Event Suggestion - Nuclear winter

_ It’s cold outside and that means it’s time to warm things up! _

 

_ This event would allow all ships to equip Nukes! Get your rad clothing on and check you Geiger counter at the door! _

 

10, 20, 30, 40, and 50 kills for prizes.

 

Who’s with me?

 

As long as people don’t get trolled by this event, like “Hey do you have a blueprint?” “definitely not” *BOOOM*

I’m thinking this would be PVP only… not in Invasion or PVE. Just a fun game of nuke that beacon among friends… lol

Yes :smiley: Although I can see potential for it to be annoying… Combat recon… Beacon hunt…

not wanting to sound like the grinch complaining about xmas, but i have the feeling, giving the useless covert ops special weapon to everybody, would not help that role atm. very much, becoming more than the designated dogfight vessel.

 

not that i have any problems with it per se; for me the CO is ideal in terms of abilities, well rounded, and the best ship to be abused solely as 1vs1 skilltesting machine, where you only watch mobility, tank and damage output, especially because nukes were always either OP or a joke, as far as i remember, depending on patch, while other classes have too serious side roles to be equipped solely to hunt for lost sheep in the crowd, so you basicly always go for rockets on that role to keep being close to useful.

 

i feel no enwonderment, that it is the role with the most controversial discussions all over the forum so i don’t wanted to plant another here.

 

i think, a nuke fest would be fun, especially to get some of the more hard achievements, but i am not entirely sure, what a light it would shed atm. on the CO and it’s almost useless special weapon, which is like the only ship you probably would not equip with it, even if every ship can carry it.

 

I vote neither pro nor con. I would love such an event, but I see clouds in the bright sunny sky anyway all the time.

I might vote pro later on, even with my remarks. Gotta think about this.

I would say it will be really funny to see come true, with all those ships around blowing up. but how would we know if players might crash they game from so many nuke explosions.

(because they have a bad pc and internet network, deal with the truth…)

This would be fun. :3

Nukes will still be greatly underpowered and hardly used.

 

However, if you were to turn the nuke into a disco ball shooting rainbows…

You want unicorns and ponies as well?

The recognition of Rainbows in space and Unicorn farts are the first symptoms of radiation poisoning! When in doubt nuke the rainbows and unicorns… Humanity will forever be in your debt!

You want unicorns and ponies as well?

And the ability to turn ships pink, of course.

I think the eclipse launcher should be given this function.  It was a chrismas weapon after all!

I am entirely failing to see the connection, but absolutely!

Well we are trying to make this chrismas more interesting yes?

 

So take one of the most annoying weapons to be hit by, and make it even more annoying by making it turn your ship pink (why not your whole screen while we are at it)

Oh, of course. Meanwhile, gravibeams also force your fps to be lowered, and kinetic supercharger gains the sound effects of eclipse.

Ok so here’s the plan:

  • eclipse turns your ship pink

-supercharger turns it bright yellow

-gravibeamer turns it rainbow coloured

Definitely. Must add.
