the problem of base being strong is kinda hard to get around...on one hand they should be strong so noone will come at night and blow it up while be sleep and waste our well spent time on the other hand they are very hard to destroy and include A LOT of teamwork to do so including sieges that last for hours...hell that's preety fair if it comes to effort you need to do to build and keep it...
now...problem is that people build base without permission I mean... I am not talking about those intended bases that are to be secret or simply are build by unlawfuls...yeah that's obvious that they are kept secret. Now problem is that <strike>LOLWUTS</strike> (people who don't know that this server is an ROLE-PLAY server and don't ROLEPLAY at all or can't ROLEPLAY cause they don't speak English) build bases which then are very hard to get rid off and inRP we should get rid of those...it ends in having bases all around that people who most of the time don't RP at all or can't even speak english properly mantain...that got me an idea...why don't we get the base building ships as SRP ships? So you know...it would be impossible for a lolwut to have it and at the same time it wouldn't be that hard to get by - I don't mean SRP like we would have to RP for months to get it - a simple topic on forums - adressed to admins with basic information on what are we planning and some basic information on the owners. Of course the location of the base will be up to building person if they want to reveal it or not.
If we would get base builders admin-aproved only we would have the control of bases while we are still at beginning of use for them.
to sum up:
1. I am a rich freelancer who owns some transports and I have some buddies
2. I want to have a place where I can sit all day and watch TV with my buddies and play games and have parties!
3. HEY let's build a base! - YEAH MAN that's a good idea!
4. Admins - we are bros from Bretonia/Liberty etc etc and we shall build our base ! Give the base builder and we shall do it with glory! HUZZAH! Base will most likely be remoted , hidden shetler for us . We will be building cloaks and stuff on it and most likely it will be closed to outsiders . Here is my characters bio who is going to be the admin. Thanks
5. Admins: Yo bro - cool bro - here bro!
6. Wow thanks - let's do it bros!
That would most likely solve most of lolwut issue in the base section of mod. So yeah I know it's another base topic of mine - but this one is a little diffrent. Opinions?
well not exacly - it's rather early - we already have a lot of lolwut bases but it's gonna grow in time if we don't start working on balancing it - everything that comes new in the mod needs discussion and balancing so it won't ruin the fun - this topic is going to be a start of it

If you don't like lolwut bases in Bretonia destroy them, and if you can't destroy them, then tough luck?
yeah easy to say "tough luck" but in reality Bretonia does not have enough active HMS players to destroy every lolwut base...and if somehow the lolwut knows how to defend and have the 3 repair materials it's rather impossible if he gets to core 2. The fact that we did blow the base in New London last weekend was pure luck... we were gathering HMS ships for 10 h ! yes 10 h to gather the forces and defend in meanwhile from Corsairs Legates in New London...yes you heard me and Osiris..tons of bombers etc etc but that's not a topic. Liberty has the LNS force to deal with lolwut bases. Bretonia for instance not only has WEAK bretonia battleships but also have little them active
OVER ALL Number of Bretonia Battleship 51 - and you need 15 to destroy a single repair commodity base core 2.... DAMN if it was 3 repair commodity it would have to be half of Bretonia fleet or even more...I can already hear the people saying - you should wait for the supplies go down and then siege...yeah and in meanwhile I wait the admin of the base builds up some weapon platforms and core 3 and 2 storages. yeah good point.
The problem then again is not the fact that I can't destroy the base...cause I could spend 3 days and keep my liner idle outside the base shooting to keep the shield up..but it's waste of my time and fun. And really...you think it's THAT hard for Admins to give a base builder to a player who knows his place inRP and is worth having the base?
I think it's worth taking some of the admins time even if this will mean the base builders will take time to get aproved...

:haha:Seems the tables have turned. Same things were said to Corsairs just days ago.
Why should you even carea about that lolwut bases? let people have fun. stop destroying installations of players if they dont harm to you. of cource pirate base on capital planet is bad idea, but why should you care about base that hidded in asteroids that have no visitors? you just same them with that - oh, thers a someones base. BLOW IT TO DUST!!!

pfft. go kill Diamant then. its also built by lolRuss, some of thsoe cant speak proper english even.
Damn Lolwuts they build a base and we cannot destroy it because we have only cruisers. To destroy level 1 base that have 3 Repairs we do need 40 Cruisers with Cerberius Guns, to Destroy King Cross Lolwutbase 50-60 Cruisers are needed,however none faction can boost such numbers and the server would crash with 40 cruisers shooting the lolwut bases near Dublin Gate and near Cambridge Gate. OH No!Someone is lolwut?
I mean it really what right do you have to call peoples bases lolwut bases? If someone have different view/RP then yours he is lolwut? You good sir need reality check and this topic needs a lock and I need to work not to loose my time in the forum.

What gives you the right to call other peoples playing "Lolwut"? If someone is acting OORP then the admins can deal with them, apart from that they are fully within their rights to build a base you hate so much.

In some way I understand Gargamel in some not. In RP - you need to ask permission to build a Lawful base. Wich is fine.

Others Buliding random bases, just dont care about RP (if its a lawful one - no unlawful would ask a certain house for a permission to build a base).
If you want fun in a other way, there are lots of other disco servers you can join where you or others wich want fun dont have to RP. Fact is that it is a 24/7 RP server. And I know you cant control everyone and look on their fingers so everyone RP's proper.
----
The idea 'I like', should be up to the admins. But calling every NOT RP'ed Base lolwuts is just not cool :nono:
I cant see lolwuts wich manage to raise and build a base. Those are no lolwuts. They just dont know what RP is.
----
Well, we can complain about those people or just take it right it is now.
There will allways be players wich cant talk proper english or dont RP.
So why dont you make the 24/7 Disco Server Private? Every new player has to sign online to get the access to the server. With a RP story with a Proper RP name (not like LNS-Hello.Kitty) and so on? *ironic* <--- for those wich think i was being this serious.
