Server went from 'fun' to 'rank' anyway, dont see any reason to play zm anymore, my dream has been shattered, sadly.
It depends of the way you want to play it. I play both for fun and for the rank, some choose one or another but doesn't prevent you from having your own fun really.
Or focus on all the broken stuff in the server, then when everything is running smooth, worry about VIPs? Seriously, why are you all so hungry over this VIP thingy...
I agree that a ton of stuff is fixed and that the primary focus shouldn't be the VIP menu rework or even handing out the free VIP at the moment especially knowing its balance is off. I think VIPs were given too much from the get-go and turned it to be rather impossible for normal players to be as good as VIP. I can top the scoreboard with ease due to all its benefits.
In my opinion VIP should be removed totally from the server and discussion off. Get skills by playing not by getting gravity and hp and stuff like this. I dont wanna get vip and i didnt have the intention of getting it. Even i would be agree with removing /top15 from the server
There's a reason VIP is present on the servers. Not many people are interested in paying for the servers or donating without getting something back and that's the sad truth of it. Yeah, it might make it a little bit pay to win, but It is fine to give them advantages as long as it doesn't make it obnoxious for non-VIPs to play.
Also, just because someone has VIP doesn't mean he's not skilled, it might be true but that's not always the case.
I can barely see a VIP on server .. probably 1 or 2 only ... (And No, i'm not VIP yet)
Second of all, the VIP access was made to encourage people to boost server to get it more active so it's a temporarily thing.
Doubt it will be a temporary thing if the server stays. As said prior, little are the people that actually are interested in helping with no reward in return. There has to be an incentive for a good majority of the people to be willing to contribute..
And yeah, thankfully there are not many VIPs atm so it doesn't make it too hard for normal people to play, doesn't mean the VIP powers don't have to be toned down though.
VIP is shitting on the server , seriously I'd boost the server but won't want to get vip
I've been boosting quite a bit without getting the reward. It's ok to do so, you don't get it unless you ask for it.
Alright
In my eyes it's stupid. I wanted to buy it, after I've seen how many are going to apply for it, as otherwise the server would be OP with more than 2 VIP, in order to have fun, everyone must have it then. You see, Maki has VIP and in many cases he can easly make over 100 ammo faster than all of us, and he could be delaying the game easly and make many rage.
Why would you guys want VIP, if there aren't people buying it atm. I can understand, if you want it because many other arleady have it, but I don't see apoint getting more extras than others even though, it's a easy server and equal and it's easy to get kills and, there are many tricks you can use.
VIP is made for those, who spent money for the server, they do deserve to get it, but for free? No thanks. If you ain't able to boost it weekly, so you must not ask for VIP at all, or the ones that pay for it would feel fooled.
It has always been like that, VIP for those who spent money to get the server in a higher rank. If all of you apply to get VIP the server will just get empty as hell. We can be lucky and happy we got a higher rank than other Ambrosian server even though it's a new server. + What's really stupid is, that as long as the server is NOT full, getting VIP will just make the playersthat we hardly won, leave.
So please guys please, don't ask for it.
Well, I purposely don't delay the game because people already find it annoying enough to play against me lately
.
VIP is made for people that are considered "important", in a server that is new such as this one, regulars are needed (thus, considered as important) and it's not bad to give them a week of VIP or so just so they play more. I doubt anyone would feel like they've been wronged either, I'd imagine the free VIP to not last very long and be a one time kind of thing. Sort of a trial that can bring people to boost or help pay the servers just so they get it. There's really nothing wrong with giving a sample to people.
However, VIP should not be awarded currently due to the fact that it's not yet balanced and needs to have various changes done to it. Ren0k said he was bringing a new VIP menu though so we'll see where that goes.
Overall, I can understand where you guys come from about the VIP, it's true that it gives too much free things at a time, perhaps the armor should be removed or the AP at start removed itself for the time being until we get the new menu. As for the gravity, I haven't seen it have much use aside from combined with multi jump but that's very rarely. HP could be reduced but like with gravity, it's not that useful aside from swarm rounds or being last human.
