    And DBC/Undead, We should test that out. (The entire monster data thing)

    P.S. I'd like to see exactly how right you two are about Siggy over there. My laser cannon versus Siegfried. Who says I can't trade blows with him? :rolleyes: :p Silly humans.

    Make four, why not? Three gold, one mithril. Similar to the Assault/RPG/Grenade/Shotgun/Laser selling design. Make it so that the noobs can afford one, average can get one, and the top players can get the best.

    Different weapons have same gold multiplier, I did this on PP and the ratio of each was 1.5 ish(off by 0.001 or so) and so I figured out the ratio of money of these aliens.

    Darthguy: I want a napalm weapon as well, which actually infects an area of the ground and causes damage to whoever steps in it. That way, we'd have a weapon emulating the poison spit of Poison Pit and Serpent :p

    Superion: From what I understand, there IS a gold multiplier depending on the number of players you bring into the match, and the multiplier should be the same as what happens to the boss's gold drop (i.e. 25% extra for 2 players, 50% extra for 3 players). I think Darthguy is aware of it already, but aliens definitely drop more gold on different maps as the difficulty level rises, as each alien becomes stronger and more resilient.

    I'm starting to think that we might be better off finding someone who can get inside the programming of the game -- or just ask Freyr, unlikely as it may be that they'd divulge the information willingly...

    I REALLY should sleep soon, but you want to go try Siegfried without moving? Or if you have the Thunder Armour, I can let you test out that ultimate damage combo you so badly wanted to try out >.>

    i.e. Thunder Armour ability + STK pack + STK.F booster + hyper clip, all on the Laser Cannon.

    If you want to try something, make a room and lemme know what you want me to do (including if you don't want me firing a shot so you can test out your individual power). Be quick though, I need sleep at some point >.>

    ----------------

    Edit: maaaaaaaaybe another day, I think I'll need my sleep soon enough >.>

    Uhm... guys... you know how I've been pretty incessantly complaining about my (lack of) Mithril drops? Yeah, well, I have a (pretty crappy) theory...

    I just attempted to play 10-12 rounds, hoping to catch a familiar name online...

    After 8-10 unfinished Mantis and 2 PP runs due to the game not spawning enemies after one or more players left, I finally finished the bosses... I got no Mithril, and one player in each game got 1 or 2 respectively

    Do each and every one of my aborted attempts count toward my "first Mithril drop?":confused::(:eek::rolleyes:

    That might explain why I don't collect, right? If the first attempt is the first chance, and each failed attempt therafter only decreases my odds, despite not actually seeing the boss in question?

    "Mithril drop rates decrease when you are awarded Mithril for defeating a boss. This is reset every 24h." - Star Warfare loading screen advice

    According to how Freyr worded it, your chances of getting Mithril shouldn't decrease until you've actually gotten your hands on some. If your theory is indeed how it actually works in practice, that would majorly suck.

    ...actually, it STILL sucks as it is -- the element of surprise is meant to excite, not frustrate! =.="

    Drop rates decrease after getting mithril not defeating a boss so this theory is crappy:p Joking Joking:p;) but still, probably not...

    I have to be honest with you, I can't play too much SW. It frustrates me to the point that my partner says she can tell when I've been playing it recently, as opposed to other similar games I play on a daily basis...:eek::rolleyes:;):D

    That said, so much about the game is so good, I just really hope Freyr takes some of the suggestions to heart and makes some much-needed changes to increase the enjoyment of their users...

    After all, increased enjoyment means increased revenue, right?;):D

    Sadly, my theory would have ironically been better news for me, but after you and undead.exe weighing in, I'll just go back to my "broken Mithril distribution" theory...

    7 defeated Mantises today, zero Mithril.

    4 defeated Poison Pits today, zero Mithril.

    Lovin' the Mithril Distribution system, Freyr... it's so, random!:rolleyes:

    *pats DBC on the shoulder*

    Would you like some fried serpent meat as consolation? I think we might've overcooked him a little, with three laser cannons and chainguns >.>

    Ya we don't want a game to take us out of our normal personality zone:)
    Argh!!!! Another long drawn out 6.3 million to max out the M-27.....can and could I survive and I mean mentally!!!
    And undead.exe suggested I get Cygni legs which is helpful advice but costs another 2.3 million!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Can't wait for updates so there will be more weapons and stuff that seems unreacheable to mortals like us
    I'm holding out until a thermal nuclear weapon is for sale...... $999,000,000 or 7000 Mithril and your first born child
    See the enjoyment we could be having!!!!
    Take care:)

    Four Rages victories (awesome teams BTW, kill totals in all four matches were within 1,000 of each other:D), one other player got three Mithril (yes, one out of twelve possible drops)...

    I'm out. Anyone wants to play together, to actually have fun, shoot me a PM, but yeah, I'm officially done with SW randoms for right now. I'm not taking SW off my phone yet in the hopes of a meaningful update, but the Mithril/matching frustration is not enjoyable, and quite frankly, since I play games to enjoy myself, not worth it.

    Good luck, and if I don't talk to you guys again, it was truly awesome playing and hanging out with all of you!

    Capricorn, if you don't want to spend 2.3 million on the Cygni legs, you could substitute the Thunder or Perseus Legs if you already have those. Be warned though, with the Thunder Legs, you'll experience a SHARP drop in HP, so make sure you use that extra speed to dodge!

    DBC, you *can* safely remove Star Warfare from your phone if you don't want it taking up space, because it's possible to restore your save data directly from the server if you want. If you're not pressed for space though, keep it on, I'll be happy to run alongside you some time if you'd like (no problems trying to stay in contact, what with BTHD in the mix :p). One of us will be sure to give you a heads up if an update or something interesting happens!

    I agree with this ^^ DBC, don't worry about SW right now. What IS concerning is you not talking to us anymore. In that case, you had better stay here, or at least be on TA/BTHD
