Change to mods Suggestion

[Chet]

Things i think should be done:
No cloaks or afterburners
Limit of 2-3 of one mod type

[FortyTwoAxes]

noaaaa we need cloak how else are we supposed to hide and we need after burners how else are we gonna out run nukes and we need no limit on mods!!!
i mean realy are you tryna put 1 vs 1 back into this game

[Cloud1]

We have other servers to make 1 on1 battles possible.

Thou, I think flight mods/ab/pd should be nerfed and tested so you're able to hit someone with a nuke and dodge. I also think nukes should be faster and increased damage to counter balance those mods.'

I seen your video with the nukes and PD Forty, I think the pd should take more energy to use, so at least few of those did damage.

[Chet]

just suggesting this because all mod server combat is NOT FUN because someone gets PD cloak or AB or they just decide to get 7-8 flights its not skill its just stupid.

I seen your video with the nukes and PD Forty, I think the pd should take more energy to use, so at least few of those did damage.

That video was b4 he nerfed pd back when i was recording it was 200 energy each time you use it now its 400 energy to use it

I think during the whole time i was recording i was the only one using it cause i was spectating but people were still using cloak and flights with ab

mod balancing is wayyyyy more complicated than this idea suggests. If you do that then people will abuse p/d.

[NightgraderP6]

Instead of a limit to the number of mods, why not give the most abused a down side. (Personally, I'd like to see mods limited to only 3, and weapons and scanners back to being separate. But Toonces will never do that.)

Plating: The added weight from each plate would reduce turning by 1, acceleration by 2, and top speed by 3. (this could also apply for extra cargo holds)

Flights would require a small amount of energy regeneration be sacrificed (kinda like turbo) for the gain in speed. Say maybe 5 points per flight. (this could also apply to thrust and turning mods)

The reason i am suggesting the low numbers, is that they should only have a "mild" (<-- Key word) negative effect on ship performance. Thus you gain the performance you want at the cost of giving up something else. Give and take style of balance.

Just make the effects ramp. 1-3 plates give full bonus, 4th 50% bonus, 5th 25%, etc.

This prevents any nerfing from slowing gameplay down, and encourages diversity.

i use 4 plates, i say no because building is boring as hell the way it is, i like 8 cargo mods and without ab's and 7 flights, you can't dodge nukes.

you can dodge with 3 suits and about 3 flights it just takes skill-- I thin nukes should be changed too though

No Weapon mods period, Performance and building mods r fine

Weapon/cloak mods make me feel like i have to juggle mods every 10 minutes because my enemies decide theyre getting cloaks or afterburners or pd. I'd rather just hugging fight rather then worrying about changing mods every couple kills.

Pretty much every player ive seen has abused the crap out of every weapon mod they can, and it makes fighting very frustrating and unbalanced and skill, useless.

Performance mods (Plates Flights Energy Turning Thrust) are fine and give enough diversity to keep fighting interesting and every player's ship different.

[Cloud1]

having 8 plates and 7 flight have the same result fighting in a 1 on 1 or 2 vs 2. The solution would be not 2 play a mod server, or wait for this new server to bang.

Toonces also should nerf some of these mods, and test out most combo's to make a fair balance.

[Mr Cow]

Hahaha cloud if u need 7 flights to outrun nukes u fail! i can dodge with 0 artist afts, and 3 flights!!

[JesusRocks765]

I voted the 3rd one

Honestly, this is a terrible Idea - if you dont want mods than play a NO-MOD Server, Maybe Toonces should just make 2 servers, Vet server and Noob Server

(off topic: Why is "Noob" Censored in game? o.O)

[FortyTwoAxes]

lol this BBQ will die down and some one else will remake this topic slightly different its no use arguing, toonces doesn't have a brain hes a zombie!!!
what im trying to say is this is like the 20th topic with this same argument Maybe a 21st topic will change his mind
