Love my Mikro mostly because I always loved the RL Mini Cooper. Now if LO made a version of a Volkswagen Beetle I would get that in a second ! NTEC/STAR for me good all around weapons.

That would get me to go for 6 months Premium ! I would love if they add more slots for your character for outfits instead of just 5.

Sounds good ! Looking forward to the changes .

Yeah I got hit twice getting disconnected and at first I thought it was just a problem on my end. Why would this happen anyway? I'm not savvy about the mechanics of online games but before I suspect it has to do with some attack on the system, 3rd party cheating programs or even devs working on something I'd like to hear some explanation from someone that knows.

Ah ok, well just thought I try to help a little .

In the hopes this exchange doesn't go into a war of words... Excalibur! I think what BXNNXD was trying to explain to you that your original was a bit off topic to what was on the thread. You might have by mistake posted in the wrong thread was all. I am sure no offense was intended.

I am very glad for all of this ! AWESOME NEWS!

The offer sounds like a real good an one I will take when it comes out !

I agree with you. I had some time to think about this and at first I thought there might be a state of panic in the LO offices that was probably a result of some of the panic that was here with the player base. That might not be the case at all (right now) with LO. If they bought the game they had to have known beforehand the likelihood that they would operate at a loss for a while before they could bring the game back up to speed in the way they want it and also to gain customers and past customers. They have in my opinion been alot better to us than G1 in that they will talk to us, I mean even the CEO talks to the player base and that to me is a big deal. They are trying things out and letting us know, they make mistakes and they own up to it and admit it. I remember hearing in the past here "working as intended" when in fact they made a mistake and couldn't even admit it (G1 I mean). We live in a very "instant gratification" society these days where everything has to be now! NOW! NOW!!! Which is why I think G1 was given so many years to get their act together and LO is getting barely 6 months to do the same. For me I am going to ride it out and see where this goes.

I said earlier it was just a wishlist not a set of demands. The thread was meant to be a fun social activity. I don't think anyone here is under the delusion that LO is going to start working on any of these right away, or at all.

Isn't the weapons sold in Joker temp guns? I could have sworn they expire after 7 days.

To start off this is just a wishlist, not a set of demands. I know LO has their own priorities and folks here will value one priority over the other. I just wanted to have a fun thread going! My big question here is, if you were asked what would you want from this game? I will start off. - sitting animations , 2 player animations. Dance animations that will cycle over and over until you move. - volume control or mute for certain players death themes that are tuned up way too loud. -Ability to make custom skins for your weapons (ok tons of reasons why this is a "no go" but I just thought to throw it out there. I'll stop with those three but would love to hear from the rest of you would like to see in the game.

I like this idea . The only thing I would suggest with it is to make it possible that the barricades are used for missions and no one outside the mission can be effected by it. Reasoning is that I can see alot of folks using it to just block up everything for kicks an in the meantime no one would be able to get around.

Maybe because for the Halloween Event they had more time to prepare for it? I really couldn't say for certain except that for some reason in most games Halloween is sort of a big deal.

Thanks for the reply !

I searched the forums and also googled it but the problem I have is finding information on the emotes, specifically the requirements to get them. They used to have a list and how to get them here in this part of the forums but it seems that was purged. Does anyone still have the list I was mentioning? If so. could ypu please post it in this thread? Much appreciated in advance.

The way I see it , the worst thing they could do right now is go silent on us. Any information at this point would go a long way to reassure the consumers that there is some progress with the projects they are trying to complete. A Progress Report or a "State of the Game" summary would do some good here as right now we have alot of folks looking at charts and getting worried. I have more than enough friends outside this game who would want to try it but the excuses I get from alot of them being hesitant is that they honestly think the game is on its last legs or other games down the road will leave this one in the dust or the community is horrible to new players. I do hope LO can turn this around and I am not about to throw in the towel just yet. I'll be patient and see if the changes that come at the end of the year helps the situation.

I get that from time to time . Also it seems to happen while driving .

I have had a similar experience coming back as far as "getting gud". For 2 weeks I had every type of death from an assortment of weapons and vehicles that one of two things would happen. Either I try to figure out a better strategy and stop dying so much or just quit this game and go back into a game where I don't have to worry about getting killed by players. I have started to get better , I still die alot in some missions but at least I get alot more kills in and sometimes I win a few of those missions. The recent high point for me in this game was when someone from the opposition (most likely a new player) accused me of hacking! It takes alot of time and very thick skin to become somewhat proficient in this game but it is possible if you are willing to stick with it. It also helps if you are somewhat insane as well!

They had more than one backpack? I thought it was just one backpack you could customize.

I dont think this is a good idea at all. For one, it would require a lot of time and resources to just even start this and also to find people, etc. Second, I wouldn't want some random player joe to teach a bunch of people when a program can do a simple tutorial and the player can learn on their own. It all just seems really redundant and a waste of resources. Those are some good points. I will try to clarify a bit more. As for time. Well for something like this it would have to be announced in advance, 3weeks? 1 month? I would say that is the least amount of time to get a sign up for this (trainees/trainers). As for resources I'm talking about one server dedicated for training the only thing I would say that would require tweaking is that trainers are in "godmode" and their weapons disabled. I don't think that would take eons to accomplish. A tutorial is all fine and well but it is basically there to teach the basics but for the "meat and potatoes" this is where I think an idea would help. I mean it's no secret that there are folks in this community that are absolutely not the friendliest sorts to a newcomer. New players are introduced to a tutorial that doesn't help all that much when they are finally in game. You compound that with advanced players that gun them down easily, players on their own team that either ridicule them and in some cases kill them outright after they go through loss after loss and is it any wonder why they leave? I think something like this idea at least gives a better perspective for new players and maybe might provide some friendships later on that would result in them staying on.

Well I remember this mentor program from about 6-7 years ago. I know one of the prerequisites was that you had to have a mic and log onto Teamspeak (because let's face it. Who wants to type that much to teach a class?) I think it could work out for a game like this or I should say I am cautiously optimistic about it, if it is done right. It would take a collaboration from the devs, trainers and trainees to make it work. For me I see it as a "win-win-win" for everyone involved. Win for the trainers as their time is going to something that awards them prizes and such (whatever LO deems fair). Win for the Trainees (and I would throw in bronze and silver players if they wanted to get in on some training but it would all depend on how many golds are willing to train) that they get some much needed help with the mechanics of gameplay and how to strategize in missions. Win for Little Orbit on a few different fronts. They don't have to put so much time and resources into a project. My thinking is allot a server just for training (I think we have one to spare). They are getting new players to stay in the game and keeping the older players motivated to stay on and get something out of this as well. I'm not going to say this the best idea out there but when I keep hearing about all these other ideas (and they are good ideas as well) that involve alot of time and resources to accomplish, it would be nice if we had something going on now that would be alot easier to do while we wait for the big changes coming.

Ok so where can I buy those socks ?

What was the requirements for getting the glowing backpack? Is it a project that would take many days to finish?

I understand both sides of the argument that came up with gamer participation to make the game better vs. customer expectations and responsibilities to them. An idea that came up for me as far as getting new comers to stay and not leaving in frustration from getting stomped on by dethreaters and whatnot is actually something I saw only once before in another game. When I was playing Star Trek Online they used to have PvP or at least it was something they were focused on a little. What they had was something like a mentor program. To save time I will just say how this would apply to this game. We can get gold player volunteers and have a server allotted for these practice missions. Trainees could sign up for a time and date to begin training with the gold players. If it's possible, disable weapons from the golds and give them "god mode". They are there to shadow and instruct. Gold criminals and enforcers would have to work together to make sure the trainees get the most help from weapon familiarization, tactics and driving. Ok, so what's in it for the trainers? Pretty much anything LO would deem fair, g1 credits, joker tickets, in game money, legendary weapons etc etc its pretty much up in the air. I know there are probably flaws in this idea and tbh this just came up right now in an inspired moment but if I could ask the community here to add to this idea I would really appreciate it.
