Posted: Fri Mar 02, 2012 12:45 pm Post subject: Uknown Strux set |
|
|
Frizz announced that he does not have any ideas in mind to add to TWz. However we still have unknown ore with absolutely no purpose.
I suggest one final strux set for TWz that uses that unknown instead of normal ore, and uses fps instead of command. This would encourage both fps and unknown harvesting. Since building these units requires fps, only the ones with the corresponding admin power can do the builds.
This would encourage zedus beacons since anyone who wants to build these units for his personal storage would have to get fps and unknown himself.
Each strux updated added a new concept to the game (stealth, acti units, mistarget). However to avoid any update that would leave any negative effect on the game or would require a lot of coding, the new set would not have any new kind of effect.
Since these units/mods require faction resources, they should be of faction support nature.
I am not going to bother with premods, use your imagination.
These units can only be built at these prices, and are considered built at 100% OS
Seeker Probe
The Seeker Probe tracks down enemy movements and predicts future ones.

- If Seeker Probe did not move last turn, all enemies in same sector become easier to hit 0.25 levels stacks (unlimited). Bonus applies to faction units only.
- Can only be built with 1 slot max.
Requirements:
requires 50 Unknown Ore.
requires 10 Faction Points.
Mag Tank
Name says all

IMO: make it make custom units they would be built by normal ore but would be *invented* with the UK i think it would be that way in my brainzzz:
the unit MAXIMIZED powers: 0 abilities 0 actis 2 guns (0 with effects) 8 maximum speed 40 HP total
now to increase the maximized stats it would cost you FP,a LOT of it,at the begining its a bit cheap to increase the stats then it gets more expensive as you go,increasing the number of guns doesnt increase the number of guns with effect,you got to increase em each by its own,but guns with effects are INCLUDED in the number of guns so if you have 2 guns (1 with effects) you have 2 guns max,but if you chose to put a gun with an effect (web/rail...etc) then its a normal gun AND a gun with effect and of course you there is a limit for the maximized powers
you cant just go mad with a unit with 1k HP and 30 guns at 15 range with 50 dmg each and can move 8/8 and can dodge everything and can hit everything...etc
and to chose whatever the guns are and what their effects are (if you would chose any) and how to spread that HP (shields/armor,the more you get of one the more it costs to get more) and how much speed would it have (same goes,you spread it between controlled and max)...etc that would cost you UK,TONS of it of course,and depending on your choises,the cmd/ore prices to build changes and so does the CE,you cant get that unit over ;for example; 100 shields without it becoming unique or 100 armor without it becoming unique or more than 3 guns with effect or more than 6 guns total without it becoming unique...etc (same for abilities)
for command units,its simple,any unit that goes over 1.5k base CE is a command unit for activations,when adding activated only stuff,it DOES add up CE but a like 75% of wut it would normally add,you can even get a command unit with no activations if thats wut you wish and also command units are always unique and you cant go over 2k CE
any abilites that makes enemies weaker or makes allies stronger ( to-hit/dodge for example ) SHOULD BE EXCLUDED FROM THIS UNLESS:
its on cmd units <.<
things such as deep view and reveal can be put on any unit
if done properly it would be pwnage in a nice way if not it would break the game,and there WOULD be limitations of course like you cant get over 4 cloak speed base,you cant get an acti with over 10 charges and no cooldown,you cant add an acti that would break the game and is a win button... err i mean an acti that makes you take less than 25% dmg,you cant put more than 1 reduction type of stuff (no you take % dmg this turn with dmg reduction) you cant get dmg reduction over 5 dmg
its meant for people to be creative and not add stupidly strong units in the game,here is how the interface might look like:
Quote: | Damage Reduction (Current limit:3) :
Acti's (Current limit:1) :
Polarize Armor: adds * dmg reduction on armor for 1 turn * charges * cooldown
Polarize Shields: adds * dmg reduction on shields for 1 turn * charges * cooldown
Defensive Shield: adds * dmg reduction for 1 turn * charges * cooldown
Abilities (Current limit:2) :
This unit gets * dmg reduction
This unit takes * more dmg from hits |
see the *'s? these are editable,depending on the number you chose the number of UK used to *invent* the unit varies
so if i chose for example on the polarizing acti's 1,its 1k UK,2 its 5k UK,3 its 10k UK...etc for example
Defensive Shield would even cost more: 1,its 3k UK,2 its 15k UK,3 its 30k UK for example
now how much acti's would multiply that UK cost,there should be a minimum of 2 acti's, so if its 2, 1x 3, 1.25x 4, 1.5x ...etc
the ability would cost A FREAKING CRAPTON more:1, 10k UK (trolly isnt it?) 2, 50k UK 3, 250k UK for example
the this unit takes more dmg is just to reduce the CE and build cost but it cant go over the dmg reduction limit and it DOES cost UK to *invent* into a unit,the dmg reduction limit is the total dmg reduction,its not the limit per acti/ability
how much the units would cost in cmd/ore would also have its equations and such
FAA (Frequently Answered Answers) :
your idea sucks,i can just maximize everything and stay under the conditions for a unique unit and thats pretty much it and there is a troll unit
nope,if you maximize everything without getting any of the unique unit conditions,well wut about the CE? you cant do that,if you get your CE over 1.5k its a command unit and that makes it unique already
i can get a trollish cmd unit and that would break the game ((((((
errr i already stated that there should be a 2k CE limit,you cant get a unit that trolly and still stay under 2k CE while staying under the limits
i can get a unit with 5 dmg reduction (which is the maximum stated) and add mods and get it some good speed and weapons and such and troll everything,just a BAII but a better version and i can still manage to stay under 1.5k CE
5 dmg reduction would be like + ~700 CE for the unit and that is not counting the HP/speed/guns and such,a unit that concentrates at 1 thing is not whats supposed to happen from this,only Frizz is the guy supposed to do these neat stuff
well with all these limitations it would be pointless and useless
its about being creative,am sure there would be a LOT more uses than you expect while still not getting a single OP'ed unit (if this is implemented right) how is it being creative with all these limitations? the limitations i stated arent that aweful seriously,the only thing that is aweful is the UK prices i stated <.<
thoughts? (i know i didnt include complexity,i got a life so i cant just keep on writing <.<) _________________ & The Statement Below is False &

it sounds like a good idea but like i said no new stuff that require a lot of coding
I think we should stick to old abilities, just new images and stats |

i didnt really suggest adding a new ability its just mixing old ones to create a new *unit* that is _________________ & The Statement Below is False &

The problem with using FPs to buy units is that then small faction farming now has an even newer use. It is much easier to gain faction points in small factions so many factions will be created for this and farmed then disolved as soon as they get to 50k total points.

fps price could be increased in smaller factions due to their bonus in harvesting fps
or simply u can't build these until certain number of faction points have been acquired |

You could simply require a fac to be X/X/X to build UK units. That costs more than the 200k you get at accelerated rate, and thus ensures only normal rate FPs can be used for this. _________________

This punishes legitimate small factions (something I am aware come few and far between but still). _________________

If u are referring to the increased fp cost, they get fp multipliers
If u are referring to the fp required before you could start building, perhaps we should just go with the increased cost |

I think Unknown needs a use to bring in new players and bring back old ones. _________________ _D'z Nutz
