Dec 31, 2016 68 AM - Ranger: so u asking a substitute for empires
Dec 31, 2016 68 AM - Neoony: the closest seems to me something like quake
Dec 31, 2016 68 AM - Ranger: hm there's non. empire is crappy in a unique way!
Dec 31, 2016 68 AM - Neoony: for some creepy reason
Dec 31, 2016 68 AM - Neoony: just the arcade of it
Dec 31, 2016 69 AM - Neoony: that adrenaline :D

Dec 31, 2016 69 AM - Neoony: not like empires
Dec 31, 2016 6:40 AM - Neoony: not that combination
Dec 31, 2016 6:40 AM - Neoony: thats where its unique
Dec 31, 2016 6:41 AM - Neoony: I just like empires because of how small it is
Dec 31, 2016 6:41 AM - Neoony: but then its a problem to play
Dec 31, 2016 6:41 AM - Neoony: just empires loves to be on a balance of something
Dec 31, 2016 6:42 AM - Neoony: balance of living and dying
Dec 31, 2016 6:42 AM - Neoony: of the whole game
Dec 31, 2016 6:42 AM - Neoony:
Dec 31, 2016 6:42 AM - Neoony: balance meaning, near the line
Dec 31, 2016 6:43 AM - Neoony: not sure how else to describe
Dec 31, 2016 6:43 AM - Ranger: we need to build a place for empires to protect it from the dangers of the outside world. it's uniqueness makes it of unparallelelleleled importance for the survival of the whole doggo race.
Dec 31, 2016 6:43 AM - Ranger: its
Dec 31, 2016 6:43 AM - Neoony: holy shit yeah

Jan 1, 2017 at 6:41 AM - CRITAWAKETS: 2016 emulation in a nutshell
Jan 1, 2017 at 6:42 AM - CRITAWAKETS: Dolphin 5.0 increases pant sales at walmart by 600%, Desmume lead coder found to have been sabotaging for years preliminary locay WI-FI code that someone put all their time into.
Jan 1, 2017 at 6:58 AM - CRITAWAKETS: Atleast i have good news for DS emulation and this year's emulation scene in general.
Jan 1, 2017 at 6:58 AM - CRITAWAKETS: Someone is deciding to finally make a new emulator after like what, 7 years?
Jan 1, 2017 at 6:58 AM - CRITAWAKETS: This time by someone that is actually competent and likes DS Wifi/Wireless support
Jan 1, 2017 at 6:59 AM - CRITAWAKETS: And also likes pokemon instead of hating it to the point of having it broken for years and breaking other games because of his hate
Jan 1, 2017 at 11:02 AM - Avatarix: ay
Jan 1, 2017 at 11:02 AM - Avatarix: can i haz my ip unbanned cause i need to use proxy?
Jan 1, 2017 at 4:26 PM - CRITAWAKETS: 2017 has plans for empires, i can predict the future.
Jan 1, 2017 at 4:26 PM - CRITAWAKETS: First we will see some great updates then we will make some PUGs.
Jan 1, 2017 at 4:26 PM - CRITAWAKETS: And then well this is going to be bleak
Jan 1, 2017 at 4:27 PM - CRITAWAKETS: Server drama will completely destroy the community with things such as unfair bans on the only popular server.
Jan 1, 2017 at 4:28 PM - CRITAWAKETS: Drama erupts between the scripter and the users for making changes that just benefit him and his playstyle
Jan 1, 2017 at 4:28 PM - CRITAWAKETS: Massbanning happens
Jan 1, 2017 at 4:28 PM - CRITAWAKETS: Empires dies due to almost no veterans playing the game
Jan 1, 2017 at 5:27 PM - Avatarix: well, what can we do to bring them back?
Jan 1, 2017 at 5:28 PM - Avatarix: oh wait, they are viral and will scare new players off
Jan 1, 2017 at 6:27 PM - Señor_Awesome: hey let's repeat january of last year that worked out well right
Jan 1, 2017 at 6:28 PM - Señor_Awesome: community totally wasn't dead in the water for 2 months
Jan 1, 2017 at 6:29 PM - Señor_Awesome: then we can put little red text over the shoutbox again and threaten bans

Jan 1, 2017 at 10:48 PM - Neoony: https://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?t=274576
Jan 1, 2017 at 10:48 PM - Neoony: or just might be useful for admin
Jan 1, 2017 at 10:50 PM - Neoony: But then I guess its possible to route the voice in source?
Jan 1, 2017 at 10:50 PM - Neoony: easily?
Jan 1, 2017 at 10:57 PM - LT.: Avatarix - You aren't welcome in our community. Do you honestly think we will welcome you with open arms after our last encounter? It's not our problem that you must use a proxy. Deal with the consequences of your actions
Jan 1, 2017 at 11:15 PM - Paradox: This is your community now LT?
Jan 1, 2017 at 11:16 PM - Paradox: Cause I thought it was just your server
Jan 1, 2017 at 11:16 PM - Paradox: or are you guys finally ready to admit
Jan 1, 2017 at 11:16 PM - Paradox: The server is basicly the community and the game all together
Jan 1, 2017 at 11:22 PM - LT.: No idea why you are responding to a post that has nothing to do with you. To clarify Although we know Avatarix is on the server, he is not welcome. That was the main point. Hop you had a good Christmas
Jan 1, 2017 at 11:22 PM - vipervicki: if you want him you can have him paradox
Jan 1, 2017 at 112 PM - Paradox: I dont want him, avatarix is a douchebag first class
Jan 1, 2017 at 112 PM - vipervicki: we agree again
Jan 1, 2017 at 113 PM - Paradox: Im just talking about in general, the server is the community and this entire game
Jan 1, 2017 at 113 PM - vipervicki: i think the forums is the community sicne alot more on forum than play on server
Jan 2, 2017 at 3:29 AM - CRITAWAKETS: I like avatarix
Jan 2, 2017 at 3:29 AM - CRITAWAKETS: i guess im getting banned now.
Jan 2, 2017 at 3:29 AM - CRITAWAKETS: It was a fun time with the community.
Jan 2, 2017 at 3:29 AM - Neoony: cya
Jan 2, 2017 at 31 AM - CRITAWAKETS: see ya later, sucker!
Jan 2, 2017 at 3:55 AM - Lazybum: Reading out of context thread and older off topic threads and I have one question
Jan 2, 2017 at 3:55 AM - Lazybum: Where did the fun go?

 

Jan 2, 2017 4:17 AM - Kidpaler: Nowhere, it's still there. We can all post there just like you can, it's just we lost interest in it. Someone should do another one of those forum games where its the mystery thing etc
Jan 2, 2017 4:20 AM - CRITAWAKETS: EPIC and Viper were radiating fun
Jan 2, 2017 4:20 AM - CRITAWAKETS: now NUBS is radiating boredom
Jan 2, 2017 4:20 AM - CRITAWAKETS: Oh and also alot of veterans left
Jan 2, 2017 4:20 AM - CRITAWAKETS: Mcguyver, Bigteef, alot of Viroman

Jan 2, 2017 3:40 PM - A-z-K: gaaaay
Jan 2, 2017 3:40 PM - Avatarix:
Jan 2, 2017 3:41 PM - Paradox: yer a cunt bag
Jan 2, 2017 3:41 PM - Avatarix: oh you silly, why use such teasing names?
Jan 2, 2017 3:42 PM - Thexa4: Be nice.
Jan 2, 2017 3:42 PM - Avatarix: also @Thexa4 check hipchat
Jan 2, 2017 3:43 PM - Avatarix: and be nice indeed! not being a good boy is bad for community and scares new players away!
Jan 2, 2017 3:45 PM - Paradox: Avatarix instead of trying to be smart and using shit arguments just say you dont like the fucking sound ya bitch ass bitch
Jan 2, 2017 3:46 PM - Avatarix: did you even read the tl;dr
Jan 2, 2017 3:46 PM - Avatarix: yo stoopid butch
Jan 2, 2017 3:47 PM - Thexa4: Last warning, both of you, either be constructive or stop talking
Jan 2, 2017 3:47 PM - Avatarix: also stop projecting 'realism' on even more weapons - nukes don't ahve to be 1000kT of force or chainguns to use .33 cal or something like that
Jan 2, 2017 3:47 PM - Avatarix: this was constructive ok
Jan 2, 2017 3:48 PM - Paradox: ARe you serious right now
Jan 2, 2017 3:48 PM - Paradox: I cant tell
Jan 2, 2017 3:48 PM - Paradox: my entire point was that realism is fucking stupid
Jan 2, 2017 3:48 PM - Paradox: you're the one using the realism argument
Jan 2, 2017 3:48 PM - Avatarix: YOU are using this argument - B
Jan 2, 2017 3:48 PM - Paradox: The fuck are you smoking
Jan 2, 2017 3:48 PM - Avatarix: E weapons are advanced hence they are quiet
Jan 2, 2017 3:49 PM - Paradox: "Yes, Paradox realism isn't a good argument in a videogame. So let guns with small calibres sound like heavy calibre weapons"
Jan 2, 2017 3:49 PM - Paradox: Wasnt that sarcastic?
Jan 2, 2017 3:49 PM - Paradox: you used a smiley
Jan 2, 2017 3:49 PM - Paradox: which made it sound like pure sarcasm
Jan 2, 2017 3:50 PM - Avatarix: was it?
Jan 2, 2017 3:51 PM - Avatarix: hey, im just bumping a stupid thread made of stupid mistake that is pushing for changing the sounds with no need to just for change
Jan 2, 2017 3:51 PM - Paradox: Im not sure, but seeing you said it, and yer a sarcastic **** it;d be very probable
Jan 2, 2017 3:51 PM - Paradox: btw why is the shoutbox getting moderated more than the forum threads lol
Jan 2, 2017 3:51 PM - Avatarix: yeah, we even have god damn Off Topic subforum if you didnt know
Jan 2, 2017 3:52 PM - Avatarix: mr staff
Jan 2, 2017 3:53 PM - Avatarix: i feel like im going to be perma& here too beacuse im not constructive
Jan 2, 2017 4:09 PM - Señor_Awesome: It's fair if shoutbox moderated more imo because it is literally the first thing somebody sees when they visit these forums
Jan 2, 2017 4:12 PM - Lazybum: Some would say it's an honest experince of the empires forum
Jan 2, 2017 4:12 PM - Señor_Awesome: Yes but I thought we were trying to hide that under sheets so when somebody pulls them back they could at least be a little surprised
Jan 2, 2017 6:25 PM - complete_: shut up bitch!
Jan 2, 2017 7:17 PM - Ranger: bichhhh
Jan 2, 2017 119 PM - Señor_Awesome: I looked at the empires server list and it actually made me kind of sad... 19 players on NUBS and all these other servers sitting empty
Jan 2, 2017 11:56 PM - Kidpaler: One of them is vanilla, one of them is practice, and one of them is bots. Kinda like old Empires where there would be one server with players.... I can hardly think of a time that there were multiple servers with players that wasnt a big event
Jan 2, 2017 11:59 PM - Kidpaler: Its a lot better than a couple years ago where 5v5 was considered high pop
Jan 3, 2017 12:11 AM - Señor_Awesome: in the in-game browser (which I haven't used for years) you can only see those servers and 'Wired_4fun's Memehouse' but in the steam server browser I also see ModRiot and Anitalink... which are running older versions now
Jan 3, 2017 12:19 AM - Kidpaler: Yea, those are old versions. Wired's one he setup to help me test my map which is still broken :/ if anyone wants to help me with that I'd appreciate it.
Jan 3, 2017 2:27 AM - flasche: whats broken?

 

Jan 3, 2017 at 7:54 AM - Kidpaler: It crashes when you switch off the map. Not when you are loading the map, not when you are playing the map, but after the map is finished it crashes trying to go to another map.
Jan 3, 2017 at 112 AM - vipervicki: hi destroyer..server is up

Jan 4, 2017 4:21 PM - flasche: there were people playing yesterday
Jan 4, 2017 4:45 PM - A-z-K: Whats broken? I didnt notice anything when I played yesterday
Jan 4, 2017 4:50 PM - flasche: someone said salvo homing would be broken
Jan 4, 2017 4:50 PM - flasche: idk tho, i didnt research it after he told me that
Jan 4, 2017 4:52 PM - flasche: but damn it will take a while to get used to the new sounds. i hope DT change them for the better
Jan 4, 2017 4:54 PM - flasche: also vicki you know what really kills empires, the server browser which is no longer available directly out of game. you got to open the library then click view -> servers. or am i missing something?
Jan 4, 2017 5:05 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: you're missing RPGs flying through tanks
Jan 4, 2017 5:06 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: escort is great fun now, BE meds can literally run circles around enemies as long as they stay away from stickies and 9 mines
Jan 4, 2017 5:06 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: and playing from behind trying to take out mediums sieging you is A++
Jan 4, 2017 5:06 PM - vipervicki: not many have been playing
Jan 4, 2017 5:07 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: disagree
Jan 4, 2017 5:07 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: http://steamcharts.com/app/17740
Jan 4, 2017 5:08 PM - vipervicki: average player count 10
Jan 4, 2017 5:09 PM - vipervicki: not alot to me
Jan 4, 2017 5:10 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: while i agree, thep atch has brought back some players
Jan 4, 2017 5:10 PM - vipervicki: I wonder if that 10 includes pires
Jan 4, 2017 5:11 PM - vipervicki: patches always bring bacl players..for a few days..curiosity seekers then they leave again..its how empires has always been
Jan 4, 2017 5:11 PM - vipervicki: back*
Jan 4, 2017 5:12 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: why yes of course, but the increase is there
Jan 4, 2017 5:12 PM - vipervicki: right now 7 playing and that includes pires
Jan 4, 2017 5:13 PM - vipervicki: so actually 6
Jan 4, 2017 5:17 PM - vipervicki: when players come back and stay I will consider that an increase.
Jan 4, 2017 6:09 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: well judging by the longer-term trend either some of them ARE staying, or more people are coming by: http://steamcharts.com/app/17740#3m
Jan 4, 2017 6:09 PM - Ranger: IDK WHAat you're talking about. I can still see all Empires servers in the steam browser
Jan 4, 2017 6:40 PM - Neoony: @flasche go steam settings - interface - set taskbar preferences - and there set it to show servers
Jan 4, 2017 6:40 PM - Neoony: https://i.gyazo.com/21bb181e309c39eb3434192ccd1c6d1c.png
Jan 4, 2017 6:41 PM - Neoony: And yeah, Gren has his second hand crippled
Jan 4, 2017 6:42 PM - Neoony: RPG misses like 80% of the time
Jan 4, 2017 6:42 PM - Neoony: I mean that it passes through vehicles
Jan 4, 2017 6:42 PM - Neoony: Guided or not
Jan 4, 2017 6:43 PM - Neoony: I might have actually like 3 occasions when it happened with mortar too, but not too sure there
Jan 4, 2017 6:43 PM - Neoony: had*
Jan 4, 2017 6:49 PM - Neoony: oh and btw, I believe https://steamdb.info/app/17740/graphs/ should be more accurate than steamcharts...it seems to update MUCH more often
Jan 4, 2017 6:50 PM - Neoony: oh, and it has nice notes about the patches on the graphs
Jan 4, 2017 6:56 PM - vipervicki: yeah at times my settings change and the server option is gone so I do what neoony mentioned and recheck it.
Jan 4, 2017 6:56 PM - vipervicki: not sure why he gets unchecked though
Jan 4, 2017 6:56 PM - Neoony: hmm doesnt dissapear for me
Jan 4, 2017 6:56 PM - vipervicki: it not he lol
Jan 4, 2017 6:56 PM - vipervicki: has for me several times
Jan 4, 2017 6:57 PM - Neoony: I actually remember how you told me about the setting
Jan 4, 2017 6:57 PM - vipervicki: hehe yup
Jan 4, 2017 6:57 PM - Neoony: been fine since
Jan 4, 2017 6:57 PM - vipervicki: and someone told me jsut forgot who
Jan 4, 2017 6:57 PM - vipervicki: in fact jsut the other day it was gone again
Jan 4, 2017 6:57 PM - vipervicki: had to recheck it
Jan 4, 2017 6:57 PM - Neoony: yeah, someone....I knew who but also forgot
Jan 4, 2017 6:58 PM - vipervicki: lol
Jan 4, 2017 6:58 PM - vipervicki: doesnt matter as long as we know now
Jan 4, 2017 6:58 PM - Neoony: I knew you said someone told you, and you told me
Jan 4, 2017 6:58 PM - vipervicki: and we can pass it on when needed
Jan 4, 2017 6:58 PM - Neoony:
Jan 4, 2017 6:58 PM - vipervicki: lol k
Jan 4, 2017 6:59 PM - vipervicki: ya know what sux?

Jan 4, 2017 7:03 PM - vipervicki: ya know what sux worse than that by a million?
Jan 4, 2017 7:04 PM - vipervicki: I lsoe both of my dogs had to say goodbye to one july 30 and my other 2 days ago..no dogs now and it hurts like hell
Jan 4, 2017 7:04 PM - Neoony: what? D:

Jan 4, 2017 7:09 PM - vipervicki: yeah communtiy is too toxic for me and im bored with the mpas
Jan 4, 2017 7:10 PM - Neoony: usually when I had time it was noone in
Jan 4, 2017 7:10 PM - vipervicki: cant stand the crap they pull in server
Jan 4, 2017 7:10 PM - vipervicki: not to mention the forums lol
Jan 4, 2017 7:10 PM - Neoony: heh
Jan 4, 2017 7:10 PM - Neoony: one worse than the other
Jan 4, 2017 7:11 PM - vipervicki: yeah its very low population msot of the time now except weekends
Jan 4, 2017 7:11 PM - vipervicki: very true
Jan 4, 2017 7:11 PM - vipervicki: or events bring people to play
Jan 4, 2017 7:12 PM - Neoony: how was the 17th december pug?
Jan 4, 2017 7:12 PM - Neoony: was my birthday D:
Jan 4, 2017 7:12 PM - vipervicki: i dont play those kinds of pugs
Jan 4, 2017 7:12 PM - vipervicki: oooo happy birthday!
Jan 4, 2017 7:12 PM - Neoony: you guys make one pug and its on my birthday
Jan 4, 2017 7:12 PM - vipervicki: im not good enough and prefer pugs that are not so rgnaized like we used to have
Jan 4, 2017 7:13 PM - vipervicki: these pugs now are more like vet pugs we used to have
Jan 4, 2017 7:13 PM - Neoony: yeah, not much point in trying to organize much with the current playerbase I would say
Jan 4, 2017 7:13 PM - vipervicki: and i dont feel like being yelled at my team so I dont play these pugs
Jan 4, 2017 7:13 PM - vipervicki: im a decent engi tho not great but decent
Jan 4, 2017 7:14 PM - vipervicki: i prefer the opne pugs people knew the time and place and everyone joined..no one picked sides etc
Jan 4, 2017 7:14 PM - vipervicki: the oens lazy does, which is good im not saying no but they are more for vets
Jan 4, 2017 7:14 PM - Neoony: yeah
Jan 4, 2017 7:15 PM - vipervicki: not newbies or mediocre players like me
Jan 4, 2017 7:15 PM - Neoony: I dont exactly enjoy overorganized pugs with too many vets
Jan 4, 2017 7:15 PM - Neoony: its just rushing or something like that
Jan 4, 2017 7:15 PM - vipervicki: i think we shud have the other kind too we used to have both kinds
Jan 4, 2017 7:15 PM - Neoony: too much play to win
Jan 4, 2017 7:15 PM - vipervicki: when viper and epic were around
Jan 4, 2017 7:15 PM - vipervicki: servers that is
Jan 4, 2017 7:16 PM - vipervicki: exactly
Jan 4, 2017 7:16 PM - vipervicki: i dont need that pressure lol
Jan 4, 2017 7:16 PM - Neoony: yeah well, we had more people who had bigger clue what to do and such
Jan 4, 2017 7:16 PM - vipervicki: yeah
Jan 4, 2017 7:26 PM - Neoony: hmm, I wonder how the bots are doing
Jan 4, 2017 7:26 PM - Neoony: I noticed its still in the old version
Jan 4, 2017 7:27 PM - Neoony: So I guess devs dont intend to make them be able to spawn again in new versions
Jan 4, 2017 7:27 PM - Neoony:
Jan 4, 2017 7:29 PM - Neoony: Dont even have the old version to try it
Jan 4, 2017 7:40 PM - vipervicki: misfire needs to do that hes the one coding the bots
Jan 4, 2017 7:40 PM - vipervicki: and running the bot server
Jan 4, 2017 7:51 PM - Neoony: wait but the default bots got broken with an update
Jan 4, 2017 7:52 PM - Neoony: thats why he is running old version
Jan 4, 2017 7:52 PM - Neoony: I tryed everything to make them spawn in newer ones
Jan 4, 2017 7:52 PM - Neoony: back then you could just set them to mimic and they would spawn
Jan 4, 2017 7:53 PM - Neoony: So I believe he is wasting his time if devs wont help him with that
Jan 4, 2017 7:54 PM - Neoony: which is what Iam waiting for so that I could try the custom bots I wanted to try
Jan 4, 2017 7:58 PM - Neoony: as misfire is messing with a different kind of custom bots than I wanted
Jan 4, 2017 7:59 PM - Neoony: I just wouldnt bother doing it in older version, if they dont intend to fix the bots
Jan 4, 2017 8:00 PM - Neoony: at least I never seen devs mention anything about bots
Jan 4, 2017 8:01 PM - Neoony: So kudos to him for trying
Jan 4, 2017 81 PM - vipervicki:
Jan 5, 2017 2:23 AM - Lazybum: Hmm, pugs.
Jan 5, 2017 2:24 AM - Neoony: yum yum
Jan 5, 2017 2:24 AM - Lazybum: Yeah I did have one in the pipe line, but I suddenely have to work weekends so I dunno when I can squeeze a pug in
Jan 5, 2017 2:25 AM - Lazybum: I do agree that epopel joining whatever team is fun, at least for me, but with the way things are currently I feel like the matches get terribly unbalanced
Jan 5, 2017 2:25 AM - Lazybum: so it's less fun to actually play
Jan 5, 2017 2:26 AM - Neoony: just a little bit worse than ever before
Jan 5, 2017 2:29 AM - Neoony: sometimes idk if its because of rather no brains or the game balance
Jan 5, 2017 21 AM - Lazybum: at least in pubs I notice newer players stacking on to one side, with the current pugs being open it might be a similar effect
Jan 5, 2017 21 AM - Lazybum: can't say for certain though
Jan 5, 2017 22 AM - Lazybum: One thing I do know with picking teams is that captains usually go for capable squad leads, I think that has a tremndous impact on balance
Jan 5, 2017 22 AM - Neoony: How was the pug on 17th december?
Jan 5, 2017 22 AM - Lazybum: slow and techinical difficulties
Jan 5, 2017 22 AM - Lazybum: but it had 2 really solid matches
Jan 5, 2017 22 AM - Neoony: and how many people?
Jan 5, 2017 23 AM - Neoony: approx?
Jan 5, 2017 23 AM - Lazybum: 46ish or somethign?
Jan 5, 2017 23 AM - Lazybum: maybe up to 52
Jan 5, 2017 23 AM - Lazybum: mr x has recordings somewhere
Jan 5, 2017 23 AM - Neoony: Was my birthday that exact day, so
Jan 5, 2017 23 AM - Lazybum: ah
Jan 5, 2017 24 AM - Neoony: what technical difficulties btw?
Jan 5, 2017 24 AM - Lazybum: well it was a birthday present, fun pug matches D:
Jan 5, 2017 24 AM - Lazybum: pug plugin had some hiccups
Jan 5, 2017 24 AM - Neoony: im somewhat tired of some of the pug server managment
Jan 5, 2017 24 AM - Neoony: oh that
Jan 5, 2017 24 AM - Neoony: allright
Jan 5, 2017 25 AM - Neoony: Shit needs to be set and tested
Jan 5, 2017 25 AM - Lazybum: last page of the plugin thread has what happened, it's really a case this couldn't have been found out until we playted a live game
Jan 5, 2017 25 AM - Neoony: yep true
Jan 5, 2017 25 AM - Lazybum: because testing can't account for 10 times the players sadly
Jan 5, 2017 29 AM - Neoony: so what happened on the "last page"?
Jan 5, 2017 29 AM - Neoony: we didnt actually had a smooth pug with the plugin yet right?
Jan 5, 2017 3:26 AM - Lazybum: It was a case of teams never switching on map change, and the picking process takes too long to do it every round
Jan 5, 2017 3:27 AM - Señor_Awesome: For one thing, no need to pick every round. Teams not switching was a problem, though. Wish it hadn't collapsed for the third game, despite several players having already left
Jan 5, 2017 3:27 AM - Lazybum: It did remember who was on what team on map change, it just didnt sqap them
Jan 5, 2017 3:27 AM - Señor_Awesome: that was my only complaint
Jan 5, 2017 3:27 AM - Lazybum: Yeah I collasped it on purpose when it changed to a map i didn't set it to
Jan 5, 2017 3:28 AM - Lazybum: and it didn't even change teams either
Jan 5, 2017 3:28 AM - Lazybum: I didn't think anyone wanted to play on the same side for the third time
Jan 5, 2017 3:28 AM - Lazybum: if it did that at least I would have been fine with a canyon round
Jan 5, 2017 3:28 AM - Señor_Awesome: it just meant two good rounds were topped off with a godawful stack
Jan 5, 2017 3:28 AM - Lazybum: yeaa, thought I might have been able to kinda make it less awful
Jan 5, 2017 3:29 AM - Lazybum: if I forced auto assign, but I kinda had a meh feeling
Jan 5, 2017 3:29 AM - Lazybum: after hearing so many complaints
Jan 5, 2017 3:29 AM - Lazybum:
Jan 5, 2017 3:29 AM - Señor_Awesome: Don't worry, due to the randomization, auto assign results in stack about as often as it doesn't
Jan 5, 2017 3:49 AM - Ranger: Can you detonate mines with your head?
Jan 5, 2017 3:49 AM - Polyesta: Yes.
Jan 5, 2017 3:50 AM - Ranger: Does your head walk?
Jan 5, 2017 3:55 AM - Señor_Awesome: Does yours not?
Jan 5, 2017 3:58 AM - Lazybum: I take mine off and kick it, safely detonate those mines
Jan 5, 2017 3:59 AM - Neoony: lol
Jan 5, 2017 4:00 AM - Neoony: 9 mine

 

Jan 5, 2017 4:03 AM - Neoony: I gotta try
Jan 5, 2017 4:14 AM - Neoony: oh, well it seems to load
Jan 5, 2017 4:14 AM - Neoony: u guys got some spare GPU power while playing empires?
Jan 5, 2017 4:16 AM - Neoony: lets make a reshade preset
Jan 5, 2017 4:17 AM - Neoony: its super easy with this new reshade gui
Jan 5, 2017 4:24 AM - Neoony: seems I cant use few effects :/
Jan 5, 2017 4:29 AM - Neoony: Oh, they just hide from me, lol
Jan 5, 2017 40 AM - Polyesta: I got a 980.
Jan 5, 2017 40 AM - Polyesta: 8 core
Jan 5, 2017 43 AM - Polyesta: whoops I misread the question cause I glanced. LMFAO
Jan 5, 2017 43 AM - Polyesta: whoops I misread the question cause I glanced. LMFAO
Jan 5, 2017 4:43 AM - Neoony: hmm, I mean if empires looks so bad, we could make it nicer with this
Jan 5, 2017 5:47 AM - duke: At some point I made wreck meshes for the buildings and I seem to recall them being in game - does anyone know why they were removed?
Jan 5, 2017 5:54 AM - Ranger: =o
Jan 5, 2017 6:02 AM - duke: Are any devs on?
Jan 5, 2017 6:09 AM - complete_: duke i was playing in late 2007 early 2008 and i do not remember brenodi building wreck meshes for be being available models, only on nf
Jan 5, 2017 6:09 AM - duke: ok, maybe they never made it in
Jan 5, 2017 6:10 AM - complete_: i know there were a few vehicle ones though. it'd be weird if there was some that existed and they were somehow removed but the nf ones stayed
Jan 5, 2017 6:11 AM - duke: this is from 2006 so thats odd
Jan 5, 2017 6:12 AM - duke: omg sandbag models from 2003
Jan 5, 2017 6:23 AM - Neoony: hmm, I just made my empires look recent
Jan 5, 2017 6:25 AM - D.D.D. Destroyer: best you can hope for at this hour is a community contributor, hi what's up
Jan 5, 2017 6:25 AM - complete_: i am terrified to see what 2003 sandbag models look like
Jan 5, 2017 6:25 AM - Neoony: damn bmp screenshots
Jan 5, 2017 6:26 AM - complete_: wait im supposed to see a screenshot?
Jan 5, 2017 6:26 AM - Neoony: in a bit
Jan 5, 2017 6:26 AM - duke: they're blobby..
Jan 5, 2017 6:28 AM - duke: im thinking of redoing the buildings a decade later, so let me ask you this
Jan 5, 2017 6:28 AM - Neoony: daamn, the reshade is messing things up now D: I knew I shouldnt alt tab
Jan 5, 2017 6:29 AM - duke: a) Should there be a second version of the wall that is crouch height, b) should the BE and NF barracks be the same height
Jan 5, 2017 60 AM - duke: guys i've got a 10 hour flight, i've got to draw something
Jan 5, 2017 61 AM - D.D.D. Destroyer: im not sure what to sat about a, but in regards to b the current consensus is that they should be of similar height
Jan 5, 2017 61 AM - duke: ok
Jan 5, 2017 63 AM - complete_: yes to a! its actually smaller when built now because they changed the start height to make it lower
Jan 5, 2017 63 AM - Neoony: https://postimg.org/gallery/ihbo78uw
Jan 5, 2017 63 AM - Neoony: only few random pics
Jan 5, 2017 64 AM - Neoony: and i completely overloaded it with shaders
Jan 5, 2017 64 AM - duke: originally, those smaller walls in Crossroads were meant to be a second wall type
Jan 5, 2017 65 AM - Neoony: but you can have all the lens flares and such...Would be better to make a video
Jan 5, 2017 66 AM - complete_: you mean those ramps? or am i forgetting about something else
Jan 5, 2017 66 AM - complete_: oh god the shaders!
Jan 5, 2017 67 AM - Neoony: could totally improve some of the empires graphics
Jan 5, 2017 68 AM - Neoony: plenty of space for the gpu in empires
Jan 5, 2017 69 AM - flasche: it looks like 2 days on speed or smthg lol
Jan 5, 2017 69 AM - flasche: but more fx would be neat
Jan 5, 2017 6:40 AM - Neoony: I know
Jan 5, 2017 6:40 AM - Neoony: Iam just messing around with it
Jan 5, 2017 6:40 AM - Neoony: but there is loads to do
Jan 5, 2017 6:40 AM - flasche: the grass looks nice tho
Jan 5, 2017 6:40 AM - Neoony: and newest reshade has such awesome gui
Jan 5, 2017 6:40 AM - Neoony: its totally easy
Jan 5, 2017 6:41 AM - Neoony: wait ima try upload one of the short vids when i was messing with the tiltshift
Jan 5, 2017 6:41 AM - flasche: also duke a. would be awesome
Jan 5, 2017 6:42 AM - flasche: b. is a necessity
Jan 5, 2017 6:42 AM - Neoony:
Jan 5, 2017 6:43 AM - Neoony: need to set up a bit better recorder though
Jan 5, 2017 6:43 AM - complete_: anyways i gotta head to bed or else im gonna be as tired as i was today. night!
Jan 5, 2017 6:43 AM - Neoony: why didnt i thought of this sooner
Jan 5, 2017 6:43 AM - Neoony: I keep doing that to different games
Jan 5, 2017 6:43 AM - Neoony: never thought of empires
Jan 5, 2017 6:44 AM - flasche: yeah tilt shift is a nice effect
Jan 5, 2017 6:44 AM - Neoony: vid is 1920x1072 wait for youtube to process
Jan 5, 2017 6:44 AM - flasche: but not for gameplay i guess
Jan 5, 2017 6:44 AM - Neoony: should get atleast 720p
Jan 5, 2017 6:44 AM - Neoony: well a little fps goes down
Jan 5, 2017 6:45 AM - Neoony: but I totally didnt optimize, quite the opposite
Jan 5, 2017 6:45 AM - Neoony: you can have many effects which dont strain that much
Jan 5, 2017 6:46 AM - flasche: idk what you mean with 720p ytube tells me its 1080p
Jan 5, 2017 6:46 AM - Neoony: oh yea?
Jan 5, 2017 6:46 AM - Neoony: I only had 320p
Jan 5, 2017 6:47 AM - flasche: shrug
Jan 5, 2017 6:47 AM - Neoony: whoops, accidentally uploaded other 5 vids
Jan 5, 2017 6:50 AM - Neoony: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLW1Ar_9unpnTLf8xO2lcJl_fAuQGSmbt9
Jan 5, 2017 6:50 AM - Neoony: but most of them are even from earlyer
Jan 5, 2017 6:50 AM - Neoony: not much interesting
Jan 5, 2017 6:52 AM - flasche: the 3rd one (the one which looks like its on a CRT) is awesome
Jan 5, 2017 6:53 AM - Neoony: yeah
Jan 5, 2017 6:53 AM - Neoony: Almost like looking from a helmet
Jan 5, 2017 6:53 AM - Neoony: and the hud then looks less 2d
Jan 5, 2017 6:54 AM - flasche: almost like looking through a surveilance system, except for that those dont use CRTs anymore either
Jan 5, 2017 6:54 AM - flasche:
Jan 5, 2017 6:55 AM - Neoony:
Jan 5, 2017 7:12 AM - Neoony: damn now I feel like videos
Jan 5, 2017 7:12 AM - Neoony: next 3 minutes vid coming up, presenting many effects
Jan 5, 2017 7:15 AM - D.D.D. Destroyer: Speaking of videos, i have audio recording hardware now, gonna need help recording more tutorials when i come home from uni
Jan 5, 2017 7:15 AM - Neoony: well now you can do it with shaders
Jan 5, 2017 7:15 AM - Neoony: this can look so awesome
Jan 5, 2017 7:22 AM - Neoony: hmm used another recorder, seems like youtube took some toll off this vid
Jan 5, 2017 7:22 AM - Neoony: colors are quite poor
Jan 5, 2017 7:22 AM - Neoony:
Jan 5, 2017 7:23 AM - Neoony: gotta figure out the recording better
Jan 5, 2017 7:23 AM - Neoony: been a long time
Jan 5, 2017 7:26 AM - flasche: yep, that looks pretty much like after 3days of partying
Jan 5, 2017 7:26 AM - Neoony: probably the motion blur
Jan 5, 2017 7:27 AM - Neoony: gotta make some cool preset
Jan 5, 2017 7:28 AM - D.D.D. Destroyer: googlw youtube encoding guidelines?
Jan 5, 2017 7:29 AM - Neoony: yeah thats np, just dont wanna bother now
Jan 5, 2017 71 AM - Neoony: Iam actually trying the ReLive which is built into the AMD Crimson...My GPU still seems to handle recording so much better...definitely cant strain CPU when recording especially in empires
Jan 5, 2017 71 AM - Neoony: can really only set bitrate there
Jan 5, 2017 72 AM - Neoony: normally I would use sony vegas
Jan 5, 2017 72 AM - Neoony: to render
Jan 5, 2017 103 AM - Neoony: Made a preset on the new slaughtered, the map looks cool with the shaders
Jan 5, 2017 103 AM - Neoony: http://steamcommunity.com/id/neoonyx/screenshots/
Jan 5, 2017 103 AM - Neoony: yeah, Iam gonna love that tiltshift effect
Jan 5, 2017 11:05 AM - Neoony:
Jan 5, 2017 11:05 AM - Neoony: heh
Jan 5, 2017 11:14 AM - Neoony: lets implement reshade into empires, make screenshots and put it on steam :D
Jan 5, 2017 11:14 AM - Neoony: people wont be as scared of it :D
Jan 5, 2017 2:23 PM - flasche: a bit less blur
Jan 5, 2017 2:27 PM - Neoony: wait so the bot server isnt running some old version of empires?
Jan 5, 2017 2:27 PM - Neoony: wtf, I swear I was getting an error joining just few days ago
Jan 5, 2017 2:27 PM - Neoony: now iam in
Jan 5, 2017 20 PM - Neoony: wow
Jan 5, 2017 20 PM - Neoony: I just got first time ever in empires killed by a bot
Jan 5, 2017 20 PM - Neoony: thats weird
Jan 5, 2017 29 PM - Neoony: funny, I still thought they will be even more clueless than that
Jan 5, 2017 2:40 PM - Neoony: could be used for some infantry map....like 3vs20
Jan 5, 2017 2:40 PM - Neoony: or just defense, while they keep attacking you
Jan 5, 2017 2:50 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: lazybuuum we need to talk
Jan 5, 2017 2:53 PM - Neoony: too lazy D:
Jan 5, 2017 3:11 PM - Neoony: well, I keep getting stuck on downloading parachute_carbon.vvd on bots server, when it restarts
Jan 5, 2017 3:18 PM - vipervicki: nah the bots are good aim
Jan 5, 2017 3:18 PM - vipervicki: he had to lower their level they were too good lol
Jan 5, 2017 3:19 PM - Neoony: yeah
Jan 5, 2017 3:20 PM - Neoony: so he did figure out how to make them spawn in current version?
Jan 5, 2017 3:20 PM - Neoony: strange cause just few days ago I was just getting errors connecting to the server
Jan 5, 2017 3:20 PM - vipervicki: for this last update.dunno but since one before..yes
Jan 5, 2017 3:20 PM - Neoony: so I thought its still running old
Jan 5, 2017 3:20 PM - vipervicki: havent tlaked to him since this sound update
Jan 5, 2017 3:20 PM - Neoony: then I gotta know how D:
Jan 5, 2017 3:21 PM - vipervicki: lol
Jan 5, 2017 3:21 PM - Neoony: lol, I gotta finally get some contact on him
Jan 5, 2017 3:21 PM - vipervicki: hes working so hard casue everytime they mess with empires it sets him back
Jan 5, 2017 3:21 PM - vipervicki: good
Jan 5, 2017 3:21 PM - Neoony: yeah, can imagine that
Jan 5, 2017 3:25 PM - Neoony: but the bots are better than I expected
Jan 5, 2017 3:26 PM - Neoony: Wont forget my first time getting killed by a bot in empires....and they actually destroyed rax right after that
Jan 5, 2017 3:27 PM - Neoony: But I could imagine there could be something like...more or less, an idle map...where you would have to for example defend a place, lets say 3v20 and they would just keep coming in
Jan 5, 2017 3:27 PM - Neoony: might actually be fun...especially when not many playing...or even just for practice
Jan 5, 2017 3:29 PM - Avatarix: well, if we would be able to set up an autobalance script for nuclear
Jan 5, 2017 3:29 PM - Avatarix: so that BE will have like 3 players less
Jan 5, 2017 32 PM - Neoony: Just copy and cut the pug plugin
Jan 5, 2017 35 PM - Polyesta: Instead they should just make a game mode where bots attack a base, and you can defend it. I joined several times with bot's and its completely pointless, and extremely unfun. I could literally stand and wave infront of one and they still can't even shoot me cause the server lags so bad. Anyways, the reshade plugin indeed makes Empires a little more visually appealing.
Jan 5, 2017 36 PM - Neoony: hmm or just https://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?p=978806
Jan 5, 2017 37 PM - Neoony: I mean thats what I meant....few players defending a place...and a horde of bots attacking
Jan 5, 2017 37 PM - Neoony: Comeon, you gotta little bit get on their level to actually have fun with them
Jan 5, 2017 38 PM - Neoony: Its already a miracle that they even exist
Jan 5, 2017 39 PM - Polyesta: I could definitely see some gamemode like that which would allow players to play for fun while majority of the small communitys offline, that would make alot of fun out of the boring sh** at the moment.
Jan 5, 2017 39 PM - Neoony: yeah
Jan 5, 2017 3:40 PM - Neoony: Guess one day soon, they might actually replace us
Jan 5, 2017 3:40 PM - Neoony: And empires will never ever die
Jan 5, 2017 3:40 PM - Neoony:
Jan 5, 2017 3:41 PM - Polyesta: lmfao.. (all the servers are closing down, the bot's have a gofund me) I'd usually be around the bots level when I'm shitfaced. But, since the new year's. Pol pol, quit drinking.. to many forums with drunken rants and sterf. Pissing off community's
Jan 5, 2017 3:42 PM - Neoony:
Jan 5, 2017 3:44 PM - Polyesta: My dreams this morning were crushed by someone saying my backpack flamethrower tank looked like a super soaker. (drowns himself in booze)
Jan 5, 2017 3:51 PM - flasche: i like how the mine damage thread turned from its actual topic over toxic community (is it really so toxic, i think most of you are actually rather nice) to surrender and map votes
Jan 5, 2017 3:51 PM - flasche: empires forums at its best
Jan 5, 2017 3:51 PM - flasche: its no good thread without excessive derailment
Jan 5, 2017 3:52 PM - Paradox: When the thread derails you know its gun be good
Jan 5, 2017 3:53 PM - flasche: i wonder if there even is a single thread which stuck to the topic
Jan 5, 2017 3:57 PM - Neoony: Derail the derail
Jan 5, 2017 3:57 PM - Neoony: fire with fire
Jan 5, 2017 3:57 PM - Neoony: lul
Jan 5, 2017 3:59 PM - flasche: would a derailed derailed thread be on track again?
Jan 5, 2017 3:59 PM - Neoony: many just pretend to be toxic...and many just pretend to be toxic to fit in
Jan 5, 2017 3:59 PM - Neoony: in empires forums logic, sure
Jan 5, 2017 4:02 PM - flasche: i love this forums
Jan 5, 2017 4:02 PM - flasche: best thing on the intertubes
Jan 5, 2017 4:02 PM - Neoony: :D
Jan 5, 2017 4:03 PM - Polyesta: The forums are brutal, its literally savage out here.
Jan 5, 2017 4:03 PM - Polyesta: Hide yo kids, hide yo wife, cuz they raping evrybody out hure
Jan 5, 2017 4:03 PM - flasche: i must be a savage then, i feel at home
Jan 5, 2017 4:04 PM - flasche: the only thing that bugs me is that empty still has more posts than me even tho he didnt post in years
Jan 5, 2017 4:04 PM - flasche: lol
Jan 5, 2017 4:05 PM - Neoony: lol XD
Jan 5, 2017 4:05 PM - Polyesta: I seen some dude literally get his legs chopped off ina thread and he was dragged off, he never came back.
Jan 5, 2017 4:06 PM - Neoony: Actually, how many posts do I have? D:
Jan 5, 2017 4:06 PM - Neoony: never checked

Jan 5, 2017 4:07 PM - Neoony:
Jan 5, 2017 4:07 PM - Polyesta: I still wonder how some dudes have over 9,000.
Jan 5, 2017 4:08 PM - Neoony: But I was just a quiet reader first few years
Jan 5, 2017 4:08 PM - flasche: 9years
Jan 5, 2017 4:09 PM - Polyesta: The only guy that likes the funny shit, or stuff in general like me is neoony no one ever likes in this forum.
Jan 5, 2017 4:09 PM - flasche: the worst thing about that many posts is that i cant see my first post
Jan 5, 2017 4:10 PM - flasche: it was something about how OP tanks are
Jan 5, 2017 4:10 PM - Polyesta: neoony's a fucking whore, I see his likes everywhere.
Jan 5, 2017 4:10 PM - flasche: i think
Jan 5, 2017 4:10 PM - Neoony:
Jan 5, 2017 4:10 PM - Neoony: anyways, I think there might be some issue with some very old posts
Jan 5, 2017 4:11 PM - Neoony: some threads non existent, search searching weird, often nothing comes up to me from long past
Jan 5, 2017 4:11 PM - Polyesta: I think the OP tank threads still up, it has quite thee amount of pages if thats the one you're speaking of.
Jan 5, 2017 4:11 PM - Neoony: I mean, there was some issue where they had to rebuild the index or something
Jan 5, 2017 4:11 PM - flasche: i doubt it, its from 9 years ago
Jan 5, 2017 4:11 PM - flasche: even was on another forum software
Jan 5, 2017 4:12 PM - Polyesta: well if it was on a different forum software, that's why you can't find it. I'm not a web dev, but this is BB I think
Jan 5, 2017 4:12 PM - Neoony: no

Jan 5, 2017 4:12 PM - flasche: xenoforo
Jan 5, 2017 4:13 PM - complete_: "toxicity" doesnt imply that people are calling each other literally psychotic all the time. it just means that theres negative energy that sometimes gets taken out on new players
Jan 5, 2017 4:13 PM - Polyesta: Thats why its so shitty! (jking)
Jan 5, 2017 4:13 PM - Neoony: but there was issues when indexes were falling apart
Jan 5, 2017 4:13 PM - Neoony: think that was some reaching capacity of hosting issues
Jan 5, 2017 4:13 PM - flasche: yes i know that it sometimes is bad on the server complete
Jan 5, 2017 4:14 PM - flasche: but on the forums?
Jan 5, 2017 4:14 PM - Polyesta: My first game I ever played veterans where blowing blood vessels screaming at new players, I was screamed at to change a class, so I did, but reverted back to make them even more pissed.
Jan 5, 2017 4:14 PM - Neoony: I mean, its quite shitty....
Jan 5, 2017 4:14 PM - Neoony: being specific with searching? you can forget...issues? we had plenty
Jan 5, 2017 4:15 PM - Neoony: And I was gonna go mad writing and formatting this reshade topic, because it just does whatever it wants with colors and such, if you ever dare to touch it
Jan 5, 2017 4:15 PM - Paradox: how much posts do you have flasche

Jan 5, 2017 4:45 PM - flasche: didnt we agree on that before?
Jan 5, 2017 4:45 PM - flasche: derailing a derailed thread brings it back on track.
Jan 5, 2017 4:46 PM - Neoony: right
Jan 5, 2017 4:47 PM - Neoony: wow
Jan 5, 2017 4:48 PM - Neoony: I only got 3 friends who played empires last 2 weeks
Jan 5, 2017 4:48 PM - Neoony: that must be bad lol
Jan 5, 2017 4:48 PM - Neoony: 80% of my friendlist from empires
Jan 5, 2017 4:50 PM - Neoony: that must be something odd
Jan 5, 2017 4:50 PM - Neoony: I mean even security didnt play last 2 weeks<
Jan 5, 2017 4:50 PM - Neoony: ?
Jan 5, 2017 4:50 PM - Neoony: nah something wrong
Jan 5, 2017 4:51 PM - Neoony: https://i.gyazo.com/85f0c30abc247851a168306713d1a45f.png
Jan 5, 2017 4:51 PM - Neoony: that makes no sense
Jan 5, 2017 4:53 PM - flasche: its all DTs new sounds fault!
Jan 5, 2017 4:53 PM - flasche:
Jan 5, 2017 4:53 PM - Xyaminou: I was going to say, "why am I not in there", but then I realised I actually haven't played Empires in over two weeks.
Jan 5, 2017 4:54 PM - flasche:
Jan 5, 2017 4:54 PM - flasche: i also have thexa and smithy on that list neoony
Jan 5, 2017 4:54 PM - Neoony: Friends who have played Empires in the last 2 weeks _
Jan 5, 2017 4:54 PM - Neoony: 2 of them got 0 played last 2 weeks
Jan 5, 2017 4:54 PM - complete_: lmao
Jan 5, 2017 4:55 PM - Neoony: And I dont own the game, but Iam not sure if that wasnt a thing since long time
Jan 5, 2017 4:55 PM - flasche: yeah tama has 0h even tho he played empires in the last 2 weeks for me aswell
Jan 5, 2017 4:56 PM - Xyaminou: It is definitely bugged though.
Jan 5, 2017 4:56 PM - flasche: maybe below 1h doesnt count?
Jan 5, 2017 4:56 PM - flasche: just started once to test and called it a day
Jan 5, 2017 4:56 PM - Neoony: it should note he executed it
Jan 5, 2017 4:56 PM - Xyaminou: here is mine:
Jan 5, 2017 4:56 PM - Neoony: last played
Jan 5, 2017 4:56 PM - Xyaminou: shouldn't be so empty
Jan 5, 2017 4:57 PM - flasche: its probably just rounded down
Jan 5, 2017 4:57 PM - Xyaminou: steam is just derping, ignore it.
Jan 5, 2017 4:57 PM - Neoony: isnt it suspicious that its only devs showing there?
Jan 5, 2017 4:57 PM - flasche: tho its true
Jan 5, 2017 4:57 PM - flasche: i should be on the list aswell, i played yesterday
Jan 5, 2017 4:58 PM - flasche: somethings fishy
Jan 5, 2017 4:58 PM - flasche: creeper is no dev is he?
Jan 5, 2017 4:58 PM - Neoony: he somewhat is
Jan 5, 2017 4:58 PM - Xyaminou: he is
Jan 5, 2017 4:58 PM - Neoony: mostly yeah
Jan 5, 2017 4:59 PM - flasche: oh
Jan 5, 2017 4:59 PM - Neoony: its a conspiracy
Jan 5, 2017 4:59 PM - flasche: were after something big here
Jan 5, 2017 5:00 PM - flasche: devs try to make the game appear barren so they dont have to work on it lol
Jan 5, 2017 5:01 PM - Neoony: ahahah
Jan 5, 2017 5:02 PM - flasche: there actually are hundreds of servers with thousands of players out there we just dont get to see them.
Jan 5, 2017 5:04 PM - Neoony: I wonder why is there still the old logo of empires, when you looking friends played in last 2 weeks
Jan 5, 2017 5:05 PM - Smithy: Something is fucky with steam community, check global achievements too
Jan 5, 2017 5:06 PM - Xyaminou: your shaders post is... shady...
Jan 5, 2017 5:06 PM - Xyaminou: let's try it.
Jan 5, 2017 5:06 PM - Paradox: thecreeper is an empires dev?
Jan 5, 2017 5:06 PM - Paradox: no fucking way
Jan 5, 2017 5:06 PM - Smithy: anyone can be an empires dev
Jan 5, 2017 5:07 PM - Smithy: I just pretend to know what I'm doing
Jan 5, 2017 5:07 PM - Smithy: You'll notice that runs common with past/present devs
Jan 5, 2017 5:07 PM - Polyesta: Fuck youy Neoony
Jan 5, 2017 5:07 PM - Polyesta: and you're damn squirt gun
Jan 5, 2017 5:07 PM - Z100000M: your*
Jan 5, 2017 5:07 PM - flasche: lol
Jan 5, 2017 5:08 PM - Neoony: whoa x
Jan 5, 2017 5:08 PM - Neoony:
Jan 5, 2017 5:08 PM - Xyaminou: what do I select as a game?
Jan 5, 2017 5:08 PM - Smithy: He's not wrong though
Jan 5, 2017 5:08 PM - Xyaminou: just hl2.exe?
Jan 5, 2017 5:09 PM - Polyesta: (Z10000M dies and gets dragged off)
Jan 5, 2017 5:09 PM - Smithy: The X15 flamethrower is a water pistol of sorts
Jan 5, 2017 5:09 PM - Neoony: folder with hl2
Jan 5, 2017 5:09 PM - Smithy: it's built using pressure washer components
Jan 5, 2017 5:09 PM - Polyesta: Tru
Jan 5, 2017 5:09 PM - Xyaminou: well it wants an .exe so I'm assuming hl2.exe in Empires directory
Jan 5, 2017 5:09 PM - Smithy: Google FPSRussia X15
Jan 5, 2017 5:09 PM - Neoony: ye
Jan 5, 2017 5:10 PM - Smithy: demonstrates it in action if you have not seen it
Jan 5, 2017 5:10 PM - Neoony: just read the goddamn post
Jan 5, 2017 5:10 PM - Neoony: I couldnt be any more detailed
Jan 5, 2017 5:10 PM - Xyaminou: I am reading the post, you never said what to select in it.
Jan 5, 2017 5:10 PM - Neoony: But alteast someone is interested
Jan 5, 2017 5:11 PM - Neoony: https://i.gyazo.com/9852b1e05ba62bc3a7166710e4c60a7e.png
Jan 5, 2017 5:11 PM - Xyaminou: "do you wish to get collection from github"
Jan 5, 2017 5:11 PM - Xyaminou: yes or no?
Jan 5, 2017 5:11 PM - Neoony: in ya face
Jan 5, 2017 5:11 PM - Neoony: yea
Jan 5, 2017 5:11 PM - Neoony: :D
Jan 5, 2017 5:11 PM - Xyaminou: that doesn't say select hl2.exe as far as I'm concerned.
Jan 5, 2017 5:12 PM - Neoony: ah
Jan 5, 2017 5:12 PM - Neoony: just
Jan 5, 2017 5:12 PM - flasche: how many .exe files do you have in that directory?
Jan 5, 2017 5:12 PM - Neoony: nvm
Jan 5, 2017 5:12 PM - Neoony:
Jan 5, 2017 5:12 PM - Neoony:
Jan 5, 2017 5:13 PM - Neoony: But I will add the github thing
Jan 5, 2017 5:13 PM - Neoony: that I forgot
Jan 5, 2017 5:13 PM - Xyaminou: well "install" could mean anything, I didn't know "select the game" stands for "install"
Jan 5, 2017 5:13 PM - Polyesta: @Smithy I know how the X15 fires, however for the zombie mod I'm making the developers are looking for a more unique FT, for the game. I used the x15 for some reference.
Jan 5, 2017 5:13 PM - Xyaminou: it could be doing a number of things.
Jan 5, 2017 5:13 PM - Polyesta: I looked at FPSR videos though its sick lmfao
Jan 5, 2017 5:13 PM - Xyaminou: when I read install I actually copied the .exe I downloaded from the website into Empires folder, because it could have simply installed itself wherever it is.
Jan 5, 2017 5:14 PM - flasche: the wording is suboptimal true
Jan 5, 2017 5:14 PM - Polyesta: I'm personally questioning how they are going to implement this into the source engine though
Jan 5, 2017 5:15 PM - Neoony: you can also read installation instructions from their website if you really need it
Jan 5, 2017 5:16 PM - flasche: pfff readin is so 20th century
Jan 5, 2017 5:16 PM - Neoony: heh
Jan 5, 2017 5:17 PM - complete_: lol paradox didnt know creeper is a dev
Jan 5, 2017 5:17 PM - Neoony: wow
Jan 5, 2017 5:17 PM - Xyaminou: why read something when I can read something else
Jan 5, 2017 5:17 PM - Neoony: u actually had to pull it from up there
Jan 5, 2017 5:19 PM - Xyaminou: is it going to take that long to load every time?
Jan 5, 2017 5:19 PM - Neoony: Just xyaminou, expect that you might not get as good results on other maps
Jan 5, 2017 5:19 PM - Neoony: probably
Jan 5, 2017 5:20 PM - Neoony: how long is long
Jan 5, 2017 5:20 PM - Neoony: 10-15 sec max
Jan 5, 2017 5:20 PM - Xyaminou: don't know, I didn't have a watch to time it
Jan 5, 2017 5:20 PM - Xyaminou: more like 30s
Jan 5, 2017 5:20 PM - Xyaminou: no seeing any difference on nuclear
Jan 5, 2017 5:20 PM - Xyaminou: at all
Jan 5, 2017 5:20 PM - Neoony: potato?
Jan 5, 2017 5:21 PM - Neoony: did you even did all the steps
Jan 5, 2017 5:21 PM - Neoony: read the damn topic goddamit
Jan 5, 2017 5:21 PM - Xyaminou: I though I did
Jan 5, 2017 5:21 PM - Xyaminou: not potato, 5 year old, and Empires usually loads in under a second
Jan 5, 2017 5:21 PM - Neoony: from the first moment I knew you didnt
Jan 5, 2017 5:22 PM - Neoony: if you only installed it then it shouldnt even be working
Jan 5, 2017 5:22 PM - Neoony: cause there is extra step for source games
Jan 5, 2017 5:22 PM - Neoony: and then you need to get my preset
Jan 5, 2017 5:23 PM - Neoony: paste it over it
Jan 5, 2017 5:23 PM - Xyaminou: nah it's okay
Jan 5, 2017 5:23 PM - Xyaminou: just needed to open the GUI
Jan 5, 2017 5:23 PM - Xyaminou: and select the stuff
Jan 5, 2017 5:23 PM - Neoony: then u dont have my preset though
Jan 5, 2017 5:23 PM - Neoony: iam guessing
Jan 5, 2017 5:23 PM - Xyaminou: overly bright brightness
Jan 5, 2017 5:23 PM - Xyaminou: yes I do
Jan 5, 2017 5:23 PM - Neoony: did you move all the stuff into bin folder?
Jan 5, 2017 5:23 PM - Xyaminou: but I still had to select it in-game
Jan 5, 2017 5:23 PM - Xyaminou: ya
Jan 5, 2017 5:24 PM - Neoony: if you had to select it it means it wasnt loaded
Jan 5, 2017 5:24 PM - Neoony: wait
Jan 5, 2017 5:24 PM - Neoony: select effects? or the preset file?
Jan 5, 2017 5:24 PM - Xyaminou: it is now
Jan 5, 2017 5:24 PM - Xyaminou: the .ini
Jan 5, 2017 5:24 PM - Xyaminou: wasn't selected
Jan 5, 2017 5:24 PM - Neoony: if too bright try disabling hdr
Jan 5, 2017 5:25 PM - Neoony: its quite different on other maps
Jan 5, 2017 5:25 PM - Neoony: I only spend like half a day with this thing
Jan 5, 2017 5:26 PM - Neoony: get a screenshot uploaded
Jan 5, 2017 5:26 PM - Xyaminou: meh
Jan 5, 2017 5:26 PM - Xyaminou: it's not for me
Jan 5, 2017 5:27 PM - Xyaminou: just makes everything hurts my eyes, even with HDR off.
Jan 5, 2017 5:27 PM - Neoony: needs to be tweaked
Jan 5, 2017 5:27 PM - Xyaminou: how do I uninstall/disable?
Jan 5, 2017 5:27 PM - Xyaminou: maybe
Jan 5, 2017 5:27 PM - Neoony: remove the dll
Jan 5, 2017 5:29 PM - Neoony: quite a problem that empires has many different thematics on maps
Jan 5, 2017 5:29 PM - Neoony: so probably wont be easy to find a single setting
Jan 5, 2017 5:29 PM - Xyaminou: meh, Empires will be empires
Jan 5, 2017 51 PM - Neoony: well maybe I will make some subtle preset just for you
Jan 5, 2017 51 PM - Xyaminou: cool
Jan 5, 2017 52 PM - Neoony: I mean, there usualy isnt as many effects used in the presets as I used
Jan 5, 2017 52 PM - Neoony: Its literally just my first 3-4 first hours ever going deep into it and actually making my own preset
Jan 5, 2017 54 PM - Xyaminou: I usually avoid custom shaders in games to be honest, especially FPS.
Jan 5, 2017 55 PM - Neoony: well yeah
Jan 5, 2017 56 PM - Neoony: although it can also be quite good at making things more visible
Jan 5, 2017 56 PM - Neoony: which is also why many use it in FPS
Jan 5, 2017 58 PM - Neoony: But hell, for making a video, screenshots or so in empires
Jan 5, 2017 58 PM - Neoony: hell yeah
Jan 5, 2017 58 PM - Xyaminou: hackers...
Jan 5, 2017 58 PM - Xyaminou: yeah screenshot and videos, sure, but for day to day games, nope.
Jan 5, 2017 58 PM - Neoony: little vibrancy wont hurt you
Jan 5, 2017 59 PM - Polyesta: The only dude who hacks here is Neoony
Jan 5, 2017 59 PM - Polyesta: Ban his ass
Jan 5, 2017 59 PM - Neoony: https://www.google.nl/search?q=csgo...UICCgB&biw=1920&bih=882#imgrc=cdt_NIKt_jtzeM:
Jan 5, 2017 59 PM - Neoony: thats what people usually use
Jan 5, 2017 5:40 PM - Polyesta: data:image/jpeg;base64,/9j/4AAQSkZJRgABAQAAAQABAAD/2wCEAAkGBxQSEhMSExMVEhMXGBcVGBgYExgVGBUXFRgaFxUTFRYYHSggGBolHRUVITEhKCkrMC4uFx8zODMsNygtLisBCgoKDg0OFxAQGyslHR0tLS0tLS0tListLS0tLSsrKy0tLS0tLSsrLS0tLS0tLS0tLS0tLS0tLS0rLSstLS0tLf/AABEIAOwA1gMBIgACEQEDEQH/xAAcAAEAAQUBAQAAAAAAAAAAAAAABwIDBAUGCAH/xAA/EAACAQICBwUECQIFBQAAAAAAAQIDEQQhBQYSMUFRYQcTInGBFDJCkSNScoKSobHB0TPwQ1Nic6I0g7LC4f/EABkBAQEBAQEBAAAAA
Jan 5, 2017 5:40 PM - Polyesta:
Jan 5, 2017 5:40 PM - Neoony: in some ways, you could actually improve your FPS a lot
Jan 5, 2017 5:40 PM - Xyaminou: keep trying...

 

Jan 5, 2017 at 5:40 PM - Polyesta: wtf my hammer pics not working,
Jan 5, 2017 at 5:40 PM - Xyaminou: my FPS are fine.
Jan 5, 2017 at 5:45 PM - Neoony: modding is never easy
Jan 5, 2017 at 6:18 PM - Neoony: well, desert map looks really awful on that preset
Jan 5, 2017 at 8:27 PM - NekoBaron: oh look I get banned for ghosting, Ive never seen anyone banned for ghosting, guess security is having a kiddy fit.
Jan 5, 2017 at 8:29 PM - NekoBaron: also ban time of -1436 mins? it should have expired yesterday.
Jan 5, 2017 at 81 PM - NekoBaron: who needs rules when you can make up shit right?
Jan 5, 2017 at 8:51 PM - complete_: neko is trying to be a martyr like guns and whamo but what he doesnt realize is that catface isnt around to hardcode ban him
Jan 5, 2017 at 8:52 PM - complete_: wait how did you get your ban time? was sourcebans added back in or something?
Jan 5, 2017 at 8:53 PM - Sgt.Security: Maaaybe Creeper made it so that you can see your ban time when you rejoin, but of course I can think maliciously as well.
Jan 5, 2017 at 8:53 PM - Sgt.Security: I'll confirm with Creeper.
Jan 5, 2017 at 8:55 PM - Avatarix: damn, now we are in the same boat
Jan 5, 2017 at 8:55 PM - complete_: you do realize i literally posted a person who was banned in the code of empires for saying something mean about a server owner
Jan 5, 2017 at 8:56 PM - NekoBaron: isnt mentioning that name bannable?
Jan 5, 2017 at 8:57 PM - Avatarix: The One?
Jan 5, 2017 at 8:57 PM - complete_: sorry. "the liar in our midst"
Jan 5, 2017 at 8:58 PM - complete_: security is acting offended on behalf of someone who i dont have a problem with and i cleared up the misunderstanding with. you'd think he would be more careful with not starting shit
Jan 5, 2017 at 8:59 PM - NekoBaron: see now I dont even have a clue what your talking about, misunderstanding? who? what?
Jan 5, 2017 at 9:00 PM - complete_: thecreeper. the misunderstanding was that theres an asshole screwing with the rcon so we cant have sourcebans
Jan 5, 2017 at 9:01 PM - NekoBaron: whats that got to do with security making up false reasons to ban me?
Jan 5, 2017 at 9:02 PM - complete_: not everything is about you
Jan 5, 2017 at 9:03 PM - NekoBaron: how bans work at nubs, get upset, ban for x, write reason y, refuse and avoid talking about it.
Jan 5, 2017 at 9:18 PM - vipervicki: neko is lucky I wasnt there Im itchin to perma ban him w/o appeal
Jan 5, 2017 at 9:28 PM - NekoBaron: I dont think youll ever top the best ban reason I got in the past which was reason team killer and I was on spectate for that match.
Jan 5, 2017 at 9:28 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: fairly certain whamo isn't hardcode banned from the game, just from NUBS and the main community groups
Jan 5, 2017 at 9:28 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: also for the record, people do get banned for ghosting
Jan 5, 2017 at 9:29 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: team killer is a pre-entered reason that can be chosen when banning via the plugin menu; it usually stands for griefing as there's no such option there
Jan 5, 2017 at 90 PM - NekoBaron: I joined the team with least players, they had no comm for like 2 mins, other people joined the team at the same time including another admin who was online, only I get banned.
Jan 5, 2017 at 90 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: i can't speak about the incident, i wasn't present at the time
Jan 5, 2017 at 92 PM - NekoBaron: of course, which is why people are always complaining about bans, because you cant do fuck all or even get a straight answer once banned.
Jan 5, 2017 at 92 PM - vipervicki: they should change the name of the shoutbox to the whinebox
Jan 5, 2017 at 93 PM - NekoBaron: see vicki dont want to talk about bans, change the subject more, whine about how hard it was to run a server in the old days more vicki please, we need stories of ye olde times.
Jan 5, 2017 at 94 PM - vipervicki: neko head my other statemtn and take it as a warning
Jan 5, 2017 at 94 PM - vipervicki: heed*
Jan 5, 2017 at 95 PM - vipervicki: thye may tolerate your shit tlak and insult son the forums but I have had it with you..dont push me
Jan 5, 2017 at 96 PM - NekoBaron: vicki serriously why the fuck are you still around, you say it was a nightmare to admin a server and yet here you are still an admin in a stressful position of power, shoving your nose into everything, we going to talk about unfair bans yet? course not because no one does.
Jan 5, 2017 at 97 PM - vipervicki: u can go back to gmod and try selling your maps on other forums again since your so unhappy here
Jan 5, 2017 at 97 PM - vipervicki: why are u around?
Jan 5, 2017 at 98 PM - NekoBaron: avoiding the unfair bans still, keep going.
Jan 5, 2017 at 98 PM - vipervicki: so wheres your server?
Jan 5, 2017 at 98 PM - NekoBaron: you play dodgeball much vicki?
Jan 5, 2017 at 99 PM - vipervicki: so how many maps did you try and sell?
Jan 5, 2017 at 9:40 PM - vipervicki: you seem like the pro at dodgeballstill no answer about the server you were putting up
Jan 5, 2017 at 9:40 PM - complete_: i think he was ddd since no one has corrected me and catface's post a year ago seemed pretty clear
Jan 5, 2017 at 9:41 PM - vipervicki: about what complete?
Jan 5, 2017 at 9:41 PM - vipervicki: about guns?
Jan 5, 2017 at 9:42 PM - vipervicki: nah hes not hardcore banned
Jan 5, 2017 at 9:42 PM - vipervicki: only a few are and on is pcwidzan the others i nevr heard of
Jan 5, 2017 at 9:42 PM - vipervicki: one*
Jan 5, 2017 at 9:42 PM - vipervicki: i think only 6 people are but dont know any of them cpet pc
Jan 5, 2017 at 9:42 PM - vipervicki: cept
Jan 5, 2017 at 9:43 PM - NekoBaron: vicki using the old spam the chatbox trick again.
Jan 5, 2017 at 9:44 PM - vipervicki: then you would hate chatting with trickster
Jan 5, 2017 at 9:45 PM - vipervicki: if it bothers u theres an x in the upper right hadn corner..click it
Jan 5, 2017 at 9:48 PM - complete_: surprising that hes not hard code banned since i figured banishment from servers and forum meant hard code. i havent seen him join outside servers either
Jan 5, 2017 at 9:50 PM - vipervicki: dont think thats a criteria for hard core banning but dunno
Jan 5, 2017 at 9:50 PM - vipervicki: we all know why pc was and its very justified
Jan 5, 2017 at 9:50 PM - vipervicki: the others i nevr heard of
Jan 5, 2017 at 9:51 PM - vipervicki: was proably before my time in empires
Jan 5, 2017 at 9:52 PM - vipervicki: im surprised slayer wasnt
Jan 5, 2017 at 9:53 PM - complete_: the other guys just shut down the game for awhile by griefing alot. it was pretty tame (think they were from around montreal)
Jan 5, 2017 at 9:54 PM - vipervicki: ah ok i never knew them
Jan 5, 2017 at 9:54 PM - vipervicki: but slayer shud have been
Jan 5, 2017 at 9:54 PM - vipervicki: pc's cohort
Jan 5, 2017 at 9:55 PM - vipervicki: i dont evne think mr die is hardcore banned but i dont recall exactly
Jan 5, 2017 at 9:55 PM - complete_: yep
Jan 5, 2017 at 10:01 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: he isn't
Jan 5, 2017 at 10:01 PM - vipervicki: didnt think so
Jan 5, 2017 at 10:02 PM - vipervicki: destoryer are we done with wurm?
Jan 5, 2017 at 10:02 PM - vipervicki: destroyer
Jan 5, 2017 at 11:52 PM - A-z-K: Goddamnit Neko you are such a thundercunt it makes my eyebrows ache
Jan 6, 2017 at 12:23 AM - Señor_Awesome: Yeah my eyebrows typically ache after I encounter a thundercunt. But I think for a different reason...
Jan 6, 2017 at 12:46 AM - D.D.D. Destroyer: you're not supposed to interact with them via eyebrows
Jan 6, 2017 at 12:49 AM - Señor_Awesome: I like to get naughty
Jan 6, 2017 at 1:26 AM - vipervicki: lol u guys r funny
Jan 6, 2017 at 1:26 AM - vipervicki: and azk i totally agree
Jan 6, 2017 at 2:02 AM - vipervicki: nice 38 on nubs
Jan 6, 2017 at 2:04 AM - VulcanStorm: Nice to know we have players back
Jan 6, 2017 at 2:07 AM - vipervicki: yup hope they stay around
Jan 6, 2017 at 3:48 AM - CRITAWAKETS: GAW got banned?
Jan 6, 2017 at 3:48 AM - CRITAWAKETS: Dear god, i feel like by association i am related to 2 banned people of empires
Jan 6, 2017 at 3:48 AM - CRITAWAKETS: and by that i am a scum myself.
Jan 6, 2017 at 3:48 AM - CRITAWAKETS: I cant even react anymore
Jan 6, 2017 at 3:49 AM - CRITAWAKETS: If anyone checks my friends list, they will find "The One"
Jan 6, 2017 at 3:49 AM - CRITAWAKETS: thats not his name but i dont want to have people immediately attack me for being slight friends with him
Jan 6, 2017 at 3:50 AM - Paradox: mrdie
Jan 6, 2017 at 3:50 AM - Paradox: you are a fucking retard
Jan 6, 2017 at 3:50 AM - CRITAWAKETS: fuck
Jan 6, 2017 at 3:50 AM - Paradox: if you have him as a friend
Jan 6, 2017 at 3:50 AM - Paradox: and if you are actually friends with him
Jan 6, 2017 at 3:50 AM - Paradox: then you might be an even bigger fucking retard
Jan 6, 2017 at 3:50 AM - Paradox: not even joking
Jan 6, 2017 at 3:51 AM - CRITAWAKETS: i also have Guns and Whamo on my friends list
Jan 6, 2017 at 3:51 AM - CRITAWAKETS: I should probably continue purging my friends list if i want to maintain playing this game again
Jan 6, 2017 at 3:52 AM - Sgt.Security: Guns isn't that bad, I see no problem having him on the list if you don't have issue with the game, but Mrdie is like
Jan 6, 2017 at 3:52 AM - Sgt.Security: Another level.
Jan 6, 2017 at 3:52 AM - Sgt.Security: with the guy*
Jan 6, 2017 at 3:52 AM - Z100000M: someone who wanted to get vicky persecudted by the FBI
Jan 6, 2017 at 3:52 AM - Z100000M: not bad
Jan 6, 2017 at 3:52 AM - Z100000M: haha
Jan 6, 2017 at 3:53 AM - CRITAWAKETS: Well Sgt.Security.
Jan 6, 2017 at 3:53 AM - CRITAWAKETS: I have issues with the game, but that is more of different reasons.
Jan 6, 2017 at 3:55 AM - CRITAWAKETS: Stuff like "Sounds were better before the update" and "This is unbalanced"
Jan 6, 2017 at 3:56 AM - Sgt.Security: Yeah z00m I might have lost that, I just know he's a liar and shit.
Jan 6, 2017 at 3:57 AM - Z100000M: he wanted me to give him info on vicky because of his beef with vicky which ended in his ban
Jan 6, 2017 at 3:58 AM - Z100000M: also there is no problem with you having people on sf crit
Jan 6, 2017 at 3:59 AM - Z100000M: when i tried defending GAW at first because of the lack of proof he gifted me games
Jan 6, 2017 at 3:59 AM - Z100000M: not sure where im going with this but
Jan 6, 2017 at 4:01 AM - Sgt.Security: Honesty I think it's more about "would the guy use you to reach what he wants" than "what he did exactly"
Jan 6, 2017 at 4:01 AM - vipervicki: guns and whacko imo
Jan 6, 2017 at 4:01 AM - CRITAWAKETS: To be honest...
Jan 6, 2017 at 4:02 AM - CRITAWAKETS: I wonder if this is even a game anymore or a dictatorship.
Jan 6, 2017 at 4:02 AM - CRITAWAKETS: ... Im going down the same path as all the other problem users am i not?

 

Jan 6, 2017 4:21 AM - CRITAWAKETS: Well, its hard to swallow 20 pills at once because of all the mental disorders you have.
Jan 6, 2017 4:21 AM - CRITAWAKETS: So i just dont take meds
Jan 6, 2017 4:24 AM - vipervicki: why 20?
Jan 6, 2017 4:25 AM - vipervicki: in any case i hope you feel better
Jan 6, 2017 4:25 AM - CRITAWAKETS: thats just an overexaggeration
Jan 6, 2017 4:25 AM - vipervicki: k
Jan 6, 2017 4:26 AM - CRITAWAKETS: then again i dont know how many mental disorders i have but its possibly close
Jan 6, 2017 4:43 AM - complete_: maybe you should take advantage of the fact that you get free healthcare unlike the 300 million people below you and swallow your fucking pills
Jan 6, 2017 4:57 AM - spobely: how do i become a turrent
Jan 6, 2017 5:01 AM - Señor_Awesome: I'm starting down the path. Last year I had 2-3 inbox alerts about posts I had made! Soon I shall be as persecuted as the rest of my brethren
Jan 6, 2017 5:02 AM - complete_: spobely: the answer to that question is in yourself. find your truth. "follow your bliss" ~ joseph campbell
Jan 6, 2017 5:05 AM - Kidpaler: https://sli.mg/34sfqO
Jan 6, 2017 5:05 AM - Kidpaler: How does it look for an hours work?
Jan 6, 2017 5:07 AM - Kidpaler: Mainly thats at complete since hes mapped a lot
Jan 6, 2017 50 AM - complete_: better than me. lmao
Jan 6, 2017 51 AM - complete_: the real question is can a tank navigate it? or can they get out if they fall in
Jan 6, 2017 5:41 AM - Sgt.Security: I don't think even an AFV can, I imagined myself driving and those boxes ahead would block me.
Jan 6, 2017 5:50 AM - Kidpaler: Its infantry map
Jan 6, 2017 5:50 AM - Kidpaler: Well, will be.
Jan 6, 2017 5:50 AM - Kidpaler: Its gonna be a trench network with a "no mans land" but will have cover, and then more trenches
Jan 6, 2017 5:50 AM - Kidpaler: With a tad bit of forest and maybe a destroyed buiilding or two in nomans land
Jan 6, 2017 5:51 AM - flasche: i was just going to ask
Jan 6, 2017 5:51 AM - flasche: i see lots of props, on a comm map you might run into limits
Jan 6, 2017 5:51 AM - Kidpaler: Yea, this is going to be a small infantry map
Jan 6, 2017 5:53 AM - flasche: kinda reminds me on that one bf1 map
Jan 6, 2017 5:53 AM - flasche: except that it obviously isnt the same quality, but if you could do that in source youd be a magican
Jan 6, 2017 5:54 AM - Kidpaler: lol
Jan 6, 2017 5:54 AM - Kidpaler: I want to make underground bunkers... but that is SO much work
Jan 6, 2017 5:55 AM - flasche: because?
Jan 6, 2017 5:56 AM - Kidpaler: Well, the way I would do it is a lot of displacements and just creating the entrance to it is hard
Jan 6, 2017 5:57 AM - flasche: as long as you do it on the grid, you can cut displacements after modifying them
Jan 6, 2017 5:57 AM - flasche: so you can just cut out the entrance afterwards
Jan 6, 2017 5:57 AM - Kidpaler: Hmmm, I guess I could do the hollow/carve thing
Jan 6, 2017 5:58 AM - flasche: i guess the bunker itself should be brushes
Jan 6, 2017 5:58 AM - flasche: unless you want a rounded ceiling, but it needs to be enclosed in brushes too for visibility reasons
Jan 6, 2017 5:59 AM - flasche: also dont use carve
Jan 6, 2017 5:59 AM - flasche: youre not jephir
Jan 6, 2017 5:59 AM - flasche: hahahaa
Jan 6, 2017 5:59 AM - Kidpaler: I don't exactly get the cut tool
Jan 6, 2017 5:59 AM - Kidpaler: Otherwise I'd probably use it more
Jan 6, 2017 6:00 AM - Kidpaler: Sometimes it cuts, sometimes it doesnt. Haven't exactly figured out why, but I've been managing
Jan 6, 2017 6:00 AM - flasche: the white thing stays
Jan 6, 2017 6:00 AM - flasche: if you press cut again you can have it either left, right, or both
Jan 6, 2017 6:00 AM - flasche: the remaining mesh cannot be too complex
Jan 6, 2017 6:00 AM - Kidpaler: Oh?
Jan 6, 2017 6:00 AM - Kidpaler: Okay
Jan 6, 2017 6:00 AM - flasche: and always make sure to cut to the grid
Jan 6, 2017 6:01 AM - flasche: and sadly you can only cut in 2 dimensions
Jan 6, 2017 6:01 AM - flasche: if you need more complex shapes you also need to use the vertex manipulation tool
Jan 6, 2017 6:01 AM - Kidpaler: Why can't hammer be more complex :/
Jan 6, 2017 6:01 AM - Kidpaler: And allow for more complex things to be done
Jan 6, 2017 6:01 AM - flasche: bc its ancient
Jan 6, 2017 6:02 AM - flasche: and yes, hammer sucks badly
Jan 6, 2017 6:02 AM - Kidpaler: Someone out there has updated it, someone has had to.
Jan 6, 2017 6:02 AM - Kidpaler: There has to be a publicly updated version.
Jan 6, 2017 6:02 AM - flasche: you wished
Jan 6, 2017 6:03 AM - flasche: theres that tools for source 2 tho. but we aint on source 2
Jan 6, 2017 6:03 AM - flasche: is an updated hammer version with some nice features
Jan 6, 2017 6:03 AM - Kidpaler: Is source 2 even public yet?
Jan 6, 2017 6:03 AM - flasche: i dont think the engine is
Jan 6, 2017 6:03 AM - flasche: dota2 is source 2 tho
Jan 6, 2017 6:04 AM - flasche: but i dont really get why youd want source 2 anyways.
Jan 6, 2017 6:04 AM - flasche: you = the general you
Jan 6, 2017 6:04 AM - Kidpaler: Cause... then Empires could... uhh... claim its on Source 2
Jan 6, 2017 6:05 AM - flasche: hehe
Jan 6, 2017 6:06 AM - flasche: id rather have empires on something like unreal - or actually unreal
Jan 6, 2017 6:06 AM - flasche: but mapping is different there, and the mapping tools in unreal are kinda worse than hammer
Jan 6, 2017 6:06 AM - flasche: but you do a lot in 3rd party programms like 3ds, maya or even blender
Jan 6, 2017 6:07 AM - Kidpaler: Yep, glad we have hammer.
Jan 6, 2017 6:07 AM - flasche: its just the huge visblocking blockout done in the editor - or terrain (but you can do that in 3rd party apps aswell)
Jan 6, 2017 6:08 AM - flasche: blender is so much nicer to use than hammer
Jan 6, 2017 6:08 AM - Kidpaler: I wish Hammer didn't have the entity limit though, or source itself could handle more
Jan 6, 2017 6:08 AM - flasche: different tho
Jan 6, 2017 6:08 AM - flasche: yeah its all because its just old
Jan 6, 2017 6:08 AM - flasche: no content streaming
Jan 6, 2017 6:09 AM - Kidpaler: I know, it really sucks because my Forestattack map is delayed till I get the tree models bundled together to cut that down
Jan 6, 2017 6:09 AM - flasche: so it was the entity limit fuckign you over?
Jan 6, 2017 6:10 AM - Kidpaler: I think, LorDz took a look and rendered it without entities and it worked fine
Jan 6, 2017 6:10 AM - Kidpaler: I wasn't over the limit, but for some reason it was the cause
Jan 6, 2017 6:10 AM - flasche: well the game entities also count toward the limit
Jan 6, 2017 6:10 AM - Kidpaler: I was at like 1953 out of 2000 whatever
Jan 6, 2017 6:11 AM - Kidpaler: It would crash even with 1 player
Jan 6, 2017 6:11 AM - Kidpaler: Well, on a dedicated server. On a local server it could change fine
Jan 6, 2017 6:12 AM - flasche: it didnt even look like there were that many trees on that overview you posted
Jan 6, 2017 6:12 AM - Kidpaler: There wasn't really..
Jan 6, 2017 6:13 AM - flasche: maybe you could remove half the trees, try, if it works remove the other half, and so on
Jan 6, 2017 6:13 AM - flasche: maybe its just a few bad tress for whatever reason idk
Jan 6, 2017 6:14 AM - Kidpaler: I think my hammer is also messed up, I have a weird bug where it can't do two compiles in a row.
Jan 6, 2017 6:14 AM - flasche: ah i had that aswell
Jan 6, 2017 6:14 AM - flasche: no clue what i did to make it go away
Jan 6, 2017 6:15 AM - flasche: or even if it did go away at all
Jan 6, 2017 6:15 AM - Kidpaler: I have to verify the game cache everytime I want to recompile
Jan 6, 2017 6:15 AM - flasche: oh shit, for me restarting was sufficient
Jan 6, 2017 6:15 AM - flasche: do you use the advanced compile options?
Jan 6, 2017 6:16 AM - Kidpaler: I have to otherwise it doesn't compile correctly
Jan 6, 2017 6:16 AM - flasche: and do you compile vrad with -both?
Jan 6, 2017 6:16 AM - flasche: bc that caused a lot of issues for me
Jan 6, 2017 6:16 AM - Kidpaler: Oh? No I dont
Jan 6, 2017 6:17 AM - flasche: you can duplicate the vrad entry and have one -ldr and one -hdr (and untick the 2nd for test compiles)
Jan 6, 2017 6:17 AM - flasche: but if you dont do that anyway, well, then its not the issue
Jan 6, 2017 6:18 AM - Kidpaler: ALl I want to do is make open infantry maps and Hammer hates me for it
Jan 6, 2017 6:18 AM - flasche: source was made for indoor maps
Jan 6, 2017 6:18 AM - flasche: and small outdoor areas
Jan 6, 2017 6:19 AM - flasche: you know about viscluster i assume
Jan 6, 2017 6:19 AM - flasche: its vor vvis tho
Jan 6, 2017 6:19 AM - flasche: for*
Jan 6, 2017 6:19 AM - Kidpaler: No I do not
Jan 6, 2017 6:19 AM - Kidpaler: Is it something I should look at?
Jan 6, 2017 6:20 AM - flasche: yes it cuts the vvis compile time to about null
Jan 6, 2017 6:20 AM - flasche: https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Func_viscluster
Jan 6, 2017 6:21 AM - flasche: it bundles the vis-nodes
Jan 6, 2017 6:21 AM - Kidpaler: Ah. okay
Jan 6, 2017 6:21 AM - flasche: also make sure all your bunkers and so are func_detail
Jan 6, 2017 6:21 AM - flasche: then they can be inside the viscluster
Jan 6, 2017 6:22 AM - flasche: atm you create tons and tons of visleaves
Jan 6, 2017 6:23 AM - flasche: https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Func_detail
Jan 6, 2017 6:23 AM - Kidpaler: Hmmm
Jan 6, 2017 6:23 AM - Kidpaler: Alright
Jan 6, 2017 6:24 AM - flasche: the vbsp and vvis compile times on drygulch are maybe 2 seconds
Jan 6, 2017 6:24 AM - Kidpaler: Really?
Jan 6, 2017 6:25 AM - Kidpaler: Wow...
Jan 6, 2017 6:25 AM - flasche: together
Jan 6, 2017 6:25 AM - flasche: vrad takes quite a while tho
Jan 6, 2017 6:26 AM - Kidpaler: Hell yea it does
Jan 6, 2017 6:27 AM - flasche: cant do much about it, except for raising the lightmap size, but then it has even less shadows
Jan 6, 2017 6:28 AM - Kidpaler: I want max shadows. Looks best with shadows.
Jan 6, 2017 6:28 AM - flasche: you can improve a bit if you raise it only on surfaces which do not receive shadows, but its probably not worth the work
Jan 6, 2017 6:28 AM - CRITAWAKETS: what is mapping
Jan 6, 2017 6:28 AM - flasche: baby dont hurt me
Jan 6, 2017 60 AM - flasche: id happily reduce the lightmap scale to 1 - but then you run into the next limit and the compile will fail
Jan 6, 2017 60 AM - Kidpaler: lol... I haven't even fully figured out the lighting. Haven't toyed around with it much
Jan 6, 2017 61 AM - flasche: in general the lower the lightmap scale the more crisp the shadows
Jan 6, 2017 61 AM - flasche: and it needs to be powers of 2
Jan 6, 2017 62 AM - Kidpaler: Learn something new everyday
Jan 6, 2017 62 AM - flasche: idk what "empires hammer" has it set it to, its quite large (there barely are nice shadows on any empires map)
Jan 6, 2017 62 AM - flasche: probably could cut it in half, but it will add to compile times a lot
Jan 6, 2017 62 AM - flasche: only worth it for the final compile
Jan 6, 2017 63 AM - flasche: you set it in the texture tool
Jan 6, 2017 63 AM - flasche: oh man i spent too much time in hammer lol
Jan 6, 2017 63 AM - Kidpaler: Ohhhh okay. Yea, I want this to be a nice looking map since its an infantry map
Jan 6, 2017 64 AM - Kidpaler: Hrm.... or maybe I won't worry much about the lighting and just do rainy
Jan 6, 2017 64 AM - flasche: and i didnt even explore a tenth of the entities like dz or keef
Jan 6, 2017 64 AM - flasche: or blizzerd
Jan 6, 2017 66 AM - Kidpaler: I know I can figure one thing out which I want to do, instead of having just a regular old skybox, surround the map in triggers which hurt you and eventually kill you
Jan 6, 2017 66 AM - Kidpaler: With a sound that plays to just you saying "return to combat":
Jan 6, 2017 67 AM - flasche: that should be doable, but i have absolutely no idea how
Jan 6, 2017 67 AM - flasche: it should be somthing like a trigger and a timer which then hurts you for 999hp
Jan 6, 2017 68 AM - flasche: but _shrug_
Jan 6, 2017 68 AM - flasche: im quite sure dz could tell you instantly
Jan 6, 2017 69 AM - Kidpaler: He seems like the go to man
Jan 6, 2017 69 AM - Kidpaler: Is he working with the Black mesa people?
Jan 6, 2017 69 AM - flasche: yes he definatly knows his hammer
Jan 6, 2017 6:40 AM - flasche: no idea
Jan 6, 2017 6:40 AM - Kidpaler: Im convinced he is because he is always on Black mesa and I talked with him and he knows a LOT about how they are doing the levels and such
Jan 6, 2017 6:44 AM - flasche: maybe. as said he knows his shit in hammer.
Jan 6, 2017 7:03 AM - CRITAWAKETS: man, renember when empries was going to be ported to unreal or unity?
Jan 6, 2017 7:03 AM - CRITAWAKETS: Back in 2012?
Jan 6, 2017 8:28 AM - CRITAWAKETS: Should MrDie even be trusted?
Jan 6, 2017 89 AM - Avatarix: no he shouldnt
Jan 6, 2017 10:11 AM - D.D.D. Destroyer: Anyone up for somenew map testing later today?
Jan 6, 2017 100 AM - Avatarix: i could be up for testing
Jan 6, 2017 100 AM - Avatarix: hmm
Jan 6, 2017 11:25 AM - Terminator-X29B: which time?
Jan 6, 2017 11:41 AM - Avatarix: do you thing the empires will live for te next 48,37320031298905 years?
Jan 6, 2017 11:41 AM - Avatarix: bc i will be then unbanned at nubs :D
Jan 6, 2017 11:45 AM - flasche: lol 48years
Jan 6, 2017 11:46 AM - Avatarix: yeah, i will be like 65 years then
Jan 6, 2017 11:46 AM - Avatarix: seems like a decent reason to survive for so long
Jan 6, 2017 11:46 AM - flasche: i wonder how the world looks then
Jan 6, 2017 11:46 AM - flasche: maybe its all radiated wasteland already
Jan 6, 2017 11:47 AM - flasche: and you fight rad scorpions and deathclaws
Jan 6, 2017 11:47 AM - flasche: or turned to a ghoul
Jan 6, 2017 11:47 AM - Avatarix: yeah, playing empires with other survivors when people outside vaults fight for their lives
Jan 6, 2017 11:48 AM - flasche: or maybe your just one of those scenery skeletons
Jan 6, 2017 11:48 AM - Avatarix: and The One Whose Name Shall Not Be Spelled could became a supermutant and rait the vaults in search of empires devs
Jan 6, 2017 11:48 AM - flasche: you are*
Jan 6, 2017 11:49 AM - flasche: 48 years is a long time
Jan 6, 2017 11:49 AM - Avatarix: yeah, try imagining source 2064
Jan 6, 2017 11:49 AM - flasche: i actually dont even know how long it is
Jan 6, 2017 11:50 AM - flasche: my memory goes back maybe 25years
Jan 6, 2017 11:50 AM - flasche: thats about half of it and so much happened
Jan 6, 2017 120 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: brb listening to drunk finnish metal instead of finishing map
Jan 6, 2017 126 PM - Xyaminou: what band?
Jan 6, 2017 129 PM - Xyaminou: by the way I ordered a new headset because my old one broke.
Jan 6, 2017 129 PM - Xyaminou: and this one has a microphone.
Jan 6, 2017 129 PM - Xyaminou: so supposedly I'm gonna have a better microphone soonTM.
Jan 6, 2017 12:41 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: suamenlejjona
Jan 6, 2017 12:41 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: also fml i don't have the textures i've been using and finding maps for empires is paaaain

Jan 6, 2017 2:11 PM - Avatarix: this map looks... simple?
Jan 6, 2017 2:11 PM - Avatarix: forum post when?
Jan 6, 2017 5:58 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: when it's ready for release. and yes it's super basic, almost on purpose
Jan 6, 2017 6:02 PM - CRITAWAKETS: its so basic its literally coded in BASIC
Jan 6, 2017 6:42 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: actually it's Hammer. I did my displacements three times over because of errors
Jan 6, 2017 8:02 PM - flasche: oh the joys of hammer
Jan 6, 2017 8:06 PM - NekoBaron: good displacement needs mad skills
Jan 6, 2017 8:52 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: and patience
Jan 6, 2017 8:52 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: i have none right now
Jan 6, 2017 9:08 PM - NekoBaron: ingredients for good displacement, textures, enough brushes, and yeah ll the patience...
Jan 6, 2017 9:14 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=836323815
Jan 6, 2017 10:00 PM - NekoBaron: yay I found out my day ban was extended to perma, gotta love that people can ban you from the entire game and dont need any reason other then they can.
Jan 6, 2017 11:45 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: not entire game, just one server
Jan 6, 2017 11:45 PM - Neoony: now you just need a forums ban
Jan 6, 2017 11:45 PM - Neoony: and everyone can be happy
Jan 6, 2017 11:55 PM - Neoony: anyways, the shaders thing has proven much more difficult, because it seems each map uses completely different kind of lighting, lol
Jan 6, 2017 11:55 PM - Kidpaler: Yeaaaaaaaaap
Jan 6, 2017 11:56 PM - Neoony: still can be a good thing for videos/screenshots
Jan 7, 2017 12:23 AM - D.D.D. Destroyer: can confirm the lighting thing
Jan 7, 2017 12:46 AM - Señor_Awesome: Hey D.D.D. guess what the difference between you and me is
Jan 7, 2017 12:48 AM - Señor_Awesome: when I quit the forums/game I don't make a thread about it :D
Jan 7, 2017 1:07 AM - Sgt.Security: You know what's the difference between you and me?
Jan 7, 2017 1:07 AM - Sgt.Security: You sink as a boat.
Jan 7, 2017 1:11 AM - Neoony: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=836479357
Jan 7, 2017 1:12 AM - Neoony: who even makes/uses a spray like that
Jan 7, 2017 1:15 AM - Señor_Awesome: the player 'fuck you'
Jan 7, 2017 1:15 AM - Señor_Awesome: like that's his name, and that's his spray
Jan 7, 2017 1:16 AM - Neoony: oh really?
Jan 7, 2017 1:16 AM - Neoony: oh right
Jan 7, 2017 1:16 AM - Neoony: I know which one
Jan 7, 2017 1:17 AM - Neoony: I was just thinking if this was actually aimed at the server owners/admins
Jan 7, 2017 1:17 AM - Señor_Awesome: he's used it to cover up my spray once or twice
Jan 7, 2017 1:17 AM - Señor_Awesome: so... maybe
Jan 7, 2017 1:18 AM - vipervicki: update is fooked
Jan 7, 2017 1:18 AM - vipervicki: gj
Jan 7, 2017 1:18 AM - Señor_Awesome: sad
Jan 7, 2017 1:18 AM - Neoony: ugh
Jan 7, 2017 1:19 AM - vipervicki: grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr over 40 people smashed to smithereens
Jan 7, 2017 1:19 AM - Señor_Awesome: oh dear what was it another terrorist attack
Jan 7, 2017 1:19 AM - vipervicki: i think thecreeper is trying to get a fix
Jan 7, 2017 1:19 AM - Señor_Awesome: Mr Freeze became real
Jan 7, 2017 1:19 AM - vipervicki: lol yeah
Jan 7, 2017 1:19 AM - vipervicki: terror at empires
Jan 7, 2017 1:19 AM - VulcanStorm: ?
Jan 7, 2017 1:19 AM - vipervicki: i blame mr x
Jan 7, 2017 1:20 AM - vipervicki: updated nubs now we cant join
Jan 7, 2017 1:20 AM - vipervicki: says serve ris using a newer version
Jan 7, 2017 1:20 AM - VulcanStorm: Revalidate your game cache?
Jan 7, 2017 1:20 AM - vipervicki: i restarted client and still no
Jan 7, 2017 1:20 AM - VulcanStorm: Yes... It is...
Jan 7, 2017 1:21 AM - vipervicki: creeper fixed it
Jan 7, 2017 1:21 AM - Neoony: mind any edits to your gamefiles, if you revalidate...btw
Jan 7, 2017 1:21 AM - vipervicki: can all join
Jan 7, 2017 1:21 AM - vipervicki: the devs updated server but not clients
Jan 7, 2017 1:21 AM - Neoony: if you maybe received updated sounds or so
Jan 7, 2017 1:22 AM - VulcanStorm: Ok... So 2.11.3 is on the beta branch
Jan 7, 2017 1:22 AM - Neoony: from trump
Jan 7, 2017 1:22 AM - vipervicki: its working now thecreeper fixed it
Jan 7, 2017 1:22 AM - Señor_Awesome: I only have a few edits to my gamefiles... like the squadleader.cfg
Jan 7, 2017 1:22 AM - VulcanStorm: But the released one is still 2.11.2
Jan 7, 2017 1:22 AM - Señor_Awesome: and some updated NF textures that are half bakes
Jan 7, 2017 1:47 AM - Thexa4: Sorry, I made a mistake while releasing 2.11.3, if you restart steam it should work correctly.
Jan 7, 2017 2:17 AM - Sgt.Security: It's all good now
Jan 7, 2017 3:03 AM - D.D.D. Destroyer: senor, you never quit, liar!
Jan 7, 2017 3:04 AM - D.D.D. Destroyer: 'sides, i only peaced out of the forums

Jan 7, 2017 15 PM - NekoBaron: loads empires up, oh look at the server list, bot test or nubs, so yep I consider that preety much banned from all of empires.
Jan 7, 2017 17 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: objection! my server is up right now
Jan 7, 2017 17 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: i think i forgot to change lvels though

Jan 7, 2017 1:58 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: it worked yesterdsy, looks like my local IP changed and the ports are no longer open
Jan 7, 2017 1:59 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: im not around to fix the problem though
Jan 7, 2017 2:00 PM - flasche: hi there vicki

Jan 7, 2017 3:14 PM - Avatarix: @Paradox learn me how to ninja
Jan 7, 2017 3:18 PM - Paradox: get good first trash can
Jan 7, 2017 3:20 PM - Avatarix: get a good trash can?
Jan 7, 2017 3:20 PM - Avatarix: but ninjas are black!
Jan 7, 2017 4:08 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: i think he missed a coma but it's more funny to assume not and that you do need a new trash can
Jan 7, 2017 4:09 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: i mean, mine's a paint bucket, so i guess it might help to have a new one

Jan 7, 2017 4:25 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: i forgot i turned off the lights visgroup
Jan 7, 2017 4:29 PM - NekoBaron: lighting look better in the room, shame the ceiling lacks detail or facets, maybe some support beams or vents.
Jan 7, 2017 4:46 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: that's on the list of things to do
Jan 7, 2017 4:46 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: broadly called "operation Make It Pretty"
Jan 7, 2017 4:48 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: little bit here as well: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=837031453
Jan 7, 2017 5:47 PM - vipervicki: looks good ddd
Jan 7, 2017 5:47 PM - vipervicki: u do great work
Jan 7, 2017 5:47 PM - vipervicki: nuclear is one of my fav maps
Jan 7, 2017 6:24 PM - flasche: my favorite change is that there are no sharp corners at the shooting slits (?) anymore
Jan 7, 2017 6:27 PM - flasche: also that compile without lights looks kinda cool - its probably horrible to play, but nice visually
Jan 7, 2017 8:16 PM - vipervicki: hopefully its not too dark to play
Jan 7, 2017 9:10 PM - Kidpaler: 60 people on. Nice.
Jan 7, 2017 9:17 PM - NekoBaron: I see 50, wonder how many afk.
Jan 7, 2017 9:18 PM - Smithy: always negative
Jan 7, 2017 9:18 PM - Smithy: I think about 8
Jan 7, 2017 9:19 PM - Smithy: I left like 5 mins ago
Jan 7, 2017 9:22 PM - NekoBaron: its more of a fact nowdays, at least with 50 on a handful of afks isnt too much of an issue, having a ton of afk when you only got 16 players on is when it gets a bit silly.
Jan 7, 2017 10:01 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: you leave AFKers unless server's fulll
Jan 7, 2017 10:01 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: simple
Jan 7, 2017 10:05 PM - NekoBaron: cant have everyone afk though
Jan 8, 2017 121 AM - Señor_Awesome: every time I go to do something productive there are 50 people on empires
Jan 8, 2017 121 AM - Señor_Awesome: coincidence? I think not.
Jan 8, 2017 16 AM - vipervicki: LOL
Jan 8, 2017 16 AM - vipervicki: itsa plot
Jan 8, 2017 19 AM - vipervicki: krenzo put in a hidden code w/e someone wants to do something productive the server fills up
Jan 8, 2017 2:53 AM - CRITAWAKETS: empires should get an new map
Jan 8, 2017 2:53 AM - CRITAWAKETS: de_dust2
Jan 8, 2017 2:53 AM - CRITAWAKETS: It will easily become the most played map the minute it is released
Jan 8, 2017 3:13 AM - vipervicki: have de_dust for empires
Jan 8, 2017 3:13 AM - vipervicki: not 2 tho
Jan 8, 2017 3:13 AM - vipervicki: it was awesome
Jan 8, 2017 3:14 AM - vipervicki: unfortunately when it was made for me and viper server the vehicle spawn thingy was broken and the map would crash the server at some point
Jan 8, 2017 3:15 AM - vipervicki: it was my idea t have it for empires and my friend made it for me
Jan 8, 2017 3:22 AM - CRITAWAKETS: come join NUBs
Jan 8, 2017 3:22 AM - CRITAWAKETS: we have eastborough
Jan 8, 2017 3:23 AM - vipervicki: im on the bed watching tv not on my desktop
Jan 8, 2017 3:23 AM - vipervicki: sowwy
Jan 8, 2017 32 AM - Neoony: hah, I managed to unlock the full power of reshade
Jan 8, 2017 32 AM - Neoony: it can read depth from source
Jan 8, 2017 33 AM - Neoony: now the real effects come
Jan 8, 2017 33 AM - Neoony: but totally not for multiplayer
Jan 8, 2017 3:53 AM - vipervicki: aww
Jan 8, 2017 3:54 AM - vipervicki: i dont even kno what that is

Jan 8, 2017 6:18 AM - flasche: neat
Jan 8, 2017 6:18 AM - flasche: i love DoF
Jan 8, 2017 6:19 AM - flasche: only looks a bit off for the calculator
Jan 8, 2017 6:22 AM - Neoony: totally wasnt set for it
Jan 8, 2017 6:22 AM - flasche: also is that a dark vignette or is that the texture?
Jan 8, 2017 6:22 AM - Neoony: vignette in corners
Jan 8, 2017 6:22 AM - Neoony: tons of effects tbh
Jan 8, 2017 6:23 AM - Neoony: more here
Jan 8, 2017 6:23 AM - flasche: yeah theres color correction and sharpness i think
Jan 8, 2017 6:23 AM - Neoony: http://steamcommunity.com/id/neoonyx/screenshots/
Jan 8, 2017 6:23 AM - Neoony: but I couldnt get the colors right with the new shaders
Jan 8, 2017 6:23 AM - Neoony: just gotta experiment more
Jan 8, 2017 6:24 AM - flasche: im not so much a fan over oversaturated colors
Jan 8, 2017 6:24 AM - flasche: but thats taste, cant argue about it
Jan 8, 2017 6:24 AM - Neoony: If I use depth reading from source, cant go online
Jan 8, 2017 6:24 AM - Neoony: the thing is that Iam constantly fighting AmbientLighting and it Adapting to it
Jan 8, 2017 6:25 AM - Neoony: Its like a whole cycle
Jan 8, 2017 6:25 AM - Neoony: Its somehow balancing and moving
Jan 8, 2017 6:25 AM - Neoony: but then too hard
Jan 8, 2017 6:25 AM - flasche: aww thats too bad, a DoF effect would be cool
Jan 8, 2017 6:25 AM - Neoony: some effects are weird but nice
Jan 8, 2017 6:25 AM - Neoony: gotta use r_drawvgui 0
Jan 8, 2017 6:26 AM - Neoony: and thats flagged cheat
Jan 8, 2017 6:26 AM - Neoony: or no depth and you can just go play around with colors and 2d
Jan 8, 2017 6:27 AM - Neoony: just so hard to find balance You change one thing and everything changes
Jan 8, 2017 6:27 AM - Neoony: 10-20 shaders with 8-15 settings
Jan 8, 2017 6:27 AM - Neoony: or so
Jan 8, 2017 6:29 AM - Neoony: now I need demos
Jan 8, 2017 65 AM - Kidpaler: I can send you some if you want
Jan 8, 2017 65 AM - Neoony: If they will work at this version, sure
Jan 8, 2017 66 AM - Kidpaler: I just took one today during the 25v25 games
Jan 8, 2017 12:20 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer:
Jan 8, 2017 12:56 PM - flasche: not even 10minutes
Jan 8, 2017 15 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: i shouldnt have joined it, nf in particular
Jan 8, 2017 16 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: be was all or almost all newcomers to the map and the unfamiliarity caused big issues navigating
Jan 8, 2017 17 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: which clearly indicates that before a6 comes out i need to improve visual and audio hints
Jan 8, 2017 2:19 PM - flasche: im not entirely sure if you did already, but i think you should turn that one staircase around - the one on the rooftop right when you come from BE spawn
Jan 8, 2017 2:20 PM - flasche: if you know what i mean
Jan 8, 2017 3:07 PM - Lazybum: http://www.empiresmod.com/posts/2017-04-02-patreon.html
Jan 8, 2017 3:08 PM - Lazybum: I just noticed that, makes me wonder how many forum goers missed it because everyone skips the main empires website
Jan 8, 2017 3:08 PM - Lazybum: i like how it says april 2nd 2017 though, is this a future post?
Jan 8, 2017 37 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: flasche i know which one you mean, but it works fine i think...then again, maybe, i still haven't formed my opinion on that
Jan 8, 2017 76 PM - flasche: i just think it will be easier for people to find their way down from the roof
Jan 8, 2017 9:19 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: How about signs that indicate a staircase
Jan 8, 2017 9:19 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: and other similar features
Jan 8, 2017 10:26 PM - CRITAWAKETS: 30+ players on the NUBs server right now

Jan 9, 2017 10:59 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: Wow you guys seriously play with bloom and motion blur? That'd explain a few things
Jan 9, 2017 11:07 PM - Lazybum: I dunno how they do that, hdr is broke on a few maps I think

Jan 9, 2017 11:49 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: i'm sorry it's only part of the final flag
Jan 9, 2017 11:55 PM - VulcanStorm: Does it move? Can I shoot it?
Jan 9, 2017 11:57 PM - VulcanStorm: And is that the power plant to go with the nuclear?
Jan 10, 2017 12:06 AM - D.D.D. Destroyer: I AM ONE HUNDRED PERCENT SURE IT WON'T BUDGE
Jan 10, 2017 12:07 AM - D.D.D. Destroyer: and block movement.
Jan 10, 2017 12:07 AM - D.D.D. Destroyer: that's from the control room, i retextured it (still initially) and changed the windows to be more detailed than just a glass brush (also initially)

 

Jan 10, 2017 7:46 AM - Z100000M: What youre playing without blur and hdr like valve intented you to? It makes you see better so youre a cheater
Jan 10, 2017 10:03 AM - D.D.D. Destroyer: are you still comparing removing vision obscuring particles from the game's files to changing graphical oprions in the main menu?
Jan 10, 2017 11:55 AM - Z100000M: am i comparing removing bision obstructing option to changing vision obstructing particles? yes i am
Jan 10, 2017 12:14 PM - flasche: i totally hate how materials obscure my vision so i add $alpha 0.5 to all materials
Jan 10, 2017 12:15 PM - flasche:
Jan 10, 2017 12:17 PM - flasche: does pure finally work btw?
Jan 10, 2017 12:26 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: and while we're at it, a quick tweak to have all models bright red/blue to further enhance visibility, since it's apparently all the same
Jan 10, 2017 12:27 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: of course pure doesn't work
Jan 10, 2017 12:29 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: requesting pure white mine textures to improve vision
Jan 10, 2017 120 PM - flasche: I prwfer neon green amd purple, they contrast better
Jan 10, 2017 122 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: that sounds good too
Jan 10, 2017 4:47 PM - flasche: i never realized there is an empires forum on steam aswell Oo
Jan 10, 2017 5:04 PM - Xyaminou: if you think Empiresmod.com forum is bad you'll be shocked at steam's forum
Jan 10, 2017 5:05 PM - Xyaminou: out here it's mostly contained in the feedback
Jan 10, 2017 5:19 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: whaaat? That place looks actually moderated unlike over here
Jan 10, 2017 6:14 PM - Paradox: lol? Steams forums are a shit hole of 12 year olds
Jan 10, 2017 6:18 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: the discussions there go much more civil unless JGF gets involved so i'll take that as an improvement
Jan 10, 2017 6:23 PM - Paradox: tbh though all I know of steam forums is their support, and that place is a stnking hot mess
Jan 10, 2017 6:58 PM - flasche: well i read a few threads when i found it, aside of nekos negativity i didnt notice anything particualary bad - but maybe this place here just hardend me to a point where i dont notice such things anymore?
Jan 10, 2017 8:20 PM - Kidpaler: Steam forums actually are pretty positive about this game...
Jan 10, 2017 8:20 PM - Kidpaler: At least, from what I saw.
Jan 10, 2017 82 PM - Kidpaler: Idk what I did, but I got my compile times from 40 minutes to 5 minutes for my map.
Jan 10, 2017 9:12 PM - CRITAWAKETS: root beer and then strawberry lemonade gatorade tastes horrible
Jan 10, 2017 94 PM - Lazybum: orange juice and hard cider tastes magical

 

Jan 11, 2017 at 9:01 AM - Ranger: Lighting affects compliling the most.

Jan 11, 2017 at 9:03 AM - Ranger: kill me
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:00 AM - D.D.D. Destroyer: In case of our maps, which max out the grid limit, unoptimised visleaf compiling affects it the most
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:01 AM - D.D.D. Destroyer: that being said on smaller maps like nuclear it is indeed the lighting that takes the longest
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:02 AM - flasche: i remember compiling before func_viscluster got available. we met in IRC to do distributed compiles for some maps lol
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:06 AM - flasche: too bad we never got it to work for vrad, thatd still be helpful today
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:22 AM - D.D.D. Destroyer: 7 hours to compile old SOF on a current-gen i7 hyyype
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:24 AM - flasche: wow
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:25 AM - D.D.D. Destroyer: and then varbles happened and i bet now it takes closer to 30 minutes
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:29 AM - flasche: that 7h is for a full compile?
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:29 AM - flasche: or just vrad alone?
Jan 11, 2017 at 100 AM - flasche: but the funniest part is, modern engines have nicer dynamic shadows which need no compile at all.
Jan 11, 2017 at 101 AM - flasche: tho baking lightmass in ue4 will also take its time
Jan 11, 2017 at 103 AM - flasche: btw destroyer, concerning your monitors. every time i even think about exporting them i get frustrated and postpone it. i have no sample .qc file anymore since i forgot to backup my empires-models folder when i switched to w10
Jan 11, 2017 at 104 AM - flasche: but sigh, i should finally be doing it
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:04 AM - D.D.D. Destroyer: full compile
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:04 AM - D.D.D. Destroyer: also i just pushed the subdivide displacements button and hammer froze so yay me
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:15 AM - D.D.D. Destroyer: maybe smithy can help with that
Jan 11, 2017 at 128 PM - flasche: thats normal
Jan 11, 2017 at 128 PM - flasche: depending on how many subdivs you divide it can free for quite a while
Jan 11, 2017 at 128 PM - flasche: usually it recovers again
Jan 11, 2017 at 128 PM - flasche: i once subdivided a whole map, it took a few hours
Jan 11, 2017 at 12:40 PM - flasche: freeze*
Jan 11, 2017 at 12:41 PM - flasche: and i mean "depending on how many disps you subdivide" <.<
Jan 11, 2017 at 12:42 PM - flasche: the only way to check if its really crashed or if just the gui froze is to check if ram goes up in process explorer
Jan 11, 2017 at 12:45 PM - flasche: but you can also only subdivide a bunch of disps at a time. this requires you to make "rim-displacements" tho so it keeps folowing the shape and doesnt generate pointy edges. just try it out, youll figure what i meant
Jan 11, 2017 at 12:49 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: oh nono i know what happened, it's just another minor annoyance onto the pile of problems that is hammer
Jan 11, 2017 at 1:03 PM - Ranger: What if you are dragonborn but you just don't know it yet?
Jan 11, 2017 at 18 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: trust me i think i'd notice the scales
Jan 11, 2017 at 4:10 PM - Lazybum: I don't think dragonborns had scales?
Jan 11, 2017 at 4:10 PM - Lazybum: or we talking about dnd dragonborns?
Jan 11, 2017 at 4:20 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: i automatically assumed dnd
Jan 11, 2017 at 4:29 PM - Kidpaler: https://streamable.com/h9zxv
Jan 11, 2017 at 49 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: full-compiling emp_iceberg_a2, with all issues addressed
Jan 11, 2017 at 4:40 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: wow okay that was pretty fast
Jan 11, 2017 at 5:41 PM - Kidpaler: It's a pretty basic map isn't it?
Jan 11, 2017 at 5:42 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: yeah but still, 2 minute compile
Jan 11, 2017 at 5:50 PM - Kidpaler: Destroyer, we gotta write the script for the tank scene
Jan 11, 2017 at 5:50 PM - Kidpaler: I have storyboard up to Infantry part done
Jan 11, 2017 at 5:50 PM - Kidpaler: Very... Very crudely drawn....
Jan 11, 2017 at 6:12 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: errrr
Jan 11, 2017 at 6:12 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: i'll go ahead and say yes
Jan 11, 2017 at 68 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: https://www.dropbox.com/s/apehrv85sj923hs/Screenshot 2017-01-11 19.36.54.png?dl=0
Jan 11, 2017 at 6:57 PM - Kidpaler: Looks absolutely terrible, you should delete the map and never touch Hammer again.
Jan 11, 2017 at 6:57 PM - Kidpaler: JK, looks good.
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:00 PM - Kidpaler: How many tank weapons are there in Empires? Can someone count it up?
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:01 PM - Smithy: 3
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:01 PM - Smithy: missile, shell and mg
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:01 PM - flasche: all in all? cns mls and mgs?
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:02 PM - Kidpaler: I meant Cannons, Ml's, and MG's
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:02 PM - flasche: is there an t3 version of every weapon now?
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:02 PM - Smithy: why?
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:02 PM - Smithy: they all act the same
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:02 PM - Kidpaler: Doing a storyboard for the trailer and I want to highlight all the different weapon choices during the tnak scene
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:02 PM - Kidpaler: tank*
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:03 PM - Kidpaler: They may act the same, but they are still different. Gotta highlight the small things to make it more appealing
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:03 PM - flasche: its aproximately 5 per tree, mechanical excluded
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:03 PM - flasche: maybe 6 per tree
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:03 PM - flasche: just say over 9000
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:03 PM - flasche:
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:04 PM - Kidpaler: Well... how many different combinations are possible depending on cannons + Mls+ armor + engine + MG
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:04 PM - Kidpaler: We might be able to say something ridiculous there...
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:05 PM - flasche: 26 in the last version before security added new ones
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:05 PM - flasche: https://wiki.empiresmod.com/Vehicle_Weapon_Appendix
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:05 PM - Kidpaler: Okay... and there is a 3 slot for each cannon and ML now, along with the new 2 slot rail
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:05 PM - Kidpaler: Is there a 3 slot HEMG, plasma, and Bio now?
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:05 PM - flasche: just say over 30
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:06 PM - flasche: or more than 30 - thats impressive enough
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:06 PM - Kidpaler: 30+ different tank weapons... got it
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:06 PM - flasche: i doubt anyone will count them so if its "only" 29 who will notice
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:07 PM - Kidpaler: Well, if it's anything like this forum, someone will notice the smallest inconsistency or mistake and call it out.
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:07 PM - flasche: well you can research complete and count them ingame
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:08 PM - flasche: emp_sv_research_complete 1
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:08 PM - Kidpaler: Yea... too much work. 30+ it is.
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:09 PM - Kidpaler: Alright. I have the drawings done. Too bad they may be uninterpretable, but they are done.
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:10 PM - Kidpaler: That only took... hours.
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:11 PM - Kidpaler: Hopefully Thexa can interpret my crude drawings, get a video made, then hopefully Assquatch can get the music in, we can get the sounds in the video, then bam. New trailer.
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:11 PM - flasche: Kidpaler: Well... how many different combinations are possible depending on cannons + Mls+ armor + engine + MG
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:12 PM - flasche: concerning this, if you consider the "not-sane" combinations aswell its billions
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:12 PM - Kidpaler: Yea... that number might seem unrealistic... but its big. Bigger = Better.
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:12 PM - Kidpaler: The more shocking a number is, the more people will be like "NO way, I have to see this"
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:14 PM - flasche: realistically its more like 10
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:14 PM - Kidpaler: Even more realistically, its like 3 for good combinations
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:14 PM - flasche: and during a round maybe 3-4 per chassis
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:16 PM - Kidpaler: Yea but, we aren't lying... just... stretching the truth. A lot.
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:17 PM - VulcanStorm: mention the total number of weapon choices
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:17 PM - VulcanStorm: then the max. combinations available on a heavy tank
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:18 PM - Kidpaler: Well, for the trailer we are trying to pack action into it and avoid walls of text
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:18 PM - Kidpaler: Gotta keep their interest, not make them read a book. So thats why I want 1 shocking number
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:18 PM - VulcanStorm: over 30 different weapons...
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:18 PM - Kidpaler: Yea thats one of them
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:19 PM - VulcanStorm: 11 cannons in total?
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:19 PM - VulcanStorm: standard + 2*( ranged, bio, he, plasma, rails)
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:20 PM - VulcanStorm: standard + nukes + 2*(bio, uml, salvo, guided, homing)
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:20 PM - VulcanStorm: so that's 12 missiles?
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:20 PM - Kidpaler: Ye
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:21 PM - VulcanStorm: as for mgs...
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:21 PM - Kidpaler: std, cg, mcg, 2* (Plasma, Bio, HEMG, Du, 50cal)
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:21 PM - Kidpaler: I think
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:21 PM - VulcanStorm: standard + 2*(chaingun, he, du, bio, 50cal, plasma)
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:22 PM - VulcanStorm: so that's 13 i make it?
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:22 PM - VulcanStorm: Sgt. Security?... Can we have a 3 slot chain gun pls?
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:22 PM - Kidpaler: Yea, so... 36 different weapons?
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:22 PM - Kidpaler: Can we bump that number up past 40? that'd be great.
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:22 PM - VulcanStorm: arty
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:23 PM - VulcanStorm: grenade launchers
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:23 PM - VulcanStorm: that'll boost it over
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:23 PM - Kidpaler: Ahhh right
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:23 PM - VulcanStorm: 2 grenade launchers
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:23 PM - Kidpaler: UGL, gl, 4 arty cannons
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:23 PM - Kidpaler: WE HIT 40!
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:23 PM - VulcanStorm: small, medium, ranged, he arty
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:23 PM - VulcanStorm: so 40 different vehicle weapons
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:23 PM - Kidpaler: Can we get that number past 50? That'd be great.
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:23 PM - VulcanStorm: pfff.... that's pushing it
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:24 PM - Kidpaler: Well, when the TD gets added...
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:24 PM - Kidpaler: It will be past 50 I think
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:24 PM - VulcanStorm: but its not just weapons on a vehicle
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:24 PM - VulcanStorm: there's armour
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:24 PM - VulcanStorm: and engines
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:24 PM - Kidpaler: Yea, but thats not as cool sounding as weapons
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:24 PM - VulcanStorm: but for number of tank combinations?!?
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:24 PM - Kidpaler: While it is a major feature in Empires, gotta go with what sounds cooler while advertising. People care about customizing weapons
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:25 PM - Kidpaler: ALl I know is, its a shit ton
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:25 PM - VulcanStorm: over 50 different customisable tank parts
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:25 PM - Kidpaler: compo, regen, capacitive, abs, reactive, deflective, std
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:25 PM - VulcanStorm: that's 7...
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:25 PM - Kidpaler: std engine, adv coolant, bio diesel, gas turbine, 3 phase, reactor
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:26 PM - VulcanStorm: add 6
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:26 PM - VulcanStorm: so another 13
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:26 PM - VulcanStorm: 53 different vehicle options across all the tanks
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:26 PM - Kidpaler: WE HIT 55 CUSTOMIZABLE TANK PARTS
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:26 PM - VulcanStorm: 53, not 55...
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:26 PM - VulcanStorm: but its over 50
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:27 PM - Kidpaler: 55 isnt it? cause 36 normal wepaons, 4 arty, 2 grenade for APC, then 6 engines, 7 armors
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:27 PM - flasche: and all combinations of those
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:27 PM - VulcanStorm: oh yeah...
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:27 PM - flasche: thousands
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:27 PM - VulcanStorm: yup
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:28 PM - Kidpaler: * 5 chassis
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:28 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: and remember different chassis etc
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:28 PM - flasche: and thats not even exaggerated
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:28 PM - Kidpaler: Arty, APC, AFV/LT, med, heavy,
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:28 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: ....and about 5 customisations for each are meta
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:28 PM - VulcanStorm: is the qc file i posted useful flasche?
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:28 PM - flasche: it will be
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:28 PM - Kidpaler: Yea! The unique combination of deflective armor adv coolant engine 50 cal heavy.
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:28 PM - flasche: thanks
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:29 PM - VulcanStorm: we just need to break the meta then DDD!
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:29 PM - VulcanStorm: i still think a plasma rush is strong...
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:29 PM - VulcanStorm: i don't see it often
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:29 PM - Kidpaler: How do you break that which can not be broken?
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:29 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: i've been sitting on the edge of the meta for a long time now
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:29 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: warcube NF med ftw
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:29 PM - VulcanStorm: warcube?
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:29 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: 60 weight cannon + anti vehicle MG + salvo ml + light engine so you can get 16~ plates
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:29 PM - VulcanStorm: what loadout is that?
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:29 PM - Kidpaler: I found the most efficient NF med is abs, Bioml, DU mg, HE cannon with fission engine. Can easily kill BE heavies.
Jan 11, 2017 at 100 PM - VulcanStorm: ah
Jan 11, 2017 at 100 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: ^ that loadout is pretty close to what i consider spot on
Jan 11, 2017 at 100 PM - flasche: Become the WARCUBE. Crush your enemies, siege castles, and bring glory to your six-sided self! These cubes were made for battle, not building.
Jan 11, 2017 at 100 PM - flasche: http://store.steampowered.com/app/505060
Jan 11, 2017 at 100 PM - flasche: hahaha
Jan 11, 2017 at 100 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: flasche,
Jan 11, 2017 at 100 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: yeah i was about to say.
Jan 11, 2017 at 100 PM - Kidpaler: Time to stop development. That game has the warcube already spot on.
Jan 11, 2017 at 101 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: i used to like the BE med with that setup more back when salvo ml was 50 weight because you could do 14 plates total and thatw as very scary
Jan 11, 2017 at 102 PM - Kidpaler: BE med doesn't compare to the NF med
Jan 11, 2017 at 102 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: 8-9 seconds to kill a full reactive heavy
Jan 11, 2017 at 102 PM - Kidpaler: NF med can take out BE heavies easily because BE heavies can't carry shit
Jan 11, 2017 at 102 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: if you got the jump on an enemy they were dead
Jan 11, 2017 at 102 PM - VulcanStorm: the heavy tanks need more max weight...
Jan 11, 2017 at 102 PM - Kidpaler: You want dual slot cannon with an MG? NO ARMOR FOR YOU
Jan 11, 2017 at 102 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: nowadays something has changed and BE meds just don't hold up as well, NF meds are still A++ though
Jan 11, 2017 at 103 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: 2x ranged + anti vehicle MG still gives you 18 plates or 6/4/4/4
Jan 11, 2017 at 103 PM - Kidpaler: NF meds rape. To be fair, I wish all tanks performed like the NF med so they all felt deadly.
Jan 11, 2017 at 103 PM - VulcanStorm: BE heavies are very effective though
Jan 11, 2017 at 103 PM - VulcanStorm: you just gotta increase the max weight then
Jan 11, 2017 at 103 PM - Kidpaler: If all tanks performed like the NF med, this game would be golden. It would be risky as hell to rush into an enemies baser.
Jan 11, 2017 at 103 PM - Kidpaler: Because tanks would be much dealdier
Jan 11, 2017 at 103 PM - VulcanStorm: let the tanks carry heavier guns without scrapping armour
Jan 11, 2017 at 104 PM - VulcanStorm: people will most of the time take armour over weapons...
Jan 11, 2017 at 104 PM - Kidpaler: Which results in piss poor matches of firing shells at each other from far away until you both retreat to heal
Jan 11, 2017 at 105 PM - VulcanStorm: I think there might be a psychological effect from the heavy tank armour
Jan 11, 2017 at 105 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: the thing is, the current meta works in such a way that you can't do more weapons because you have to be able to 1v1
Jan 11, 2017 at 105 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: and that's not gonna change anytime soon
Jan 11, 2017 at 105 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: but if it were to change, you could play more defensively and pack more long-range heat
Jan 11, 2017 at 105 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: kinda like an arty i guess
Jan 11, 2017 at 105 PM - Kidpaler: I say we move to a system like RO2. You're hit? Most likely dead.
Jan 11, 2017 at 105 PM - VulcanStorm: like, if you get a heavy tank, you WANT to use the extra armour space compared to a med tank.
Jan 11, 2017 at 106 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: as i said
Jan 11, 2017 at 106 PM - Kidpaler: I love RO2 combat, if this were up to me gameplay would be entirely like that. Love tank combat in that game and I love infantry combat as well
Jan 11, 2017 at 106 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: current meta builds are 13 plates on a BE med vs 18 plates on a heavy
Jan 11, 2017 at 106 PM - VulcanStorm: If you run a heavy tank with <= the armour of a med tank... Then its just too squishy and it feels like you haven't made the best of the chassis.
Jan 11, 2017 at 106 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: NF counterparts get a couple extra plates because of their bulkiness
Jan 11, 2017 at 106 PM - VulcanStorm: *ahem* and lack of steering
Jan 11, 2017 at 107 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: yes because you are forced into this way of thinking that you need to be the big scary frontliner
Jan 11, 2017 at 107 PM - Kidpaler: I usually run Dual 2 slot ER cannon with DU/Bio mg with 5 plates on front and 1 side, then 4 on rear and the other side
Jan 11, 2017 at 107 PM - Kidpaler: I will never use the 3 slot cannons because I see them as unviable at this point
Jan 11, 2017 at 107 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: but in reality just getting dual heavy ranged and some other long range options to bobmard from the backlines could in theory work as well
Jan 11, 2017 at 107 PM - Kidpaler: I feel like I die quicker when I have the 3 slots
Jan 11, 2017 at 107 PM - VulcanStorm: The heavy tanks don't have the extra weight to take the heavier weapons...
Jan 11, 2017 at 108 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: i didn't use enough of them to form an opinion but i will FOR SURE opt for 3 slots
Jan 11, 2017 at 108 PM - VulcanStorm: They have to take the 2 slot ones to maintain armour advantage over the more agile med tanks
Jan 11, 2017 at 108 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: from what little i did, the extra firepower is worth it
Jan 11, 2017 at 108 PM - Kidpaler: The only 3 slot that I feel is worth it is HE
Jan 11, 2017 at 108 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: errr
Jan 11, 2017 at 108 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: please read what i wrote just a moment ago; there's 5+ plates of difference between meds and heavies already
Jan 11, 2017 at 109 PM - VulcanStorm: that depends
Jan 11, 2017 at 109 PM - VulcanStorm: on the loadout used.
Jan 11, 2017 at 109 PM - VulcanStorm: none of the armours are less than 10 weight
Jan 11, 2017 at 109 PM - Kidpaler: I still destroy people with dual 2 slots and they use 3 slots. Again, the 3 slots just dont feel worth it to me
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:40 PM - VulcanStorm: so the 3 slot weapon costs an extra armour plate
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:40 PM - VulcanStorm: compared to the dual one
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:40 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: one plate for a fair bit of extra oomph
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:40 PM - VulcanStorm: 67 dmg vs 60 dmg?
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:40 PM - VulcanStorm: it just doesn't feel like it...
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:40 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: also yes i destroy people with a medium just fine, that doesn't really mean 3 slot weapons are bad
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:40 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: in pristine lab conditions it's next to nothing
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:41 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: frontline combat is far from pristine
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:41 PM - VulcanStorm: Personally, i don't feel the extra damage does anything significant
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:41 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: i think the feeling will come with time
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:41 PM - VulcanStorm: perhaps
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:41 PM - VulcanStorm: maybe its the visual feedback
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:41 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: square off against a couple smarties and you'll appreciate/respect the stronger weapon
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:41 PM - Kidpaler: I do need to make 3 slot sounds to make them sound beefier
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:41 PM - VulcanStorm: with all the armour modifiers reducing damage
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:42 PM - Kidpaler: Maybe that is it as well, it just sounds as weak as the 2 slot
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:42 PM - Kidpaler: So your mind thinks weak
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:42 PM - VulcanStorm: what could be 60 damage, gets turned into 40, and 67 gets turned into 44...
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:43 PM - VulcanStorm: so the loss of a whole plate of armour, for 4 more damage
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:43 PM - VulcanStorm: and more heat generated
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:43 PM - VulcanStorm: heavy tanks don't have a higher heat capacity than med or standard tanks
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:43 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: they have faster cooling
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:43 PM - VulcanStorm: (i made the * 0.66 up btw, its not an actual resistance)
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:44 PM - VulcanStorm: do they?
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:44 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: and no matter how you slive it that's 10% extra damage
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:44 PM - VulcanStorm: i don't think so...
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:44 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: for the cost of approximately 6-7% health total
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:44 PM - VulcanStorm: say you've got 5 plates right?
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:44 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: well i'll take a shower now, you can go check the scripts to be sure but i'm fairly certain they do
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:44 PM - VulcanStorm: each plate is 20%
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:44 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: TOTAL
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:45 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: if you/your opponent doesn't rotate your tank this whole discussion is meaningless and 3-slots are superior since you both will have max plates on that one side
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:45 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: and the higher damage will amount to at least one less shot required
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:45 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: but, this is all about lab conditions and not actual gameplay, where this will pretty much never happen
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:48 PM - VulcanStorm: checked the scripts.... and from what i can tell, all engines of the same type have the same cooling
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:50 PM - VulcanStorm: so heavy tanks with coolant, cool just as fast as light tanks with coolant... that is probably what's making these new 3 slot weapons no better than the 2 slot...
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:51 PM - VulcanStorm: or not... that one is infact different
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:52 PM - VulcanStorm: same heat output, but light tank cools at 9, whereas heavy tank cools at 11
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:52 PM - VulcanStorm: both give 5 heat when moving
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:52 PM - VulcanStorm: and 0 heat when stationary
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:54 PM - VulcanStorm: so engines do cool a bit faster, but its only by 1...
Jan 11, 2017 at 10:59 PM - Xyaminou: yes there is very small difference between LT/AFVs engines and HTs engines
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:00 PM - Xyaminou: in the end it's all about the damage/HU
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:00 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: xya did you answer my steam pm i may have forgotten
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:00 PM - VulcanStorm: and the heat generation...
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:01 PM - Xyaminou: also if you look at the engines you'll find 3-phase is far better than people think
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:01 PM - Xyaminou: yes that's what I mean by HU vulcan.
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:01 PM - Xyaminou: yes Destroyer, I said yes.
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:01 PM - VulcanStorm: take coolant: say you're at 100 heat, and with 9 dissipation... that's 100/9 cycles for the heat to go
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:02 PM - VulcanStorm: which is about 11
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:02 PM - VulcanStorm: 11 cycles for a light tank
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:02 PM - VulcanStorm: but for the heavy, it has now 11 heat dissipation
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:02 PM - VulcanStorm: so is 9 cycles
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:04 PM - Xyaminou: Yeah well like I always say, coolant leads to dead tanks because it's too slow.
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:04 PM - Xyaminou: and if you're smart you're more often moving than not
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:05 PM - VulcanStorm: i'm wondering if the heavy-light tank difference is more noticeable for lower heat output engines
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:05 PM - Xyaminou: so assuming you're moving 2/3 of the time and if I remember the numbers correctly
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:06 PM - Xyaminou: 6x2+11/3 = 7.6 average cooling
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:06 PM - Xyaminou: whereas 3 phase
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:06 PM - Xyaminou: is something like
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:06 PM - Xyaminou: 5x2+6/3 = 5.3
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:07 PM - Xyaminou: so the only have like 2 cooling difference.
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:07 PM - VulcanStorm: i'm looking at gas turbine now
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:07 PM - Xyaminou: but 3 phase is 50% faster than coolant
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:09 PM - VulcanStorm: light tank has 6 total heat dissipation when stationary, heavy tank has 8
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:09 PM - Xyaminou: actuall I'm wrong
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:09 PM - Xyaminou: 3 phase is 7x2+8
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:09 PM - Xyaminou: which is 7.3 average cooling
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:09 PM - Xyaminou: so 0.3 difference to coolant.
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:10 PM - VulcanStorm: so to cool from max heat... 100/6 = 16 cycles for light tank, compared to 100/8 = 12.5 cycles for a heavy tank when stationary
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:10 PM - VulcanStorm: that's a more noticeable difference
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:10 PM - Xyaminou: so yeah, blah blah, maths, blah blah, 3 phase best engine in the game.
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:11 PM - VulcanStorm: but when moving with gas, light tank only has 4 heat dissipation, heavy tank has 6
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:11 PM - VulcanStorm: so 100/4 = 25 cycles... 100/6 = 16.6 cycles
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:11 PM - VulcanStorm: now 25 cycles compared to 17 cycles is noticeable
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:12 PM - Xyaminou: why are you counting in cycles?
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:12 PM - VulcanStorm: i'm unsure exactly how long a "cycle" is... but i don't think its a second...
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:12 PM - Xyaminou: it's a second
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:12 PM - VulcanStorm: ah
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:12 PM - VulcanStorm: i was unsure if the rate was in seconds or not...
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:12 PM - Xyaminou: "Heat Dissipation" "8" //amount of heat removed per second
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:13 PM - Xyaminou: unless the scripts are lying... you never know.
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:13 PM - VulcanStorm: I can't read
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:13 PM - VulcanStorm: so 25 secs to cool compared to 17 secs to cool is noticeable?
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:13 PM - VulcanStorm: but tbh... 11 secs to cool compared to 9 secs to cool?
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:14 PM - VulcanStorm: that's not as noticeable in combat
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:14 PM - VulcanStorm: where it could take you 1 second to line up your next shot
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:15 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: the amounts are different in combat, factor in not always accelerating and armor heat dissipation
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:15 PM - VulcanStorm: and with bigger weapons outputting more heat than smaller ones... when actually in combat, the heat dissipation feels almost the same between heavies and lights
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:15 PM - Xyaminou: so what's your point?
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:15 PM - Xyaminou: are you saying the difference between LT and HT should be bigger?
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:15 PM - VulcanStorm: no?
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:16 PM - VulcanStorm: it was a tangent to a discussion about whether 3 slot weapons were worth it or not
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:16 PM - Xyaminou: well you just have to look at the damage/heat to find that out.
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:16 PM - VulcanStorm: and then we were discussing med vs heavy
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:17 PM - Xyaminou: but in some cases, guided for example I noticed 2 slots have 4 ammo and 3 slots has 5.
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:17 PM - Xyaminou: so definitely worth it.
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:17 PM - VulcanStorm: but does it justify the armour plate loss and increased heat per shot?
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:17 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: that metric is not perfect though, it doesn't account for many things like time to output the damage and exposure times
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:18 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: sure works for sieging and to a smaller extent 1v1s but that is not what these weapons are primarily going to be used for
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:18 PM - Xyaminou: having 5 missiles instead of 4? yes it definitely justifies losing 1 plate of armor.
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:19 PM - VulcanStorm: but if you can only hit 4 because the enemy has moved out of sight?
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:19 PM - Xyaminou: guided is a burst, so having 2 more missiles in that burst makes a HUGE difference.
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:19 PM - VulcanStorm: then you're left with a clip of 1
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:19 PM - Xyaminou: so?
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:19 PM - Xyaminou: this is just one scenario
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:19 PM - VulcanStorm: which means you either reload now and waste that 1 last shot...
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:19 PM - Xyaminou: even if it happens 50% of the time
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:20 PM - Xyaminou: you're still left with another whole 50% where those 2 extra ammos can make a huge difference
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:20 PM - Xyaminou: whereas one plate of armor, really does not.
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:20 PM - VulcanStorm: or you fire that 1 shot in the next combat and then have to wait for it to reload
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:20 PM - Xyaminou: well no, with guided you should never keep, always reload.
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:20 PM - Xyaminou: like I said, burst.
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:22 PM - VulcanStorm: so if you fire a burst of 4 with 2 slot (empty clip and no LOS), and fire a burst of 4 with 3 slot (no LOS)... Is the 3 slot worth it?
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:22 PM - VulcanStorm: you're left with 1 shot remaining before you need to reload, whereas with the 2 slot you didn't...
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:22 PM - Xyaminou: what you're asking makes no sense, you can't take a very specific situation and forget about the rest of them.
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:23 PM - Xyaminou: so what if you have to reload? what's wrong with reloading?
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:23 PM - VulcanStorm: not being able to fire, and wasting remaining ammo in the clip
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:24 PM - Xyaminou: you'd be reloading anyway with the 2-slots, you're not making any sense.
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:24 PM - VulcanStorm: the advantage of the 3 slot was that 1 extra shot right?
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:24 PM - VulcanStorm: having 5 instead of 4
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:24 PM - VulcanStorm: before reloading
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:24 PM - Xyaminou: yes
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:25 PM - Xyaminou: and maybe or maybe not the damage/heat, since I don't know the numbers
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:25 PM - VulcanStorm: so you've paid 1 armour plate for that upgrade
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:25 PM - Xyaminou: yes...
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:25 PM - Señor_Awesome: 1 extra shot sounds worth it to me for guided
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:26 PM - VulcanStorm: but if you don't use that 1 shot (factors outside your control)... Then was the upgrade worth it?
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:26 PM - Xyaminou: ...
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:26 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: ...
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:26 PM - VulcanStorm: should you not have taken the 2 slot, and got that extra armour plate instead
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:26 PM - Xyaminou: if this if that if I suddenly become paraplegic
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:26 PM - Señor_Awesome: If I don't use that 1 shot then I wait until I can
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:26 PM - Xyaminou: if jesus christ ressusitate
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:26 PM - Señor_Awesome: it will eventually pay off
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:26 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: ressurects
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:26 PM - Xyaminou: you can't just say "if..." and ask if it's worth it it general
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:27 PM - Señor_Awesome: resuscitate
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:27 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: i cant type ignore me
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:27 PM - Xyaminou: if you miss 100% of your shot is it worth it to have ammo?
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:27 PM - Xyaminou: if you are sticky stunned is it worth it to even build tanks?
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:27 PM - VulcanStorm: i was trying to find a reason why heavy tanks should take a 3 slot weapon instead of its 2 slot counterpart
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:27 PM - Xyaminou: if you ask stupid questions without taking into account the probabilities your scenarios have of happening, is it really worth answering the?
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:28 PM - Señor_Awesome: The kill things faster factor
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:28 PM - Xyaminou: well I already gave you the reason.
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:28 PM - Xyaminou: either it has better damage/heat
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:28 PM - Xyaminou: or more ammo in a burst weapon
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:28 PM - Xyaminou: or a better velocity
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:28 PM - Xyaminou: or better accuracy
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:28 PM - Señor_Awesome: the deader your enemies the less damage you take
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:28 PM - Xyaminou: if not... it's not.
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:29 PM - Xyaminou: it's really pretty simple to determine a weapon's viability...
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:29 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: it performs laegely the same but hits harder
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:29 PM - Xyaminou: I don't know why people are struggling with it.
Jan 11, 2017 at 110 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: if you can live with the largely then it's clearly superior
Jan 11, 2017 at 110 PM - VulcanStorm: the 3 slot ones generate more heat, which offsets the cooling "bonus" for the chassis
Jan 11, 2017 at 110 PM - Xyaminou: anyway, I'm hungry, so I'm done explaining the obvious.
Jan 11, 2017 at 110 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: how often do you overhest
Jan 11, 2017 at 110 PM - VulcanStorm: ofetn...
Jan 11, 2017 at 110 PM - VulcanStorm: *often
Jan 11, 2017 at 110 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: with heavies or with all tanks
Jan 11, 2017 at 111 PM - Señor_Awesome: with jeeps mostly
Jan 11, 2017 at 111 PM - VulcanStorm: all really...
Jan 11, 2017 at 111 PM - Xyaminou: assuming an even match I'd say I reach maximum heat 90+% of the time before killing the enemy.
Jan 11, 2017 at 112 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: ....what the hell are you guys using
Jan 11, 2017 at 112 PM - Señor_Awesome: only standard or 3 phase
Jan 11, 2017 at 112 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: i only overheat standard engines and my medium build
Jan 11, 2017 at 112 PM - VulcanStorm: shooting lots, and shooting fast
Jan 11, 2017 at 112 PM - Xyaminou: well that's with anything but absorbant
Jan 11, 2017 at 113 PM - VulcanStorm: if you're firing 2 or 3 weapons at once, the heat builds up fast
Jan 11, 2017 at 113 PM - VulcanStorm: its controllable when sitting back and cannon shelling
Jan 11, 2017 at 113 PM - Señor_Awesome: personally I bind all weapons to one key because that's efficiency so things heat up
Jan 11, 2017 at 114 PM - Xyaminou: lol
Jan 11, 2017 at 116 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: i'm gonna be that guy and say that heat needs to be managed just like mana, or a reverse rage
Jan 11, 2017 at 116 PM - VulcanStorm: its a matter of tank combat style?
Jan 11, 2017 at 116 PM - VulcanStorm: in one style of tank combat, heat is fine, in the other, overheat happens.
Jan 11, 2017 at 116 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: with that amount of heat generation i'm fairly certain a lot of hits miss which is dead heat
Jan 11, 2017 at 117 PM - VulcanStorm: its long range vs short range combat
Jan 11, 2017 at 117 PM - VulcanStorm: at long range, you can only really predict 1 weapon... cannon or missile or mg
Jan 11, 2017 at 117 PM - VulcanStorm: unless you're some kind of god
Jan 11, 2017 at 118 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: regardless of style, if you overheat, you gotta focus on improving the bang for your cooling buck
Jan 11, 2017 at 118 PM - VulcanStorm: so you don't fire as much, therefore heat is controlled, but there is a downside
Jan 11, 2017 at 118 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: and i disagree, mg is hitscan, you can still aim at targets but it takes more juggling with your aim
Jan 11, 2017 at 118 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: a lot more.
Jan 11, 2017 at 119 PM - VulcanStorm: since you're at long range, the enemy can easily flee if injured, and also can turn around and reveal nice healthy armour plates
Jan 11, 2017 at 119 PM - VulcanStorm: so you don't kill the tank... often it ecapes
Jan 11, 2017 at 119 PM - VulcanStorm: *escapes
Jan 11, 2017 at 119 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: the same applies to you
Jan 11, 2017 at 119 PM - VulcanStorm: and tank combat takes a long time to get the enemy down low enough so that they flee
Jan 11, 2017 at 119 PM - VulcanStorm: whereas in short range combat
Jan 11, 2017 at 119 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: so to go back to what we started off with. more damage per shot is actually very beneficial and hardly brings any drawbacks
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:40 PM - VulcanStorm: not yet... you can easily fire cannon, mg and missile at the same time and hit with all 3 in close range
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:40 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: in short range engagements its all about your accuracy, gotta manage the heat
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:40 PM - VulcanStorm: you're already close to the enemy, so can maneuvre around the enemy and hit that weak plate
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:41 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: and now factor in teammates and other opponents and everything we discussed goes to shit
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:41 PM - VulcanStorm: thus killing the tank, or chase it if it tries to run away
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:41 PM - VulcanStorm: so tank combat is shorter, tanks die instead of run
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:41 PM - VulcanStorm: and in close range combat, you want to deal as much damage as fast as possible
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:41 PM - VulcanStorm: so as to kill him before he kills you
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:42 PM - VulcanStorm: but then overheat happens...
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:42 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: all 1v1 considerations
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:42 PM - VulcanStorm: well in multiple tank fights, long range is normally what occurrs
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:42 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: i can see your point and it has merit but it rarely is that simple
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:42 PM - VulcanStorm: because driving closer to kill them faster gets you killed first...
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:43 PM - VulcanStorm: so in multiple tank fights, to prolong your life (and expensive tank), you sit back and shoot
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:44 PM - VulcanStorm: where in reality... sacrificing a teammates tank to draw fire, and all of you rushing close would kill far more of them than you
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:44 PM - VulcanStorm: and the fight would be over faster, and less prolonged
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:45 PM - VulcanStorm: but people value their expensive tank over the possibility that losing 1000 res and losing the enemy 2000
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:45 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: now we are just doing a lot of wishful thinking
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:45 PM - VulcanStorm: yeah
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:45 PM - VulcanStorm: players are selfish and will hold on to their tank as long as possible
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:46 PM - VulcanStorm: so long tank fights ensue
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:46 PM - VulcanStorm: with no-one dying because of long range
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:46 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: imo the big takeaway is, a healthy balance is key to the perfect combination, but achieving that is debatable and extremely diffixult with the lack off cooedination we exhibit nowadays
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:46 PM - VulcanStorm: yeah...
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:46 PM - VulcanStorm: i'm still not certain whether the 3 slot is any better than the 2 slot when it comes to fighting up close
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:47 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: in other words
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:47 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: we should do squadplay this saturday
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:47 PM - VulcanStorm: agreed. :D
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:48 PM - VulcanStorm: 3 slot beats 2 slot when fighting at range (you can dodge projectiles so avoid the damage that would have taken your sacrificed plate)
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:48 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: the initial plan is to be free at around about 9 your time but this might change
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:48 PM - VulcanStorm: 9 gmt?
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:48 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: i might have crippling post-exam depression or still be tied up in DnD but the plan is there
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:48 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: 9PM UK time whatever that is gmt
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:49 PM - VulcanStorm: we're in line with utc at the moment
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:49 PM - VulcanStorm: so 9 utc
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:50 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: nor helpful, I run off of the difference between you and me
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:50 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: but it should be 9 pm
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:50 PM - VulcanStorm: 9PM UK time is 9PM UTC currently
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:50 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: im assuming im correct but its time to sleep so pardon me if i dont confirm
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:51 PM - VulcanStorm: as for 3 slot in close range... 2 slot and more armour is probably better, less heat, faster damage, more armour to use to escape
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:51 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: i nedd my beauty sleep before a long day of nuclear medicine which is a subkect for some godawful reason
Jan 11, 2017 at 11:51 PM - VulcanStorm: sounds fun
Jan 12, 2017 at 3:08 AM - Lazybum: I don't see how 3 slots is slower damage, I don't think the cycle time for anything has changed. Heat too, the 10% increase in damage only increased the heat by 10% too
Jan 12, 2017 at 3:09 AM - Lazybum: if anything it just means you'll do more damage in a shorter period of time
Jan 12, 2017 at 3:10 AM - Lazybum: I don't think the extra plate of armor will save you in a short range engagement, most people die with near full plates on 3 sides, sometimes 2 if they are getting hit by a second tank or mangaged to spin the tank a bit

 

Jan 12, 2017 at 5:08 AM - Sgt.Security: Took people literally 2 months to realize it's no longer HEMG masterrace.
Jan 12, 2017 at 58 AM - Sgt.Security: 3-slot weapons? meh I can wait.
Jan 12, 2017 at 70 AM - D.D.D. Destroyer: yup, meta in empires is very slow to develop
Jan 12, 2017 at 71 AM - D.D.D. Destroyer: matches the mapping pace tbh
Jan 12, 2017 at 71 AM - D.D.D. Destroyer: speaking of which, emp_iceberg_a2 test soon, i just have to make a new minimap
Jan 12, 2017 at 11:49 AM - Xyaminou: problem is not that it's slow, the problem is it takes me far less time than others and yet people never listen to me.
Jan 12, 2017 at 11:49 AM - Xyaminou: makes Empires a real pain in the ass.
Jan 12, 2017 at 11:50 AM - D.D.D. Destroyer: certain parts of the gameplay are so deeply ingrained in incorrectness that it's extremely frustrating to deal with
Jan 12, 2017 at 11:51 AM - Xyaminou: hell most people still don't understand that 3-phase is the best engine right now.
Jan 12, 2017 at 11:51 AM - Xyaminou: it's been for a long time really.
Jan 12, 2017 at 11:51 AM - D.D.D. Destroyer: prime example, healing teammates and the over-reliance on instant heals and revives
Jan 12, 2017 at 11:51 AM - D.D.D. Destroyer: i'd agree on 3phase were it not 10 weight too heavy for my medium tank setup. Any other tank, yesyesyes though
Jan 12, 2017 at 11:52 AM - D.D.D. Destroyer: what i meant to say there is, people refuse to/don't realise they have to stop for 2-3 seconds to get back to full HP when an engineer is chasing after them
Jan 12, 2017 at 11:53 AM - D.D.D. Destroyer: it costs a fracture of the charge and yields as many skill points per health restored
Jan 12, 2017 at 11:53 AM - D.D.D. Destroyer: "but it's faster to revive"
Jan 12, 2017 at 11:54 AM - Xyaminou: once upon a time healing upg was the meta...
Jan 12, 2017 at 11:55 AM - Xyaminou: back when foxtrot was the best squad ever.
Jan 12, 2017 at 12:21 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: that's still something i take for my frontline engineer build, works wonders on slaughtered if your teammates cooperate...
Jan 12, 2017 at 12:53 PM - flasche: the problem with healing upgrade is that those headless chickens would need to stop running around aimlessly.
Jan 12, 2017 at 12:54 PM - flasche: which we all know wont happen
Jan 12, 2017 at 1:04 PM - Paradox: now the best squad is delta
Jan 12, 2017 at 2:13 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: it honestly depends on who you're working with, some folks do, some folks need to be reminded that you are one of the few that know how to heal teammates, some will literally tell you that healign is a waste of time because revive is faster
Jan 12, 2017 at 2:25 PM - flasche: well it is faster true, but healting takes a lot less juice.
Jan 12, 2017 at 2:25 PM - flasche: healing*
Jan 12, 2017 at 2:26 PM - flasche: i mean you can just run pass a body and revive it at an instant, you cant just run by someone healing them
Jan 12, 2017 at 2:27 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: i forgot quotation marks
Jan 12, 2017 at 2:27 PM - flasche: but revive drains your calc dry. you can revive 2 people, then you have downtime, while with healing upgrade you could heal you whole team and still build something
Jan 12, 2017 at 2:28 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: you don't need to tell me
Jan 12, 2017 at 2:28 PM - flasche: its impressive - if only they stood still
Jan 12, 2017 at 2:28 PM - flasche: and thats why i only take revive unless its dickstrict and i dont play that map
Jan 12, 2017 at 2:29 PM - flasche: because i rather stare at a blank white wall, its less of a waste of time
Jan 12, 2017 at 21 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: that's self-contradictory though
Jan 12, 2017 at 21 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: players don't stop for healing and rely on being revived yet you don't take revive? Come on
Jan 12, 2017 at 24 PM - Kidpaler: District is one of the best maps...
Jan 12, 2017 at 26 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: nopenopeNOPE
Jan 12, 2017 at 26 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: turns into a stalemate at medium pop
Jan 12, 2017 at 26 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: which only ends when the timer runs out
Jan 12, 2017 at 26 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: and that timer is 45 minutes
Jan 12, 2017 at 27 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: so you're stuck there for half an hour or more on a map that is ideally used as a warmup/break between classic maps
Jan 12, 2017 at 28 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: and the only gameplay you see is holding one end of an alleyway, which you can't push up reliably but also can't lose easily
Jan 12, 2017 at 28 PM - flasche: read again destroyer "i only take revive unless its dickstrict"
Jan 12, 2017 at 29 PM - flasche: because people run around like headless chickens
Jan 12, 2017 at 29 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: okay i read again and the fact that i didn't understand it the first (or third) time is worrying me
Jan 12, 2017 at 2:40 PM - flasche: on district, i often took heal because people cower behind cover
Jan 12, 2017 at 2:40 PM - flasche: on other maps i dont, i take revive
Jan 12, 2017 at 2:41 PM - flasche: because playing catch with half dead people is no fun under fire
Jan 12, 2017 at 2:47 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: and now i'm cryptic too; i get it, it just took a few re-reads for some reason
Jan 12, 2017 at 2:52 PM - flasche: lol
Jan 12, 2017 at 2:54 PM - flasche: and yes district is meh. the emp map i like the least. closely followed by escort
Jan 12, 2017 at 2:56 PM - Paradox: district best map
Jan 12, 2017 at 2:56 PM - Paradox: lets not kid ourselfs
Jan 12, 2017 at 2:59 PM - flasche: hmm i just ask myself what my fav empires map is
Jan 12, 2017 at 3:00 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: escort is just crazy imba
Jan 12, 2017 at 3:00 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: and the favorite map is obviously nuclear, i mean come on
Jan 12, 2017 at 3:01 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: it even has your button
Jan 12, 2017 at 3:01 PM - Kidpaler: District has unique gameplay. I wish there was more city combat maps that played like district but a bit more open
Jan 12, 2017 at 3:02 PM - Kidpaler: IE more routes to take other than a street
Jan 12, 2017 at 3:04 PM - Kidpaler: Like... going in the buildings and fighting between buildings would be good
Jan 12, 2017 at 3:06 PM - flasche: why play empires then?
Jan 12, 2017 at 3:07 PM - Kidpaler: Because I also like the many other aspects of this game. I just wish that Empires infantry maps weren't linear and a grind fest, they'd be more fun
Jan 12, 2017 at 3:08 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: urban maps are a pain to make
Jan 12, 2017 at 3:09 PM - Kidpaler: Yea
Jan 12, 2017 at 3:09 PM - flasche: i have to admot the grindfest on district ia one of my oldest empires memories. back the i was impressed by how intense it felt. now after a few hundreds if not thousands rounds i cant think of much more unenjoyable than that
Jan 12, 2017 at 3:10 PM - Kidpaler: Ive played it far too much and I used to hate it, but recently I found it interesting again. Again, I wish it was a tad more open with more routes because that would make it more interesting, but it's still fun
Jan 12, 2017 at 3:12 PM - Kidpaler: It's fun till about 10v10
Jan 12, 2017 at 3:12 PM - Lazybum: east best inf map
Jan 12, 2017 at 3:12 PM - flasche: its better on euro servers
Jan 12, 2017 at 3:13 PM - Kidpaler: It would be if it was played anymore
Jan 12, 2017 at 3:13 PM - Lazybum: I feel like it gets seen enough, the difference is unlike several other inf maps east can end in 5 minutes
Jan 12, 2017 at 3:13 PM - Lazybum:
Jan 12, 2017 at 3:14 PM - Kidpaler: That and whenever I see it its usually only a 5v5 and you are just walking around aimlessly capping flags and running into people sometimes
Jan 12, 2017 at 3:14 PM - flasche: i really miss my low latency
Jan 12, 2017 at 3:14 PM - Lazybum: that's the problem with more open infantry maps, it's very easy for a side to just run around eachother capping flags
Jan 12, 2017 at 3:14 PM - Lazybum: I miss my high ping
Jan 12, 2017 at 3:14 PM - Kidpaler: I remember full matches on East, those were intense. Lots of routes to push.
Jan 12, 2017 at 3:15 PM - Kidpaler: Well Lazy, I don't mean open like East. Take, for example, the map I'm trying to make. It's open, but linear cap. You aren't restricted to a small street, you can run around a forest to get behind enemy trench line, or push across no mans land
Jan 12, 2017 at 3:15 PM - Kidpaler: Plenty of cover, open, but also linear to keep combat located in an area
Jan 12, 2017 at 3:15 PM - Lazybum: I haven't seen the size of it, but it's not usually hard to sneak aorund people if it's like that
Jan 12, 2017 at 3:16 PM - Lazybum: or can you only cap linearly?
Jan 12, 2017 at 3:16 PM - Kidpaler: You can only cap linearly
Jan 12, 2017 at 3:16 PM - flasche: did yoz try the new colors already?
Jan 12, 2017 at 3:16 PM - Kidpaler: So sneaking around doesn't help anything really
Jan 12, 2017 at 3:16 PM - Lazybum: ah, alright then yea
Jan 12, 2017 at 3:16 PM - flasche: gosh i hate typing on my phone
Jan 12, 2017 at 3:16 PM - Lazybum: Well it can help push from behind, killing all those rev engies
Jan 12, 2017 at 3:17 PM - Kidpaler: Yea, its on the latest version. I have to fix some terrain issues and send it back to Dz to make the callable arty strikes and enterable bunker turrets
Jan 12, 2017 at 3:18 PM - Kidpaler: A4 will hopefully have a lot of the gimmicky stuff
Jan 12, 2017 at 3:18 PM - Kidpaler: Also, it will help to push from behind, but you cant cap behind someone elses flag so it wont be like Eastborough where you won't see people forever
Jan 12, 2017 at 39 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: i see some americans complaining about lag already, i don't think they could possibly bear playing on a EU server where the euros can clean house even better
Jan 12, 2017 at 3:41 PM - Xyaminou: I miss having 10 ping on EPIC
Jan 12, 2017 at 3:41 PM - Xyaminou: made it so much easier to hit stuff
Jan 12, 2017 at 3:41 PM - Xyaminou: although as long as Empires runs on 33 TPS it'll still be a shitshow
Jan 12, 2017 at 3:50 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: you should try hosting a listen server some time, it's actually insane how responsive empires can be
Jan 12, 2017 at 3:50 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: and how salty you can make everyone because they just can't compete with 0 ping
Jan 12, 2017 at 3:58 PM - flasche: its most noticeabke when you try to cap the be cv on a camera. shit is virtually impossibru on viper/nubs
Jan 12, 2017 at 4:08 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: it's most noticeable when you play vs security because i keep getting shot around corners ash e's one of the few folks with their aim on point
Jan 12, 2017 at 44 PM - Neoony: I would actually perform so much worse, because of how used Iam to 110-150 ping in empires
Jan 12, 2017 at 44 PM - Neoony: I remember having that issue everytime I played on epic...if I only rarely played on it
Jan 12, 2017 at 44 PM - Neoony: takes long time to get used to it
Jan 12, 2017 at 47 PM - Neoony: epic was like 30ms to me
Jan 12, 2017 at 4:41 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: i imagine it's quite different for mortars and grenades, but bullet based weapons are super responsive
Jan 12, 2017 at 4:44 PM - Sgt.Security: Neoony try with 350 ping where you have to duck for 0.35 sec before you can fire your mortar.
Jan 12, 2017 at 4:44 PM - Sgt.Security: Then tell me high ping is better, it's not, it's just you are used to it.
Jan 12, 2017 at 4:45 PM - Sgt.Security: Play with 50 ping for a month you'll be dat boss.
Jan 12, 2017 at 4:46 PM - Neoony: just what I said
Jan 12, 2017 at 4:48 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: monthly reminder that empirescon is a thing that needs to happen
Jan 12, 2017 at 4:49 PM - Sgt.Security: I think I just reminded myself why I don't play Gren as often, because I think that's one of the few things that I can never overcome.
Jan 12, 2017 at 4:49 PM - Lazybum: oh yeah, that's why I hated grenning on epic
Jan 12, 2017 at 4:49 PM - Lazybum: can't mortar with ping D:
Jan 12, 2017 at 4:50 PM - Lazybum: i don't know how euros do it
Jan 12, 2017 at 4:51 PM - Sgt.Security: Accuracy is not what bothers me, it's that annoying waiting time before you can fire.
Jan 12, 2017 at 4:52 PM - Sgt.Security: your mortar.
Jan 12, 2017 at 4:54 PM - Sgt.Security: It's one of the few things you PHYSICALLY can't do a shit about it.
Jan 12, 2017 at 4:58 PM - Sgt.Security: Oh and just saying.
Jan 12, 2017 at 4:59 PM - Sgt.Security: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/22159878/未命名2.png
Jan 12, 2017 at 5:00 PM - Sgt.Security: People tend to not notice things they don't care.
Jan 12, 2017 at 5:09 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: gonna need a hand to tedt snowbound fix tomorrow, any takers?
Jan 12, 2017 at 5:11 PM - Sgt.Security: Working on a report that I have to represent in 9 hours. Wit u fixing?
Jan 12, 2017 at 5:12 PM - Sgt.Security: What*
Jan 12, 2017 at 5:13 PM - Xyaminou: Testing is caring
Jan 12, 2017 at 5:14 PM - NekoBaron: good testers > quick lazy testers
Jan 12, 2017 at 5:15 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: the gate logic which is apparebtly malfunctioning when buttons get spammed
Jan 12, 2017 at 5:16 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: also i apc-proofed the nf base a bit, but you might still be able to wallclimb or something similar onto the walls
Jan 12, 2017 at 5:16 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: gotta check
Jan 12, 2017 at 5:16 PM - NekoBaron: Why dont you just make the gate based on who owns the spawn next to it
Jan 12, 2017 at 5:18 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: what?
Jan 12, 2017 at 5:20 PM - NekoBaron: well, if you made it so when NF fully caps the inner flag, the gate opens, and only closed when BE fully caps it back. It cant be spammed then and gives BE more focus to recap the forward bunker.
Jan 12, 2017 at 5:21 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: oh i see what you mean, i dont think that part of nuclear needs changing. i was talking about snowbound though
Jan 12, 2017 at 5:21 PM - NekoBaron: oh right, that map...
Jan 12, 2017 at 5:22 PM - NekoBaron: I would just redesign the bases, get rid of the gates, maybe add engineer buildable baricades. its stupid when the doors lock up and tanks end up driving up the cliffs anyway.
Jan 12, 2017 at 5:25 PM - NekoBaron: Or get gud at hammer logic ents, relays and counters and such. Hard part is finding which part of the logic breaks.
Jan 12, 2017 at 5:28 PM - NekoBaron: IE I would add a lil sprite ent (the ones used to look like where light is shining from but isnt light), make it change colour to show what state the buttons are in, would also help people time hitting the buttons together
Jan 12, 2017 at 50 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: creeper fixed tanks exploiting over the wall quite some time ago now
Jan 12, 2017 at 51 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: but good call on the sprites, i will add them
Jan 12, 2017 at 52 PM - NekoBaron: I used to map a lot, Im not great on detail but I loved working on logic ents, puzzles and such, made some rather silly maps and I used the sprites a lot to show players what to press a lot.
Jan 12, 2017 at 53 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: i have a vague idea on what is causing the issue so i will try that for a fix
Jan 12, 2017 at 54 PM - NekoBaron: I could probably fix it or re make the logic, but never looked at the map, dont really like the map much when it ends with one team stuck in their base. I prefer more dynamic maps where the base can move.
Jan 12, 2017 at 5:44 PM - vipervicki: hey destroyer
Jan 12, 2017 at 5:44 PM - vipervicki: i havent put the server up for a few since eveyrone stopped laying but will if asked
Jan 12, 2017 at 5:45 PM - vipervicki: playing not laying
Jan 12, 2017 at 5:51 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: okay that makes sense, my january is looking a little grim right now
Jan 12, 2017 at 5:52 PM - vipervicki: np I can bring it up if antyone wants jsut felt it was silly keeping it up with no one playing anymore
Jan 12, 2017 at 5:52 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: true, true
Jan 12, 2017 at 5:52 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: right now i'm eyeing this: http://forums.puzzlepirates.com/community/mvnforum/viewthread?thread=206204
Jan 12, 2017 at 5:53 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: bit of a blast from the past for my relatives, we still have a small-time crew with ships and stuff on one of the oceans
Jan 12, 2017 at 5:53 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: but this soft relaunch is looking very promising, so i'll probably try getting folks to try it with me and my cousin when that thing hits
Jan 12, 2017 at 5:54 PM - vipervicki: cool Ill take alook wurm was fun with us all playing I enjoyed it
Jan 12, 2017 at 5:54 PM - vipervicki: but first gotta get my chocolate fix brb
Jan 12, 2017 at 5:56 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: it's literally a bunch of pirate flavored puzzle minigames put together into a very long stsnding MMO
Jan 12, 2017 at 5:57 PM - vipervicki: k
Jan 12, 2017 at 6:40 PM - Xyaminou: or you know, play a real game...
Jan 12, 2017 at 6:43 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: implying it's not real
Jan 12, 2017 at 6:43 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: you gotta be good at those minigames man
Jan 12, 2017 at 6:43 PM - Paradox: dont think hes implying it, hes straight up telling you
Jan 12, 2017 at 6:45 PM - Xyaminou: MINIgames
Jan 12, 2017 at 6:45 PM - Xyaminou: enough said.
Jan 12, 2017 at 6:48 PM - Xyaminou: just saying if you're going to go for games with persistence might as well go for some good ones.
Jan 12, 2017 at 6:50 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: to each their own man, i'd at least look it up before delivering critique
Jan 12, 2017 at 6:51 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: that being said it's not your type so i don't think it'd make a difference...it has its own charm,kind of like empires does for us
Jan 12, 2017 at 6:52 PM - Xyaminou: and lose a perfect opportunity to be arrogant?
Jan 12, 2017 at 6:52 PM - Xyaminou: gotta stay in character
Jan 12, 2017 at 6:52 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: this isn't dnd dammit
Jan 12, 2017 at 6:52 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: speaking of which, everyone is initially confirmed
Jan 12, 2017 at 6:52 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: everyone but me that is >_>
Jan 12, 2017 at 6:52 PM - Xyaminou: cool
Jan 12, 2017 at 6:53 PM - Xyaminou: of course
Jan 12, 2017 at 6:53 PM - Xyaminou: Let's hope I get to use that fireball.
Jan 12, 2017 at 6:56 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: you have a fireball?
Jan 12, 2017 at 6:56 PM - Xyaminou: of course, I'm level 5, have you forgotten?
Jan 12, 2017 at 6:56 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: yes
Jan 12, 2017 at 6:56 PM - Xyaminou: lol
Jan 12, 2017 at 6:57 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: it's okay, the way i prep sessions you guys can't tell they're tailored for YOUR levels anyways
Jan 12, 2017 at 6:58 PM - Xyaminou: can't be surprised if we always expect to get our asses kicked
Jan 12, 2017 at 6:59 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: okay look i'm not making them THAT hard
Jan 12, 2017 at 6:59 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: they just turn out that way
Jan 12, 2017 at 6:59 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: which really is quite okay given how hard certain folks minmax
Jan 12, 2017 at 7:00 PM - Xyaminou: Well I'm still alive so can't complain.
Jan 12, 2017 at 7:01 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: winter festival is very close so i'll be as disappointed as everyone else when someone dies
Jan 12, 2017 at 7:02 PM - Xyaminou: I'll only be disappointed if he can't be used to win the festival.
Jan 12, 2017 at 7:03 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: oh yeaaaah you guys haven't found anything fit for the contest
Jan 12, 2017 at 7:03 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: this will be fun, i wonder how you'll go about that
Jan 12, 2017 at 7:05 PM - Xyaminou: I mean, I have, it's just all been refused.
Jan 12, 2017 at 7:06 PM - Xyaminou: it's not my fault people won't try a bite of Orc
Jan 12, 2017 at 7:12 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: that's borderline unethical
Jan 12, 2017 at 9:47 PM - Ranger: The other day I dreamed i dug too deep and I found a big cave under the mountain and three huge white fur trolls attacked us. We tried to escape, D was taking all the damage, they were playing with him like orcas play with seals before eating them. I was using my bow strangely.
Jan 12, 2017 at 9:49 PM - Ranger: Today I dreamed we visited the northern forest after the desert again, and we encountered a huge wave of refugee coming towards us. Turns out dozens of trolls and hordes of orcs were after them, and set our village on fire and we all died.
Jan 12, 2017 at 9:49 PM - Ranger: And I haven't played wurm for maybe 10 days.
Jan 12, 2017 at 9:56 PM - Xyaminou: oO
Jan 12, 2017 at 105 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: you
Jan 12, 2017 at 106 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: have weird dreams.
Jan 12, 2017 at 10:42 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: but that just means you need to grind more FS
Jan 13, 2017 at 12:53 AM - Xyaminou: By Tama on April 2, 2017
Jan 13, 2017 at 12:53 AM - Xyaminou: uh... am I reading this incorrectly or has time travel been invented?
Jan 13, 2017 at 1:11 AM - Kidpaler: Yea, when they were fixing the Empires Source Code they stumbled upon the secret to time travel, good thing they patched the bug though.
Jan 13, 2017 at 1:56 AM - vipervicki: holy moly I found the black hole lol

Jan 13, 2017 6:16 AM - flasche: but 300€ (probably more) for just one game?
Jan 13, 2017 6:18 AM - flasche: yeh right, maybe 2, zelda certainly is nice aswell
Jan 13, 2017 6:18 AM - Señor_Awesome: I know I'll eventually get at least 3 games on it. Mario, Zelda, and splatoon.
Jan 13, 2017 6:18 AM - flasche: i have splatoon, we have a wii-u
Jan 13, 2017 6:18 AM - flasche: played it once maybe
Jan 13, 2017 6:19 AM - Señor_Awesome: splatoon was probably the best game on that console
Jan 13, 2017 6:19 AM - flasche: i have not turned it on for like a year
Jan 13, 2017 6:19 AM - flasche: we sometimes watch netflix on it
Jan 13, 2017 6:19 AM - flasche: lol
Jan 13, 2017 6:20 AM - Señor_Awesome: that's most people's experience with it
Jan 13, 2017 6:20 AM - flasche: gf wanted it
Jan 13, 2017 6:20 AM - flasche: cant argue with that
Jan 13, 2017 6:21 AM - Señor_Awesome: between that and the 3ds they rereleased all the 3d zeldas with actual improvements
Jan 13, 2017 6:22 AM - flasche: maybe we should invite more friends over and not sit infront of our computers all the time
Jan 13, 2017 6:22 AM - Señor_Awesome: I have friends that I try to invite over all the time. Did you know young people are flaky, apparently?
Jan 13, 2017 6:22 AM - Señor_Awesome: first it's 'sure thing' then it's 'oh wait I have to go get groceries'
Jan 13, 2017 6:23 AM - flasche: that doesnt change with age
Jan 13, 2017 6:23 AM - Señor_Awesome: maybe my friends don't like me
Jan 13, 2017 6:23 AM - flasche: nah were the same
Jan 13, 2017 6:23 AM - flasche: i blame the internets
Jan 13, 2017 6:23 AM - flasche: and more or less free calling
Jan 13, 2017 6:24 AM - Señor_Awesome: yeah...
Jan 13, 2017 6:24 AM - Señor_Awesome: and the ability to still 'hang out' via the comfort of your bed
Jan 13, 2017 6:24 AM - flasche: when i was 18 noone got mobiles and only a few had computers and even less with internets
Jan 13, 2017 6:24 AM - flasche: we had to meet IRL
Jan 13, 2017 6:25 AM - flasche: now everyone has steam and we also have our own TS server
Jan 13, 2017 6:25 AM - flasche: no need to move our lazy asses
Jan 13, 2017 6:25 AM - Señor_Awesome: what's even more infuriating is I know people with that mentality but who also refuse to get a headset (or microphone)
Jan 13, 2017 6:26 AM - Señor_Awesome: so it's all text
Jan 13, 2017 6:26 AM - flasche: eww
Jan 13, 2017 6:26 AM - Señor_Awesome: then I feel like an asshole when I'm the only guy yelling whenever I get a smoker on me in left 4 dead or something
Jan 13, 2017 6:28 AM - flasche: typing is so slow
Jan 13, 2017 6:28 AM - flasche: and you cant do other things in the meantime
Jan 13, 2017 60 AM - Señor_Awesome: yeah... also kind of feels like a disconnect sometimes
Jan 13, 2017 61 AM - flasche: and you dont hear people screem in panic because theyre close to dying
Jan 13, 2017 61 AM - flasche: which is half the fun
Jan 13, 2017 61 AM - flasche: or cursing because they failed again
Jan 13, 2017 61 AM - Señor_Awesome: the other half is doing nothing as they die, but making sure they know that it was totally in your power to do something about it
Jan 13, 2017 62 AM - flasche:
Jan 13, 2017 63 AM - D.D.D. Destroyer: ZELDER HOIPE
Jan 13, 2017 64 AM - Señor_Awesome: I've had that game pre-ordered for the Wii U since it's first announcement trailer... which was like 30 seconds long and 2 or 3 years ago. Now I gotta order it for the Switch -_-
Jan 13, 2017 65 AM - D.D.D. Destroyer: i might actually get the switch if its in that price range, i was expecting a more expensive thing
Jan 13, 2017 65 AM - flasche: i doubt it will be 300€ tho
Jan 13, 2017 66 AM - flasche: more like 350-400
Jan 13, 2017 67 AM - D.D.D. Destroyer: at which point i might not
Jan 13, 2017 7:59 AM - flasche: destroyer you still here?
Jan 13, 2017 8:00 AM - flasche: what color do you want your monitors in?
Jan 13, 2017 8:02 AM - flasche: also what to put on the displays?
Jan 13, 2017 8:10 AM - flasche: display*
Jan 13, 2017 8:15 AM - flasche: also what dimension you wanted?
Jan 13, 2017 8:16 AM - flasche: noooo you cannot be not here now. for once i get my lazy ass up and do shit and i dont get answers ...
Jan 13, 2017 8:16 AM - flasche:
Jan 13, 2017 8:41 AM - flasche: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/331067/4destroyer/monitor_small_test.PNG
Jan 13, 2017 8:42 AM - flasche: its just a test, it needs plugs, but ill try if i can just add them with substance painter
Jan 13, 2017 8:42 AM - flasche: and FFS this memebers online now thing doesnt work
Jan 13, 2017 8:42 AM - flasche: members* lol
Jan 13, 2017 8:43 AM - flasche: and i guess ports for plugs ...
Jan 13, 2017 8:44 AM - flasche: also the texture is just B/W atm, you can have it in whatever color you liek
Jan 13, 2017 8:45 AM - flasche: and ofc it can look more in mint condition or even less, thats just moving a slider
Jan 13, 2017 9:07 AM - D.D.D. Destroyer: I HAVE AN EXAM IN FIVE HOURD AND THEY JUST CSLLED OFF TWO OF THE CLASSES FOR TJAT EXAM ASFDFSDFDA
Jan 13, 2017 9:08 AM - D.D.D. Destroyer: also since its not mucj of a proboem can we start with mint condition black monitors with black screens? i dont have s plan for these just yet
Jan 13, 2017 9:08 AM - D.D.D. Destroyer: phone typing is hard btw
Jan 13, 2017 9:11 AM - flasche: i was just kidding. when will you be available again?
Jan 13, 2017 9:11 AM - flasche: 5h + a bit to get back home ... thats around 4pm my time?
Jan 13, 2017 9:12 AM - flasche: ill be on on steam ...
Jan 13, 2017 9:13 AM - flasche: oh well, the exam prolly takes some time too - so more like 6 my time
Jan 13, 2017 10:12 AM - D.D.D. Destroyer: 5 pm our time at the earliest
Jan 13, 2017 10:16 AM - flasche: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/331067/4destroyer/monitor_small_test_02.PNG
Jan 13, 2017 10:18 AM - flasche: the thing with black is that it wont work due to how lighting works. if itd be PBR i would do it pitch black since it wont be pitch black afterwards
Jan 13, 2017 10:18 AM - D.D.D. Destroyer: yes i like
Jan 13, 2017 10:18 AM - flasche: the textures can be edited easily thanks to substance designer
Jan 13, 2017 10:20 AM - flasche: ill see if i can add ports for cables and stuff in painter - i have not used it since i bought it so it might be a huge failure aswell. well see
Jan 13, 2017 10:25 AM - flasche: also ive set myself an alarm for 6pm to get on in steam in case im not.
Jan 13, 2017 12:18 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: AAAA i just saw the new zelda trailer and i literally jumped in my seat and squealed
Jan 13, 2017 12:19 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: what it showed is basically exactly what i want from my media consumption
Jan 13, 2017 12:24 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: one thing i'm forgetting now, will that thing also run wii u games? Kinda want to play the Warriors games as well
Jan 13, 2017 120 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: i also just realised that there's going to be maybe 5 switches available across poland, given how wii u sold, so i'm not sure how to go about procuring one if i decided to bite
Jan 13, 2017 2:05 PM - Señor_Awesome: doesn't matter, looks like it's gonna be hard to get in America too -_-
Jan 13, 2017 2:10 PM - Señor_Awesome: I stayed up until bloody 10 my time checking amazon since that's my preferred place. Went to sleep cause why not, and it apparently went live at like 3am my time and sold out in 0 minutes based on comments
Jan 13, 2017 2:10 PM - Señor_Awesome: oh yeah I forgot the shoutbox does that to times. 1 thirty and less than 30 minutes
Jan 13, 2017 2:23 PM - Xyaminou: yes the shoutbox is fucking retarded
Jan 13, 2017 2:23 PM - Xyaminou: also no I'm not gonna pay for Empires development.
Jan 13, 2017 2:47 PM - vipervicki: viper nubs and epic servers cost thousands over the years..very few if any donations.
Jan 13, 2017 2:54 PM - Xyaminou: so does living and I don't get any donations for that either.
Jan 13, 2017 2:54 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: i just obliged myself to a post exam beer someone tell flasche i will be late
Jan 13, 2017 2:55 PM - Xyaminou: Hey Flasche, destroyer will be late
Jan 13, 2017 2:56 PM - Xyaminou: you're welcome.
Jan 13, 2017 3:08 PM - vipervicki: you lving doesnt give us anyhting for free
Jan 13, 2017 3:08 PM - vipervicki: but glad u r living anyway
Jan 13, 2017 3:42 PM - Lazybum: I look at it as buying one less donut a month
Jan 13, 2017 3:43 PM - Lazybum: or something to that effect, a lot of tiny donations is just as nice as one big one I assume
Jan 13, 2017 4:15 PM - Kidpaler: Hey, the goal is reached on Patreon. Now, perhaps, any extra can go to Advertising?
Jan 13, 2017 4:16 PM - Kidpaler: Wait a second, this is the third time they have raised the goal from $1, $10, now $42.... At this rate, when will the full time development goal be made?
Jan 13, 2017 4:21 PM - Lazybum: Those goals are for different things though.
Jan 13, 2017 4:21 PM - VulcanStorm: yup. it says that.
Jan 13, 2017 4:22 PM - Kidpaler: Yea I know, but since the goals keep increasing, how much is full time development?
Jan 13, 2017 4:22 PM - VulcanStorm: You can't.
Jan 13, 2017 4:22 PM - VulcanStorm: We aren't paid
Jan 13, 2017 4:23 PM - VulcanStorm: Its there to pay for the things that the whole community benefits from
Jan 13, 2017 4:23 PM - VulcanStorm: like the domain name
Jan 13, 2017 4:23 PM - VulcanStorm: and the forums
Jan 13, 2017 4:24 PM - VulcanStorm: previously, thexa4 was paying for all this...
Jan 13, 2017 4:25 PM - Neoony: about time
Jan 13, 2017 4:25 PM - Neoony: to make something like that
Jan 13, 2017 4:25 PM - VulcanStorm: and more recently, our git server, and build servers
Jan 13, 2017 4:25 PM - Kidpaler: No no, VUlcan, I think you misunderstand. I want a joke goal. Or they should increase the goal a bit to include some advertising
Jan 13, 2017 4:26 PM - Neoony: now we just gotta hope the extra money wont be abused
Jan 13, 2017 4:26 PM - Kidpaler: I think they said extra goes towards advertising
Jan 13, 2017 4:26 PM - VulcanStorm: it could be, or whatever will benefit the game as a whole
Jan 13, 2017 4:26 PM - VulcanStorm: advertising was one example
Jan 13, 2017 4:27 PM - Neoony: to "say" is one thing
Jan 13, 2017 4:28 PM - Neoony: Just kidding though...most current devs seem reasonable
Jan 13, 2017 4:28 PM - Kidpaler: advertising would be a long payoff i think
Jan 13, 2017 4:28 PM - VulcanStorm: well... if people are willing to make adverts, i'm sure we can get them put out there
Jan 13, 2017 4:28 PM - Kidpaler: there are some already
Jan 13, 2017 4:28 PM - Neoony: Yeah, we had ad put up once
Jan 13, 2017 4:29 PM - Neoony: for way too short though
Jan 13, 2017 4:29 PM - Neoony: and god knows where was it aimed
Jan 13, 2017 40 PM - Kidpaler: Ad pays off in the long run. Before one should be run, we should figure out what all draws us to this game, do some polls to figure out where to target it.
Jan 13, 2017 40 PM - Neoony: also, Is there a way to check who is a patreon?
Jan 13, 2017 40 PM - Kidpaler: Get more people interested, get more people into the community, get more patreon for more ads or more developers
Jan 13, 2017 41 PM - Xyaminou: I'm just wondering why it hasn't been done before to be honest
Jan 13, 2017 41 PM - Neoony: yeah
Jan 13, 2017 42 PM - Xyaminou: most if not all mods I've ever played no matter what games they're based on have a patreon
Jan 13, 2017 42 PM - Neoony: scared of the harsh community maybe
Jan 13, 2017 42 PM - Neoony: but this seems done pretty well
Jan 13, 2017 42 PM - Neoony: better than just simple donations
Jan 13, 2017 42 PM - Xyaminou: Complex for Homeworld for example has a small community and still ends up paying all the bills necessary for a good development
Jan 13, 2017 43 PM - Xyaminou: well that's just a terrible excuse, what's the worse that can happen? people don't donate.
Jan 13, 2017 44 PM - Xyaminou: Anyway... now that it's done, add more goals, and advertise it.
Jan 13, 2017 44 PM - Kidpaler: Exactly. But imagine if this game gets enough for ads and we figure out a group to target and the community grows. We ALL benefit from that and the good ole Empires comes back with many full servers
Jan 13, 2017 44 PM - Kidpaler: WIll that happen. Probably not.
Jan 13, 2017 45 PM - Xyaminou: You'd be surprised...
Jan 13, 2017 46 PM - Neoony: oh, after posting a "post" on patreon, I can see who else is a patreon
Jan 13, 2017 46 PM - Kidpaler: Well, I signed up to donate. If more do, thats more money to be spent improving the game even if its a $1.
Jan 13, 2017 47 PM - Neoony: well mostly, this can secure empires even if the dev decided to not pay for it suddenly
Jan 13, 2017 48 PM - Kidpaler: Not really. If Creeper decides to drop his server then were still kinda fucked. Not saying he is but just saying we aren't 100% in the clear.
Jan 13, 2017 48 PM - Xyaminou: does that mean we can have a non-shitty forums now?
Jan 13, 2017 49 PM - Neoony: then I would make a patreon for a dedi server
Jan 13, 2017 4:40 PM - Xyaminou: do it
Jan 13, 2017 4:40 PM - Neoony: but dedicated is like 70-80€ a month D:
Jan 13, 2017 4:40 PM - Neoony: didnt find any shared server options for empires
Jan 13, 2017 4:41 PM - Neoony: Although I know some hostings who were open to support shared servers for unknown games in a long time history
Jan 13, 2017 4:42 PM - Neoony: not sure whats their standing on it now
Jan 13, 2017 4:42 PM - Neoony: which would put it somewhere into 30-40€ range
Jan 13, 2017 4:43 PM - Kidpaler: Well nonetheless, I wanna know how much it would be for advertisements and then they should make a goal with advertisements. ANd fill the patreon informattion up a bit more maybe
Jan 13, 2017 4:43 PM - Xyaminou: anyway I still don't believe in Empires' development
Jan 13, 2017 4:43 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: going back to a previous thing, a developer's annual cost in the west is somewhere around
Jan 13, 2017 4:44 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: 100k a year
Jan 13, 2017 4:44 PM - Paradox: xya can u take your xanax/zanax what ever anti depressants you have going there
Jan 13, 2017 4:44 PM - Paradox: and just like double the dose
Jan 13, 2017 4:44 PM - Paradox: so you can stfu already
Jan 13, 2017 4:44 PM - Neoony: ahahahahah
Jan 13, 2017 4:44 PM - Paradox: if you dont wanna pay dont
Jan 13, 2017 4:44 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: that covers his wage and program licenses and everything else they need to work
Jan 13, 2017 4:44 PM - Paradox: stop telling others to not pay
Jan 13, 2017 4:44 PM - Paradox: we know you a cheap ass shit
Jan 13, 2017 4:44 PM - Xyaminou: I didn't tell anyone not to pay
Jan 13, 2017 4:44 PM - Paradox: you dont have to justify being cheap as shit
Jan 13, 2017 4:44 PM - Paradox: telling others you dont believe in empires development
Jan 13, 2017 4:44 PM - Paradox: is telling a voter that you dont believe in obama
Jan 13, 2017 4:45 PM - Paradox: but hey dont let me not believeing in obama influence you
Jan 13, 2017 4:45 PM - Xyaminou: so?
Jan 13, 2017 4:45 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: i'd pay if i had steady income, as it stands i'm hesitant to do it
Jan 13, 2017 4:45 PM - Paradox: how about you dont talk about you not believing in obama the first place
Jan 13, 2017 4:45 PM - Paradox: cause it doesnt fucking matter what you believe
Jan 13, 2017 4:45 PM - Paradox: if it helps keep this game running it helps
Jan 13, 2017 4:45 PM - Paradox: noone is asking for your oppinion if empires development is a good cause or not
Jan 13, 2017 4:45 PM - Xyaminou: so, no freedom of speech on here, got it.
Jan 13, 2017 4:45 PM - Paradox: the developers are litterally coming to us
Jan 13, 2017 4:46 PM - Paradox: on their knees
Jan 13, 2017 4:46 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: thats a fallacy
Jan 13, 2017 4:46 PM - Paradox: pleeding for money
Jan 13, 2017 4:46 PM - Xyaminou: we're back to the old prohibition on the forums, nice
Jan 13, 2017 4:46 PM - Paradox: and you are like I dont believe in you guys
Jan 13, 2017 4:46 PM - Paradox: who the fuck cares
Jan 13, 2017 4:46 PM - Kidpaler: I chipped in a bit. If others chipped in $1-2 and everyone did it then that'd add up to quite a bit.
Jan 13, 2017 4:46 PM - Paradox: if they come begging
Jan 13, 2017 4:46 PM - Paradox: Im going to give
Jan 13, 2017 4:46 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: freedom of speech means you take full responsibility for whatever you say, not that you csn freely say everything
Jan 13, 2017 4:46 PM - Paradox: Ive never seen any empires person beg for money
Jan 13, 2017 4:46 PM - Paradox: and they are right now so Im going to give it to them
Jan 13, 2017 4:46 PM - Paradox: not because I "beleive"in empires development
Jan 13, 2017 4:46 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: which means "spread shit, get shit" as senor once put it
Jan 13, 2017 4:47 PM - Paradox: but because I played this game for almost 10 years
Jan 13, 2017 4:47 PM - Paradox: and its worth the money
Jan 13, 2017 4:47 PM - Paradox: you payed for games before
Jan 13, 2017 4:47 PM - Paradox: its not because this game is free it doesnt deserve money
Jan 13, 2017 4:47 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: come on, you call that begging? >_>
Jan 13, 2017 4:47 PM - Paradox: you dont have to pay if you dont have any
Jan 13, 2017 4:47 PM - Paradox: and you dont have to pay if you do
Jan 13, 2017 4:47 PM - Paradox: but stfu about not believing in empires development to make up a shitty excuse not to pay
Jan 13, 2017 4:47 PM - Xyaminou: I've payed for games whose development I believe in.
Jan 13, 2017 4:47 PM - Paradox: cause thats just fucking disgusting to do
Jan 13, 2017 4:48 PM - Paradox: YOU PAY FOR GAMES TO SPEND YOUR FREE TIME
Jan 13, 2017 4:48 PM - Xyaminou: lol I don't need excuses not to pay
Jan 13, 2017 4:48 PM - Paradox: PLAYING IT INSTEAD OF JACKING OFF XYA
Jan 13, 2017 4:48 PM - Kidpaler: Paradox, pls no caps
Jan 13, 2017 4:48 PM - Paradox: PRETTY SURE YOU SPEND MORE TIME ON EMPIRES THEN ANY OTHER GAMES
Jan 13, 2017 4:48 PM - Paradox: DT STFU XYA IS PISSING ME OFF
Jan 13, 2017 4:48 PM - Xyaminou: hmm, wrong.
Jan 13, 2017 4:48 PM - Neoony: I thought its paying for the game to stay alive...not development
Jan 13, 2017 4:48 PM - Paradox: HE PAYS FOR GAMES HE BELIEVES IN DEVELOPMENT? WHAT A FUCKING JOKE
Jan 13, 2017 4:48 PM - Paradox: NEXT THING HE SAYS IS HE PAYS FOR GAME FOR THE GREAT DETAIL IN GRASS ANIMATION
Jan 13, 2017 4:49 PM - Xyaminou: I think I triggered paradox
Jan 13, 2017 4:49 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: the first two goals are basically "keep empires alive"
Jan 13, 2017 4:49 PM - Xyaminou: And yeah the patreon may be to keep the game alive, which makes what Paradox is saying pointless.
Jan 13, 2017 4:49 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: the third goal is "make sure empires progresses instead of just existing"
Jan 13, 2017 4:50 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: because just existing isn't gonna cut it
Jan 13, 2017 4:50 PM - Xyaminou: because my "I don't believe in Empires development" was not related to the patreon at all.
Jan 13, 2017 4:50 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: i'm almost hurt by that
Jan 13, 2017 4:50 PM - Kidpaler: I just wanna say, if you have gotten thousands of hours of entertainment out of this game, like me, then I have no problem contributing. It's been free the entire time, I have gotten enjoyment, it's time to pay my fair share.
Jan 13, 2017 4:50 PM - Neoony: which still wont help devs to put any more effort into it
Jan 13, 2017 4:50 PM - Kidpaler: I've paid $120 for Battlefield and its expansions and haven't played them nearly as much as Empires
Jan 13, 2017 4:50 PM - Xyaminou: but hey I'll just say, DONATE TO THE PATREON
Jan 13, 2017 4:50 PM - Xyaminou: see
Jan 13, 2017 4:50 PM - Paradox: NOONE NEEDS YOU TO SAY SHIT
Jan 13, 2017 4:50 PM - Kidpaler: So I feel like it's worth it to me.
Jan 13, 2017 4:50 PM - Paradox: BUT SAYING YOU DONT BELIEVE IN EMPIRES DEVELOPMENT
Jan 13, 2017 4:50 PM - Paradox: AT THE SAME TIME
Jan 13, 2017 4:50 PM - Paradox: AS THAT THREAD
Jan 13, 2017 4:51 PM - Paradox: MAKES YOU SOUND LIKE A FUCKING CHEAP ASS CUNT
Jan 13, 2017 4:51 PM - Paradox: JUST SAYING
Jan 13, 2017 4:51 PM - Xyaminou: so?
Jan 13, 2017 4:51 PM - Paradox: Atleast own up to your mistake
Jan 13, 2017 4:51 PM - Xyaminou: is that your entire point? 'cause I really couldn't care less that people think that.
Jan 13, 2017 4:51 PM - Xyaminou: own up by doing what? admitting that I'm an arrogant cheap asshole?
Jan 13, 2017 4:51 PM - Xyaminou: have you met me?
Jan 13, 2017 4:52 PM - Paradox: Own up that you used a stupid excuse
Jan 13, 2017 4:52 PM - Neoony: He is free to share his melancholic opinions, lol
Jan 13, 2017 4:52 PM - Xyaminou: if anyone thinks I'm actually a nice person they clearly haven't met me.
Jan 13, 2017 4:52 PM - Paradox: He can shove his melancholic opinions up his ass, he was using it as a pathetic excuse
Jan 13, 2017 4:52 PM - Xyaminou: just because you think this is an excuse doesn't make it one.
Jan 13, 2017 4:52 PM - Paradox: and now hes just deflecting
Jan 13, 2017 4:52 PM - Paradox: aight
Jan 13, 2017 4:52 PM - Xyaminou: you want a cheap ass excuse? I don't have a job, there.
Jan 13, 2017 4:53 PM - Paradox: im out he aint gun admit to it and own up to his mistake
Jan 13, 2017 4:53 PM - Paradox: We know you a cheap ass, but my point is
Jan 13, 2017 4:53 PM - Xyaminou: lol
Jan 13, 2017 4:53 PM - Paradox: you had to use an excuse
Jan 13, 2017 4:53 PM - Xyaminou: your point is invalid
Jan 13, 2017 4:53 PM - Paradox: noone needed you to use an excus enot to pay
Jan 13, 2017 4:53 PM - Paradox: to pay is your own choise
Jan 13, 2017 4:53 PM - Paradox: but putting out some shitty ass excuse
Jan 13, 2017 4:53 PM - Paradox: is worse
Jan 13, 2017 4:53 PM - Paradox: Its like when my mom cooks food and I ate all the candy behind her back so Im full
Jan 13, 2017 4:54 PM - Xyaminou: you do realise, like, literally every day I say something like "all your ideas for Empires are stupid and devs don't have a single good idea"
Jan 13, 2017 4:54 PM - Paradox: instead of saying that
Jan 13, 2017 4:54 PM - Paradox: or saying im not hungry
Jan 13, 2017 4:54 PM - Xyaminou: but because I said it today
Jan 13, 2017 4:54 PM - Paradox: I go, hey mom your food sucks Im not going to eat it
Jan 13, 2017 4:54 PM - Xyaminou: you're fully triggered.
Jan 13, 2017 4:54 PM - Paradox: grow some ballz
Jan 13, 2017 4:54 PM - Paradox: own up to it
Jan 13, 2017 4:54 PM - vipervicki: yeah but no other devs ever asked for money and server owners dont ask for money.so I dont blame X
Jan 13, 2017 4:54 PM - Xyaminou: grow some brain
Jan 13, 2017 4:54 PM - Kidpaler: I don't blame X.
Jan 13, 2017 4:54 PM - Paradox: Noone blames xya for not giving money
Jan 13, 2017 4:54 PM - Paradox: Im blaming him for spouting out a stupid excuse
Jan 13, 2017 4:55 PM - Xyaminou: you're obsessing
Jan 13, 2017 4:55 PM - Paradox: yall dont get the point even with my great analogy
Jan 13, 2017 4:55 PM - Xyaminou: you do that a lot it seems.
Jan 13, 2017 4:55 PM - Neoony: lol
Jan 13, 2017 4:55 PM - Xyaminou: yesterday it was over some noob, now it's over something just as meaningless.
Jan 13, 2017 4:55 PM - vipervicki: no one shud be shame dinto giving money
Jan 13, 2017 4:55 PM - vipervicki: shamed*
Jan 13, 2017 4:56 PM - Paradox: Im not shaming him into giving money
Jan 13, 2017 4:56 PM - Paradox: noone is getting the actual point here
Jan 13, 2017 4:56 PM - Xyaminou: if you think anyone can shame me into doing anything, you don't know me.
Jan 13, 2017 4:56 PM - Kidpaler: I see what you're saying paradox
Jan 13, 2017 4:56 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: this discussion is a solid 5/7
Jan 13, 2017 4:56 PM - Paradox: Should I retype my analogy
Jan 13, 2017 4:56 PM - Paradox: cause I thought it was pretty great
Jan 13, 2017 4:56 PM - Xyaminou: lol
Jan 13, 2017 4:56 PM - Kidpaler: Did you have popcorn while watching DDD or was it not at popcorn levels?
Jan 13, 2017 4:56 PM - vipervicki: im mroe refrring to your psot paradox
Jan 13, 2017 4:56 PM - vipervicki: about shaming people into doanting
Jan 13, 2017 4:57 PM - Xyaminou: it's okay I'm bored, Empires drama is always entertaining
Jan 13, 2017 4:57 PM - D.D.D. Destroyer: i just came home from a beer and a pizza is on its way so no popcorn
Jan 13, 2017 4:57 PM - Paradox: Which post?
Jan 13, 2017 4:57 PM - Paradox: ow that one
Jan 13, 2017 4:57 PM - vipervicki: All u shits out there that have played this game for free all these years bettet do something now it really needs us. Dont be that fjcking bypasser thats looking at the unconscious guy on the floor walking by you fucks.
Jan 13, 2017 4:57 PM - Xyaminou: what do you mean which post, it's pretty obvious which one she's referring to.
Jan 13, 2017 4:57 PM - Paradox: I was overdramatizing there
Jan 13, 2017 4:57 PM - Xyaminou: although it really doesn't matter at all
Jan 13, 2017 4:58 PM - Neoony: and connect that post to the one before it
Jan 13, 2017 4:58 PM - Neoony: just funny
Jan 13, 2017 4:58 PM - Paradox: to get across the point that empires is lying on the floor almost dead
Jan 13, 2017 4:58 PM - vipervicki: well its tyring to shame people to donate copuld u imagine if i did that or trickster or thecreeper
Jan 13, 2017 4:58 PM - Xyaminou: and I doubt anyone on these forums do anything because of anything posted by other people.
Jan 13, 2017 4:58 PM - Paradox: Id give u money
Jan 13, 2017 4:58 PM - Xyaminou: especially Paradox
Jan 13, 2017 4:58 PM - vipervicki: true but jsut not the way to go
Jan 13, 2017 4:58 PM - Paradox: if anyone in the community that has actually put in real life skin
Jan 13, 2017 4:58 PM - Paradox: id help u guys out
Jan 13, 2017 4:58 PM - vipervicki: u never did in almsot 6 years
Jan 13, 2017 4:58 PM - Paradox: noone asked for it
Jan 13, 2017 4:58 PM - Paradox: like tama did
Jan 13, 2017 4:59 PM - Xyaminou: vicki there isn't good or bad
Jan 13, 2017 4:59 PM - Paradox: just now
Jan 13, 2017 4:59 PM - Neoony: oh wait, u shit edited that post
Jan 13, 2017 4:59 PM - Xyaminou: just people
Jan 13, 2017 4:59 PM - vipervicki: i didnt think we had to explain dedi boxes arent free lol
Jan 13, 2017 4:59 PM - vipervicki: but
Jan 13, 2017 4:59 PM - Kidpaler: Well I mean, there isn't a clear "donate" button for Viper or NUBS that I recall
Jan 13, 2017 4:59 PM - Xyaminou: everything is free if you have enough money.
Jan 13, 2017 4:59 PM - vipervicki: did it cause i wanted to contribute and kept doing it without doantions i never expected anyone to doante
Jan 13, 2017 4:59 PM - Kidpaler: So it doesn't seem that there is an option to donate without jumping through a lot of hoops
Jan 13, 2017 5:00 PM - Xyaminou: also most people who run Empires servers already had the server for their personal use
Jan 13, 2017 5:00 PM - Paradox: I kinda just thought you and trickster had enough money otherwise you wouldve actually said something no? Also trickster is rich as fuck
Jan 13, 2017 5:00 PM - vipervicki: not true x
Jan 13, 2017 5:00 PM - Xyaminou: and running the Empires server on their machines cost practically 0 performance
Jan 13, 2017 5:00 PM - Xyaminou: so it's more about time invested into it.
Jan 13, 2017 5:00 PM - vipervicki: only thigns on my dedi which cost me 240 amonth for msot of the eyars was empires crap
Jan 13, 2017 5:00 PM - vipervicki: years
Jan 13, 2017 5:00 PM - Xyaminou: Well then you're doing it wrong.
Jan 13, 2017 5:00 PM - vipervicki: then last 2 years i bargianed with my host and cut it in half
Jan 13, 2017 5:01 PM - vipervicki: i had no use for anyhting on my dedi besides empires
Jan 13, 2017 5:01 PM - Xyaminou: you don't buy a dedi server to run a single Empires server
Jan 13, 2017 5:01 PM - Xyaminou: well like I said, you're doing it wrong.
Jan 13, 2017 5:01 PM - vipervicki: i had 1 v1 main viper, practice server and scrim server
Jan 13, 2017 5:01 PM - vipervicki: empires needs a core by itself
Jan 13, 2017 5:01 PM - vipervicki: so cant really add too much
Jan 13, 2017 5:01 PM - Xyaminou: lol big deal
Jan 13, 2017 5:01 PM - Neoony: 240??
Jan 13, 2017 5:02 PM - Paradox: I forgot xya had years of empires hosting experience under his belt
Jan 13, 2017 5:02 PM - vipervicki: yeah
Jan 13, 2017 5:02 PM - vipervicki: when i wa spart of g4tc it cost 240
Jan 13, 2017 5:02 PM - Neoony: what kind of dedi was that?
Jan 13, 2017 5:02 PM - Xyaminou: on a 240€ server you have like 8 cores 16 thread at leat
Jan 13, 2017 5:02 PM - vipervicki: for my dedi
Jan 13, 2017 5:02 PM - Xyaminou: Paradox please
Jan 13, 2017 5:02 PM - vipervicki: usa is alot more expensive
Jan 13, 2017 5:02 PM - Xyaminou: common sense, do you have it?
Jan 13, 2017 5:02 PM - Paradox: I think I have more than you
Jan 13, 2017 5:02 PM - vipervicki: then when i got stuck with the bill by msyelf i downgraded to duo 189
Jan 13, 2017 5:02 PM - Xyaminou: sorry for being smart enough to figure things out...
Jan 13, 2017 5:03 PM - vipervicki: then went bk up to quad dedi box but thye gave me a small discount
Jan 13, 2017 5:03 PM - Paradox: Clearly not smart enough if you think theoretical knowledge supercedes practical
Jan 13, 2017 5:03 PM - Xyaminou: lol yeah okay
Jan 13, 2017 5:03 PM - Xyaminou: ask trickster, ask napalm
Jan 13, 2017 5:03 PM - Xyaminou: ask anyone who knows what the fuck they were doing with their dedi
Jan 13, 2017 5:04 PM - Xyaminou: Empires wasn't the only thing they were running on it by far
Jan 13, 2017 5:04 PM - vipervicki: trickster ran all the empires stuff on his 1 dedi
Jan 13, 2017 5:04 PM - vipervicki: svn
Jan 13, 2017 5:04 PM - Xyaminou: just because you're pissed at me Paradox isn't a reason to suddenly become stupid and deny everything I say
Jan 13, 2017 5:04 PM - vipervicki: giothub
Jan 13, 2017 5:04 PM - vipervicki: rums
Jan 13, 2017 5:04 PM - vipervicki: epic
Jan 13, 2017 5:04 PM - vipervicki: forums
Jan 13, 2017 5:04 PM - Paradox: Trickster ran a ts3 and a gmod server on it lol
Jan 13, 2017 5:04 PM - Paradox: and occasionally his movie night
Jan 13, 2017 5:04 PM - vipervicki: me i only had empires stuff and a ts
Jan 13, 2017 5:05 PM - Xyaminou: he ran tons more stuff you guys don't even know about
Jan 13, 2017 5:05 PM - Xyaminou: because that's what you do if you have a dedi
Jan 13, 2017 5:05 PM - Xyaminou: you use it
Jan 13, 2017 5:05 PM - Paradox: Lol
Jan 13, 2017 5:05 PM - vipervicki: i had no more cores left
Jan 13, 2017 5:05 PM - Xyaminou: you don't just use 13% of the fucking performance
Jan 13, 2017 5:05 PM - Paradox: Thats such a donald trump argument
Jan 13, 2017 5:05 PM - vipervicki: sicne empires needs its own
Jan 13, 2017 5:05 PM - Neoony: you could get a dedi and make a small shared server service
Jan 13, 2017 5:05 PM - Paradox: You guys have no clue, he actually ran a lot of things. A lot of important things.
Jan 13, 2017 5:05 PM - Neoony: for empires
Jan 13, 2017 5:05 PM - Paradox: Continue to not specify
Jan 13, 2017 5:06 PM - Paradox: because you dont actually know if he ran more things or not
Jan 13, 2017 5:06 PM - Xyaminou: like I said, ask him.
Jan 13, 2017 5:06 PM - vipervicki: not sure why the devs now dont use a dedi for everyhting like trickster did
Jan 13, 2017 5:06 PM - Paradox: You should go into politics
Jan 13, 2017 5:06 PM - vipervicki: it shud save them moeny
Jan 13, 2017 5:06 PM - vipervicki: in euro dedis are cheap compared to usa
Jan 13, 2017 5:07 PM - Neoony: save? I mean it seems they are currently fine with 42$ a month
Jan 13, 2017 5:07 PM - Xyaminou: this conversation has become boring
Jan 13, 2017 5:07 PM - Neoony: dedi would cost like 100$
Jan 13, 2017 5:07 PM - Paradox: yeah cause yer shit argument got rekt DT from F
Jan 13, 2017 5:07 PM - Paradox: FR*
Jan 13, 2017 5:07 PM - vipervicki: ifits all that costs them is 45 bucks thats dirt cheap hell iwish viper was that cheap lol
Jan 13, 2017 5:08 PM - Neoony: well check the patreon goals
Jan 13, 2017 5:08 PM - vipervicki: anyway people donate or not it up to each perosn no one shud get on someone who doeasnt want to
Jan 13, 2017 5:08 PM - Neoony: seems thats all
Jan 13, 2017 5:08 PM - Lazybum: chat going to fast, send me better eyes to read plz
Jan 13, 2017 5:08 PM - vipervicki: lol lazy
Jan 13, 2017 5:08 PM - Neoony: bad eye fps
Jan 13, 2017 5:08 PM - Neoony: lul
Jan 13, 2017 5:10 PM - vipervicki: trickster did paradox i know for a fact what he ran
Jan 13, 2017 5:11 PM - vipervicki: but he had 8 cores i only had 4 and each one for deciated to an empires server
Jan 13, 2017 5:11 PM - vipervicki: cant really put anyhting else on a core with empires
Jan 13, 2017 5:12 PM - vipervicki: dedicated
Jan 13, 2017 5:12 PM - vipervicki: his 8 cores was less money than my quad its so expensive in the states here
Jan 13, 2017 5:16 PM - Xyaminou: so what you're saying is that you were paying way more just to have a better ping...
Jan 13, 2017 5:17 PM - vipervicki: no I was paying way more to havea serve rin USA sicne epic was in euro
Jan 13, 2017 5:17 PM - Thexa4: We use a dedi to host gitlab
Jan 13, 2017 5:17 PM - vipervicki: maericans need a server too ya know
Jan 13, 2017 5:17 PM - Thexa4: websites are hosted on a shared host
Jan 13, 2017 5:17 PM - vipervicki: americans
Jan 13, 2017 5:17 PM - Xyaminou: I don't actually vicki
Jan 13, 2017 5:17 PM - Thexa4: if anyone needs a shared empires server send me a pm, I have something like that set up
Jan 13, 2017 5:17 PM - Xyaminou: because there is currently no european server
Jan 13, 2017 5:18 PM - Xyaminou: so I don't see why they actually need a server.
Jan 13, 2017 5:18 PM - Neoony: hmm
Jan 13, 2017 5:18 PM - Thexa4: my servers are european
Jan 13, 2017 5:18 PM - Neoony: I was considering getting a shared server
Jan 13, 2017 5:18 PM - vipervicki: dont u recall all the maoning on epic and epic on vioper
Jan 13, 2017 5:18 PM - Neoony: but there were no options
Jan 13, 2017 5:18 PM - vipervicki: shared server wont work well with empires
Jan 13, 2017 5:18 PM - Xyaminou: so?
Jan 13, 2017 5:18 PM - vipervicki: well at least it didnt years ago
Jan 13, 2017 5:18 PM - Xyaminou: who gives a shit about people complaining
Jan 13, 2017 5:19 PM - vipervicki: then no point having a server if u make people unhappy
Jan 13, 2017 5:19 PM - Thexa4: it would be a VPS on a shared machine
Jan 13, 2017 5:19 PM - vipervicki: viper was for the players not me
Jan 13, 2017 5:19 PM - Xyaminou: people make themselves unhappy
Jan 13, 2017 5:19 PM - Xyaminou: they don't need your help for that
Jan 13, 2017 5:19 PM - Thexa4: not actual sharing in empires code
Jan 13, 2017 5:19 PM - vipervicki: well having amsircans only playing with 100 plus pings was notmy idea of running a good server
Jan 13, 2017 5:20 PM - Xyaminou: well hey it's your money to waste.
Jan 13, 2017 5:20 PM - vipervicki: yup and I did waste it alot of it
Jan 13, 2017 5:20 PM - vipervicki: not anymore tho i did my part
Jan 13, 2017 5:20 PM - vipervicki: but msotly was happy to
Jan 13, 2017 5:23 PM - Neoony: And I thank you
Jan 13, 2017 5:24 PM - vipervicki:
Jan 13, 2017 5:29 PM - vipervicki: i dont have a server anymore X nubs is not mine
Jan 13, 2017 5:29 PM - vipervicki: epic shut down after I shut down viper
Jan 13, 2017 54 PM - Paradox: the donation limit has already been reached thats nice!
Jan 13, 2017 54 PM - Thexa4: It's not a limit
Jan 13, 2017 55 PM - Thexa4: but this should cover our recurring costs
Jan 13, 2017 55 PM - Paradox: "goal"
Jan 13, 2017 55 PM - Paradox: also give us donator emojis
Jan 13, 2017 55 PM - Paradox: I want some perks
Jan 13, 2017 55 PM - Paradox: atleast fix my tittle :*
Jan 13, 2017 55 PM - Thexa4: I understand you do but making perks would cost us quite a lot of time
Jan 13, 2017 56 PM - Thexa4: What is the problem with your title?
Jan 13, 2017 56 PM - Paradox: It ends on wo
Jan 13, 2017 56 PM - Paradox: instead of work lol
Jan 13, 2017 56 PM - Paradox: thats super frustrating
Jan 13, 2017 56 PM - Paradox: With perks it can be small server things too. Like chat color, make in shoutbox have standard color and if you donate you get to choose color
Jan 13, 2017 56 PM - Paradox: super small almost no work stuff
Jan 13, 2017 57 PM - Paradox: just to incentivise,
Jan 13, 2017 57 PM - Paradox: doesnt have to be ingame at al
Jan 13, 2017 57 PM - Thexa4: The following error occurred: Please enter a value using 50 characters or fewer.
Jan 13, 2017 57 PM - Paradox: fuck knew it was going to be that
Jan 13, 2017 57 PM - Thexa4: those things are actually quite hard
Jan 13, 2017 57 PM - Paradox: they are?
Jan 13, 2017 57 PM - Paradox: Those things sound really easy hahaha
Jan 13, 2017 59 PM - Kidpaler: it was whem i used to run a minecraft server and it wasnt hard for tf2
Jan 13, 2017 59 PM - Thexa4: https://xkcd.com/1425/
Jan 13, 2017 59 PM - Kidpaler: wasnt*
Jan 13, 2017 59 PM - Thexa4: I might be wrong
Jan 13, 2017 5:40 PM - Lazybum: I think the tricky part is hooking up the donation system to that stuff right?
Jan 13, 2017 5:40 PM - Paradox: why do you need to hook it up
Jan 13, 2017 5:40 PM - Thexa4: that would probably be manual yes
Jan 13, 2017 5:40 PM - Paradox: manually give members rights
Jan 13, 2017 5:40 PM - Paradox: no?
Jan 13, 2017 5:40 PM - Kidpaler: yea, when i was a community leader we just did it manually because no one wanted toautomate
Jan 13, 2017 5:41 PM - Lazybum: oh, still it would be a bit annoying to see chat color not your team
Jan 13, 2017 5:41 PM - Lazybum: you'd end up ignoring it thinking it wasn't someone from your team
Jan 13, 2017 5:41 PM - Kidpaler: ^
Jan 13, 2017 5:42 PM - Paradox: are you kidsd erp
Jan 13, 2017 5:42 PM - Paradox: I mean on this forum chat
Jan 13, 2017 5:42 PM - Paradox: like lazybum has a color
Jan 13, 2017 5:42 PM - Paradox: i didnt mean ingame
Jan 13, 2017 5:42 PM - Thexa4: That's on the bottom left of the chatbox, it doesn't have permission controls
Jan 13, 2017 5:43 PM - Kidpaler: lel. paradix you noob
Jan 13, 2017 5:43 PM - Paradox: I didnt know this shoutbox couldnt be controled by a forum god
Jan 13, 2017 5:43 PM - Paradox: well
Jan 13, 2017 5:43 PM - Paradox: GG then I suppose
Jan 13, 2017 5:43 PM - Paradox: obnoxious pink, my favorite color
Jan 13, 2017 5:44 PM - vipervicki: fushcia
Jan 13, 2017 5:44 PM - Kidpaler: thexa, how much would cheap advertising be for this game?
Jan 13, 2017 5:44 PM - Lazybum: 1 million peanuts
Jan 13, 2017 5:44 PM - vipervicki: make anewsletter and mass mail it thats free
Jan 13, 2017 5:44 PM - Paradox: where would you even adversite?
Jan 13, 2017 5:44 PM - Lazybum: so the elephants can do an interpretive dance of empires
Jan 13, 2017 5:45 PM - Lazybum: I remember dev trying to advertise on 4chan, he bought a banner ad
Jan 13, 2017 5:45 PM - Lazybum: devo I mean
Jan 13, 2017 5:45 PM - Kidpaler: devo did
Jan 13, 2017 5:45 PM - Lazybum: I think the cheapest one lasted like 1 day, maybe 2
Jan 13, 2017 5:45 PM - Tama: worked pretty well, we got a whole server full of channers
Jan 13, 2017 5:45 PM - vipervicki: make a webpage on one of your web hostings and advertise it and make sure the seo is good to get u on first page of google
Jan 13, 2017 5:45 PM - Lazybum: I know, someone get real famous then plug empires
Jan 13, 2017 5:46 PM - Lazybum: that's guarteed to work
Jan 13, 2017 5:46 PM - Kidpaler: tama, that was because of that 8chan post, not the 4chan ad
Jan 13, 2017 5:46 PM - Paradox: advertise on reddit
Jan 13, 2017 5:46 PM - vipervicki: lotta free ways to advertise
Jan 13, 2017 5:46 PM - Paradox: you can buy your subreddit into frontpage
Jan 13, 2017 5:46 PM - Kidpaler: there is actually free advertising on reddit... i sent specs to devo to make an ad
Jan 13, 2017 5:46 PM - vipervicki: frontpage the html editor? thats defunct
Jan 13, 2017 5:48 PM - Paradox: someone put up a billboard in downtown atlanta
Jan 13, 2017 5:49 PM - vipervicki: try and get them to stay chain em to the game getting new people isnt hard getting them to stay is
Jan 13, 2017 5:50 PM - vipervicki: thats where the real problem is
Jan 13, 2017 5:50 PM - Paradox: we get a team of rough empires players to go down there
Jan 13, 2017 5:50 PM - Paradox: and rough em up
Jan 13, 2017 5:50 PM - vipervicki: lol
Jan 13, 2017 5:51 PM - Paradox: maybe some extortion
Jan 13, 2017 5:51 PM - vipervicki: blackmail too
Jan 13, 2017 5:51 PM - Kidpaler: Real problem is the tutorial is thr worst piece of garbage ive seen in any game. It desperately needs to be redone.
Jan 13, 2017 5:51 PM - Xyaminou: aww paradox you so pink and cute
Jan 13, 2017 5:51 PM - Paradox: I like your enthousiasm to handle this DT thanks

 

Jan 13, 2017 at 5:51 PM - vipervicki: damn X is flirting with paradox now ive seen everyhting
Jan 13, 2017 at 5:52 PM - vipervicki: but seriously we dont have a new player problem we have a stay player problem
Jan 13, 2017 at 5:52 PM - vipervicki: so wasting money on advertising isnt gonna fix that
Jan 13, 2017 at 5:53 PM - Paradox: I dont think people want to stay to play empires not because its hard to learn
Jan 13, 2017 at 5:53 PM - Paradox: or you get flamed
Jan 13, 2017 at 5:53 PM - Paradox: its the availability to play
Jan 13, 2017 at 5:53 PM - Kidpaler: New tutorial. One that explains what to do, how to make a tank. Basics of commanding etc.
Jan 13, 2017 at 5:53 PM - Paradox: Having to wait till the weekends to play
Jan 13, 2017 at 5:53 PM - Paradox: instead of whenever you want
Jan 13, 2017 at 5:53 PM - Paradox: is a real dealbreaker for me
Jan 13, 2017 at 5:53 PM - Paradox: in any game
Jan 13, 2017 at 5:53 PM - Kidpaler: Quite a few reviews say the "tutorial isnt helpful"
Jan 13, 2017 at 5:54 PM - Kidpaler: The most in depth part of the tutorial is basics to an fps shooter. How to jump, shoot etc... thats sad.
Jan 13, 2017 at 5:54 PM - vipervicki: fix the tutorial get destoryers videos more visiblity
Jan 13, 2017 at 5:54 PM - vipervicki: his video shud be linke don home page
Jan 13, 2017 at 5:54 PM - vipervicki: no new wud even know about them
Jan 13, 2017 at 5:55 PM - vipervicki: newb*
Jan 13, 2017 at 5:55 PM - Neoony: some simple organized short video tutorials implemented into game might be more helpful than normal ingame tutorial
Jan 13, 2017 at 5:55 PM - Paradox: I would love to make a tutorial but I litterally dont know how to record
Jan 13, 2017 at 5:55 PM - Paradox: Id explain the fuck out of how you own bitches in empires
Jan 13, 2017 at 5:56 PM - vipervicki: concentrate on making the game moew neb friendly by giving them good tools to learn and more will stay providing the nasties keep their mouths shut
Jan 13, 2017 at 5:56 PM - Neoony: ugh, I can record...as long as you talk and prepare the tut
Jan 13, 2017 at 5:56 PM - Xyaminou: make a pink tutorial
Jan 13, 2017 at 5:56 PM - Xyaminou: with pink everywhere
Jan 13, 2017 at 5:56 PM - Paradox: hey now vicki stop targetting me
Jan 13, 2017 at 5:56 PM - vipervicki: didnt have u in mind lol
Jan 13, 2017 at 5:56 PM - Paradox: Im up for it neoony
Jan 13, 2017 at 5:56 PM - Xyaminou: stop targetting me!
Jan 13, 2017 at 5:56 PM - Xyaminou: oh wait
Jan 13, 2017 at 5:57 PM - vipervicki: hhaha
Jan 13, 2017 at 6:01 PM - Neoony: well, then make some plan and I should be ready for it....I should get a small server in a bit where we could do it
Jan 13, 2017 at 6:02 PM - Neoony: if you really really feel like it
Jan 13, 2017 at 6:12 PM - Paradox: Ok, btw why are u like permannetly offline on steam
Jan 13, 2017 at 6:56 PM - Kidpaler: No, not a recorded tutorial. The IN GAME tutorial needs a revamp.
Jan 13, 2017 at 6:56 PM - Kidpaler: Videos only do so much, you need to actually get the feel of the game while learning for it to mean anything,
Jan 13, 2017 at 7:02 PM - Avatarix: we need to ban everyone who swears so more kids will play it and it will be super cool
Jan 13, 2017 at 7:09 PM - Paradox: dt u aint gun stop us nigguh
Jan 13, 2017 at 7:11 PM - Kidpaler: Not trying to, just saying the overarching problem is the in game tutorial is the worst I have ever seen in any game ever
Jan 13, 2017 at 7:15 PM - Kidpaler: Avatarix, what the hell is up with your avatar. It's creepy.
Jan 13, 2017 at 7:16 PM - flasche: so its fitting isnt it?
Jan 13, 2017 at 7:17 PM - Kidpaler: https://www.humblebundle.com/store/dirt-showdown-free-game Hey guys, Dirt Showdown is Free on Humble Bundle right now for PC
Jan 13, 2017 at 7:18 PM - Kidpaler: So... pick up a free game.
Jan 13, 2017 at 7:19 PM - Avatarix: it is creepy and don't even try googling where it's from
Jan 13, 2017 at 7:19 PM - Avatarix: keyword: MOTH
Jan 13, 2017 at 7:21 PM - Kidpaler: Moth man creepy pasta?
Jan 13, 2017 at 7:26 PM - Avatarix: hell no, you dont see anime girls in it for sure
Jan 13, 2017 at 74 PM - Kidpaler: RIP Nintendo is charging for Online Multiplayer like Xbox and PS...
Jan 13, 2017 at 7:40 PM - VulcanStorm: Kidpaler, How many stands do you want in the barbed wire?
Jan 13, 2017 at 7:40 PM - VulcanStorm: i've got 1 at each end so far, with a cross bar
Jan 13, 2017 at 7:40 PM - Kidpaler: Stands as in where the barbed wire is attached too?
Jan 13, 2017 at 7:40 PM - VulcanStorm: as in those stake things in the picture
Jan 13, 2017 at 7:41 PM - VulcanStorm: the barbed wire isn't really "attached" so to speak
Jan 13, 2017 at 7:41 PM - VulcanStorm: but more like threaded round them
Jan 13, 2017 at 7:42 PM - Kidpaler: That's good, um.... Can you do like a short, medium, and long variation of the barbed wire? Short one having like 2-3, medium having more and long having a lot?
Jan 13, 2017 at 7:42 PM - Kidpaler: Or do you have a pic for me to visualize it?
Jan 13, 2017 at 7:42 PM - Kidpaler: I'm trying to think of scale how big the stands are compared to the barbed wire
Jan 13, 2017 at 7:43 PM - VulcanStorm: see that second picture
Jan 13, 2017 at 7:43 PM - VulcanStorm: that you posted
Jan 13, 2017 at 7:43 PM - VulcanStorm: its about that...
Jan 13, 2017 at 7:44 PM - Kidpaler: Okay, so the second one? Um. 3 of the stands for the small if that works
Jan 13, 2017 at 7:46 PM - VulcanStorm: ok
Jan 13, 2017 at 7:48 PM - Avatarix: http://www.westernfrontassociation....m/87-barbed-wire-on.html#sthash.tHwfxe6g.dpbs
Jan 13, 2017 at 8:58 PM - Neoony: hmm, now it shows only 3 patreons instead of 5, how it was...strange
Jan 13, 2017 at 8:59 PM - Neoony: this makes no sense: https://i.gyazo.com/76fdbec0caf88e7af09d08b517ad03e5.png
Jan 13, 2017 at 9:01 PM - Neoony: And its strange that I got to edit my post and confirm there, to see who is a patreon of empires, lol
Jan 13, 2017 at 9:47 PM - Xyaminou: who the hell donated 2 cents
Jan 13, 2017 at 9:47 PM - Xyaminou: .02
Jan 13, 2017 at 9:48 PM - PwnedYoAss: HAHA. That's god damned amazing.
Jan 13, 2017 at 9:49 PM - PwnedYoAss: Although it'd be a douche move to just donate 2 cents, I mean at least a dollar and two cents
Jan 13, 2017 at 9:50 PM - Tama: I'm guessing, Neoony, that the 3 is those who have already paid, and the 7 are those signed up to pay on the 1st of the next month
Jan 13, 2017 at 9:51 PM - Tama: but do feel free to send that as a bugreport to Patreon; it doesn't make much sense as it's written
Jan 13, 2017 at 9:53 PM - Kidpaler: The button also reads "Pay to pledge" which doesn't make sense. Should be "Pledge to pay
Jan 13, 2017 at 9:54 PM - Kidpaler: Well, it did
Jan 13, 2017 at 10:01 PM - vipervicki: do they take a fee out of the payment?
Jan 13, 2017 at 10:01 PM - vipervicki: that cud explain the 2 cents
Jan 13, 2017 at 10:02 PM - vipervicki: payment minus fee= weird amount
Jan 13, 2017 at 10:08 PM - Paradox: ow fuck I shouldnt have linked my fb to patreon
Jan 13, 2017 at 10:10 PM - vipervicki: lol
Jan 13, 2017 at 10:10 PM - Ranger: I was just considering signing up with my Facebook
Jan 13, 2017 at 10:10 PM - Ranger: You think I shouldn't? D:
Jan 13, 2017 at 10:10 PM - vipervicki: dont sing up anyhting with your fb login

Jan 13, 2017 at 10:12 PM - vipervicki: what?
Jan 13, 2017 at 10:12 PM - Paradox: on the contribution mfw
Jan 13, 2017 at 10:13 PM - vipervicki: figured there was a fee
Jan 13, 2017 at 10:13 PM - Paradox: if we could circumvent that and just send you money over paypal it wouldve been way better
Jan 13, 2017 at 10:13 PM - vipervicki: but the receiver shud pay it not the sender
Jan 13, 2017 at 10:13 PM - Paradox: like actually 10 times better
Jan 13, 2017 at 10:13 PM - vipervicki: paypla takes out a fee too
Jan 13, 2017 at 10:13 PM - flasche: vipervicki A moment ago - vipervicki: but the receiver shud pay it not the sender
Jan 13, 2017 at 10:13 PM - flasche: isnt that the same?

Jan 13, 2017 at 10:14 PM - flasche: because?
Jan 13, 2017 at 10:14 PM - Paradox: if the sender knows money is getting taken out theyll give less like I did
Jan 13, 2017 at 10:14 PM - Ranger: Taxing donations wot?
Jan 13, 2017 at 10:14 PM - flasche: 25% of 100€ is 25€ no matter who pays it
Jan 13, 2017 at 10:14 PM - Paradox: If I didnt know there was going to be money taken out, I wouldve give more
Jan 13, 2017 at 10:14 PM - vipervicki: becasue it coems out of your pocket
Jan 13, 2017 at 10:14 PM - Paradox: yeah but its better if you are ignorant
Jan 13, 2017 at 10:14 PM - vipervicki: so i fu wanna pay 25
Jan 13, 2017 at 10:14 PM - Paradox: ignorance is blyss
Jan 13, 2017 at 10:14 PM - vipervicki: your not

Jan 13, 2017 at 10:14 PM - vipervicki: if u not fu lol
Jan 13, 2017 at 10:14 PM - vipervicki: nope
Jan 13, 2017 at 10:15 PM - vipervicki: if the seller pays it come sout of what he gets
Jan 13, 2017 at 10:15 PM - vipervicki: when my partners paid their share of dedi they wud always pay more to cover the fee

Jan 13, 2017 at 10:17 PM - flasche: in tax i mean
Jan 13, 2017 at 10:17 PM - flasche: if i pay 100€ and the receipient pays 25% tax its 25€ payed form the same 100€
Jan 13, 2017 at 10:17 PM - flasche: its just a psychological difference

Jan 13, 2017 at 106 PM - Neoony: Tama have you got access to some API at patreon to use for automation with the forums?
Jan 13, 2017 at 106 PM - Neoony: seems people claim its only visible if you run some kind of campaign
Jan 13, 2017 at 106 PM - Neoony: not sure how they mean it
Jan 13, 2017 at 107 PM - Neoony: there are things like these https://github.com/Patreon/patreon-php
Jan 13, 2017 at 107 PM - Neoony: https://github.com/Patreon/patreon-python
Jan 13, 2017 at 108 PM - Neoony: meh, gotta google more

Jan 13, 2017 at 10:40 PM - Neoony: yum
Jan 13, 2017 at 10:40 PM - vipervicki: yah was good i was so hungry for some reason
Jan 13, 2017 at 10:42 PM - Xyaminou: what is it with americans and cheeseburgers
Jan 13, 2017 at 10:44 PM - vipervicki: lol its yummy
Jan 13, 2017 at 10:44 PM - vipervicki: The API presently has four main features: "Log in with Patreon" functionality to put on your website Your patrons can click a button on your site, and then your site gets to know whether or not they're a patron & how much they're pledging (along with profile photo, name, email, etc.) A "fetch me my patron's info plz" endpoint Get back a list of every patron currently pledging to you, along wit
Jan 13, 2017 at 10:45 PM - vipervicki: Some open source libraries that make integration easier live at: Patreon/patreon-python Patreon/patreon-ruby Patreon/patreon-java Patreon/patreon-php
Jan 13, 2017 at 10:45 PM - vipervicki: thye can put a button on here
Jan 13, 2017 at 10:46 PM - vipervicki: https://www.quora.com/Does-Patreon-com-have-an-official-API
Jan 13, 2017 at 10:47 PM - Neoony: yeh, but Iam more interested in making automated membership upgrades when donation on patreon
Jan 13, 2017 at 10:48 PM - Neoony: that would still need the xenforo plugin coded
Jan 13, 2017 at 10:48 PM - Neoony: but I will see what the guy from this threads last post tells me
Jan 13, 2017 at 10:48 PM - Neoony: https://xenforo.com/community/threads/patreon-user-upgrades-integration.113780/
Jan 13, 2017 at 10:49 PM - Neoony: I bet he will want money if he already has it coded
Jan 13, 2017 at 10:50 PM - vipervicki: most likely and I dont blame him for that
Jan 13, 2017 at 10:52 PM - Neoony: his every post contains "lets start a chat please" :D
Jan 13, 2017 at 11:01 PM - vipervicki: lol
Jan 13, 2017 at 11:02 PM - Neoony: obviously for business
Jan 13, 2017 at 11:16 PM - Neoony: lets see who will cancel the pledges before the 1st... XD
Jan 13, 2017 at 11:17 PM - Neoony: well there seems to be a purchase agreement on paypal...wonder how hard is it to cancel
Jan 13, 2017 at 11:17 PM - Neoony: not that I would want to
Jan 13, 2017 at 11:18 PM - Neoony: but I can just click cancel
Jan 13, 2017 at 11:18 PM - Neoony: and its 0$ reserved
Jan 14, 2017 at 12:22 AM - vipervicki: with paypal you can cancel I have done it
