Add central black hole with gravity to current BLS or new team BLS 5v5 mod.

#

This will create orbit s f rotation around the center and circular map. Ships could change orbits only..... I have seen implemetation in some other games. This could imtroduce new mods to deal with gravity.

no not orbital mechanics 😭

#

you have no idea how annoying that is

#

ever tried to rendezvous in ksp or sfs?

#

pain

well yeah, i love them

#

but its always a main focus for a reason

#

orbital mechanics is counter intuitive and hard to comprehend at times
adding it as a side mechanics just for funsies wont work great especially in a game where movement is a core mechanic (movement/translation with orbital mechanics is much more complicated and tedious)

Scientist just found out that black holes can re activate after turning off. Add that effect in some how

main vine
#

Only one has re opened?

#

Idk

vale gale
#

re opened???

main vine
#

Recently

vale gale
#

where in the heck did you see this

main vine
#

Lmao

#

Was in data I have no idea what it meant that's what I took away from it 😂

vale gale
main vine
#

Yeah that light finally reached us again or we however we detect them

vale gale
#

we saw one die??

#

surely this wouldve hit the news instantly

main vine
#

We saw previous history of it ig . Idk. How it works 😂

vale gale
#

holup its googlin time

main vine
#

Portals

#

Don't even remember half of it lmao

vale gale
#

just generally

main vine
#

Lmao so now I gotta find it

vale gale
#

go find it

#

you have intrigued a space nerd
big mistake

main vine
#

Ah its called being reborn my bad

#

They basically come back to life

vale gale
#

w a t

#

ohh

#

oh i see

main vine
#

Uh a reborn black hole? Dormant for millions of years then launches jets of stuff creating galaxies

vale gale
#

its not the black hole dying lmfao

#

yeah its the jets

main vine
#

Volcano in space

vale gale
#

yeah basically lol

main vine
#

Yeah but dormant dead bleh

#

Hades Star expands with black holes creating stuff using time warp NoTW shakyeyes shakyeyes shakyeyes

vale gale
#

le gasp

#

not wime tarp!

main vine
#

Idk how long its been since I haven't said wime tarp

#

But if its a station and its used to only speed up processes of black holes that's entirely different and not related

vale gale
#

mm fair

main vine
#

Not meaning black holes but time.. idk if its possible to speed them up to create galaxies or stars but

#

Destroy them probably

#

Imagine if a black hole appeared in your ys.. o no..

vale gale
#

well there goes all my planets

#

get robbed

main vine
#

Drs or ws would be better lmao.. speeds up the ws a little bit meaning you gotta get out sooner

I’ve suggested something similar here:

I definitely think there’s interest in having something so different in the game, not sure I’d add it to BLS though. With respect to mechanics, I would be worried the different style might add excessive loading to the servers; however, I see no reason why movement couldn’t be in slower steps (like WS) rather than the constant movement of BLS or YWS (if a difference like that would help).

this is like the 10th black hole gamemode suggestion lol

main vine
#

Yeah we gotta all come together on 1 idea.. also they adding QS so wouldn't be for a long long time they add another game mode id assume...

#

If at all?

#

I really like the idea of event stars a event scanner and black hole events just make sense.. they could appear on scanner and it takes you to a random solar system that's about to be devoured by a black hole and you gotta loot it defeat cerbs and not get eaten by the hole

#

Make it public event with as many players that wanna join.. MMO strat but also trolls

#

But ban solitdue, ban bond

I think the “arena” style short match really appeals to players generally. BLS is supposed to meet that interest, but it also feels as though it hasn’t worked for a lot of player who are interested in that style of match.

Black Hole is just a name.

It’s the ability to participate in an arena style match, that suits a variety of players’ gaming styles, that I think could finally fix BLS and end all our “slightly different” suggestions.

So, “what general match characteristics does it need?” is probably the question we should be asking.

I think the best place to put this arena-styled gameplay should be called Dark Blue Star, maybe? While regular Blue Star matches are free-for-alls, and Dark Blue Stars are team-based deathmatches. Perhaps it can have the same characteristics as the Blue Star? Same damage points, same health points, but a different star damage radius. I’m thinking maybe a more volatile star that has a more wider damage radius? The star could cover its entire sector, and maybe half of the surrounding sectors as well? Plus, a wider map, and maybe more time? For time, I think a 5-10 minute match will be sufficient enough, with a distributed reward system based on contributions and participation in the deathmatch.

A team deathmatch would be fun, but imo should be completely separate from BLS. It already doesn't have the player base for good matchmaking, it doesn't need to get worse.

Just change bls to that 😆
