Parents will bring trauma to kids. It's the normal cycle. It can at least be fun...

Good but at the same time would kind of make this game dumb web browser games are stupid but it would attract people.Heath wrote:the only way is to contact jabjabjab from tw, and find out how far he got with a web browser version of the game...
the game in a browser is the only way to get a lot of people... possibly thousands per zone ...
-people should ideally be able to just casually log in and chat while doing their usual browsing/research or play.
-while the game loads, there would be an optional 'flash introduction' with a screenshot (+ links to a youtube video training series) and a moving arrow to highlight all the items on screen stuff. combining the most useful info so that newbs dont feel completely lost.
and then if you are so addicted, spend some time figuring out how to get it into a browser, the possibilities, what resources you'd need, maybe map it out on the forums and e-mail all the SS programmers you can, combined ask them to chip in a little coding here and there... learn some yourself. build a team.
seek out and contact the people who made a stripped down facebook version of the game as well (unless that was jabjabjab's attempt), ask them what the pitfalls were. of course, as ideally, you want to be able to use the same bots etc, the same key defs changeability, and choose between two zones (tw+eg)
maybe it's possible.
but i can tell you, if you mapped out what needs to be done, what have been the pitfalls in the project and assembled a massive team of keen past+present pilots, you'd have a real chance.
Hey beasted should strt playing again. Anyways they have been fixing pub alot lately. Its been more active and went back to old maps the current map they have is pretty good. Been alot more pub games lately some pretty good ones.BEASTED wrote:EG should just fuck the pub, and become a baseduel zone. and keep side things like elitete
if it's no longer fun, remember that zones are run by players, in theory; anyone can make it fun.odi wrote: The zone is dead, gone, it's history. As lee states there's nothing going on, we have people that literally are unknown as mods, there are no events that are fun to play, there's literally nothing. I will log on say once every 6 months for about 30 seconds to 5 minutes, realise there's nothing to do, shit talk thecript a little then log off. That's literally all EG is nowadays, a glorified social platform
Your wrong odium EG has became way more active there has been 35 people in baseduel for a long time now seems like its been way more active during the week to which is good because it was never like that and people are coming back and the new head mods are doing a good job now!Odi wrote:If you check my posts on other threads regarding this matter, I have said the zone is dead and explained the same valid reasoning as i have in this topic. 1 "super active" game is not proof the zone is alive at all. That match maybe going on, but it's no way near the scale of 10 years ago, people used to fight to get into the arena to play the game, they would wait until a spot opened up, now that never happens, because people don't care, competition dead = game is dead.
I haven't tried the backpeddle, what the fuck are you talking about you ignorant fuck. All i done was expand on my meaning because you seemed to struggle to understand what I and countless others have said, plus a full stacked freq game would be 3 teams, not 2 and a bit.
It's not pessimistic, it's the truth, again countless other people have said it too.
So what, you've played longer than me and before my time blah blah blah, all those hours put into a game, to have the only thing you're known for as a map maker and some graphics, Good job. I've played less and have lost more skill than you will ever have in this game. I suggest you go back to making maps, it was the only thing you could do.
Yes the population has dropped but it hasn't dropped low enough where the game cant function isn't its staffs job to try and keep the zone fun and keep people playing instead of saying stuff like your saying almost making it sound like you don't care pretty rediculess if you ask meBaptism wrote:We cannot deny that the overall population of Subspace is slowly decreasing. Ultimately, in the long run, there will be nothing that we can do to stop it.
However, with that said, we have to be proud that we have made Extreme Games last as long as it has. What we do now with the time is really what matters. We are actively attempting to find ways to ensure retention. It is rather difficult to attract new players to this game, especially since online gaming has evolved, while Subspace has not.
Enjoy the moments you are presented with, rather than your pathetic pessimism. It is everything but constructive.

Very true but what made pub more fun was competeing for squads and playing aganst ether squads but that is true tho no pub no people for squads to recruitAirduster wrote:no pub = no squads
