Well thats sorta why we have councilors for suggestion funneling. It will not be any easier to let everyone submit their solution and sort it out with our without them. Testers are always in demand. One of the councilors above is a server owner and just provided valuable information as to how the fixed a problem with their server crapping out to the tester team.
thank you sir
give a special welcome to ToasterBorst tho ,The most energetic and dedicated man I have seen in a while :D
No, they don't. Just give them a decent set symmetrical pattern. That's literally all we need. Replace whatever crappy hard coded pattern is currently in use with a new one.
There have been SO MANY suggestions for rebalancing pulse. Short range pulse launchers, expanding death ring launchers, wave-motion cannons, even just making it do damage more consistently. What have we gotten out of it? NOTHING. Do the devs not find an entire 1/4th of the weapons being COMPLETELY FUCKING USELESS to be of any priority whatsoever?
Seeing as how testers have time to test new features while making sure of this already, I see zero point in this line of thinking.
PD encourages people to spam hundreds of missiles, which is bad for performance. Why? A nuke is the same as a micromissile for PD. Missiles need health to reduce this. PD also can't track a missile moving anywhere not directly towards it. PD aims at missiles that MISSED! PD makes your ship more susceptible to ion because swarmers target docked entities and shots hitting docked entities BYPASS PASSIVES ON THE MAIN SHIP. HAVING PD MAKES YOU *WEAKER* TO MISSILES. Not only that, having PD turrets in any reasonable number on your ship (absolutely necessary for dealing with lone missiles since their aim is crap) makes docking HELL on the client and the server! The client should not drop to 5 FPS and everyone's pings shouldn't spike to 4k because someone decides to dock a ship with 20 PD turrets on it.
Actually if true then that is legitimately sad to hear.
As I stated before, please do not assume that your desired changes that have not made it into the game are the same as us ignoring suggestions overall. I will be honest. It is really not a priority. This is a feature that is already in the game. It does not break the game. It doesn't prevent you from playing it. It sucks that it does virtually nothing for you right now and I will acknowledge that. But Schine has laid down the plans. It can be found in the development direction post. There is an entire half of the game that is not existent whatsoever. NPC'c, factions, crew, exploration and more. We need everything on the board before we go back and make sure that this one unobtrusive weapon system is fixed. This is the harsh reality of game development. Why do you think DayZ gets criticism? Bohemia can't going to spend time making sure you never ever hear that sound glitch that plagued the game forever BEFORE they work on the new renderer and unimplemented features.
I was referring to Toasterborst.
Kek, that's how I felt when I discovered tomino was on the redit
Ah, poor tomino. I'm afraid nothing can save him now... he's just too far gone v.v
Does this stuff need to be discussed in public forum? if there is concern, take it up with him personally next time he is online. Im sure he will square it away, this is a breach of privacy. why can't people just stay on topic say congrats to the new guys and move on, bickering about silly stuff isn't going to solve anything. this thread is so derailed from the intended purpose it's not even funny.
Interestingly enough, since you brought up the topic, you are the only councilor who doesn't even have an application on file. How did you get on the ballot? Dalmont at least has an application.
Your vote might have gone through, we got far more votes this election than the last.Ok, so 2 of my top 7 got in.
1 more from my potentials.
The next 3 are former councilors who, by their own admission on the application, don't really have time to be councilors.
And then...

Meh, whatever.
If the screwed up voting system had accepted my votes I figure I scored 2.5 out of 7.
Good enough, I feel represented. I know my priorities do not coincide with the majority, but at least I will be heard.
Congrats to the Council Elect. All eyes are now on you, no pressure. :D
Get to work.
It didn't. I got an invalid due to time out every single time. I can only type so fast, it was the damn randomizer that screwed me.
Ahh, that makes more sense then. Thank you. (still a 2.5 score, sorry TB)
Did someone say favoritism towards youtubers?!
Warning points get handed out like candy here, they're not a definitive "this guy is bad".
We apologise for any issues with voting, how many candidates were you trying to vote for? What was the exact error?
Of the 45 applicants, only 3 received warning points after they submitted their application. Candy or not, 93.3% of the applicants were capable of avoiding them.
I was voting for 17 potentials, and had to hunt for them every time. I do not remember the exact error, but it was along the lines of 'your submission is invalid'. I got it all five times I tried to submit, had to refresh, find all my candidates, rank them, and got denied again.
I got warning points for a joke, it's pointless to judge someone based on points without context.
Hrm, that's definitely not right. Timeouts shouldn't be happening that quickly, I'll look at some of the threads I saw with issues/improvements on the council page and send them to the web team.
