Title: Mothership AI revamp
Post by: Satan on May 24, 2007, 02:23:16 AM
Ok this is just an idea I had but when I first started playing the game (not that long ago), I found the mothership AI sort of confusing. I also reccommended the game to several freinds, who didnt make it past the basic fleetbuilding stuff because they were unable figure out the game. (YI know its not REALLY hard..but still..I think they where more used to games where everything is very clear and overly easy to understand) Anyway I think that with a little bit of work the Newbie AI would be a lot simpler to understand; which should attract more people to the game and they will probably stick to it. Im not talking about any fancy code or anything...just some new text that is easy even for super noobs to understand.

J.T.

(P.S. I think E did a great job with the original mothership AI, just sometimes the text can be slightly unclear and confusing to the newer members)

Ya I know but there are still alot of people out there who are either too lazy or lacking in certain mental facilitys to go and look for guides on the forum.

ya or they come to this forum and say
"OH IM FRICKEN 1337 GIMME SOME FRICKEN GIDS 0R 1L NOK UR FRICKEN N00B BALLS OFF"
i may be exaggerating some but this is a common occurrence in game forums
designing experience cant really be teached anyways

geuss it is pretty useless. we should have some of the good members of this game make a guide for that.. ive done walkthoughs before (actally alot on msn) but it would be a good idea to clear it up and update it a bit..

i like the idea of an updated mothership ai.. it doesnt give too much help.. maybe it should also post a link to a section of the forums with guides to further help new players to the game

I agree. Excellent call, Cameron.
