    Mmmm, I love fireworks. I am in.

    Well, if you have an idea in mind and wouldn't mind doing the unwrap for me, I might try and model/texture something. And maybe, just maybe this something won't have more poligons than several vehicles combined. XD Ahem. But yea, there might be something I can do. True. But Allies also have a way to sustain themselves both indoors and outdoors via medics. They also have one of the best building killers - Tanya. A fair compromise I think. Hmm. But what weapon would it be? Mortar maybe? Has to be something which would make sense in the setting. I mean I am not against infantry artillery at all, even with somewhat decent extended range, just not stealth infantry artillery with common-sense defying characteristics (*cough* 110m frag grenade throw *cough*). But what would that accomplish? I thought that for splash to work, it has to reach a certain "center" of an object which would make leg, head and some arm shots not counting splash at all. Maybe just bump up upper chest damage multiplier? This would help just about everyone, I think.

    And a question from the "other side of the barricades" if you wish. How low would you want skill ceiling to be? One of the things, besides tech levels (eugh D:) which killed APB in Gamma was exactly dumbing down the importance of individual skill levels. Sure enough, W3D games aren't Quake or Doom where people with 20+ years of experience will mop the floor with you without breaking a sweat. You can still kill people like Pyryle or me, and quite easily at that when using the right tools/strats because W3D actually offers you these in the form of classes, vehicles and counters between those. Sure enough if you charge 1 on 1 into skill superior player with equal classes and conditions, you will most likely die. That's how games work in general. For the matter of fact, compared to games like BF series or Overwatch, APB is extremely generous in giving you a fighting chance against just about anything you meet. Say, in BF4 a veteran would've 3-headshotted you from behind a crate 70m away in under a second before you even knew where he was firing from. Or just stabbed you from behind for an instant kill. Or flanked you with a suppressed weapon. And don't even get me started on jets, snipers, C4s and claymore mines. In W3D you have a minimap which almost always works, reasonable TTK with far less insta kills, better general visibility and easily detectable traces on nearly every weapon worth worrying about (Tanya is the only exception I can think of). Maps are smaller and respawns are faster. After all, if you reduce the distance between skill floors and ceilings, what reason would there be to get better over time? One thing I would suggest though is to reduce bullet damage against vehicles and esp. tanks. Light vehicles may be fine as they are, but capt shouldn't be a reliable counter to meds/HTs. Maybe reduce bullet effectiveness against building exterior/defenses also (applies to rangers as well)? We got rockets for that after all. Maybe if body shots feel too weak to people, go to 4x HS multiplier with according tweaks to guns? I just feel like high risk-high reward stuff like slug rounds or tri-shots HS should still be worth trying if you know what you are doing.

    Because I broke into Irish's lab and used DMail the night before. So I was on cooldown and couldn't send another TM-related action. Because to break into the lab I needed to be part of said lab at some point in time and then get kicked. You can't break into the lab you were never a part of. I asked Cat5 about that actually.
  5. Chaos_Knight
    So paradox worked out in our favor after all. We have successfully made R3 role impossible to exist. Hooray! I was right, Irish DID try to kamikadze a huge chunk of alive players. Heheh. Nice try but no. Also, @Jeod. I can confirm that KMod's original plan was to make Irish and Misa/Retal the bad guys but he messed something up during the planning of Time Machine actions. Tbh I suspected it might happen before the plan was resolved Obviously you can see that it went to hell when KY got lynched D1 and flipped as RS during the time lines alterations. He never even said was had one back then. That locked you as Org and caused a massive reverse casualty. Once the dust had settled, and I found myself outside the lab and with none of the people from my crew alive, there was nothing I could change. Not even to try and break in the lab at night to use the Time Machine since I never even was in a lab in that timeline. Even more so, I found myself with Mr I-wanna-be-the-bad-guy and 2 people with next to 0 understanding of game mechanics because they were either dead or near-AFK the whole game. And one of those 2 people had a solo control over the Time Machine. GG. I had no time/capabilities to alter the past at that point only to try and salvage what we had at hand. When Irish kicked me out from the lab, on the very next night I used my Golden Upa to break into the lab and use a TM to make sure Irish was never a lab leader. Should've probably put myself in the position of power though, rather than KMod. Oh well.

    That will create a clusterfuck of epic proportions. I don't even want to try and think of who will end up where if we do that. Keep in mind that lynching you now will still give you a chance to win as Org if you wish.
  7. Chaos_Knight
    That might be the case. However, we have to take risks into account. For example if we lynch Voe and he would be locked in as Org, as I said before, we'll both die through reverse casualty and Voe would win the game for Org on D7 start. There would be no way to recover that. If we lynch you, and you turn up as Org (one of the ways to solve the paradox is to reassign you as R3 for the day) and kill Voe N6. I will be left 1v1 against you on D7 and would have to figure out the "emergency actions" or lose. Sadly, it seems that for the town to have a chance at winning, we'd have to lynch you.
  8. Chaos_Knight
    Which as I said is an interesting case. I visited Irish N4, right after Jeod died as R1. Because Irish got lynched D6, my RC has dropped to 0 (because he survived meeting me thus I can't be a Rounder). Since there's only one Rounder left, Org chance also went to 0. You might've figured it out since your RC and OC went from 25 to 50 after Irish's death. But this is where it gets interesting. Voe visited you last night. If you are lynched today and flip as Town... there would be no person with R3 chance bigger than 0. That would basically be a paradox. Something I can't yet figure out how to solve properly.
  9. Chaos_Knight
    Because until someone is locked in as scum either through lynch or impossibility for anyone else to be scum, they could also be town. And by "could" I mean that there's a chance for that roll basically. So until the chance is eliminated, anyone can be a number of roles/alignments. Basically, when Cat5 says that "today you are Rounder #X", it doesn't mean that you become an actual Rounder for a phase. It only means that if you happen to die today, your death would lock you in as a Rounder.
  10. Chaos_Knight
    That is my main concern. If Voe is confirmed as scum, then I'd die N5 and you N6 through reverse casualty. This way on D7 start of the final timeline Voe would be alone and Org. Basically Org would win.
  11. Chaos_Knight
    *how come not home come. I can't even type anymore
  12. Chaos_Knight
    Well, here's the thing. If we lynch you today, we'll create a paradox. If you flip VT as claimed, Voe wouldn't be able to be R3 because, well, he visited you but game-wise you'd be still alive to be locked as today's death. As a matter of fact, if Voe is town and lynched, the paradox will happen all the same but with reversed roles. However, sadly, odds aren't in your favor. If Voe is confirmed scum, we are cooked outright. If you are scum, Voe would die but I might be able to salvage this for the town. Cat5 mentioned an "emergency" action earlier. Also home come we didn't meet up when you went to Voe? Or meetings don't happen anymore once there's a confirmed Lab Lead? Eh. Right now it's you vs Voe as to who is R3. I can't be one since I visited Irish N4 but he lived to be lynched on D6. Tu-tu-ruu~

    I guess until further notice ##vote Nodlied
  14. Chaos_Knight
    What do you mean idk? You don't remember what you did last night? I wonder where is Nodlied anyway?
  15. Chaos_Knight
    Come to think of it. And did you visit Nodlied last night? I assumed it but never confirmed it. Goes to both @Nodlied (check your AC aka Alive Chance) and @Voe (What are your results?)
  16. Chaos_Knight
    Alright, and did your AC drop?
  17. Chaos_Knight
    Oh and yea. If we lynch Voe while Nodlied is scum, we are still cooked.
  18. Chaos_Knight
    Alright, enough with toying around and let's get down to cold hard facts. If Voe is scum, we are cooked. He visited me N5 and Nodlied N6. We lynch him today, we all go down in flames. If we lynch Nodlied while Voe is scum, we go down also and in an instant. If Nodlied is scum, we could win. He was firmly set at visiting himself for the whole time since Jeod died D4. We lynch him, Voe and I will survive, and Town would win. Now, Voe. Did Nodlied drop into your lab by any chance? Since ya know, you visited him while he visited himself? Tu-tu-ruu~
  19. Chaos_Knight
    So you two should sort it out between yourselves now. Let the battle to win my heart, mind and vote begin! Also Nodlied still visited himself last night I think. Since we didn't meet up at Voe's and I am not dead. Yet. Tu-tu-ruu~
  20. Chaos_Knight
    Just a heads up. This and many other points where Irish himself confirmed that I have visited him on N4. Thus I have 0% chance of being scum/killer as we speak. On the other hand I know for a fact you visited Nodlied last night because I dropped at your place but didn't join your lab.
  21. Chaos_Knight
    I'd like to point out that 3rd Time Machine detection might mean RIP town. At least I remember hearing it quite a few times during the game. Just saying. Tu-tu-ruu~
  22. Chaos_Knight
    And if Voe wins... eh, at least I'd have a laugh. And Jeod would get something for all of his efforts in this game. So fair enough.
  23. Chaos_Knight
    That's an oddly specific list of people.
  24. Chaos_Knight
    The fact that I am not scum while you would gain basically free reign because Nodlied is apparently cba to learn the mechanics, and neither does Voe. If we lynch you, I will gain free reign myself but I will be confirmed as not scum since I visited you on N4. So it would be a matter of trying to figure out if Nodlied or Voe are current R3. Also I have all the reasons to doubt your pro-Town intentions And I don't think I am the only one.
  25. Chaos_Knight
    Well, at least someone is having fun. I guess ##vote Irish
