For the draft, trying to get a tentative idea of who thinks of themself as a PVP
player, and who thinks of themselves as a hex-flipper.
I know many of you consider yourself proficient at both, and some neither <cough>*J'inn*<cough>
but if you could pick one of the two it would help try and digure out where to stick you.
Not asking for amount of time you think you'll play, as everyone knows it can change easily.
-
Signing up as a Hexx-flipper ;D
-
well it doesn't qualify you for PVP so...
-
well it doesn't qualify you for PVP so...
so does PvHexx count higher or lower than PvAI?
-
<sigh> higher if I'm not flying plasma.. I'll be looking forward to meeting Mr Green on this server..
-
Serious answer, I'm a hex-flipper strategist. ;)
-
5 posts for a serious answer.. this might take a bit :P
Thanks Ted!
BTW
I'm claiming PVP status :rofl:
-
Being on dialup I tend to stay out of the high traffic zones that will likely end up in 4 or 5 people in a mission. That results in my doing more hex flipping then PVP.
I have been in battles with 5 people and 17 vessels (counting the AI FRDs) which worked flawlessly. It was a wonderful furball.
-
I'll be looking forward to meeting Mr Green on this server..
:D
I'm a hex flipper...but the other guy keeps getting in the way ;) so I guess either.
Will you also be asking about the amount of time available to participate in the campaign? Unfortunately mine is now a bit limited.
-
Meh. I am a Lover of course that is why I warp to evey starbase in the quadrant.I have a woman in every one of them. ;D
-
I've never thought of myself in those terms. I just log on and ask where I'm wanted. If it's a hot zone it's PvP if not it hex flipping. I don't care either which way.
-
Come on Hexx you have seen me in PvP match ups :rofl:
Hex flipper here ;D
-
rules and dates for server 1st please....
-
PvP.
LordSaxon
-
PvP is always preferred. ;D
But, not bothered by resorting to flipping hexes when there is a lack of opponets either. ;)
-
In a Fed ship? I am a die-er most likely. Put me down as a flipper though I may venture to the front to be thorougly humiliated a time or two.
Kzinbane
-
I can do either.. but Fed vs Fed.. sign me up as PVP... but I'll hex flip when things are slow.
-
PVP
ShadowLord
-
Both :)
-
Hmmm....
I guess I'm a flipper. I look for a strategic goal, and go for it whether it is defended or not. I'll ignore hot spots if I think I can get more VC elsewhere.
I'm also stubborn. When defenders show up, I try to kill them if I can.
-S'Cipio
-
Borderline pvp'er, I'm best as a wing
-
Both,but I'll go for PvP.
-
Both, but more PvP than not.
-
pvp first then hexflipper
-
hex fliping first pvp secound
-
Hex flipping I can do without losing a ship now. Well mostly. lol. PvP I'm still without a kill other than a cirtain player who shall remain nameless flying into a planet. And No its not jinn or Hexx.
-
definately a lover... ;D
-
definately a lover... ;D
dirty stinking Eve lover. <snicker>

PvP
-
due to 56k (which will HOPEFULLY oonbe corrected -.-) i try to sty away from the hot spots of pvp, i dont wannt crash n leave some one alone or crash everyone out....but i also like to look for simple 1v1's because hex flipping gets boring with the SAME MISSIONS OVER N OVER N OVER AGAIN -.-........so put me down for hex flipper first pvp second :)

Do we have a start time? Hard to commit without a run date. ???

hailz all i am on dial up,but i am afraid i would risk the crash so i guess i am a pvp player...mutt is presently away,hoho and warp don't rewad the forums much but i think i can speak for them all....and they would defenately be pvp too
-
TraumaTech.. PVP is Player vs Player.. Dial-Up just isn't up to the task.. so that would make you a hex flipper, you vs AI.. the crashes you have been having has been when you try to join PVP matches on GW 5 shows your connection is not suited for the task...
-
I am more of a hex flipper then a PvPer. I do great w/ a wing. :)
-
Deepstriker ;D

Uhmm probably test will run 1st or 2nd week of May, so if everyone could show up after that it would be swell..
-
I'll do both if needed but PvP would be my first choice
-
Flipper as I do not "Fly the Heavy metal"
although I make an excelant wing some times
-
Sign me up for PvP....
Ya I suck at it but it gets my pecker hard!
Hex flippin'= Self pleasuring!

pest....thx for the tip but as far as i know,i have never played a game against you,so how would you know how often i crash.as for crashing,i have flown in many 2v1 and 2v2 matches on the dynaverse without crashing,so as i said,i am a player vs player,player and will continue to fly the dynaverse looking for pvp games as opposed to hex flippng
-
Trauma.. your team tried drafting me 4 times on GW 5 and each time everyone I know of went to desktop.. You and I had 1 mission against each other that was stable but it too crashed 25 min into battle..
Now if you want your Dial-Up connection stable enough to have PVP missions, then I can help you config your connection..
However first I would need to know who your ISP service is with... if AOL.. your SOL...
On TS, almost every Alliance member complained about a CTD when you were drafted into a mission or stated that you had dropped at the beginning of a mission..
given what I experienced and what others have stated about PVP with you, your connection needs a lot of help.. currently it is not suited for PVP... This also causes problems with the server kit.. as in corrupting the Database.. the server sees it as an Alt out of mission and / or a forfit... and the server kit has trouble negotiating these things.
It may be stable enough for a 1 vs 1 or for GSA, but not for a 2 v1 or 2v2 or 3v3 or 3v2 or 3v1... Dialup just does not have enough bandwith unless you tweak it out to get a 64 to 86 K connection out of that 56k modem.. plus you modem has to be a v0.92 modem for it to handle the overclock to gain high bandwidth...
Anyhow, if you are intrested, let me know.
-
Definitely a PvP er. But since my times in a Fed ship is even more limited than Hexx's IQ, I most likely will be a dead Fed often
:2gun:---------:rofl:
-
dang, last pic was a boo boo. repeating
:2gun: --------- :rofl:
-
Hex-flipper, since I can't PvP my way out of a wet paper bag.
-
PvP I'm still without a kill other than a cirtain player who shall remain nameless flying into a planet. And No its not jinn or Hexx.
:goodpost:
LOL, its hard to believe Jinn avoded all planets or asteroids this server.
It looks mostly PvP posting here Hexx, so I would advise making the map small w/ high DV's. Maybe 3 Hexes of planets/FRDs that are the only Map VC's . A border only 9 hexes wide with a 2 Hex draft range....any where you sit around the neutral zone will get you drafted eventually.
Just put non VC battle stations 3 hexes back for a non-drafting resupp.
Also a "PvP draft" post here would be cool, for people to throw the glove and state challenges. Maybe posting your hex location before logging on earns you 1 VC win or lose if a kill is posted that day.
Im looking forward to trying Fed for the first time on the Dyna. I flew the first month I had this game in a SL fleet as Federation, and when the PVP action went fully to gamespy I joined (MoK) the Ministry of Kahless. :flame: Some of the best times ever fighting 2v2 Hour long battles with my brothers. Hope to see the same on Mirror, Mirror

taking my name out of the the rules debate has made me loose all interest in this server.

Yeah I wondered when I put that bit in about DN's/BCV's not being allowed to claim kills <snicker>
Looks like we need a new techie!
Benefits & Pay are...well non existant but you
can keep the warm cuddly feeling you get from helping me all to yourself! ;D
-
And I guess you get that warm cuddly feeling that comes when Kroma helps himself to you ;)
-
No no,
Kroma and i are through
You'll notice he hasn't posted interest or intent on playing on this server,
unfortunately he was ll ready too when DH backed out.
<sniff>
seems if DH doesn't want to play then Kroma won't be around.. I feel so used..
and abandoned for an Andorian.. must be the blue balls..
-
Well I think you do need a few less rules as well and more Cowbell!

.....
You know I have no idea where tha comes from.. back to google
Actually (personally) I don't think there's that many rules
1) Top 3 1V1 PVP player get VP for their sides
2) No PVP kills made in a DN or BCV count towards rule #1
3) No mission in which you have a wing counts towards #1
Disengagement tagainst planets/ bases is being discussed. Throwing PMs back and forth with a few on how
it can or can not work
-Possibly considering expanding the "out of hex" time for disengagement to encourage people to smash our ships up
(say 20 minutes for destruction/60 for running)
-Working on the relative VP's of hexes/bases to make them worth about 80-90% of the VP total.
Other than the fairly simple PVP rules (if you're alone you get points, if you're not you don't) there isn't even close to as many rules
as any recent server.
Other things (updatedish)
-Carriers are out except for one or two ships (I'd like to take them all out- but I don't wnt to ruin it
if anyone's been looking forward to fed fighters)
- Mutli ship fleets are out
-droneboats & escorts are still out
- I'm (still) wavering on the year issue, lot of requests to run it in early
Problem is there's CC's/CA's/CL'sDD's and not much else.
Plus I think the later years a re abit more fun
-I've wiped the ideas of "secret VC's" as too many people have sent PMs claiming it's "too complicated" so Xships are out.
As I've asid- I rad (and consdier) each and every PM and note here. Only thing I ask though is
*please* actually make a case
"PVP Victory points cause problems, Map based VP's don't"
is a BS topic .VP's cause stress <----- this is a bad PM to send me
"You're an idiot, and you're overcomplicating this due to x y z" <---- this is a <sigh> good PM to send me
(as long as it has the x y z thing)
"My Cat's name is Mittens" <---- These are the PM's I really like ;D (thanks J'inn!)

My cat's name is Hexx, is was Simba but it changed when he got fixed ;D

1) Top 3 1V1 PVP player get VP for their sides
What do you do when you have a 2-way tie for first, a 3-way tie for second, and a 6-way tie for third? ... Split 'em?

Yep- the points are there to reward or let the guys who like PVP feel they've contributed, they're not
designed to determine the winner . (Of course they may, but..)

Mrogue, send me a PM with your OS type and I will send you a detailed tweak guide on how you can get between 64 to 84 K on your dialup and how to be a lot more stable in PVP games... that is of course that your ISP is not throtteling your connection (capping it at 52K like some Dial-up services will do [AOL]).
-
Good News!
J'inn has said he'll handle this so the draft is no longer something I have any
legallly defeined responsibility for.
Did Sears ever bow to Destiny and accept the leadership nomination of the Evil Feds?
-
Sign me up. Strongly prefer PvP to hex flipping, though I can do both. And my skills are even approaching acceptable, having not been killed even once on the last server! :rwoot: Have broadband cable so that is not an issue. Main issue with me is time. Got a wife, two small boys, and a house in the middle of a major do-it-yourself renovation, so I can't commit to being on every night. Probably one out of every two nights at best, and then probably for a max of approx 3 hours. Will get the occasional "free evening" where the wife is out with the girls or visiting her folks, where I can pull a marathon session.

Sign me up as cannon fodder, I mean fresh meat, no that's not it :-\ oh yah, hex flipper. Isn't that what you get when you cross Hexx with a dolphin ;D

iam a better hex flipper than pvp

Flipper....But, I'm not running from a fight thats for sure..... :2gun:
-
Both, but in fed I'm sure my PVP sucks.
Say hex flipping as I go for the VC's, assuming the VC's are hex based
-
I'm still not good at PvP yet. Probably won't have time to get good, so I'm a hex flipper. Still, I'll give PvP a go when I have a chance to swing it.

I can do both

I would enjoy taking part in this campaign, though it's been a while since I've play OP. Re-installed it the other day. I assume there will be a mod I need to apply to play?
Anyhow - if this is still an open invite, I'd love to take part. Put me on whatever team needs folks. BTW - I don't currently have a headset/mich so if TS is "required" I may have to sit this one out.....
though hopefully not:)

Put me on the list if you please - and tell me where I am flying (my preference - if it matters - would be with the UFP so I can wing Ducky)

You can use TS and just listen in.. also Headset microphones are only $4 at Best Buy.. so easy to get one if you like to..
TS is not required, but you will have to keep in mind that not many use the text chat system built in game.

Thanks Pestalence,
Now that I've rooted around, I did find an older headset. I may try to run TS off my laptop (which is also running a EAW fun server "Fringe"). I'm guessing that it wasn't too late to sign on for Mirror Mirror :D
I just ran the installer - and will check out the test server soon.
Is there a TS address already?

Couldn't find the sign up thread, and have already been playing some as Terran. Sign me up as a hex flipper, and will change teams if necessary.

Oh, there IS a sign up thread. Woops! After seeing more red than blue the last few days, and having the red console kill my eyesight, I hope y'all don't mind if I log in with a blue account :)

Be glad to have you Judge as many of the latecommers have been signing on as Terrans.

Great, get to fly wing with him, now get to kill him(Judge), makes me think of Hexx for some reason ;D

Well, I should be on in a bit (have to run to get milk for grandma). I just got back from the boyfriend's in Sacramento and there wasn't really much time to do anything online.

Oh, and yeah I'm in a real good mood.
