Community Events / Re: Sunday Community Skirmish #52 (Signups for Sunday May 24th)

Been missing the best of three format, perhaps when there are fewer teams signing up go back to best of three and keep the new system for when there are a lot of sign ups? Maybe a fixed number that specifies what format the tournament will be?

I would really like to see a rule where every game begins on a pause until the referee starts the match when all players have loaded in, in order to solve the frequent issues with early game disconnects.

Paper only wins because Rock feels bad for it and throws the game. Rock would win if he played serious, but he doesn't want to drive off Paper. A community consisting only of Scissors and Rock would get boring quickly.

I think my favorite name is the for my mobula. I've always really liked the ship but when it first came out it was often regarded as too difficult to engineer/coordinate and therefore worthless despite its rather fancy exterior design and overwhelming forward firepower.

There's 2 types of items we use. Wieldable items, and Icon items.


#1. Wieldable items - These are items that you can actually hold to help your team with (Examples: Spyglass, Rangefinder, Spanner, Rubber Mallet, etc)

#2. Icon items - These are items that are never seen, and only you can use them while mounting a specific object like a gun or the helm. (Examples: Kerosene, Moonshine, Greased rounds, Burst rounds, etc)



The Pilot utility belt contains both iconic items for his specific job, and wieldable items that other classes can use.
The Gunner utility belt contains iconic items for his specific job, but no wieldable items that other classes can use.
The Engineer utility belt contains wieldable items that other classes can use, but no iconic items specifically for himself to use.


The gunner needs some wieldable items to make himself more useful, as he only really needs 2 ammo slots 90% of the time, and the engineer could possibly use some iconic items to boost engines possibly.

This is the reason muse hasn't already done this - giving the gunner wield-able items "breaks the design paradigm" of gunners only having iconic items. One of the devs said this in one of the many clones of this thread a few months back.

So,... this is a thing by NASA.



The hope of a strafing ship lies with NASA!

« on: April 12, 2015, 06:21:30 am »

back of a squid is also a serious harpoon placement
It is bad on the side of a galleon

imho it could use a slight damage buff/increase in projectile speed - the gun is harder to shoot than its utility deserves
