We haven't had a thread in a while that gives your guys (the players) a chance to voice your top most concern or aggravation with the game. I hope to fix that. I've had my head down with working client v2 for a long while. (No ETA just yet btw, so don't ask )
Constructive criticisms only and please be articulate and specific. _________________ JonC :: Star Sonata Dev Star Sonata » YouTube Channel :: Twitter Feed :: Bug Database :: Wiki For support, please create a support ticket here. |

Basils are overpowered.
Flicker and Wattage aren't in yet.(we, the players, were told they'd be in by the start of this uni) The things about engineers: 1. The big tanking drones aren't in yet 2. The Engineer missions are not able to all be done on one char yet 3. There is only 1 tweak factory that exists in the game 4. The only Engineer Beams that exist you can buy in an ai base (that would mean add more, do not take away the ones that are already there.) 5. Tractoring only goes up to 16. That's all i can think of right now. _________________ "Why be difficult, when with a little more effort you can be impossible?"

I have one. The aura for engineers, or the one bought in lyceum can only be used to EF ships. I find that unneeded(sp) seeing how most of us fly Astro's as our DM ships, or a rhino if we've got the cash. I'm not sure a lot of us use EF ships as our main use of droning.

Those auras are so that 1 DM uses a capital ship, to lesser himself, but to better everyone else on the Run. GUNNER AURAS!!!!!

The thing that aggravates me the most is the account base slot restriction, which was put in years ago that doesn't appear to fit the new universe size. Unless ofcourse the admins intend to keep the restriction in for practical reasons, such as an increased number of bases would increase the load on the server (I read this somewhere)?
Also, the MF variations of AI (Juju's, Forgones etc.) have been lowered either intentionally or accidently. For example, the Forgones that MF 3 torps are only level 1k now, and are harder than the level 1.6k variants, whereas last uni (and every uni before) they were around 1.2k, and although even then the difficulty didn't match the level, you got more XP for killing them. And yes, like everyone else seems to be saying, Basils are too powerful for their level. The fact that BG's are easier to kill and are several hundred levels higher should prove my point well enough. Either nerf the basils, or increase their level. |

A couple minor suggestions.
1) Make sure that players can only sell their ship to an AI base once it has all the gear, bar neuro-bound or sticky items or equipped augmenters, off it. This should limit the number of 'I sold my ship and don't have any money to buy another one what do I do???' questions in help chat, not to mention some real screw-ups concerning troubles like this in the game. 2) All of the alien races are lacking heavily in one gear category or the other - for example, the Faranji have no engines, Bule no real stealthy shields aside from bionic wall, so on and so forth. Add more ruin gear to fill in these gaps please? 3) Sniper gear, maybe some minor tweaks to sniper class. That's really about it - we were given info on some nifty weapons by Jeff, and they still aren't here yet, aside from pulsius sharpshooter. 4) Increase either the energy bank or regen on certain energy-hungry drones like Mzungu mining defenders or Ares drones so that they can fire independently for a couple minutes before needing to recharge, to make them more useful. That's about it for now, really. |

We don't have F2P bases anymore, so that should make up for any loss in server power that extra P2P bases might cause? Well, some of it, at least? Has an admin replied about this topic yet?

I want to see a bigger variety of missiles gunners dont have a lot in the way of gunner only gear. Anything anything a gunner can use so can any one else. More missiles as in Heat, Surgical, Grem missiles as in they cause mass area grem, Missiles that can be detinated by the person firing them for precise area attacks, Stealth missiles, They would be a fast Black and White Missile that goes in and out of radar a skipper if you will, Maybe even then option to customize missile payloads like added drill tips or something onto them to cut into resists or boosters to add speed. With that you have Add on factories to modd missile crates. Also Different Space Mines would be an idea, such as ones that when enemy enters range they fly at them. other would be stationary and would require the player to on or near them to trigger, these would be stealth mines i assume, Also missile platforms, like drones but fire different types of missiles depending on the platform.

- Ruin, and the vast majority of items that require piracy and peace making.
- Basil are just plain OP - and fighters radars either dont seem to be affected by FC or the base stats are so low it doesnt matter anyway (same with missles, both absolutely fail vs anything remotely low vis even though i can see it just fine) _________________ Tobal wrote: I think Jesus V2 needs a cake...

The complete and utter dependance on a team.
You want to base build? Get a team. It'll get destroyed without one. You will get killed while building the base. You want to PvP? Get a team. You'll be hunted down and annihilated without a team to declare war and back you up. You want to kill high-level stuff? Get a team. Nobody's going to take you on a run without being paid 1b+ first. You want to build a really nice ship? Get a team. You'll never get all the resources yourself - and even if you do, you still need a base. You want to make friends? Get a team. The friends list is out of the way and the likelyhood of you remembering who you befriended is low. Out of all the games I've played, Star Sonata's universal team-oriented gameplay; while enjoyable for some, is extremely restricting. This is the exact reason I'm not paying right now. My team has "borrowed" my Death Striker (which I had worked so hard to obtain) and has not returned it for several months. Despite my topic on the Team Forum getting around 10 views from other members, there have been no responses. I don't expect it back anymore, I doubt they ever planned to return it. Now, this all could have been avoided if I wasn't forced to rely completely on a team. I may not be playing anymore, but I think my opinion should matter because it explains why I no longer play! _________________ while (!asleep(sheep++)) {} |
