Re: Into the Precipice I go!

Whats your favorite Jumpgate Classic faction?
Do you have nightmares about the flux like I do?

More serious question...

Who do I need to bribe (err, persuade) to get a beta invite?

  • Is there any part of space where a player can not shoot another player via game mechanics (i.e. I can put them in my crosshairs and pull the trigger and they take no damage)?
  • Is a level 30 ship "better" than a level 15 ship in every way, or is there a reason a level 30 player might want to fly a level 15 ship?

I think that will do for a start

I don't have a favorite Jumgate: C Faction. I'm still undecided on which faction I'm going to belong to in Evolution. I've read the backstory and they're all very intriguing. I'm the kind of person that waits for everyone at the table to order because I can't decide between the ribs or the chicken.

I will accept all kinds of bribery but alas I cannot guarantee you a beta slot.. but please.. don't hesitate to send them anyway!

I'm afraid that I can't answer those questions. It's not that I don't necessarily have the answers, but we need to save some of the mechanics for when you get into the game. Who likes having all of the knowledge beforehand anyway? I can say that as we move along before launch some of these questions will be answered and by someone much more qualified than I.

Actually I do, I remember I found Jumpgate when I was browsing the old Multiplayerdotcom site and went to jossh/flight academy and started reading EVERYTHING while I was on the waiting list for beta.

Finally, the day arrived, the beta invite and I didnt feel much of a noob knowing so much beforehand. Of course, there are others things that you do that also make the noob of you but that's another story.

So you can only do fluff questions and repeat the same information that's been released elsewhere?

Re: Into the Precipice I go!

I got poked. netburnrol, if you knew your forums password, it should be fixed. If you didn't, then please mail me and we can set up a new one.

And GrimGriz - I know you can be friendlier than that. Please?

Re: Into the Precipice I go!

she can answer the questions she'll answer. trying to knock her around isn't going to change it. Lighten up, it's just a game.

I didn't say that. I said that I can't answer those specific questions. Please read the post about mushrooming.

Also, you can get in my face about things if you want. I guess you guys took a beating from past CMs. However, after a month or two I'm not going to feel sorry about it anymore and I will ignore you. I don't expect you to be all fluffy in my general direction, but I do expect you to treat me with a bit of respect.


Ok keep bringing them on. If I don't answer them this week I will get together with the team and see what I can answer here.
