It is the limit of your mind's capacity. The circle around the dot is everything that you don't know - but you know that it exists. And the rest of the paper is everything that you didn't even know that you'd never know - that exists or has the potential to exist.

                  Nice to see lots of "outside-the-box thinking" here <_<
                  I guess the only ideas worth talking about are changing things back to the way they were or adding more ship restrictions.

                    Mini levs with the same strength bombs, 3 repels and an attach bounty of 100.. Would be cool te keep escaping through the holes as a lev and some desperate wbs hunting you. Although this wouldn't last since people would get sick of it.

                      Instead of making them smaller get more entrances? Get one on the roof..

                          Shit happens when you know 9/10ths of the guys on your team in pub are going to be complete retards at the game, never will any radical ship design thoughts be brought forth until anyone can ever have confidence that the rest of the population can keep up with the change in gameplay that it would bring, and besides, I haven't given a fuck to play pub since the last instagib burst death that was one too many and forced me to axe the shit along with 8v8 basing previously to axing pubs from my playing time.

                          Long story short, it is too late to save the base settings of the zone, play more strikeball instead.

                              Maybe for a host or something i dont care, for all tw arenas and setting, small ships would be at best, the worst idea ever. Take base, the terr cud pilot 2 sharks on it and fly right through a crack into base, and flag. Killing all cram/lining etc.
