Limiting an overpowered weapon to "Just" 3 people or "Just" 12 people doesn't negate the fact that as I go about my own business I suddenly go down in a hail of money because some 1337 sparrer was exercising his right to PK with his even 13374|2 weapon. Sure, he can have a better skin for it, but when he does far and away more damage faster with less penalties and/or vulnerabilities, it's a problem.
Blocking shots is a good idea, mind, just not with an "average" powerful sword. Look in other games - the Defender is a weak attack, high defense weapon. Not an average attack, high defense weapon only available to certain people.

He can take half off me before I can plant a single shot into him. Its a easily adaptable skill aswell.

And having a muramasa that blocks shots? A event weapon? Way too unfair. You'd have to make 1 event weapon availible to everyone else (as we have enough event weps alredy), or make plasmasabre deflect shots on every stage.

Translation: I don't have red/bluepistols so they are cheap! If you had them you wouldn't say any of that so errm shut up...

whats the point in winning a weapon if it dont give u a better chance of winning

Appirces>Red Pistols.
The way RP shoots is too warped. It leaves a huge gap in the middle of the fire pattern. And the event weapons on Zone so far aren't cheap; they're just different.

And besides if you won't use em whats the point of having them if your not going to get over 400 kills then whats the point of having them......

Oh, how I hope the two of you are being sarcastic...

Look, the math on this is really simple.
Let's pretend Zone has 100 people on, and it's the same 100 people 24/7. Just to make the math easier. If you like I'll do it again with different numbers.
Let's say one person out of the 100 Zonites has this double light saber that deflects bullets. And the other 99 all have guns that have become useless. This one Champion with his Appropriately Powered Weapon that "give u a better chance of winning" and lets you "get over 400 kills" easily chops through the 99 losers with guns. One person has fun, 99 people don't have fun. Do you get what I'm saying?

Oh, but the 99 people have a snowball's chance in hell of taking the weapon? Well that changes everything! Now of the 99 people, one's an awesome marksman who finds a freak of tiling somewhere on the server where he can snipe the Champion repeatedly while his back's turned and he steals the sword. Now he's having fun, the 98 people uninvolved still aren't having fun, and the former Champion used to be having fun but not anymore.

Think I'm reading too much into it? Well, when's the last time you played Kingdoms? And if I'm wrong on that, what rings and weapons do you have on it?

You overestimate yourself and underestimate me. Ignorant, arrogant, foolish boy.
On a lighter note, I have to admit the event weapons are seriously half-arsed/thought out ideas (Except reapers and lavagun :)). The red and blue pistoles were exciting to look forward to, then we figured it out that they are just hyped up overpowered lame machines, resembling ap pirces (Red pistoles) and ap rippers (Blue pistoles). When only reapers were around, I used to dream of being on it's board, now I don't give a crap if I'm on the Red pistoles board. In fact I am actually ashamed to be on it! Event weapons used to be a sign of a skilled player. Now I see people who I have never heard of walking around with event items.

If you win them, o gee wow! It's incredibly easy to gain them. I play fairly, I don't use laming event weapons to gain an advantage otherwise it sucks the soul and life out of the game.

Ya. Their also should be more events for money and jetpacks instead of just haveing rp, bp and reapers.

Tyhm 10-04-2005 04:24 AM

:rolleyes: Yes, it's wonderful having an overpowered weapon! You should enjoy it, uh huh! Use it with pride against people who don't! If only there were less people that had it, all would be well! For those of us who have it anyway! Stop giving it to other people, so our exclusive club of nigh-invincibility will be that much more prestigious!

If anyone listens to you, Zone dies. Don't think it hasn't happened before.
