If 1% of players means at least 5 players, then there are more like 500 players, no? (well more like 450+ so that 1% of it rounds to 5). Close enough. Zeuss wrote: I play with two tilts down. I find it gives me a slightly larger view of the galaxy. 3 more to go! |

I would reply that over 100 ada kits have been dropped in BvB in the past 5 months, but then you would just tell me that that isn't real PvP…

But those BvB scenarios are the final few wars between the few veteran hardcore players that are left in this game, sitting on multiple accounts and stockpiled (some exploited) resources. Not exactly a healthy direction we're moving in. |

instead of C1, what about a PvP based "DOTA" clone with the C2 engine and graphics, where players choose one of the eight classes and fight each other? games like league of legends have millions of players, and SS offers a fairly unique combat experience that would translate well into a MOBA. |

Lol'd so hard. Yes, let's just code an entire new game based off what's currently popular just to try and steal their audience. OH WAIT. We can barely find the time and volunteers to code our own new game. |

Honestly a pure PvP version of this game isn't a bad idea. A MOBA setting has a lot of potential in terms of balance and letting everyone pvp, as opposed to the current system of only people who can afford endgame ships/gear having a chance. Would still need tons of balance tweaks ofc and possibly a reworking of slave AI. Unfortunately, we can't expect this to ever happen unless Jeff decides to take a gamble and I doubt he will. |

Actually, DOTA was already around before WoW, making it a much more sensible transition from RTS to MMORPG. Oh, and I guess we all know where DB's been all this time (*cough LoL).

What SS needs to bring in the crowds is VR support. Truly, you can feel like adum looking upon all of 2.5D creation. |
