Q&A / Re: How to tell when to go for the kill

« on: June 04, 2013, 08:22:38 am »

There are also visual markers but as of yet I don't think there is a comprehensive list of them with screenshots or w/e. Hmmm... anyone want to help me do this? A little stint in sandbox mode with a Cap and a spectator should be all we need.

Either way, you don't always have a visual so the infostream is probably the most reliable way.

I'm gonna have to switch keyboards. My mac keyboard requires you to press the 'fn' key to make the function keys work.

Gameplay / Re: Where is a "Ramming guide"?

The only other basic is if you're ramming for a kill you want at least their hull armor to be down. If you're ramming for positioning you don't want your hull armor to be down. The thread posted above is great for that positioning stuff.

Yeah changing roles is a pain in the butt and there's no way to know how to do it unless you're either told by someone who knows or you do it accidentally/by experimenting. It's pretty much just a workaround I threw out there if you ever wanted to grab that vacant pilot spot in the middle of a match.

I don't see Muse ever implementing any sort of punishing feature. It's not their style. They're very community spirited and side way toward positive reinforcement.

I'm not saying that captain quitters don't suck. They do, for both sides. I'm just saying there are nicer ways of doing this.

You'll eventually start to recognise and friend some trustworthy people. This is what the commendation system could be good for if you could see people you've already commended outside of the victory splash. (Honestly as it is the only purpose it has is for new achievements but it's being developed further if I remember correctly.)

Also, you can change your class mid game. You just have to abandon, switch, and manually join back into the lobby.

Overall chance of qualifying:

Lol, as if tipping actually reflected real chances

Thanks for the stats, though. Great to see the consistent effort you're putting into this.

Yeah I know chance isn't quite the right word but I was knocking the stats out before I went rock climbing. You get the gist though and that's what matters.

Statistics statistics. All the statistics.

Overall chance of qualifying:
Polaris Company - 36%
The Gentlemen - 32%
The Falconeers - 18%
The Valiant - 14%

Individual stats:

1st Qualifier
The Gentlemen - 55%
Polaris Company - 18%
The Falconeers - 18%
The Valiant - 9%

1st Knock Out
The Valiant - 90%
The Falconeers - 10%

2nd Qualifier
Polaris Company - 55%
The Valiant - 18%
The Falconeers - 18%
The Gentlemen - 9%

2nd Knock Out
The Falconeers - 50%
The Gentlemen - 30%
Polaris Company - 20%

Overall the tipping is still quite overwhelmingly for the veteran teams. The Gentlemen's popularity has dropped since they started bringing their B team but they're still tipped to win heavily over Polaris for the first qualifying spot.

As a Merry Man and the one who runs the gambling scene in GoIO I feel it is my duty to say we are definitely, absolutely, positively, irrevocably, inconceivably, indubitably, NOT evil.

By the way, if anyone talks to N-Sunderland tell him he is overdue and I'm sending Tony round to collect.

Is it just the Goldfish that suffers from this? What are the other default loadouts?
