[UI] alternative to hellstorm

what i'm going to try to describe, is called the fracture cannon

here's it's base stats

FRC-1
damage: 10,000-15,000
cooldown: 5-10 secs haven't decided
ammo: unique to it
range: 500 or to the edge of view (cant hit what you cant see)
hit probably: 65%
crit chance: 8%

FRC-2
damage: 15,000-19,000
cooldown: 3-5 secs undecided
ammo: unique to it
range: 500 or to the edge of view(naturally)
hit probably: 70%
crit chance: 10%

INFO
this weapon has a shield penetration of 30% for the first target only
all other targets caught in its fire receives half damage(mean if the first target gets 15000, the next one gets 7500, third 3750, fourth 1875, fifth 938) with no penetration, and up to 5 targets max.

you CAN NOT have both this and the hellstorm equipped
and only 1 of these is allowed per config

each round consumes 1 round of ammo

AMMO
charge rounds

CHR-10
does standard damage 5 second charge time before firing

CHR-25
adds 2500 addition damage to shot 4 second charge time

CHR-50
adds 5000 additional damage, 3 second charge time

CHR-100
adds 10000 additional damage, 3 second charge time

CHR-UBER
adds 25000 additional damage, 2 second charge time

UPGRADES:
shield penetration +0.04%/ damage +0.10%
uri only

no auction.

i am debating on it being a gate only reward, weapon and ammo, or making it a buy able item, although, if its gonna be a buy able item i'm thinking

weapon: uridium 20,000-25,000

ammo, debating on pricing it similar to hellstorm, or make it all uri
if all uri is acceptible
then

CHR-10 = 10 uri

CHR-25 = 100 uri

CHR-50 = 250 uri

CHR-100 = 500 uri

CHR-UBER = 1500 uri




i think i balanced this as much as possible, i didn't overpower it i don't think

and i think everything else is reasonable, but that's where you guys come in.

these things are subject to change.

 

we have enough rockets and damage so no

 

Sorry must agree with Alky-jr to many rockets and other. No new rocket launchers please.

 

Same opinion as two previous posters.

 

Are you playing a pirate game and then play here Space has solar flares - that might suit you better in wording than cannons.

 

well, thats it, i'm done, you guys. just, ugh. fine, fine. you guys wanna spend years trying to play a game, you can never beat, you can never get ahead, to the point were you were you are willing to throw away hundreds of dollars to line some rich boy's pocket, go ahead.

at least i tried to put some descent ideas into this guy so there's more opportunity for ALL PLAYERS.

i'm done with forums

 

Hey, with your prices, I dont think this idea would please the "poor" players. This would be more dmg addition for huge U. That would use UFEs mostly.

 

I dont think that would be the best idea.

 

well i was having a bad day, and i lost my temper back there, so my apologies. i am a free player, have been since i joined DarkOrbit, but the price wasn't over doing it, i make roughly 10k uridium a day (about 4-6 hours of work) running ubers excluding uberKristallons, uberLordiums, UberSibelons (with and without help, amount doesn't change) , 3k running boxes (5 hours of work) on pvp maps, so i wasn't exaggerating the price.

appearently ships and weapons wasn't the route i should of went, so in my next forum post, i will be putting up drone formations ( cause i never seen any ideas for formations) and ship designs for spearhead, aegis, and citadel. and maybe get a design in for credit ships, like piranha and nostromos (actually able to be gotten, not that invite friends one), and first first design for leo(i hope this one most of all, leo is a great rookie ship)

best part is, i'm not even FE

i'm aware its not the best idea, i thought at first it was a good idea, thats why i posted it here, appearently it wasn't, as told by 5 others before you

i do play pirate storm in addition to my daily activities on darkorbit and if you look at the LF-1 2 3 mp-1 descriptions in shop, they say laser cannon, so fracture cannon wasn't an absurd name to give to what is essentially a laser cannon, only beefier and more limited.

 

i think you are just talking about the flares on Seafight.. we have enough things that do damage on this game, we dont need more.

this game has enough formations, lasers, rockets, and all that, we need to focus on bots and game performance instead of things like this.
My personal opinion...

 

i never played seafight, and pirate storm doesn't have flares, no this was a unique idea i thought up and posted on here

buddy, i dont think you seen this game 3 years ago, sure there's alot more, and penalties are lessened, but it was hard, you spend all your creds get a bigboy, you got a few rep creds, and some fe on x-2 goes through your rep creds like M&M's and you either had to buy a new ship, or go back to a peanut, i went back to peanut A LOT.

just trying to make a difference in the game, besides 3 years going being someone else's favorite kill count. that's all

 

Bro, ive been playing since wild tangant games... i know how it was and this is not the solution

 

well the way to fix game performance and remove botters, is to make the game client based and not browser based, some client games even have bot and sub program scanners(it disables those programs), something, browser just don't have.

although, i don't think the dark orbit team is gonna make it a client based game.

personally, i always found variety in a game to be helpful vs. limitations.

 

Note: The thread will be re-opened only if the OP requests for it.

Enjoy the game.
