Novelty Round
id like to suggest running a round with the round four game stats loaded as an alternative to havoc, or on the speedgame server, i think it would be good fun to run an old school round with single race, single targetting, old tech tree, etc
if the old code no longer exists or if it wouldnt be possible to implement it then would it be possible to run a stripped out carnage version of the current code, simplified tech tree, disable co-ops, one race, single targetting, but keep all the good new features such as inbuilt bcalc, alliances etc.
with regard to gal setup - i think completely random gals, made up of 10 planets, 5 gals to a cluster, with travel advantages for cluster, parallel and alliance.
i know this needs a lot of discussion, but i think it could work and i think that a game like this could tempt people back. i havent played since r10, and i was tempted back, surely PA team have a list of email address of all the people who have signed up in the past, cant they all be e-mail shotted offering a free old school round for a month and a discounted sign up to a full round?
this game was awesome back when we had ~180,000 players and im sure we'd all welcome a few more active accounts into the game?
just a suggestion, id love to know what you all think.
Phnx [VsN]
