So every once in a while a guns is nerfed for being OP. We've seen this with missile slings, mercs, lumberjacks, and now flaks. But has anybody noticed the true problem? Has anybody figured out what is truly causing unequipped crews to suffer?
WASD is OP as hell.
Think about it. I would wager that 90% or more of the tournament players used WASD. Whenever two ships enter in battle, the chances of one with WASD players coming out victorious are astronomically high. This game needs more than one strategy. This game needs a more diversified meta. So this is my proposition.
-- Decreased rate of movement with decrease in ship size to maintain travel speed
-- Reduced response time speed with increased game speed to maintain fidelity
-- Reversal of A and D with complete mirroring of the game to maintain control consistency
If that fails to reawaken the meta...
-- Adding an arming time. WASD moves you at half speed until you've walked halfway across the ship.
Thoughts, anyone?

Ok, so I need clarification here. Are you saying that moving around your ship is OP?

You might need to check if your sarcasm detector is working :P

lol obviously I need an overhaul... :P

TOTALLY agreed. ALSO, I need to bring this up: 100 percent of people that drink water DIE. Water has a 100 percent kill rate. Water is OP, nerf immediately.

How shall we nerf it? Should we give water an arming time?

no we should give it a long reload speed. maybe around 1 minute

I was thinking of getting the government to put restrictions on this stuff, it is after all the leading cause of drowning.
-
SIMPLE. We just take it out of the game altogether. NOBODY DRINK WATER.
Take that, life admins.
-
oh, I'm dying! That was to funny xD

oh, I'm dying!
That'll be the water (http://www.dhmo.org/facts.html).

my god! xD

Water kills, wasd OP. I really can't expand on this in any way, well done lads, very funny.

I have come to the conclusion that the real problem here is that Zill is OP (even if he lost our no-deaths streak today :P). I'm adding a poll so that the community can vote on whether we should make Muse nerf Zill.
-
Zill is majorly OP. He rolls with some of the best players in the game, and I have never seen him herding a crew of powder monkeys. Muse should make it so that only Russian players can join his ship (at least until he learns Russian). :P
Salute N-Sunderland

Oh please. You guys completely missed my Nooblet matches during the big sale. This last weekend was my bounty weekend, so I had to protect myself somehow, haha.
-
Wow, you guys make me proud. You deserve the effectively-ripping-someone's-interesting-concerns-completely-apart-with-amazing-sarcasm award.

I would like to thank the academy... my parents.... ummmm Muse...... Yeah that's it

What about me, and all the cheese I ate?!
-
Sorry Sgt. Spoon... I'll thank you next time :P
-
Well the cheese was good anyways :U
-
Wait if we are doing awards, who won Best-Picture-of-Someone-Blowing -A-Ship-Up-While-Blindefolded-And-Looking-Awesome-While-Flying-Away Award?
-
The poll keeps on mysteriously changing to favour Zill. Hmm, who with CA status would do that? I wonder :P
-
I havent the slightest idea. >_> <_<
-
Fixed the poll. I think this is something we can agree on, Zill :P
-
Agreed. Compromise is swell.
-
I second this.
-
Everyone loves WASD>
-
We can't forget those who use arrow keys!
...
But we don't have to, because they don't exist.
-
I think the true cause is weaponry is op...
All weapons should be removed, and damages..
And there should be no winners or losers, all who take part should be given a gold star and a cookie.
Oh and yes the ships should be replaced with pony and unicorn plushies.
