...it's possible to destroy a round in some ways. By actions or by words...

"Perception is reality"

Axis_WLF · 27 Mar 2003, 19:23

I do not think creators are paying much attention to this round at all heh their more or less working on r10. This is the worst round in PA history but I dunno if the future of PA is dead tough call. I do not expect this round to last the full duration they planned in fact about 80% of this round is probably already completed.

If it were the worst round ever, people would be moaning for a reset, not for blocks to split. PA has people gripped by the figurative balls, and they're only proving it by moaning.

I don't think that it is the worst round ever. Basically, it has just started. Sooner or later teenwar will split and I am quite sure that there is still some action left (even for VoM).

So they wanted some quick cash from a ultra-short round, chase away alot more players and decrease the playerbase from r10

ace, real ace

So who think the playerbase of r10 will be half of what there is in r9!? And the short free test time of r10 wont last long enough to draw much needed players anyhow.

This question has been asked the last 2/3 rounds.. and the player base has stayed the same even when people said they "knew" it would decrease. Don't try and predict the future and make a complete ass of yourself like many others have done.

Uhm, who is the ass here!? You claim Planetarion's playerbase have been the same all the time!? You like mentaly challenged or got a condition that make you extreme dense/thick o something!?

JonnyBGood · 27 Mar 2003, 20:09

People have complained about every single round since round 2, and PA has been pronounced dead on at least a dozen occasions. To be honest I think if everyone quit the game it'd still go on, probably because killmark would sign his 5,000 bot planets back up! Also I hear the creators are planning a big advertising campaign for round 10 so I imagine between players who'll stay on, return (for a promised great round of planetarion) or sign up for the first time we might actually get a relatively varied player base.

Tnx for a sensible reply. Altrough I dont agree 100%.
What I wanted with this thread was some debate, and my first post was provocative with that purpose.

Ahh, I think you were a bit to quick to reply m8. Take a careful look at my post again. Did I say all the time? Clearly not m8, but the last 2/3 rounds it has been around the same 5/7-8 k so yes kindly go away thx.

Kal · 27 Mar 2003, 20:18

I am still having fun this round, and have done the whole round tbh. this may be becuase I don;t care to much abour roids, I like killing people's fleets and there are still many left to kill.

I am also enjoying the round form a community point of view, certainly in NoS we are still having fun, telling jokes and generally being sick and twisted people

I'm sure some of us do want more roids and want things to change, but I for one am really enjoying this round. And i'm sure its not just NoS that is having fun despite the apprent down tern in pa. I am sure that many alliances still have thriving communities.

On another note... the creators keep telling us the skills we currnetly have will give us no advantage over new players in R10.... so the question that needs ot be asked is perhaps they want to kill off the currnet community of hard core players as to attract players that will not be intimadated by the established alliances and all the so called 1337 players.

Some food for thought....

The IceQueen · 27 Mar 2003, 20:22

- I honnestly do not understand how some of you can think this round is over already-

Yes, VVOMM have been blasted out of contention - so far

No, they have not given up the fight - (waiting for the slams about vac modes for some VVOMM)

Yes we all wait with abated breath for WEET/NAR to do as so many power blocks have done in the past and thats turn on each other & start a new war

You do forget the little guys that are cruising through this round completely oblivious to the "EGO" war that is happening

Have you forgotten that before the round started you all thought that r9 was dead, that the player base would not amount to much, I recall a thread on this very board created for the speculation of how many players there would be, some stating no more than 2000 - a huge difference to the 5000 we actually got

You cannot come to the conclusion that this round will have any impact on r10 as the creators have stated on many occassions that it is going to be completely different to past PA. There will be the usual from "professional" players -'this is my last round' etc....but we all know they come back...

my 2cents

I would like to say on the behalf of the "little" guys, the casual/random players. There isnt any "cruising through the round". These guys get bashed so badly its quite unbelieveable.
Do you think they will hang around play under such conditions? Sigh

Scouse · 27 Mar 2003, 20:28

That can only be judged at the end of the round.

if vvomm won they'd do the same. u can argue of course about vvomm being smaller in size... but it would only delay it. Sore loosers quit because of bashing. It allways make me hungry for revenge the coming round tho... Many of u on vvomm side was the ones who where on winning side last round. U should handle a little payback round. We all know the winners of this round will get heat the next round... It is allways like that in pa.. fury payed for round 3 in round 4, nocex payed for round 4 in round 5, furgion payed for round 5 in round 6, fos/xeta(what was left) payed for round 6 in round 7, fury payed for round 7 in round 8 and now virus/titans/ldk(virus/olympians) pays for round 8 in round 9. Is the magic rule of pa.. U can't win to rounds in a row :P

Discuss

Please, please please please Zhukov, explain to me how you can call this the worst round ever when Round 3,4,5,6,7 ALL had longer slow periods than this one that occured later in the round.

How absolutely rediculous can you get. After less than one week of the round, you had already decided how good a round it is? Thats like watching 5 minuntes of a movie, and storming out of a theater talking about how the entire movie is trash. Maybe the first 5 minutes wasnt great, but for all you know the rest is a masterpiece.

Everyone who is anyone knows that things are changing soon and the round is going to change in ways that no one, including grand psychic Zhukov can predict. Anyone with a bit of sense in their head knows that at no point was Nar and Weet every planning on spending any significant portion of the round together, so the cries of the round being over were just plain silly. The round has just begun, no one is out of contention. Quit your whinning. Almost everyone in this game has been at some point bashed just as much or worse than Vom, in situations where the prospect for hope was much worse.

Not really. Considering Legion was on the winning side in round 2, 3, 4 and 5.

I see your point though, and your rule basically does apply now within PA, but not always.

And Titans/LDK arn't 'paying' for last round. They disbanded.

Could be argued that the various different Legion administrations made it politically more than one entity through the rounds. e.g. A Biggdogg run Legion is very different to the one run in r4, for example.

biggdogg came back round 5,(ramp,gren,TU and the command team did good then)and he werent that lucky in round 6.actually legion have never been so disorganised as in round 6 with bd.(hardly any attacks,late arby etc etc)
Legion did good under BDs command in r3.many WP returned when the political path was set infront of r5.

personally i think legion was run by talented officers,that got the best out of the members.

point is i dont think bd could have run legion better than it was allready run in r4.

ofc we miss them,we have a to small uni.
that shows in a way that 7 HCs can now allie and ruin the game.
round 5 we atleast had revolt that could do some dammage.now we allready have the rest of the uni and cant do ****e as they still are 70% of the uni!
so yes we need an bigger uni and we do miss players that have quit over this games stagnation and boring politics.

Legion was maybe on "the winning side" of r4, but apart from this they were just the "V" in VeX. (It should have been named veX, btw) That round was Xanadu's one ! And r3 went to Fury.

I didn't say 'winners'. I said winning side. Let's not get into a 'Who won what round' type of discussion please.

i can only agree here, there is allways a loser in every round.
eh, i am even happy that vvomm lost the war.. or can u imagine any scenario how they should splitt?
this would have been the most boring round ever.

and ffs this round isnt over yet. Peps even doesnt have newsy yet, except they have some hardcore scan planets

I dont quit cause i got bashed if u see my histroy u will see that i got bashed really every round

R5 ended with 7 Mill and 37 roids
R6 ended with 16 Mill and ~800 Roids
R7 ended with 25 Mil and ~ 600 Roids
R8 ended on rank 66 with Zeus

i was Rock till last Round and became a m000 now so im very well used to fight battles without hope but the thing is that in this round its so extreme weet/nar having no targets and VOMMV no chance that a lot of ppl are stopping to play

Fury doesnt exist anymore. And apart from a few flames, my post was largely substance oriented, so answer it or go away.

You dont pass up a single opportunity to insult my intelligence, but you refer to my posts as constant flames. Its rather funny.

You have showed a constant inability to even consider other points of view, yet you act like you are somehow objective.
