Jedi Knight

Ok sry for teh weird title, wait i'm not sry. :D

Anyway I have an Idea on how to fix the teaming up when people start dueling. Because God know's that even when people announce a duel some idiotic noob and/or *sshole is going to interfere. So why not create a sector or place where 2 or more people could go after paying a certain fine to a certain program that will put them in their own personalized arena. They would then be able to duel without interference. Here's some things the program would ask and do.

Player: Jm262 vs. 3 other people In say sector 18 where the program would be

<Jm262> /msg "Dueling Program" (insert # of players) duel, so for example it would be "4 player duel"

<Dueling Program> Please insert the 3 other players for duel

<Jm262> "player1" "player2" "player3"

<Dueling Program> Dueling fee is 1000c per player, your total is 4000c

Note: each player would pay their 1000c

<Jm262> /givemoney "Dueling Program" 1000c

<Dueling Program> Thank You, how many rounds would you like

<Jm262> Insert # of rounds

The dueling program will then take all of the players you listed as long as they are in sector 18, or where ever program would be, and you would then duel.

So what does everyone think

That is an excellent suggestion that would help the interfearence of other players so you can have your own duel with no interuptions good suggestion.

just go to 15 or 13 and space out a couple f kms from a warphole "4 - 6 is enough".

Don´t put in all these fancies solutions.

cheers

What does JK stand for? It's a good idea, I just don't understand the reference.

You could always go the JK route for duels.

You issuse a challange command when facing your target, if they accept then both players are surounded by a glowing aura. They cannot be harmed by those not in the duel and cannot harm those not in the duel. Powerups (or in Vendetta's case staions) are un-useable. The winner of the duel is rewarded with repairs so that they are not picked off the second the duel ends.

this would be pretty cool
suggestion make it so after the duel begins the station is closed

i hate when the person you are dueling runs out of ammo and runs to station to repair/reload

closed only to the duelers though!

Rene had a really good point. its much simpler just to turbo off for a while.

thank you mod.

well yeah it would be easier to just space out a couple kms but it does take a while to get there and it doesn't guarentee 100% safety from every player in that sector. Plus it's just cooler to have a separate sector.

Oh and one more thing, the program could have a scoreboard to show who gets most kills in duels and stuff and then it would be posted on a site.

and Rorman2k, there woudln't be a station in the separate sector.

I like the JKII idea, but I also think that this does not need to be instituted until much later in the development cycle. Part of polishing up rather than a key feature of the game now. It's not a big deal really.

"It's not a big deal really."

Of course.

I didn't expect the devs to drop everything and start on this, this is just an idea that would make dueling much easier and more between the people that are dueling. I would expect to see something of this nature turn up within a couple updates before main stream release and the end of the beta.

"I would expect to see something of this nature turn up within a couple updates before main stream release and the end of the beta."

That could be a long time. The beta has not begun yet. This is a test of the game-engine, remember?

No, most people just skip through the info searching for the magical register button and download button.

yeah that sounds about right :D
