Title: A Random Idea
Post by: Lammalord on September 14, 2006, 10:10:57 PM
heres an idea, i was wondering when something isnt being tested, how about every once in a while do something to let people enjoy themselves useing the test server, AKA one were everyone gets like 1 mil segs, 5k turns or so.. and like 10 quad, as a free for all (only PvP) kind of thing..

or well different things like that.. well only when there isnt something to be tested, keeping a high rank can get real hard sometimes.. and it may make people feal good if they had tons of money just to mess around with.. or well different things. mabey one were you have 10 bil, and only black holes. so you get to go around doing black holes and mission contacts.. or well. ya other "special" events like that when time permits...

Well you can use the 10 bil you receive to play, but it will be pretty hard to get new credits, due to the fact the is no interest and market, but you can conpete to see who can get higher.

well i know that, but i was saying when there isnt something to test, to give like tons of credits, or tons of something and have sort of like 48 hour special events, or stuff.. and well mabey even have a "game room" were it shows 1st 2nd and 3rd of the games... well not permently.. but ya i bet you would get tons of people to play if there was a setting PvP and 10 quad.. people would go crazy :P

ya use the test server on a free day for a 48 hour "dday status" 10 quad starting off PvP only thing lol, just to mess around

well, that's good, as long as you minus the #1 can attack #200 thing, as that would kinda stink, but since it's 48 hours, make like the last 12 hours a d-day senerio, so ppl have time to build rather then race to be the first to buy a ship of great power.

A space odyssey Death Match.  lol.  you could have it this way:
10 quad credits
no starting ship designs
50% attack defense hp bonus and marine capacity
20% accuracy and sheild bonus
25% cost reduction to ship resupply and marine supply
no missions, galaxy, market, secret base or reserves

then after 24 hours, the person with the most segments out of 1 million left is declared the winner.  if a tie, the person with highest power then wins. 

oh, and no way at all to gain segments, except to attack others.

-edit: lol, no ship designs at all, that would be rather hard to attack people then,  :))

ya well monkey good point 36 hours to get a defence then 12 hours of all out attack.. humm like i said its an idea, and all ideas can be improved..

and ars thats another good idea for something, see what i mean..  but only when the server isnt in use for other things.. i mean i know this will attact people to play, just to mess around.. thats good right?

yea, it'll also provide an escape for those who are fed up with the main game at points (such as now where it's pretty much impossible to do anything.) so they won't get bored and quit.

Post by: Lammalord on September 19, 2006, 07:13:59 PM
ya lol (looks for some scious relief by mindlessly attacking people on a non-ranked not noramal game set)
oh oh halo  :19:

(is eagerly awaiting Sir Emi's responses on this and the Classic SO version, is hoping he likes both)

This would be fun though, 36 hours to prepare, 12 hours to annilate everything/one. Almost sounds like a hollywood movie that's not a remake!

for this one yea, that would work. For Classic SO,r ound 3 would be better, but that's covered in suggestions.

i like the idea, and it culd also give players that r lower in the ranks 2 learn a few thigns and get the feel of the game a bit better

ya lol were loseing a ship dosent really matter that much lol

Post by: thezerg on September 26, 2006, 07:14:28 PM
This sounds really fun. Also, you could use it to get back at people you couldn't touch in the real game

YES lol

I haven't heard anything on either this or the classic SO....I wonder what's going on.


Title: Re: A Random Idea
Post by: Remfer on October 22, 2006, 10:38:23 PM
that's a great way for getting a feel for the game.  Making cost effective yet powerful ships and an all out battle dday senario...not only would you learn something about SO it would be fun when you're waiting for turns or something else like credits in a stash or something or just bored


Title: Re: A Random Idea
Post by: Lammalord on October 22, 2006, 11:48:15 PM
not like that waiting is a problem anymore.. with the way emi has things now the only good missions are 20-40% and there is almost never any due to everyone doing them, i can almost never find any decent missions...


Title: Re: A Random Idea
Post by: Remfer on October 23, 2006, 07:16:29 AM
i can find a lot fo missions though since i do 1% just to be safe, though sometimes i do 2-3%...

i'm not that confindent in a ship whose fleet power is 2.5 mil and lost to a galaxy missions with 6 mil

Hey guys.... an old topic i know but sounds like a lot of fun.... random but could be interesting....


Title: Re: A Random Idea
Post by: Silence444 on July 26, 2007, 11:42:47 AM
i dont know why this topic was dropped... but you could even advertise the server as a sort of SO EXTREME! and u would get, to a small degree, more site traffic... believe it or not there are a lot of poeple (or at least american teenagers) with too much time, money and not enough of an atention span to use it.

idk, it is just really hard to find an intense pvp strategy game that doesnt take montsh to play... just saying it would be rly cool and i could garuntee at least 6 of my friends alone would use it (4 might even pay for it)

(i know this belongs under sugestions or somthing but i was skimming the forums and it seemed like it needed to be said)

Do NOT Ress old topics, even in a small area like test server. It is against forum rules, and repeatedly doing so can result in serious consequences such as being banned from the forum. Djjcuk, you revived thsi topic well after 6 months of inactivity, and Silence, after more than 3 months. The longest any topic (excluding those in alliance stance) is allowed to revived and posted in is 1 month, after that, the topic is concidered dead and posting is no longer allowed. Please do not do this again, thank you.

what the hell is your problem monkey? so what it got set back up again.. it may not be talked on alot but at least its a decent post that goes along with whats ask there should be nothing against that.. the rule is mostly for reviveing dead topic's just to post to get your posts up or something.. if they have a valaid arugument and it still seems reasonable to post it then nothing should be wronge with it theres no need to get all pissy about it
