Guys, pls be forewarned on changing name. The dev is trying to fix the imposter naming issue. And they may adopt the FAST system, ie u need to reset everything including your scores in order to change name. And if they implement that and u just happen to use some funny name, u'll be stuck with that name forever! But no issue if u don't mind restart at 1000 score.
Thanks for the info shern, I had made sure I changed my name back at the end of my day, and logged one kill just to make sure I was OK. I think I won't change it up until after I see how it's going to work.
I'm also fixing my name to [SAB]Sparrow and will not change until they have implemented the fix on imposter issue.
Thanks Shern - i'll follow suit with KeebLer. can't think of anything menacing, but keebler is a little tree elf so I guess i'm the nasty one of the bunch muhahahahaha
For those new to this forum, here are some ideas that we SAB members have come up with, and which I have passed along to Razvan and lance:
I think that a good idea for scoring would be to have the scoring be rank based - I used to play SOCOM, and the system in that game was based on kills vs deaths, win-loss percentage, and most importantly, you were awarded more rank points for killing a high ranked player, and lost points by being killed by a low ranked player. You would not be harshly penalized for playing in a monster game, and would not gain a lot of benefit by cherrypicking noobs. It is a good system.
That sounds like a really good ranking system to me. EDIT: Of course that would make all of us high priority targets... then again, I suppose we are already are to some degree.
I added: Racing, you know, like around pylons and stuff. In all kinds of terrain. That would be awesome fun. As it is, I've slalomed around the telephone poles along the street in a town on one of the maps, which gave me the idea. (Added 3-09-2010).
You have a lot of good ideas up there Frumius. Many are reminiscent of SOCOM's. A squad system is a hugely important idea, and buddy lists. Multiple multiplayer game modes would push this game to a whole new level also. If there were some way to incorporate voice chat within a team that would push the whole concept towards perfect. There are many headphones available with mic's, I wonder if that is technically feasible?
Pls stop making any suggestion until the update is out. If they find your suggestions is good, they may recall the update submission to incooperate your suggestion into the game. And we will have to wait for the update all over again.
I press the Apps Store on my iPhone, go to the check for update menu, and it still says: All Apps Are Up To Date Dang!!!!!
Argh, Orion=Goose! It seems like you don't mind but I was really gunning for you in that game yesterday, good games, I identified you as the biggest threat and was thinking what a good sport you were! I don't think I'd bumped into your alter ego before?? I think I came across handy as negativeangle at some point before as well, like you say, it's good to go up against each other hence my lack of SAB tag. Nice to see M*I*A and <?> on here, gg, I was thinking I didn't see <?> as much but that makes sense as the oz/uk time difference isn't ideal! M*I*A, I was born and bred in suffolk! we could have a 'tractor boys' squadron to ourselves Good ranking suggestion from mr scruff. & good suggestions from frumius Edit: Gorski too! I've seen you a bit recently, gg Edit: Keebler, I'm glad to see you embracing a capital L! look forward to seeing you in SoG with it haha
GG! GG GN-0000! I didn't mean to say adios after i downed you. Sometimes when I flying fast my finger slips. I meant to say GG! It is fun to fly against you in the Hein. The Tempest, not so much... EDIT: Are you flying with rockets in the Hein? We had a close pass and I got hit by a rocket. At first I thought it was you, but then I thought it was the other pilot in the room with all the numbers in his name.
NeLge... really GGs with you - great player - always on the losing end though ... should I be telling you I was ACTUALLY born and bred in that there Norfolk? ooohhh arrrhhh Only recently moved to Suffolk ...'the flying turnips' maybe? haha yellow/green or blue/white Mustang??? Thanks, good to be here my friend! @<?> what a star that fella is niceeeee KDR
