#

i loaded it it stays the same

#

where do i have to load it

#

i used flak on every barge i played in multiplayer so it works there too. No problem for tourney.

white apex
#

nonono

#

look at the price once it's in game

#

it's different from the library price

#

put it into a creative game and look at the price there

vivid ore
#

here the ship file, loaded with ammo: 14.528 Credits everywhere i load it or look.

white apex
#

brb i will grab a screenshot

vivid ore
#

tbh i suspect pebkac

white apex
#

definitely does exist

#

29,056 vs 28,736

vivid ore
white apex
#

it's literally just 2 flak

vivid ore
#

ahh i got it now

#

it is when you switch between blueprint and non blueprint but in build mode

white apex
#

yes

#

the build mode prices r correct, the blueprint mode is not

vivid ore
#

i almost never use building without blueprints so it was pebkac on my side.
not a problem for me that needs immediate fixing but yes a glitch.

snow seal
#

"the blueprint cost is incorrect"
"i compared the blueprint cost to the blueprint cost and they are the same"

white apex
#

w/ glitch i can only get ~1/2 the amount of armor

vivid ore
vivid ore
white apex
#

bp mode is wrong

#

add up all the resources stored in the gun and the cost of the gun

vivid ore
snow seal
#

no the actual cost is correct and the blueprint cost is wrong

vivid ore
#

the only cost that is different is in build mode without blueprints (lower)

snow seal
#

no the actual cost is the cost printed in build mode (not blueprint)

#

the price printed on the blueprint is the same as the price in ship library..both of which are wrong

vivid ore
snow seal
#

library cost: wrong
buy ship: wrong
blueprint cost: wrong

vivid ore
snow seal
#

air literally counted the price, factually it is the case

vivid ore
snow seal
#

like air counted the value of ammo in his ship

#

and added it to the cost of a flak

#

and then compared that to blueprint mode price

#

and found that there are two extra tiles of ammo in the price listed in blueprint mode

vivid ore
#

ok so the only correct cost is the build mode cost - all others wrong

snow seal
#

that's what we've been saying the entire time @-@

vivid ore
#

that means i get a ~2K refund for all my barges ๐Ÿค‘ when it is fixed

surreal pecan
#

Why are we talking about a flak bug in #1020489415476396043 guys?

vocal cloak
#

If you dont mind me asking Who do i go to and what is the requirement to host an official tournament

serene latch
#

ask walt

jagged flume
#

You ask a moderator to post your event detailings, often as well as a request for the specific tournament host role that allows you to post in tournament announcements. You can contact me for knowledge due to experience hosting

serene latch
#

^ more detailed explanation with additional info lol

sweet saffron
#

could an ion core building competition be considered a tournament?

jagged flume
#

Tournament implies live event and streaming that sounds awful

vocal cloak
sweet saffron
#

I'm working with <6 hours of sleep

gilded spindle
#

I dont think so personally

white apex
#

everyone can host an unofficial right?

#

what about official

#

talk to walt?

jagged flume
#

Yeah but don't expect the ships to get remotely close to the game if it's unofficial

tough prism
#

So we can host our own tournamants?

#

hmm

#

I have a cool idea

#

i'm gonna check my calendar and perhaps I could try this idea of mine

tough prism
#

I assume

#

and the product perfectly encapsulates me

#

most of the times

#

with quite a bit of chaos and scrambling

#

@jagged flume can I set up a small tournament for Sunday the 21st 2:00 EST? it's going to be a special new thing I will be trialing that I have yet to find a name for (and thus will currently be named "The Experimental Tournament")

I could put how the battles will work but as of this message, small kinks are being ironed out. i will give the rules and idea after I am satisfied with how it runs.

#

Also if i'm missing info, please ping me or something. i'm kinda bird brained so i'll miss incredibly obvious things occasionally

errant forge
#

Why there is so little signed up people

tough prism
#

also it falls on a bad date for me so i can't

stone zephyr
#

Im going to sign up but rn I dont have any good ships so I want to wait

white apex
#

i think i'm not going to be home that weekened

vivid ore
#

Can someone report the flak price calculation bug?

raven fern
#

This one?
#1020489415476396043 message

#

Already done then apparently

desert sky
#

"reminder" sounds like walt didin't fix a bug properly :>

snow seal
#

@safe marsh is it fixed yet?

vivid ore
#

yes this one - did not find it in bug reports tho

tough prism
#

so it's like a normal fight but you have 15 min to bulid a ship

sweet saffron
#

is it safe to assume they can't use modules/paste something in

tough prism
#

it's a fully custom ship you build on the fly, with no assistance, from the knowledge you have of the game

#

It's far from the OG idea I had but i can figure it out

#

hey Ion, is it possible for two players in Career to fight each other?

vivid ore
#

so a "speedbuilding" tournament basically

white apex
sweet saffron
sweet saffron
tough prism
sweet saffron
#

I could check if someone wants to help me

white apex
tough prism
#

the OG idea stemmed from there being a co-op match, 4 players scatter and gather resources they will then use to build their ships, and then fight each other with the ships they made from the harvested materials after a set amount of time

#

but you can't actually fight in Co-op

#

so that was a major bummer

#

Actually I'mma add that to the update suggestions

sweet saffron
#

have you tried:

tough prism
#

huh

#

I didn't know what it actually did tbh

desert sky
sweet saffron
#

actually I just remembered that I have no idea how that works, 1 second

tough prism
desert sky
#

very cool if we see it back :thumbline:

tough prism
#

where when why and how?

sweet saffron
#

ok, you can spawn ships (and probably anything else) but it doesn't seem like you can build freely

desert sky
#

was too old for me to be there but i can see anything archived soo

tough prism
#

huh, but they take soooooooooooo long to bulid ANYTHING

tough prism
desert sky
tough prism
#

Hmm

desert sky
#

would be great to see again :D

tough prism
#

So It's

15 Min Build time (1 extra to make sure your stuff is operational)
Maximum Cost Limit of 1.5 Mill
The terrain around can be utilized in combat

#

these are the differences I can think of between this and the video

desert sky
#

ยฏ_(ใƒ„)_/ยฏ
i'm not saying it's the same

tough prism
#

and by "terrain around", I mean you can throw people into the sun if you can

desert sky
tough prism
#

Oh yeah, and if there are long travel times, the speed of the game can be modified

#

so people can use jump locations, but they will run out of resources

#

perhaps if your ship can jump, it should be limited to a certain amount of times

desert sky
#

my mistake to not have read everything
just point out a similar idea which happen years ago

tough prism
# desert sky oh that acutally very differant

well that was the og idea, but we couldn't do it, or I could not find a solution to the issue that would not require some kind of annoying work to function. so we changed it to what i said it will be like now

safe marsh
jagged flume
#

I don't advise a building tournament they're boring to watch

tough prism
#

Ah, well it was an idea

jagged flume
#

Though I do love the idea of painting my ship to be toxic

tough prism
#

xd

#

tapeable (who I tested this against) went with the painting thing to be a bit toxic, he died very quickly after that

tough prism
jagged flume
#

The one I ran had like a 5 minute limit

#

I hope you begin to see the problem

tough prism
#

for 5 minutes, you didn't actually do much tbh

#

I think that's just because of my speed building bias tho

jagged flume
#

The point is that despite going 3x as fast as the time you're proposing it was still considered tiresome

white apex
#

copy paste galore

vocal cloak
#

You have to be good at color casting or tht 15 minute build off is going to be bad to watch

sharp bane
#

or if it's a for fun tournament it doesn't have to be streamed

#

speedbuilding tournaments sre pretty fun and don't require as much preparation (but do require practice...)

#

so I'm for it

errant forge
#

Meanwhile me building one ship for hours

How does tournament work?

I kinda want to spectate one

I'm probably not going to host a five person tournament more people should join or I'll just reschedule for next month

stone zephyr
#

although I doubt thatll change the verdict as 6 people isnt much more exciting

errant forge
desert sky
errant forge
#

Also not everyone can be online both weekends

jagged flume
#

What would you suggest as an alternative to get more time overall without spending 5+ hours on a single day

desert sky
#

just 1v1 and less sing up ๐Ÿคญ
or two match at once at least

errant forge
white apex
white apex
serene latch
#

i might sign up

#

idk yet need to check

sharp bane
#

I'll probably sign up

desert sky
#

i'll probably won't sing up

chilly barn
#

I can sign up and would like to, I just need a jousting missile orbiter

raven fern
#

I remember seeing an in game announcement for the November tournament. How come there isn't one for this upcoming tournament?

It would be a good way to attract player attention and encourage them to participate in PVP

wind ermine
#

i'm also planning to sign up as soon as i can verify my availability as well

surreal pecan
#

I would love to participate but I still haven't gotten Saris' answer on me being barred.

#

Is 205-215ms ping aok?

snow seal
#

nope it's in the document in #events

vivid ore
desert sky
#

so enough to make it in

#

just don't want to fight with skill issue

sharp bane
#

I still think ping isn't the full story in terms of what causes game-halting lag

#

you could probably have a somewhat decent game with 300+ ping provided it's consistent and device performance is good

white apex
#

it's only bad when the game actually slows down

#

if it's just ping it's less bad

desert sky
#

having sometimes 300 ping game without issue i do agree so much

vivid ore
#

oh i just realized tourney is on the 20th and not in two days ...

rough oracle
#

Yeah you have more than enough time to prepare lol

surreal pecan
#

Literally 10 ms above the maximum. Piece of shit.

jagged flume
#

I guess you should probably be fine Nick?

#

The issue is when as a single person you can bring the game to a crawl, as was occurring wuth Xsnow earlier today :/

vivid ore
surreal pecan
#

I don't know not a single match I've played was too laggy because of me.

#

I mean I've never caused actual slowdowns.

#

Only lagspikes whenever I take a screenshot.

#

I just won't take screenshots and that's all.

raven fern
vocal cloak

what is wrong with your internet

desert sky

ยฏ_(ใƒ„)_/ยฏ

but in that case iirc i have running on 4g and it snow outside
hence why .w.

hollow socket

#

you could allow a temporary sign up to the tournament to allow people to confirm later

surreal pecan
gilded spindle
#

How many people are prepared for the tourney as of yet

surreal pecan
#

Not me that's for sure.

#

I don't have a single ship I consider good enough to be shipped into a tourney as of now.

#

...Or at least anything that is good against most stuff.

#

At this point I think of using an alpha rail and putting a stop to it like that..... But nah, it's too stupid.

jagged flume
#

Nobody has submitted ships yet

surreal pecan
hollow socket
#

Hmmm

#

Everyone is waiting until the last second

raven fern
#

^

fast oracle
#

I think I'll submit one now

surreal pecan
errant forge
#

I havent built one yet gotojale

sharp bane
#

I don't have a ship I've chosen yet, I'll either pick existing or build a new one... actually, probably edit an existing one.

desert sky
#

i just wish i will see a spinner again

#

one of my favourite archetype

chilly barn
surreal pecan
#

What could be the most versatile ship in the game that doesn't involve TB?

#

...TB that I suck at using?

raven fern
#

Probably morbiter, also has one of the lowest skill cap so pretty easy to jump in and do well

serene latch
#

or wdym

naive lion
raven fern
surreal pecan
surreal pecan
#

But PD bodies it hard.

serene latch
#

not biased at all

desert sky
#

if people are against mo for being strong why not call a nerf thonkers

raven fern
serene latch
raven fern
serene latch
#

what?

raven fern
#

my argument

serene latch
#

factor of..?

raven fern
#

Whether or not a weapon needs rebalancing depends on several factors. An important one being viable counters to it that players can use to balance the playing field

serene latch
#

oh that's what you meant

#

yeah it's an important one, but that doesn't necessitate a nerf or lack thereof

#

although i would wholeheartedly support a nerf to its lifespan

surreal pecan
#

I think something else needs a nerf like its damage against non-armor tiles.

#

Or just reduced damage overall.

#

15K for something this expendable is insane.

hollow socket
#

Doesn't feel like 15000 damage though

surreal pecan
#

More like 8000-10000 because of the spread damage but it's still a lot.

hollow socket
#

With how often missile AI cracks under the pressure and misses, it's a good enough damage, you can also dodge missiles with speed

surreal pecan
#

But they can and most definitely will hit you in the most likely unprotected back, unless you're willing to take them for a 12 hour joyride to make them disintegrate, after which the enemy would have reloaded all the missiles anyways.

hollow socket
#

Missiles should be faster at moving

#

Their timed life is them reaching the full range after being fired, it makes them last less

snow seal
#

if they moved faster then pd would need to be buffed

#

and if pd were buffed it's just a nerf to rails

#

and flak

desert sky
#

and cannons ig

chilly barn
#

If the missiles were faster, they could have reduced health

surreal pecan
fast oracle
#

i think the best way to nerf morbiters is to buff a way to counter them that isn't ridiculous like pd walls

#

missiles are fine, morbiters are very strong

snow seal
#

nothing sandwich

surreal pecan
#

Another things that make missiles quite annoying is that they can fly over asteroids, only weapon to allow you to both cower behind an asteroid and do stuff.

#

I guess EMP counts too..?

vivid ore
#

Never seen a ship that uses Asteroids actively to its advantage.

surreal pecan
#

Yeah lol incorrect wording.

surreal pecan
vivid ore
desert sky
#

ah, okay

white apex

white apex
#

armor is literally just worse

#

unless ur fighting traps

stone zephyr
#

I have a dilemma. I dont know if I should sign up for this tournament or a different tournament at the same time

#

or if I should sign up for both and hope things dont overlap, and if they do then just play two games at once

snow seal
#

sign up for both, and because the cosmoteer tourney is swiss u can just forfiet 1 game if it happens to be overlapping

#

u are allowed to lose 2 times (assuming 16 players)

stone zephyr
#

oh true

#

good idea

#

or

#

play pokechess and cosmoteer at the same time

#

surely that will go well

snow seal
#

bring a ship that uses rts

#

then u can play both at the same time

stone zephyr
#

even better

surreal pecan
#

Split screen gaming..?

surreal pecan
# stone zephyr even better

Yeah you should absolutely record footage of you playing both in Cosmo tourney and the other thing. Will be the most hectic thing ever XD

stone zephyr
#

that would be funny

#

especially since pokechess has a 10 min timer for both sides

#

mega flex if I somehow manage to win both

surreal pecan
#

Indeed.

#

Could you imagine...

#

Is there any world record for playing two esports tournaments at the same time and emerging on top ON BOTH?

sweet saffron
#

now what do we do if they win the other one and lose in cosmoteer

stone zephyr
#

hmmmm

#

idk

#

I dont think Im gonna win either tbh

#

even if I put full attention into each one (on different days)

surreal pecan
#

For 2v2 tournaments overall, wouldn't it be the best to just outright ban using more than one rail orbiter at a time for now before a better solution could be implemented?

snow seal
#

walt already nerfed them T^T

vivid ore
#

Rail orbiter isn't the problem. Tractor beams are.

#

When rails where introduced in classic i often complained abeout them beeingn OP - but that was long ago, there are counters to rail now.

jagged flume
#

You clearly didn't watch the last tournament because in 2v2s rail orbiters are mostly unstoppable

vivid ore
raven fern
#

Nop, no need for Tb anyways.
If you face one you're leaving yourself exposed to the second resulting in an immediate and brutal punishment.
Railfan orbiters have the strongest synergy for 2v2

vivid ore
white apex
#

yes but now u have 2 players controlling them

#

the thing holding back railtraps is the absurd apm u need to dump into them, w/ 2 pilots u have that apm

vivid ore
white apex
#

i thought u were talking about 2v2

vivid ore
#

heavy amror head barge with non flak also fit in 750K so that may be worth a try.
Ofc the railfans then had to aim at the barges not facing them and that has worked before.

and then same ship battles ...

desert sky
surreal pecan
hollow socket
#

Rails will never be ul, being much heavier than armour and so counting as armour

surreal pecan
#

Or at least lightly protected areas.

hollow socket
#

Backstabbing

#

The good kind

surreal pecan
#

Only ships equally protected everywhere are spinners which aren't even that good.

vivid ore
#

Any bets if the "flak" update will be available pre tourney ?

raven fern
#

Don't know, but would it even be that useful for the tournament? Flak has a little better dmg and arc with the Release Candidate but I still can't find a reason to use it over anything else

surreal pecan
#

๐Ÿ˜”

fast oracle
vivid ore
raven fern
#

But why would I use it when PD still does a better job?
Morbiters are very meta

what ships

surreal pecan
#

Haga piloting bettah is a very good way to deal against an inherently broken archetype yes yes.

vivid ore
#

but why the talk about weapons TWO BARS OF THRUSTERS & ERS FTW

surreal pecan
#

Good luck beating 2 railorbis at once punk.

surreal pecan
jagged flume
white apex
surreal pecan
#

Yes but you didn't even know what ships I were talking about why answer before finding that fact out.....

#

*I was.

white apex
#

but it's not

vivid ore
#

agree railtraps can be very neat but the positioning in battle can also go horribly wrong - so it is about pilot skill

#

contrary to the speed up and never slow down tactic of other ship types

#

just hanging here and babbling because i dunno what to build for tourney ๐Ÿ™ƒ

topaz rune
raven fern
#

Just to clarify, that statement is about facing more than one.
How can you disagree when it's the main reason that 2v2 tournaments are postponed for now?

topaz rune
#

Because I think preventing multiple from flanking you is entirely possible, but it requires people to change how they're fielding ships. They aren't the fastest things in the world, and all it really takes to shut them down is good reverse thrusts and reasonable front/side defenses

raven fern
#

Until I see it happen I highly doubt that's the case. But by all means, someone prove me wrong
I'd be looking forward to a change in meta for 2v2

topaz rune
#

Next 2v2 tournament, I'll be sure at least one pair of rail orbiter killers shows up.

desert sky
#

that would be meta-pro who would need to do it ๐Ÿ˜“

serene latch
surreal pecan
white apex
#

no?

serene latch
surreal pecan
white apex
#

spinners r not the only unflankable archetypes

surreal pecan
white apex
#

avoiders, traps, fastish orbiter walls w/ good piloting

surreal pecan
#

Yeah good luck ramlocking 2 rail orbiters with your orbiter wall LUL

#

How are you gonna prevent the other one from ripping apart your backside?

#

500000 PD on the back?

#

Oh shoot that could actually work.

white apex
#

dodging rails w/ thin walls is harder than it was in classic but still doable

surreal pecan
# white apex piloting

Unless you are literally a frame-by-frame tas engine you can not avoid 2 other people from at least getting a good shot.

white apex
#

no?

surreal pecan
#

Prove it.

#

Play a 2v1 against Saris and nugg and at least show me a singular game where you don't get pinched a single time.

#

*Salephz and NUgg

#

With their funky orbos.

white apex
#

wait u can probably do it really easily if u do a teleporting nuke thing

#

ram the rail, spin it so ur facing the nuke, have the nuke jump and kamikaze

surreal pecan
#

Hmmmm

#

We need a proof though.

serene latch
#

i do happen to have an orbiter wall that could probably deal with rail orbiters in pairs

raven fern
#

You mean the one with PD at the back?

serene latch
#

yea

snow seal
#

but i think u got hit by more side shots than back shots

serene latch
snow seal
#

i noticed on the first fight i almost killed a module of urs

#

but the only parts destroyed were like, crew

serene latch
#

yea

snow seal
#

and u thought that the cr was dead so u powered everything off

#

anyhow not sure if pd helps that

desert sky
#

"pd won't solve skill issue"

snow seal
#

no- i mean the pd are facing the wrong way

desert sky
#

to be fair it had a double meaning

surreal pecan
#

But does one rail with TBs on really make that big of a difference lol?

snow seal
#

yes

oh no i agree that orbit walls are easy to pilot but could just be me yeah a lot comes into play when piloting orbiter walls; it's not micro intensive but it requires good macro

no, it's not.

alright, whatever

lets just build ships ... the more vareity the better

Yo @serene latch @jagged flume

Will you host dom tournament in 2023?

serene latch
#

maybe

stone zephyr
#

you mean another dom tournament?

surreal pecan
#

Yeah of course he does lol.

#

Dom tournament is sure interesting but I'm more of an Elim guy myself.

errant forge
#

Yeah i also know elim is most priority one here, so just asked if thats possble for this year

errant forge
# serene latch maybe

Btw we need to play some dom games, you are the one i was most afraid of before dom tournament, and im sure you could win this

In da first you was unlucky against hansel ( your cr was gone by emps )

Next, against polar you nearly won but disconnect stopped you

I can say you was the most unlucky player there ( with box ofc )

serene latch
#

i def could've won, but it's fine

#

i'd be up to play later tonight

#

(for me)

#

so like 3 hours from now?

errant forge
#

3 hours from now is 4am for me:P

serene latch
#

go sleep!

white apex
#

i probably can't attend this one D:

#

if i did attend i would use a more refined version of this

surreal pecan
#

Wait so the event is taking place on thrusday?

#

That's a nice change of pace, I won't have to take from one of my weekends.

#

Plus 10PM.

#

So at most I'll have to finish at...

#

What is approximate time for the tournament to last?

#

Like, 5 hours?

white apex
#

"it depends"

#

4-10 hrs probably

wind ermine
#

lol what

#

Event is Saturday

surreal pecan
#

WTF

white apex
#

probably way less now that there's less lag

surreal pecan
#

Hmm.

#

Also, what does ''20th/27th'' mean.

#

Will the tournament be stretched over 2 weekends or is it just that it will be hosted in either of these time frames?

raven fern
#

The tournament begins on the 20th, it will then be paused once it's gone past a certain hour to be resumed and finished on the 27th

surreal pecan
#

I see.

#

So yeah, stretched over 2 weekends.

wind ermine
#

First time doing this bracket style, so it's hard to say how long it'll take

#

So split into 2 days just to make sure we have enough time

surreal pecan
#

To me it says Thursday.

snow seal
#

go to #events and screenshot the message

#

then send it here

surreal pecan
#

Ahh sorry I am stupid. I forgot to specify the date and just searched ''8PM cet to Georgia time.'' Of course it told me the day it was right now.

#

๐Ÿ’€

surreal pecan
#

Timezones are a pain ๐Ÿ˜”

snow seal
#

where did you see CET?

surreal pecan
# snow seal where did you see CET?

I don't know lol a lot of people were signing up with cet and I got mislead into thinking the overall time everybody was signing up in was cet.

#

My bad.

#

*Myself mislead into thinking that.

snow seal
#

8pm CET is 11pm in georgia

#

did u change ur clock for daylight savings?

#

oh hmm summer wait..

surreal pecan
#

๐Ÿ‘

snow seal
#

oh i get it

#

they are using CET which is always UTC+1
but their clocks probably show CEST which is always UTC+2

#

but they probably said CET because it's more standardized

#

so 8pm CET is correct, and you were comparing CEST to georgia time

#

@sharp bane can ya confirm

sharp bane
#

idk I have no idea what georgia's timezone is but it's probably the same as poland's?

#

unless it's the same as ukraine

snow seal
sharp bane
#

there's no cyan there

#

unless you mean turquoise

snow seal
#

turquoise

sharp bane
#

oh I thought georgia was in the balkans tbh LMAO

sweet saffron
#

I finally understand why nick has Georgian text

sharp bane
#

but near turkey makes sense

snow seal
#

eno what is the time on your clock

sweet saffron
#

thought it was the state in the US

snow seal
#

is that time CET or CEST

sharp bane
#

21:11, I think it's CET

snow seal
#

hmmmm

#

idk then

sharp bane
#

wait CET and CEST are the two versions?

snow seal
#

the s stands for summer, and is when daylightsavings is active

sharp bane
#

I thought it was always CET and CET just moved 1 hour ahead in summer

snow seal
#

or inactive

#

idk

sharp bane
#

I thought GMT moved an hour ahead too

#

or I guess in britain that would be British Summer Time

#

in short timezones are confusing and I don't even know how my timezone is named

#

I don't think I'll be more helpful than wikipedia lmao

#

yeah so

#

google says cest and cet are the same rn

#

it returns as 21:14 for both

#

when googling 'cet' and 'cest'

#

I've always just googled 'x time in x timezone to cet' when I need to convert time

#

I don't even usually think about daylight savings time but maybe I should, most of the countries I compare just tend to move over at around the same time so I haven't had problems

The recent announcement is referring to you ladies and gentlemen #tournament-announcements message

sharp bane
#

yeah guess I'll send the ship today (tournament is tomorrow?)

#

sad I didn't actually have time to edit any ships or practice, but oh well.

jagged flume
#

I can play with you right now

desert sky
#

i feel like this tounrey will end bad

jagged flume
#

Why

desert sky
#

i could be wrong, we'ill see

sharp bane
#

I'll have to breakfast first but maybe after

jagged flume
#

Yeah the timing is unfortunately very off, but it should be one of the smoothest events

sharp bane
#

(two, technically ;) )

jagged flume
#

I mean if you cut an apple in half you don't have two apples

wind ermine
#

i'll send you a ship as soon as I decide on one possible

sharp bane
#

I suppose you don't, but if we're being pedantic we still have one tournament but two events

past fiber
sharp bane
#

like how world series have many events lesding up to finals

jagged flume
#

Bruh I had to try the restrictions at least once to find out how well they work

sharp bane
#

to me the restriction is a good reason to take part

past fiber
#

No, I don't mind, I just mentioned one of the reasons

jagged flume
#

I still feel bad about it being necessary is all :/

past fiber
#

Until we try, we will not know whether this decision was correct or not

sharp bane
#

insofar as I'm concerned, there is no one correct decision for tournaments. Variety is the name if the game here.

past fiber
#

Well, it also depends on what the purpose of the tournament is, to entertain the viewer, or to make it interesting for the participants, or some other purpose

desert sky
#

i mean is the november tourney had lag?
imo it was the best tourney of all modern

#

so maybe 1v1 is enough to not have lag

jagged flume
#

Well in a certain sense, it's to draw and retain players to cosmoteer to maintain a self perpetuating competitive community. So tuned a bit towards viewers, but of course tournament participants are incredibly important as well

white apex
#

couldn't join bc schedule said no D:

fast oracle
#

ouch i have to send the updated version

sleek blade
#

tempting to join but I ain't got no ship

sharp bane
#

should take 1 minute to build and a few hours to learn to use well (or just get comfy hotkeys and set it to autoram)

#

won't win every fight

#

far from it

#

but in pros: easy to make

desert hornet
#

another pro: the tourney will be quicker

sharp bane
#

actually I just got an idea for the tournament steeples fingers

#

I remembered a surprisingly effective ship combo from back in the day

#

alternatively I grab 4 of these and die over and over again, but in a funny and entertaining way

#

I love how threatening it looks for something that would die to one well-aimed LC projectile

sleek blade
#

I still got PTSD from this

gilded spindle

30 minutes for optimisation

chilly barn
#

Huh so can i like take a 20 minute bike ride in 30 mins

snow seal
#

u can take an 85 min bike ride as long as u can check discord in 30 mins

#

and if u find the tourney schedule u can further extend ur bike ride

chilly barn
#

Huh okay

snow seal
#

check in is just to make sure that ppl are all actualy there to play in the tourney and no waiting

tough prism

uhh, where do we check in tho?

Nice! I hope more people will try Cosmoteer because of it

fast oracle
#

funny nick with no ship

static ingot
#

how will the fights work

#

is it by using the game AI

#

or manual controlling?

jagged flume
#

You will be joining my game and manually piloting against your opponent

static ingot
#

can I put the AI on?

#

or is it required that I manually control

jagged flume
#

Uh, y'know no one has ever wanted their ship to be piloted by an AI before

static ingot
#

I'm a bit special

jagged flume
#

Congrats for being a new rule I suppose. Yeah if you want I can just give your ship to an AI, you don't have to even join the games that way

static ingot
#

I haven't gotten much practice with manually controlling since cosmoteer isn't my main game

jagged flume
#

@vivid ore you need to DM your ship(s) so that you can participate

static ingot
#

and I only got cosmoteer 2 months ago

rough oracle
#

Not sure what type of ship your using but

static ingot
#

yeah I will prolly just manually control mine

I wanna show you my ship in screenshare

but either way I don't expect to do well in the tourney, I am not used to building smaller ships

Everyone I play cosmoteer with uses the 1000x1000 grid mod

#

so my tourney ship is my 2nd to smallest ship I have ever built
