Battleship Mode removed from Discovery

[gezza999]

Doh.. it made battles so much more realistic.. ah well.

BTW: DBoy's program thing worked really well.. but I guess I'll just delete it now.

Ok I still don't get how it caused a balance issue.:wacko:

I've been mildly miffed by one-shot weapons since their implementation, oh so long ago. I remember the days when fights were a matter of who could aim better, rather than who could aim a single shot. - Virus

It is a lot more realistic tho that when a fighter hits a capship gojng that fast its gona be severely damaged or even blow up.

what was the balance issue?

I'd also be interested in hearing about this "balance issue".

In all the testing I did, it seemed to improve playability in all ships.
Another favourable aspect is that it might have made the "no ramming" rule unnecessary. :unsure:

[MrSns]

I dont evan know how it works or what the pirpase of it is. What dose it do?

Darkness is a friend, an ally. Darkness allows us to understand others, to see what they value when they believe no one else is looking. It allows us to be honest with ourselves, to express those values that we would disavow in the light. The light blinds us. It is only in the dark that we see clearly, and there is a great dark hidden among these worlds

I'm never gonna use a battleship ever again, unless the BS mode is put back or an other solution comes up.
You can't play in a battleship without the BS mode.

I'm sure the people I've killed in my battleship will be relieved to read this! (j/k, heh)

Yes, I'd also like to hear about this "Balance Issue" thingy. It seemed to work perfectly to me. DBoy's awesomeness was teh haxx0rz, yo, and now my Bretonian Battleship goes flying when that little Dagger runs into it and just walks merrily on by. ME WANT ME SHIP'S MASS INCREASED AGAIN.

Oh, sorry. Dboy's BS mode was in the betas. It increased the mass of your ship if you were flying a capship so that it didn't spin win that puny little light fighter goes Kamikaze on your starboard bow.

Quick comment - we thought that Panzer was the Leader, Swift. -Agmen

Which Dreadnought was that?

One of your nine.
