Title: band covert ops
Post by: highlandknight on August 17, 2010, 11:04:05 PM
covert ops should be band. it takes the skill out of the game when you pop a station and then they use covert ops and take 16 tril from you. and in d-day nothing but pvp should be allowed ever. covert ops is something that should be band. if you agree say yea.  Thanks

covert ops has already been put away for dday.  and the covert ops from hitting stations is good...  it makes it so that somebody cant low up all of your stations every single day so you dont make any progress on nanites, therefore losing.  this way they have to be aware that if they want to blow up a station they will pay the price for it

the price is too steep though.. higher players hitting lower players is part of the game... someone losing trillions over popping a station is dumb

but the lose trillions if they already have way more than that. if a player with 500 trillion credits, loses 10 trillion, its not as big of a deal for them as if a small player had 3 billion sitting on a popped station and only had 5 billion credits to their name.

your point being, the top players can do more damage? they deserve to be yet further disadvantaged because they can crush little people..

well, you see spayed the players who suggested this were having stations popped daily, so they made zero progress on all of the mothership modules, and they could not replicate or mine minerals for anything else. I bet if you were in the same boat as some players this round you would want counters for station attacks. And emy you want it gone because you are in the same alliance as the guy popping the stations. if you weren't you would be crying foul louder than anyone else.

exactly.  the reason that counters were given for stations is because of bobo going around rampaging and killing about 200 stations per day.  some people were having their stations popped twice a day and were never able to unload them because they always log on to find them gone.  So in order to stop this completely unnecessary actions of rampage, we have counters.   Remember, no law is made until somebody does something that we need to make a law against.  essentially, people doing stupid things that the rest of us figured was common sense

meh its not that hard to counteract getting stations popped... spend time protecting them... it cots 3x the amount to get scanner tech then cloaking...


Title: Re: band covert ops

it is difficult to do much with stations being popped daily. besides, it is also hard to get higher cloaking than someone donating who knows what a day.

i say it should at least be taken down the amount they take and stuff it should be only like 1% now people can boost off others. and pirate you cant beat them join them

Post by: Pirate55 on August 29, 2010, 09:20:34 AM
yea they haven't been around for long and they are already on that list of great bands that were ruined by a terrible lead singer.


Title: Re: band covert ops
Post by: Borg! on August 29, 2010, 09:42:18 AM
yeah it has good backup singers, dancers, and a good beat. But they just need to get rid of that lead singer...

i would like to say   :sorry: hahahahhaa not really it was so much fun blowing up 150 stations in the early days of the server it changed the pace of the game so much made people invest in cloaking way earlier than they would normally but these counters are not going to help cause i will pop early then not pop any stations at all late in the game just like last time so good luck next round  hi
