Supreme Cmdr

Let me put you out of your misery All info regarding mp, is classified. Two things are certain: the dynamic universe will be there, the Insurgents had better start looking for a new galaxy to romp around in.

quote: By the way, Tac, why did the EDGECRUSHER blow up all the MRT's? And why did they leave You alone? They must've heard the crew singing the Hymns Of the Fleets thru the commlink and decided to evac. Wouldn't you? I know I would.

Tac, I am convinced, now more than ever, that you are in need of some dire help...of the psychiatric kind. Please report to Starpath asap. This has got to be the funniest thing I've read all week. 'hymns of the fleets'?

hehe, at least I didn't run to the nearest station (which I could have)

LOL, the funniest thing happened today. I was playing (as usual ) and went into null space in order to hide from some jackass Insurgent who had been chasing me clean clear across SOL. He had managed to hammer me good and since he can't come into null space, I decided to hide there (you can go into nullspace by flying off the map...use tacops as a guide) while I performed repairs. Anyway, earlier, my marines had captured some intruders and thrown them in the detention hold. Due to combat damage, the DH took damage and the intruder (now an escaped prisoner type) escaped, waxed 3 marines, ran clear, clear across the ship to the launch bay.....and stole IC3. Herein lies the rub. He chose a fine time to steal a ship and escape. I was still in null space, he had nowhere to go, so I did what comes naturally....hehe, I blew up IC3 My thinking is that our friend (low AI moron) was probably an Insurgent because only an Insurgent would try to make such a daring attempt. Man, I wish I could've seen his face when he launched and discovered he was in null space. ROTFLMSAO. Only in BC3K will cool stuff like this happen. www.bc3000ad.com/images/screen_shots/photo147.jpg

I don't see any posts to it, so I wasn't sure if it was showing up or not. I would think that a post like that would've caused a stir or a stampede by now. I guess not. So, I figure its a wasted effort and have ceased development of the v1.09 patch. Now, I guess we now get to wait for v2.01.

Great going guys. I enjoyed it too, though I didn't participate (you guys seemed to be doing to well, why rock the boat? ). When I have time, I'll update the history and give some more feedback. Until then, the sequel is my top priority.

Hey Rattler, thats a kickass logo. Cool stuff

DeSylva has made some excellent suggestions. As per my authority, it is now law. btw, please go back and edit the Earthcom graphic, it has a spelling error in it. Also, guys, when you edit your post multiple times, be sure to remove the existing default 'editing' prompt at the bottom before re-submitting. Charles, take a look at your post and you'll see. Remove all three entries and there will be only one when you resubmit the post.

Ron said: quote: I propose that either all base postings go through DeSylva(or appointee)before being posted; or all posts be made tentative to a higer power's approval(ultimately Derek, but could just as easily be DeSylva or someone else with the abillity to make impartial judgements). You are right. Therefore, all base/station locations should go through DeSylva. The idea is to ensure that nobody goes and plonks bases in regions which would cause a blockade. However, under normal circumstances, I wouldn't worry about that though, because AI entities will simply barge right through. But yes, I agree that Rattler needs to sanction all bases/stations. If there are any changes, Tac & co, simply go back and edit your messages in the thread where you listed your bases. You guys need to print out the system map and take a look at the entire galaxy carefully too.

Rattler I see your point and understand your concern. I don't have a problem with keeping this info private, that may explain why Tac sent his to me via email (I ripped a hole in his hull for it ). My concern is that it makes things more complex than they need to be. Intel in 3000AD is advanced, so I doubt that any force would be able to keep that info secret for a long period. That said, this is why all bases/stations are 'known' in the game. So, I think that for now, we should make the info public. Once multiplayer rolls around next year, if the technology allows it, you can pretty much put your base anywhere you want. Since the server (yours or someone else's) will be running your version of a script written for the game (assuming you learn how to do it using the GBS from v2.0), you can pretty much put them where the heck you want with not restrictions. My default server script shipping with the game will have a default script will all known bases. So, if I have a persistent server at www.3000ad.com (yes, I own that URL too) and we use it for RPG, SDF etc, I will be the one to edit the script with classified intel from you guys. See what I mean? Though I'm head of GALCOM, you can trust me not to pass on classified info to the GALCOM side (Tac & co) because it would ruin things. But like I said before, once for instance Junkari and his cronies discover where the Insurgent base is, you can pretty much expect to find a post here about it Imagine everyone scrambling to the server to either (a) take it out or ( defend it. Of course if you and Jester decide to commit Hari Kari and try to take on GHQ, we'll be there waiting on that fateful morning. The cool thing is that if someone takes out your station, you pretty much have to wait until the server rebuilds it...hehe, 4 hours later. Of course, you can always go capture another one and see how long you can hold on to it for. Its going to be a blast, just stick with it guys. If anyone else has any other ideas, lets talk about them.

Mike you forgot that the [email protected] is yours?
