Basing: New Rules?

[Troll King]

With 8 players per team and 8 ships to choose from, it would be unrealistic to assume that all 8 ships would be used effectively, even if ships like the levi, weasel and lanc were adjusted for basing. The only way they would is if they were given the same ship settings as another.

Or if they were made slightly different, like making a spider similar ship with a bit more energy but less speed... or something :/

Why can't we have constant damage on bullets instead of the random we have now?

1- never
2- nope
3- !! no way
4- could be fun

but i think that base is fine the way it is so y make any changes?

I liked Ghost Child's earlier idea of making the extra ships different colored terrs and spiders for individual teams. With the bot putting people into games, it'd be a snap.

Weasel=Blue terr for team 1
Levi= Orange spider for team 1
Lanc= White shark for team 1


Though that'd be one butt ugly team.

I'm not sure where i stand on this. it would be better for people with more aim and skill, but then it would take the equality out of spiders in base. and also, there are some days where you get on a hot streak where your energy is always more powerful and your damage taken isnt too high, and thats always good. but on the other hand, i dont like it when i dodge 5 bullets, get hit by one, and die. so i could go either way with this suggestion.

If we change the ship color per team, I suggest we make one team red and one team blue instead of each team with like 5 different colors

[Galleleo]

I like all different colors more

What I wouldn't mind is some 9v9 basing.

Tottaly changes everything, 5 spiders isn't radical, you can have 6 spiders (2 groups of 3 or 3 groupings of 2)
1 wb 2 javs and 3 spiders.


BUT I wouldn't do this because we're overloaded with lag AS IT IS.

You could do warm colors vs cool colors.
Freq 0
Weasel= Gnarly Yellow Spiders (lemon fresh scent!)
Classic Red Terrier (The porsche of TW)
Lancaster= Shiny Orange Shark (better get your sunglasses!)

Freq 1
Classic Green Spidy (Camoed for true forest fighting)
Levi= (oh the irony!) Suave Blue Terrier (Fresh out of SEAL training)
and maybe change the shark to grappity grape or something.

Unfortunately we don't have 2 extra slots to do a perfect job of color coordinating. Those javs and birds sure are going to clash.

10v10 larger map.

I love two terr.

If only walls were thicker, than levs would work lol

BAH leave basing unless we wanna work our butts off changing it.
