Update in Star Conflict PvP (Unofficial Discussion)

That’s what we’re doing, it wasn’t enjoyable as it has to be in that state.

No, you are avoiding solution and rather remove the game mode than spending a little time fixing it.

 

Would it be so goddamn hard to tell matchmaker to not give Capture Beacon mode unless:

 - Every player has at least 3 ships?

 - There are at least 6 (or whatever number) players on each side?

There are already some criteria in place regarding matches, all you had to do is add a few more.

 

If you don’t have time for that, post the appropriate portion of the code and we will have it fixed for you under a day (possibly under an hour).

I hope this mode was removed because there is a new one to replace it with.

it still stays the mode of leagues, right?

 

and i guess, custom games can also still access it?

 

so if you really really cant live without it…

 

as said, execution: poor. but, necessity, agreeing to kosty: already overdue.

 

even if actually, a three-four-ship deck should IMHO still be mandatory, even without CtB for higher ranks.

No, they don’t want to give us anything, because they think that then we would have too much info or something along those lines… Seriously, what will happen if you give us the code for matchmaking? We couldn’t exploit it in any way, or if there is a way to actually do that, why would we? 

LOL I am sure it is not about coding or not having time for such changes. And I am sure, coding would be the last thing shared.

This is not an open-source project, no one is going to give anybody any code, seriously people.

Yeah, we unlock 4th slot at rank 12 and we have implemented a rule forcing people to unlock ship before you can progress vertically, people should bring 2-3 ships anyways, problem is that if you force this rule by ship count, i bet there will be still cases where people bring naked ships anyways, kind alike when you do a Defiler in a Desstroyer - you equip a naked r13 with it to bypass MM rules anyways, i have done the same thing for Dreadnaughts - i brought 3 naked ship plenty of time simply to be able to fly that one ship i would fly anyways.

really, if you bring naked ships along, because you are so uber adamant you wont need em, you deserve to be able to circumvent it, just so you get your slap to your face at some point.

 

so while this is truly a concern or basicly the rule that with common knowledge also common stupidity increases, at least the game tried its best.

 

so i would see that as a scenario where its okay.

 

also, its nearly impossible not to have 3 ships if you equip one t4 which are not at least capable of the same meta, even if you just take the predecessors, and similarly, you cant really go t5 without at least owning a couple t4 anyway. so even the “i magically unlocked a R10 without having 2 more R9s to equip” scenario is negligible imho.

 

we can become even more creative kosty and find more exquisite scenarios which would begin with a “but…”, but truly overall, it would be just an excuse not to do the right thing .

All I am saying that forcing it “just by” count won’t do to much, especially considering how you can drag equipment from previous tiers into higher ones. Because, realistically, who can have multiple ships in higher tiers?

  • have basic understanding how to adopt (that is like -80% of population :smiley: )

  • knowledgeable and capable in multiple roles

  • farm equipment for 3 different ships

 

meaning that those that bring one ship will bring, a main ship (yeah a guard) and then another guard and another guard and wait for it another guard :slight_smile:

 

I’d love to see people having 2-3 ships in their line up, and capable of using them, but i don’t think simple “force count” will make them.

Back in the old days there was a thing - each slot was dedicated to a ship size inti+fighter+frig, but that went to much against CTB game mode so it was removed at some point. As stupid as it might sound to some people, i would love this thing to be back - it will force people to be more versatile in their gaming (keep 4th slot as wild card - any ship size goes in), especially now since CTB is no more in Random PvP

Easy fix idea: just reduce the rate at which the gamemode appears, and give all players a set amount of respawns. ^^

:fed014:  Just fix it by turning it into an actual realistic mode. One Life Per Pilot, not per ship.

Don’t just go about removing it from regular pvp and putting it in a mode where hardly anyone goes…

sigh…

 

Well, there goes my tradition of ‘one ship wonder’.  That was what I enjoyed the most in this game from the time I started playing…

Now it’s just random beacon games with the occasional decent game of team battle or combat recon…  :fed014:

 

Beacon Games Are Not Fun. Capture the beacons, in other words, Realistic, was fun. The others? not really.

 

Now, give us something good…   2zLVc3G.gif

That is actually a good idea, but in some scenarios it could be a pain to deal with. Maybe the devs should limit it to only a specific number of game modes. 

That’s was the main issue here. It’s not every game mode by this point. Still available, btw.

lemme get this straight…you received a few complaints about a game mode and took it out, but almost the entire SC community complains about you taking squads out and you tell us we’re wrong?

 

you are the reason I padded my desk…

Yeah, you are wrong, because saying “almost entirely SC community” is being ignorant and trying to put more nonexistent weight into own words, meaning you are not even sure in your own statements so you instinctively trying to make them sound more important.

 

well except the genius who puts in 4 of the same type - which is ok if he is healer, and borderline psychotic if its 4 LRF.

C’MAN now whats wrong with 4 gönships?? xD

From what I can understand, you are trying to say that “almost the entire SC community” means that I’m not sure about it? If you’re asking for exact numbers, you’re right, I’m not sure about that. But the only ignorant one here is you and I’m not talking about your ignorance of the English language, personal hygiene, or how to intelligently debate someone. I’m talking about your ignorance of how many people actually want squads back. You are practically the only one that has disagreed with it on the forums other than the devs. You are all alone kosty, in fighting this suggestion and in real life. :( 

If you don’t have time for that, post the appropriate portion of the code and we will have it fixed for you under a day (possibly under an hour).

I already offered to do this on something else.

It sure is funny hearing about intelligent debate from you.

Regarding squads, please show me where i said that i don’t want squads to come back on conditional terms, and while you are at it show me where i said that i do want it. So far you cant even comprehend a basic thing as my stance on the matter. Saying “everybody wants this and that” as a reasoning behind a point is a basic sign of ones insecurity about own statement.

Oh and btw i am well aware of level of my grammar, which is expected considering how English is not even a 2nd language of mine. Instead of stating the obvious how about you show us how it is done.

great intelligent argument, brah.

Forgive me, but I don’t see any cringe in that.
