A possible HW mod?
isn’t it about time somone made a mod so you can spectate a game? I would want one so I could see a bunch of n00bs fight to see who more n00bish.
i’m pretty surprised that no one has done unless i’m more pathetic than I think (better damn well not be).
not a bad idea, not sure how hard it would be to modify the coding. Maybe you could make a special player slot that gives camera control and nothing else… it’d be cool to spectate and not be a nuisance, what would be really cool would be to channelsurf between, sure would make tourney easier to admin…
ME?!? HA! I have no idea how to mod so you would have to send me to computer camp or somthing
well with out a leet programmer to make a mod that wont sync online games you have to settle with spectating maps.
wich is a map designed the same as the original map but set up to support 3 and 4 players who will have no fleet just Motherships that start in same spot and blow up in a few moments after game starts.
talas spectating
dantes fate spectating
war of the ring II no carrier spectating
few others out there too
but only prob is only 2 people can spectat a 1v1 or 1 can watch a FFA lol like a FFA is fun to watch .
but mostly its for watching skilled 1v1 games.
i try to work on more spec maps as i find time.
yeah you could do a mod were 2 players MS explodes it;s simple though it would restrict unit cap.
any mod that changes an aspect of the game that comunicates with the server and game of the other players will cause syncs mate.
Well then you could do it on LAN only if thats the case.
Or just turn off unit capping.
yeah but no one really likes that it’s just so stupid how many ships people could get.
Not in a 1v1 on talas. If you have 5 people who want to spec, and you turn off unit caps, it won’t effect the game.
it will affect the playablility of the game.
as a swarm is limited to 80 fighters normaly and could go unlimited of each type instead of having to manage it properly.
trust me a swarm of over 100 fighters is literaly unstopable by anything except a wall of 50 or more vette well supported.
1 pass will kill any thing smaller then a destroyer. unit caps off will favor the swarmer.
that is why only foolish n00bs do that
Will somebody really get 100 billion fighters on talas? No.
1 billion no but 140-170 is realy possible with a rep kami defender bomber swarm as defs build super fast. dont forget lights heavie and multi gun vettes.
when u go all out nuts like that 70-80 fighters + 40-50 vettes alone can kill any thing smaller then a dessy in 1 pass. and will kill a field frigate in 3 passes. i know i beat zeke with a full out swarm agaist gravs/DFF and gravs died in 1 volley. DFF 3 passes any thing else 1 pass he never even got dessy or MDs out it was over before that and he only got my defs with scuttle.
you could get a s**t load on the galaxy maps.
lol ya if u go to bed while u have 1 mill of each fighter and vett type in build.

negative lol
I could do the same to you… just put a ‘-’ in front 
Or we could just zero it, permanently.
now, thats just cruel, lagsy needs his post count fix 
uhm if im correct its only 5-8 players that effect the unit cap during a match
1v1 2v2 or 1v1v1 doesnt effect unit cap
