Boards.ie Factions Server 1.3

Kenno90 · 17-08-2012 9:34am

In other news Jeb is developing an invisibility potion it'll completely hide you and your name in SMP servers.

Armour (and most likely tools) stay visible so if you want to go sneaking around you have to go with no protection.

Would be very cool for factions , here's hoping its in 1.3.3

i think one of the problems is theres not enough active players on the server to combat an awe/mnc raid. tryin to defend our base when it was me and niall against nim and gav was fun but what chance was there when the 2 of us were up against 5-6 of them.

Thats because its two large factions working together, you could just as easily ally with another faction and do the same to them.

I'm not taking sides but you honestly can't tell them to back off because there is 5 of them and only 2 of you, sure when our base was raided, it was a them against podge on his own.

im not sayin they should back off just pointin out server needs more active players most ive seen online at once since the raids on DT is 10-11

Did you look at the new updates? Obsidian bases under the sea are no longer 100% safe. Sure Creeps base was the exact same as ours, an obsidian cube under the sea in the middle of no where.

When a player is on from that team, you can destroy that obsidian and gain entry into the base.

You talk about it not being fun attacking an obsidian cube under the water. I can't speak for the other lads, but I had great fun trying to figure out how to stop the water source blocks above the roof so that I could break the obsidian without drowning.

The problem with a factions server is that everyone has an opinion and no matter how many changes are made to the rules, you never going to please everyone. I know that AWE and MnC were no happy with the new changes but we adapted to them and used them against Creeps.

That is true, you can't keep everyone happy. That's why my game changes are just my opinions being thrown out there, nothing more.

Exactly. This is how we can develop the server and adapt the current rules to try and make it as balanced as possible. Whining about past or present raids doesn't really add anything to the game. Making suggestions and debating them provides from a constructive environment.

So I've been away for the last week and just after catching up on the latest news. I saw in one of nim's screenshots that he had waypoints on his screen. Is this an extra plug in? Also people mentioned automap?

I may be the culprit for that, hopefully with another faction to fix their sites on you, awe and everyone else things may come out differently ;P.
Not saying we're going to attack anyone for sure, but everyone may just wanna watch their backs its Armageddon time

I would like to report everyone for playing factions correctly.

How dare they actually play right! They should get banned or teleported to an island so they can fight byselves while the rest of us play Hello kitty island adventure.

Hey, Dec was the one who said you could not stop people logging
Btw Gav, at this moment, you have logged twice on me, bobage has logged once.

So I guess there will be no more complaining?

Honey, All's fair in love and war XxX

Have to say, in honesty, this is what we need on the faction server. I was talking to the lads earlier about how boring it had become. Now we have something to fight for. I think we have gaynor to thank for it.
Hope the rest of you don't stay allied for too long or else we will see they same stale environment coming back again.

Now to go into hiding

MnC may be a little dazed, but we're not knocked out.

Base 2.0 is gone but not forgotten... time to move on with the next project

and to think niall & Co were thinking of leaving the Boards.ie server becuase we attacked them :P

I mined and enchanted most of the gear, got the troops, inflicted most of the damage. I must Commend Gaynor and the Armageddon team for giving me some hope and for coming up with the plan in the first place, lets face it, without them it would not have happened. To finish I would like to point out our group was getting fed up, the reason was not that of fear in response to your attack, however was due to the same reasons you listed above, the server was just getting boring, we didn't see much in the future that warranted hours of playing, however when I was made aware of this plan, I became amused.
I would also like to thank everyone involved; our team and MnC.

right some problems we had while raidin last night

1 alot of the blocks in mnc's base could not be destroyed, we took damage from when they broke but they reapeared instantly
game message said they were owned by players not mnc?
2 could not break doors
3 tnt done no damage
4 chests inacessible and also could not be destroyed by tnt

dont know if these are bugs or not, have mnc/awe had the same problems?

Dale Parish · 20-08-2012 10:49am

The first one is the genius in the design of the base.
As for the "owner" thing, I think it's a bug. It kept telling me yesterday that our land was "Public Faction Land"

nope wasnt the design we noticed that and blocked water from recreating obsidian on the roof, it was still happening in your actual base on the lower levels

1. That is a feature of our base. It rebuilds the obsidian when it is destroyed.
2. Not sure about this. Think they shouldn't be breakable tbh.
3. Tnt cannot destroy obsidian and water shields blasts from tnt, so does lava.
4. Land is claimed by us so of course they are inaccessible.

He has already stated that its not the obsidian rebuilding, we literally couldn't break the blocks in your base after we had gotten inside.
