Image Retrieval - November 15, 2006

**ShadowReapr**

My personal belief, regarding PvP, is that we suffered because of a lack of /teamduel. While you may say "duh", go along with me.

There's way too much of a lone-gunman ideal going on in the game. With the minor exception of missions, which still isn't too challenging to solo, there's no real encouragement to team up properly in a real team - a couple MAs, a Gunman or two, maybe a few hackers, and most lackingly a Doctor/Upgrade Artist - particularly in PvP. I cannot comment on the scene in Vector, but all I know is what I see, and on the Non-Hostile servers all I see is a load of people in a few select places. There may be one or two Doctor's using mass-heals, but other than that...

Why team duel has caused this? Not only because PvP quickly derides into a free-for-all, but also because we've not had chance to practice in this sort of tactic.

Maybe I'm whining. Maybe I'm completely wrong. Then again, I don't mind it when an Image Retrieval isn't a new skin or some plot-related picture. So yeah, I must be.

Why did we opt for adding a trail to Hyperjump rather than getting rid of the Mario jump?

Nope, no Zerg Easy Mode for you folks

Yay for Sneaker.... Showing us all how access to places such as the champagne room and other forums that only a few moderate people may get to, gives the results you want. I wonder how that conversation between you and the Dev's went?

Sneak "Yeah, guys I don't like this /face thing... "

Dev "Why"

Sneak "Well people keep tracking me down and killing me"

Dev "Hmmm...."

Sneak "Yeah most people don't like /face. It's pretty unfair"

Dev "Wow... Good point. Let's take it out."

Sneak "Hey thanks SMILEY "

Dev "NP... Hey if you have any other suggestions then just post them on the Champagne forums... (Or whatever they are called now)"

Sneak "Will do man.... Man just wait till I get done with MKT and Hacker.... Muwhahahahahaha"

**Xeros**

...The Community Summit had it's Champagne taken away before everything was shut down. Get over it.

Are there any other dead topics that the community would like to hold on to? Oh my, Live Events Team should come back!!! Morpheus is alive!!! People are suppose to change with the times, what is stopping us?

This is going to make MxO Machinima less... How do you say... Hmm... I can also imagine people doing hundreds of short hyperjumps in an area just to grief folks involved with events or something. I haven't had to do this in a long time:

You know what? I would rather have had /afk instead of WHITE BLOODY LINES STREAKING ACROSS THE SKY......

Well Ive been tracking without face just like I used to from before for a while now, but this is something, however quick thing, and please say yes. IF I have "effects = None" selected, it wont show the trails right? otherwise you just messed up screenshots and video editing for a lot of ppl.
I would like the Effects toggle to work. It has never worked correctly. Maybe one day we'll finally be able to fix it.

Wait....so we're are going to be stuck with these big ugly arse white lines all over the sky in our videos? Yeesh it mean an end to FA's HJ co-ordination...

*sigh* ok new feature added to the pointless list

luggables

/afk

HJ trail...

hmm wonder what else they might give us next. sword sheath? ( pointless without the sword)

Ok come on i know u guys are working hard but stop giving us pointless little features and give the game something good. look at just last week u guys posted the pacify area now thats a good feature all these other minis are just pointless and a waster of you own time to make. give us something we could use with exitement and that could give the game life! give us something to do something of interest. like a new type of PB type thing. you know what you should do show us yor ideas for new features and we can vote on which ones might be goo to have in game so we can vote out the pointless and stupid ones !!?

**BeBeH**

/twothumbsdown to HJ White Lines....

BOOOOOO!!!! HISSSSSS!!!!

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! HISSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!! SMILEY

**SpikeDX**

They disappear right away if the person leaves the visible set (the "ball of light" effect plays when that happens), or if the person lands.

Well... That's good, I guess. We'll see how it plays out. Might actually look interesting.

Hey, do you think it would be possible to add a very faint puff of dust or something at the end of a hyperjump? I think it would look pretty cool; could be a replacement for those white circles that always able above your head anyways. I mean, without cracks on the ground after landing a jump and all, hyperjumps have always been really static.

**MxO-Insertion**

Longer contrails are needed, why? For those who can't track their targets without a "/" command? If it is.... sad.

**cloudwolf**

I think it makes good use of a visual 'realistic' 'player skill' element rather than an exploitation of the emote system.

As for these little things being pointless, remember its little things, little shines and improvements which better the experience as a whole.

Thus is the main focus of update 48

And of course im not saying we dont need bigger gameplay content-o things. of course not. But given the current size of the dev team i think its understandable they have to split their time every now and then.

Now if we had more devs it would be a different story.

Very Nice! =D
