Yeah hence the need to test it out brother, And just because were going to PvP soon doesn't mean i have the right to abuse this testing phase and kill your peds or light your FTs on fire I wished this could have all been tested by Sam to perfection before now but it didn't so we are helping him for a week, after that all the super powers go bye bye. ......................... vet marshal wv pvp3 zom circuit2 pvp1 cont Posted May 1, 2010, 10:10 pm

I can understand a player of your calibre, skill and training that the use of these powers would make your hair stand on end. 3-5 years (real time) of training going up in smoke before you can pull ya gun is a bit frightening. From what i have seen and read of the powers of psis I thought they would be too powerful, which is why I voiced the opinion. Seems though that everything will be balanced nicely after the testing phase and being able to test the limits of the power as they are coded is most important to weed out any bugs or possible exploits of the abilities. The later, I believe most important. To currently be able to use these powers before firing starts could help test under a safe environment. An ambush 8 on 2 sure wasn't the safest 'ey Tink, although probably good all the same to test in this stressful environment. Hope the ambo is back to 100%. I'm happy to be a rabbit in testing. ......................... marshal vet wv pvp4 zom cont pvp32,12,1 Posted May 2, 2010, 2:05 am Last edited May 2, 2010, 2:07 am by Bastiel

Serephe Collision Force Darkwind Guru Renegade Group: Members Posts: 3,496 Joined: Dec 9, 2007 I tested friendly fire on myself, though was tired and forgot to post the results. The results were me being able to set fire to my own allied vehicles. Will post the event ID in the thread now. ......................... vet wv paintladder ww0,3,0 Posted May 2, 2010, 2:19 am

*goat starer* Special Circumstances Darkwind Guru Evan Reds Faction Group: Contributors Posts: 10,908 Joined: Oct 29, 2007 look bas... whan RGMs, mounted mortars and heavy lasers vanish from the game I will start to believe that balance is going to be there in anything else. These already change PVP battles from tactics and talent into contests of purchasing power. You can call it psionics but this is actually introducing magic... i dont like magic in my games.

*Bastille* Raging Scavengers Darkwind Guru Evan Reds Faction Group: Marshals + Contributors Posts: 7,513 Joined: Mar 31, 2009 I do wonder sometimes how a world thrown into chaos can be so heavily based around economy. Even Bastille has starting to take part in money making schemes, weapon imports and exports. Most fun is to be had in a couple of Apaches or BPUs out gunned and out numbered 5 to 2 in an ambush where the tide can turn so quickly. Balancing firing arcs and weak armor, where one mistake can cost a life or two. A world needs its movers and shakers, as for earthquake makers Im not too sure. I get peeved when low skill gunners out shoot me 3 to 1 and take more than twice the damage I dish out for the same number of hits. I guess that's the roll of the dice. I need better dice! ......................... marshal vet wv pvp4 zom cont pvp32,12,1 Posted May 2, 2010, 3:24 am

*jimmylogan* MADHAT Darkwind Guru Civs Faction Group: Marshals + Rule Council Posts: 5,605 Joined: Jun 11, 2008 I came here for cars (Car Wars, not Ped Wars) but peds haven't ruined the game for me. As far as I'm concerned the "game" itself is an engine - it's a tool I can use to get away from the 'real world' for a while. Are there things I might do differently? Probably. Are there things I'd leave out completely? Possibly. Are these enough to make me stop playing? No, definitely not. ......................... vet marshal deathrceL1 wv community combatL1 Posted May 2, 2010, 12:01 pm

Even just the "can set peds and animals on fire" by itself would make this an excellent enhancement. So, I'm assuming these Psi specialisms kick in at skill level 50?

triad4evr Seekers Racer Renegade Group: Members Posts: 192 Joined: Aug 20, 2009 Like so many other things in this game, I doubt I'll ever see the impact of Psionics. They are like mortars, lasers, and other elite stuff I'll probably never be hardcore enough to get. So I'm just not going to let it bother me. I hardly ever get involved in PvP anyway, other than the Firelight Arena, which still baffles me as being PvP since it announces "Humans Win!" when you kill all the monsters, rather than making you fight your way down to last man standing like it _should_ if you are _really_ making it a PvP arena (or at least to a time limit). But that's neither here nor there. Good luck, those of you who have them! It will be interesting to see the exploits that will come out of this new wrinkle. ......................... vet wv Posted May 4, 2010, 5:37 am

This was one of the reasons why I did leave about 1 year ago. Previously I played DW for nearly 1 year game time, the best I had was Apaches, with HMGs and HGGs and maybe the odd paint gun and CC .. When I watched a recordings with 1 guy with 3 turins all with lasers .. it sort of made me wonder if I would ever get anywhere near this .. With the intro of scavenger mode, DW seems bit getting even harder .. and I though the existing game was hard. ......................... vet wv zom Posted Jul 27, 2011, 11:26 pm

d0dger an0maly Darkwind Guru Deathrace Mafia Faction Group: Members Posts: 2,492 Joined: Jan 24, 2010 Maybe these parts: -random perma damage to gear based on wear and tear -random chance for electronics-based gear to fail in certain aurora conditions A new category of stock town event will be created: ‘scavenger’ events – where every car starts with randomised initial damage But those are all just allowing random chance to put you in a disadvantaged state, not really making the game harder to play. ......................... vet wv combat1 combatL1 paintladder pvp5 sssc deathrceL1 pvp4 zom race1 semiprocombat deathrce1 raceL1 pvp3 pvp2 ww pvp1 paintball santa2 gwped4,16,10 Posted Jul 27, 2011, 11:38 pm

And simply due to the fact that unlimited events spawn that will award ammo of some types, whatever they are, people will amass large stockpiles of some ammo at least. ......................... vet wv combat1 combatL1 paintladder pvp5 sssc deathrceL1 pvp4 zom race1 semiprocombat deathrce1 raceL1 pvp3 pvp2 ww pvp1 paintball santa2 gwped4,16,10 Posted Jul 28, 2011, 12:04 am Last edited Jul 28, 2011, 12:06 am by d0dger
