Publics

[Izor]

Ok, of all the people posting in this thread, I see very few (as usual) that actually play publics. The small weasel was without a doubt absolutely retarded. The purpose of the ship is to use cloak and stealth to kill ships undetected, like levis. Lancs that have x-radar for some reason now kill this, so I would propose taking x away from lancs, then only terrs and javs could effectively hunt them, instead of a fighting ship. People used the small weasel simply to either attach to a terr and never die (cumulonimbus) or to fly around full speed and take a level 3 shot at light speed. And you couldnt hit the fuckin thing.

I personally dont like the fact that terrs can have 10+ people on them. Where are the days that levterring actually took skill? Why do random lanc/spid terrs just fly around with twars-like turrets? All of those take away from any basing experience that may be going on as well. Thors...whoever came up with that idea needs to get shot. as if basing wasnt hard enough with levis. Prox? Even worse. With the number of levis I see in pubs I might even be able to say a no levi pub, but killing them is just so much fun!

Turn it back to how it was a couple of months ago with roboboy small weasels a jav restriction and no levs. You could actually enjoy basing back then.

I agree. Small weasels were more fun, as was no levs, and jav restrictions.

don't listen to this guy, not everyone wants to base in pub

there's a green dropped for every death. assuming that that person was killed by a nearby perpetrator, then that green will more than likely be picked up. now considering there are at least 30 people in a full pub arena, then for everyone one of those people dying, there's a 1% chance that someone's going to pick up a thor'd green. multiply that by the number of people in the arena will give you a 30% chance that a thor will be picked up by anyone at any given moment. then you multiply that by the infinite number of deaths possible for leaving a green in any pub and you got the percentage for chaos, baby. mmm. smells like barbeque.

i slept through statistics, forgive me if i'm having a little trouble seeing how 30 people with a 1% chance equals a 30% chance overall.

i might be missing the leap here, but going with that logic if there was a 50% chance, than with just two people playing you'd have 100% occurance, and i'm pretty sure that's not right.

Even if you are right, and 1% over 30 ppl is 30%, then you could simple make it .001% or w/e you needed to make it to ensure that it didnt' happen as often as you think.

And quite simply, you could set the terrier's settings so that it can't green thors, just like it can't green repels. Same for levi if you felt the need.

we can work around barriers, let's not just give up at the first one.

I'd say sharks would be Combat Engineers or Sappers.

take it back to the days when each ship had a defined position like sniper(WB), granadier(Jav), infantry(spid), tank(lev), carrier(terr), spy(weasel), shotgunner(lanc), and i have no idea what the shark was... but the point is that that worked and if we're going for a change in pub, maybe update the position names and apply ship changes accordingly.

just a thought.

leave the basing pub alone, and give the other pub the goodies.

[kthx]

I wouldn't care about greened decoys if they were extremely rare, otherwise it would turn into Waldo Pub. But I wouldn't want to give out anything that isn't a part of most normal arenas in TW.

how do you figure?

everyone has a 1% chance of getting thors in that scenario. There isn't always going to be a thor, or 100 greens. That's how i take it anyway, kinda like the "100 year flood line" where it means there's a 1% chance if it flooding that far, instead of a once in a hundred years it floods there.

na u are over estimating how easy it will be to get thors, lets not forget both terrs and levs get greens when their freqs do, last thing id want it to get thord in a random green base battle.

Plus correct me if im wrong u cant just have this in 1 pub it has to be in all

[DankNuggets]

so in a full pub arena, there will be a 1/3 chance that flag room's going to get thor'd at any given moment alongside the levi bombing. right?

change weasel back.. its only used for spawning levs atm
make 1/100 greens a thor
make 1/30 greens a decoy


Change the weasel back and i like the 1/100 greens a thor, 1/30 greens a decoy and ill even go further to say make 1/100 greens a Prox.
