Suggestionzzzz

[TKillER]

Yeah i know theres not enough devs and motivation and all that,but heres some suggestions (and yes,someone prob suggested these before)


-Votesystem for dif maps (for example 3 or more options and voting between games) map for the next three or w/e rounds.One of the options could be random players made map and changed weekly etc.

-Votesystem for ships ? (levs ,weasels ,lancs ,new /old settings etc.)

-Make total gametime and roundtime more visible and round start too (sometimes dont notice the roundstart maybe its just me).When ppl see long game going they want to hop in.

-New round end stats ,something like in prodem and/or spaceball -best aim % etc. Shouldnt be a big deal to do.This too would make ppl wanna try and play more.

-Make pubduel rankings a bigger thing ,display the top 3 or w/e in green regularly.Resets monthly or weekly maybe.Players want fame!

-Spawn players in small safes,maybe put the safes in base ? ( u see many new players spawnkilled constantly while they try figure out commands etc.).

-Automatic shiplock (only for javs lol) after certain amount of tks (intentional or not)for a certain time ,maybe 15-30 mins or something.This would fix many things at once and make ppl play better.

When theres like 20 javs who all try to pull that nice shot it just ends up in a mess of repped bombs/ bombs.This makes it rly hard life for terrs specially.Talking about fr battles here.

-Doublekills,triplekills..maybe some message in green when u hit a longrange shot (NICE SHOT ! playername) or something like that.

-Reduce antiwarp range and make it more expensive 10k or more haha.It just kills basing and is used to troll , how many even uses it? like 1 ppl? Never needed anti to kill LT's.


oh and fix the DAMN SHRAP! its too fast and powerfull (atleast on me with full nrg its usually one-hit-kill eventho someone said its random damage).Sux to die with 500+ bnty to some random undodgeable shrap.

Fyi this is where at least one of you from this "new and improved" staff address these suggestions from one of the new players that you sought out when moving the game to steam, but I'm sure you guys knew that already given the amazing outreach shown in this thread to this particular player.

Welcome to the game tkiiiier, hopefully one of the staff will be able to respond to you shortly, you have made some very good suggestions and also some that have been implemented in the past. Our moderators operate at an elementary level so please be patient when awaiting a reply.

-Votesystem for dif maps (for example 3 or more options and voting between games) map for the next three or w/e rounds.One of the options could be random players made map and changed weekly etc.

Voting on changes sounds good, but totally altering the game all the time sounds like a bit too much as it would confuse players who try to learn the game and require quite a few server restarts. Additionally would reset everyones bounty, freqs, streaks and end pub duels on map changes. Also I would expect the same map to come up all the time anyways. Have one player-created/voted map up for one weekend a month sounds a bit more realistic.

-Votesystem for ships ? (levs ,weasels ,lancs ,new /old settings etc.)

In real time? Not happening as setting changes require server recycles. If you ment voted permanent shipsettings, I assume it would constantly annoy players to see their favourite ships altered or their hate targets getting a benefit. I would link this to what I mentioned before maybe, one weekend a month.

-Make total gametime and roundtime more visible and round start too (sometimes dont notice the roundstart maybe its just me).When ppl see long game going they want to hop in.

There are arena messages, a timer with a flashing objon, you can do ?time or :tw-pubsystem:!time and the round started is usually detected by you being warped into flagroom. What else would you suggest?

-New round end stats ,something like in prodem and/or spaceball -best aim % etc. Shouldnt be a big deal to do.This too would make ppl wanna try and play more.

Actually it is a big deal. If you look at the details on how our bots work on twcore.org, you will notice they basically just spec the players. This means a limited range of sight and with that notice of what players do (fire, location,...), which means the readouts would be very inaccurate and abuseable. This could be changed if we had direct access to the server, but that is still locked up by PriitK.

-Make pubduel rankings a bigger thing ,display the top 3 or w/e in green regularly.Resets monthly or weekly maybe.Players want fame!

They are planned to be shown either above flagroom or on A1 as a graphic, along with most wins for each basing reward. Cannot give you an ETA on when this happens though as there are a lot of other things on the list, too.

-Spawn players in small safes,maybe put the safes in base ? ( u see many new players spawnkilled constantly while they try figure out commands etc.).

So, you would allow an invincible terr to sit in base and have everyone attach? Maybe I just got you wrong though.

-Automatic shiplock (only for javs lol) after certain amount of tks (intentional or not)for a certain time ,maybe 15-30 mins or something.This would fix many things at once and make ppl play better.

This sounds nice, but does not work. Spiteful people would constantly run into bombs. In large crowds, teamkill counts (unintentional) for all bombing ships go up drastically. Inexperienced players who suicide into entrance mines or jav bombs blow up and a lot of other factors happen, which make this not work. We still have the teamkill fee (the teamkiller would auto-donate to the killed one) in the bot. It was disabled due to simply not working in a fair way.

When theres like 20 javs who all try to pull that nice shot it just ends up in a mess of repped bombs/ bombs.This makes it rly hard life for terrs specially.Talking about fr battles here.

Teach those Javs. I know a lot of the "pro" ones do not care about teamkills at all, but with more staff coverage and harsher punishments now this should go down.

-Doublekills,triplekills..maybe some message in green when u hit a longrange shot (NICE SHOT ! playername) or something like that.

Same bot issue as before. Also, you would totally get spammed with Gina multikilling in tube.

-Reduce antiwarp range and make it more expensive 10k or more haha.It just kills basing and is used to troll , how many even uses it? like 1 ppl? Never needed anti to kill LT's.

There are still people who belive it is needed to hunt LTs. Personally, it takes the fun out of the hunt for me as it is too easy and I would not mind anti gone at all. However, I doubt that any nerfing or removal will happen. The lobby is too strong.

oh and fix the DAMN SHRAP! its too fast and powerfull (atleast on me with full nrg its usually one-hit-kill eventho someone said its random damage).Sux to die with 500+ bnty to some random undodgeable shrap.

Nothing is undodgeable. In what would you suggest it's power to be reduced?

[TKillER]

OK some corrections.

As for map change i ment to chance the Base structure to completly something different (another base).Couldnt the current/previous base-size-change-thing be used to do this?.
The size change didnt reset anything or did it?.The biggest fr was too low inside space anyways.

For the total gametime ...i ment what i said ,make it more visible.Total gametime is not even displayed anywhere unless u type !time which is quite stupid.
Put the game/round start notice in the middle of screen with bigger fonts like in some other arenas/zones.The current notices just blends in the chat quickly.
Imo warp to fr by default is not good and is abused by sharks and lts-.

And with the spawn-safes in base i rather was thinking to put them in mid base or lower sides of base,not in fr.There could be a terr sitting in midsafe all day if u ask me.

Ok re-write the round end titles then ,if its so fkn difficult the apply those cooler ones in there

Maybe not doublekills then.How about some type of combo? wb-jav-lanc? or somethin.Tubeminers not a problem for me atleast, fk em tho.


The auto-shiplock could be tested in some form imo."teach those javs"?? u kiddin ?? yeah ok i'll teach them with a few javbombs...
I dont care about what the "pro" ones care or dont care about.


For anti ,like i said ,who even uses it? why let few idiots ruin the rest 20+ ppls fun with it? is that fair then?

Shrap could be the power of one spid bullet or less (lol) def not random dmg.Yeah its maybe not undodgeable but almost,i wanna see u dodge the fast ones in fr while trying to dodge all other stuff.
Btw i dont see much dev ppl baseterring..

TBH there needs to be more purpose/ reasons (more incentive) to play pub in order to retain more new players... TWD is like a drug but pub isn't atm (in my opinion) Can we not focus on ideas to make pub more addictive?


If it can be achieved, why not trial out ideas and work with the public to see if the change was good?

Ideas to make pub more addictive/ other ideas to keep new players playing:

1) Special buys (that costs an awful alot of spacebux) that doesnt ruin pub and gets people to wish to buy it. Having these buy options give spacebux a purpose to collect them.

2) Jackpot idea: displayed on screen so everyone can see (even if in spec) and goes up on time spent in flagroom/ kills etc and total amount is shared in spacebux to the winning team.

3) Ladders that pops up when you enter pub: Just like in elim but for pub (can be disabled) but perhaps it shows the top 10 players that's killed the most in flagroom/ maybe most games won (resets weekly to maintain player interest).

4) A good looking safe in spawn area below base: This will prevent new players being constantly killed while they are trying to learn the controls. They will know soon as they leave safe- to be prepared.

5) Rounds could be increased when the population is at a certain amount- keeping players in pub longer... rewards should be higher during these times.

6) Perhaps a team can buy a brick: Can only be used once every 10 minutes ?certain ship only?


Perhaps impossible ideas but really gives incentive to keep playing pub.

7) Ranking system in pub: You start of as rank 1 (novice) and you level up by getting a required amount of points (which gets progressively higher the higher rank you are). Points are gained from base kills/ flag game wins. On the side of your screen, you can see what rank you are and how many points are left until the next level. On the trench wars website there could be ladders that displays the top 100 ranked players. You get spacebux for levelling up and you will receive more spacebux the higher level you are. Maybe when you level up- you get a little pop up saying Congratulations: you are now rank 4! Allow options for it to be disabled for those who don't want to be involved.
