Title: New Death Explosions - discussion
Post by: Negative on May 15, 2016, 03:21:54 PM
I've seen a lot of players complaining about death explosions v2.0 and 3.0, plus one person asked me to post it. So, here it is:

Think. Let's take DE v3.0 as example. You buy it, go shoot guys easily, remove a bit of their hp, get killed, BOOM. Easy revenge, K/D is not getting ruined, players annoyed.

What more, you can even farm kills with it, but you should be too mad to do it. And even 2.0 -  you can still revenge players with it.

So what do you think: should we leave it at it is, nerf it (less explosions, less damage) or remove them.

Vote in poll, feel free to comment.

Well that can be a reason to keep it,because it gives players the thirst of money which management has been trying to bring among.

I think it's great as it is
It costs alot and it's worth it if you get it and for those who die of the burst that it does, it's simply there fault
It's easily to get out of range of it (for me atleast) and it's a challenge
It's perfect how it is right now

But that already exists or was it removed?

That already exists. Donators are shown donator prices.

As for death explosion, it is an expensive thing to buy which makes the powerful explosion worth it. If you keep dying from it, you need to change your routine. If you want fair fights, we have the duel arena.

Post by: EnzoMortelli on May 15, 2016, 07:45:42 PM
Seeing that it's finally useful compared to the previous version, leave it as it is.
Easy revenge, K/D is not getting ruined, players annoyed.
That's exactly the intention of it. What else would a death explosion be used for if not for these.

Now that we are talking about the special shop,I've heard that camouflages don't hide blips anymore to give priority to the "hidden blip".First,we thought it's a bug but then I heard it was done on purpose.Is it true?

Nightmare did a good job for the server, and death explosion is one of the cool things happened to the server because normally if a player can't face 5 vs 1. he can just go buy DE and fight with them. Its not gonna be easy to buy DE 3.0 because its 14 Million and cuts down 150 000 when you explode every-time. so normally players buy DE 2.0 so even if a player has DE 2.0 if there is 5 enemies they can still kill him easily without dying from the explosion.

I can see the point of Death Explosion it gives more fun to the server. Imagine if 5 players from same gang standing in-front of Nammu to kill OR if a car full of gang chasing to kill you, there  will be no fun for that individual but now that person can go buy Death Explosion and fight with them so at least he will get 1 or 2 kills. so both having fun even the enemies and the one with DE. and you cant just explode without thinking or just explode to show off, because each and every explosion cost Money $$ . This will make players to go and earn money because money at least can do something enjoyable.
 
LW is right now going smoothly, nightmare made good race system and good ways to earn money but last 2 weeks Race prizes and lot of things went down (i don't know who's idea is that) then all the players left the server. This is the problem here as i see, LW admins and Management always comes with GOOD IDEAS but the thing is even what ever you do there will be players who gonna like your work and there will be a players who gonna hate your work. to be honest there are many younger kids plays (even below 15) so if you guys keep listening to each and every players opinion this server wont be good because kids will come up and say i don't like this remove it . so please don't listen to everyone's opinion i know Nightmare is a management and i know he is not dumb i am really admiring his work. As i said earlier each and everything LW staff do, there will be someone coming and telling to remove it. i have seen many forums and never seen this much suggestions / opinions from Regular players to effect the Game. 

I've seen a lot of players complaining about death explosions v2.0 and 3.0, plus one person asked me to post it. So, here it is:

Negative about your poll, to be honest nothing personal but this poll is really look stupid because first thing there is no poll Ending date second you're a regular player even you win the poll you cant remove anything here by yourself. Third you says somebody told you to post this, please don't listen to what others says you to do, if someone says you to go jump to the well are you gonna do that also ? or maybe that person who told you to post it here maybe that person doesn't have balls to post it by their self. Negative you said you have seen many players complaining how can you see many players complaining you don't even stay active for long time. i see this poll as a another bait for a useless argument or a useless forum war. Please Lock this poll before some useless arguments starts.

If people want it to be removed it will probably be lol. Anyways, to all those who said we should keep it:

Newbies. Kills a player by luck, gets exploded. Mostly they /q since fighting against such an overpowered things.

You yourself. Why people who use it have to DM someone? They will just shoot when on low hp and BOOM!

To Enzo and Spit: I'd understand if you talked against classic DE or 2.0 one. But, meh, against DE 3.0? Go snipe? OK. If he understand where you are he will just run close, shoot you, if not kill with guns, he will with DE.

More challenging? If you want a real challenge, add DE v4.0. Simply explosions in radius of 20m or so. Easy revenge? Yes. K/D not getting ruined? YES. Challenge? YES SUPER CHALLENGE.

The thing is not about the money. You can simply farm them with different accounts, buy it once and never log out, just keep game paused (be Mikael v2.0 or 3.0, depends what you buy). You will just simply annoy everyone and probably make them r/q.

As for myself, I'm not taking any side, I'm telling how it is. Yes, those are good stuff but meh. Compare even 2.0 and 3.0, and classic with 2.0, and think. I haven't seen any attractions to LW since these new changes (except Huracan leaving, which is the best what happened in 2016). Yeah I'm out, thanks for reading.

I think you can avoid being blown up by it if you really want to.

And if it takes 150k every time from the suicider, just kill him 10-20 times and see how long he is going to use it :D

When you are aware someone using it, you simply change your attacking style and tactics. Cmon samp isnt just sawn-uzi in circles.

Long story short i dont mind it and i dont mind if it gets removed
Title: Re: New Death Explosions - discussion
Post by: [V]Playa on May 16, 2016, 05:10:58 PM
yeah, you can snipe him from a long distance, or lower his HP go to a far place and shot him, his money will be wasted, and nobody will be killed.

there are plenty of ways to avoid the DE, you guys dont use your mind often.

Post by: EpicHunter on May 16, 2016, 05:12:24 PM
We are not supposed to run from someone while he's low hp because he has death explosion.
Title: Re: New Death Explosions - discussion
Post by: [JOKER]Zaibatsu on May 16, 2016, 05:35:11 PM
What are you supposed to do in this game at all? Beat your opponent without dying by his DE? Just adapt a new fighting style so you dont have to run from him then :)

Wether it's long distance, using corners, climbing, kite manouver or any other opportunity the game offers, is up to u personally.

Sometimes u just gotta improvise

Why not just add a badge next to the text above the player to indicate that they are armed with a death explosion. Perhaps have different color badges to indicate the caliber of said death explosion. At least this way there are no surprises. You can fight or flight with complete confidence of your fate.

EDIT: It doesn't even need to be a badge. Even just an ASCII symbol in a different color text.

Death explosions is the most fucked up thing in LW it used to be expansive before but now some of the races gives 4millions or 3. Even undercovers are able to afford the money to buy it. I mean imagine 3 or 4 players using DE near ammu if you kill one everyone around that area will be dead. That shit happens pretty much these days i hope it gets removed or make it more expansive

koria has a point...

admins changed the economy system because ppl had full banks and money was easy etc... but now its even worse lol, lwbot (used to host 250k races rarely) hosts 1M+ race in every 15min and u can store up to 30M in gbank...

its like all this economy stuff u planned to do (making ppl work for money etc), u made it exactly vice versa

Exactly.

Would there ever be a week when players wouldn't complain about certain features? Looking for an answer.
There's plenty of ways to avoid DE, for example you could stop running in circles with sawns and start using your head and try to find a new tactic. Sniper and camoufladge? If you mix those, you'll get rather efficient than bad solution.
Search for new ways to own the streets, besides duel arena is made for those who want to keep the game fair enough.

Increase DE price and cost per death, problem solved. Less suicide bombers, more fun playing the game. Fighting against DE is not a 'new fight style' it is just a lame shit to gain kills when you can't do shit against the player you're fighting. Getting rid of it would be best thing ever happened, I might play samp in LW again.

I still want to know this :(

From what i saw, races are currently giving rewards based on its lenght. Long races have high prizes and short races have low prizes. That system seems pretty fair, except that i would cut the prizes to half of what they currently are if not less.

That might have been done on purpose. There would be no point in paying that much money for something based on the same idea, in this case that option was taken from camoufladge feature and was given to 'hidden blip'. I haven't paid a visit to the server for a while so i'll try to check everything out. Btw, think Zaib said that certain feature (camoufladge) doesn't work?

Post by: Quickplay on May 21, 2016, 11:28:28 AM
I didn't get the chance to speak with the devs in the last couple of days but i am certain that either this is the cause of a bug or they intended to remove the camouflage but for some reason it didn't get removed completely.

Let's wait for their answer to know which of them is it.
someone ingame, can't remember who, told me that Nightmare removed the invisible blip even after buying the camo (probably with the further intention to remove it) but this is all to confirm.
Anyways we should indeed either totally remove it, or at least meanwhile warn players that it won't work

About the DE, i wouldn't mind too much... btw it's a good item against teamers who gangbang players 5v1 or more  ::)
