Burning! - Usually means one of two things. I'm using kerosene or we're on fire. Either way Engies should be on duty to decipher what I mean.

I'm jsut glad I was able to contribute to the fun with a decent idea. But I heard there's a facebook group, one of you should link me to it so I can join.

So as far as I can tell some one actually talked to the people who set the bounty board cause as far as I can tell all the merry men are bounty heads right now. Glad to know my idea was heard.

Gameplay / Re: Lumber jack nerf or terrain damage nerf

« on: July 19, 2013, 06:09:39 pm »

The lumberjack is a hard weapon to get a handle on unless you have an experienced gunner. So honestly to hit at far ranges ain't easy, if you just move around a bit and use evasive maneuvers and cover, you can easily get around it.  Sure it's a very strong weapon, but yeah. Also the Lumberjack has the arming time which makes it hardly effective at close ranges making a brawl to them equal hell.

Feedback and Suggestions / Re: Tar bomb laucher

Now some of us had a couple of ideas about a weapon concerning actual tar, not tar smoke. A weapon that could actually coat a ship in tar and potentially make that ship more susceptible to fire. Now withe 1.3 update fire s bad enough so i could see why it wouldn't be a very welcome idea but I would see it similar to a flamethrower, spewing tar on components which makes them more susceptible to fire, pretty much adding a damage modifier.

Eh well. Still, I take things like that kinda serious. I could understand perhaps trolling with a weird ship or something but honestly kicking would ruin the game.

Hey guys. I don't know how you would feel about this but I think if we talked to some of the use team who runs the bounty system then my idea could work. What if the entirety of the us signed up as bounties on one of the bounty hunting weekends. I mean all the merry men marked as bounties. Sure you could opt out but you have to admit it would be quite amazing.

I disagree with points 1, 2, and 3. Maybe I'm not supposed to take this thread seriously but, I personally like being a serious captain. I enjoy welcoming crew to a ship because it's nice for immersion. also the community is what comes first and foremost, training newbies is something of a task we should all undertake at least a bit. To make sure we keep growing and getting more new players, perhaps they will be experienced soon enough with our help. Also you just blatantly want to troll by kicking a captain who may or may not be an amazing pilot. If you kick pilots off their ships then you don't deserve to sit on their ship either.

Jet
"We know what it's like. The one of our crew that's like that is upstairs."

Spike
"One of the things I hate most... Kids, animals, and women with attitudes."

Spike chuckles before looking to the stairwell as a woman in yellow leather shorts and top with attached straps walks her way down wearing some sassy boots with slight heels.

Jet
"Speak of the devil... You get your beauty sleep Faye?"

Faye
"You bet your ass I did."

Spike
"Good. I found us a little assignment, not sure if Cap here has room for ya though, we've already got another gal of his that seems a bit too much like you."

Spike and Jet both chuckle while Faye began pouting at the two of them, stamping over to the group. As she closes the distance to the counter she gives Plasma a sultry look.

Faye
"Well aren't you cute?"

Spike
"He's not for sale Faye. I'd be careful I don't want a cat fight 'round here."

See we didn't die once. And my gunner knew I was going to be screwing around I had her bring Lochnagar just for it.

So I playe d match with some good buddy from TCD and well we got on something of a roll. The opposing team got real mad after they thought they had victory when they learned we had been screwing around most of the time and our own engies were trolling each other with dumb cooldowns. In the end we played serious and crushed the enemy team. nce agian they got real mad at us. So next game we screw around again except I'm using a goldfish with a Hellhound on he front and I'm having my gunner load lochnagar while I ram them mercilessly. I got three ram kills in a 2v2 with a goldfish. I felt pretty damn good about it. I don't know why but I just felt this insatiable need to ram my enemies or sit atop the Mobula one of them had. All I have to say n the end though is Moonshine away.

I've actually put together a ship named the Bebop. A basic Pyramidion with varying loadouts depending on the match.

I'm a jazz trumpeteer well ate least that is what I prefer to play. I make no profession of it as I'm still only in high-school. But I've had ridiculous amounts of practice and experience in my school's various bands. My school's maching band is one of the best in the state.

Hope to have some merry times! I've already blasted quite a few ships under the flags of the Merry Men and I hope to blast some more.
