omg, i never seen so mature and imatuere flaming about an IDEA. yea thats whats it is, an IDEA. if you dont like it say so. Dont say that ''omfg hate your guts for this idea you ****** **** **** *ucker!''
Just say why and how the idea is bad. He dint say is was gonna be in xta, or that you gotta lisent to him. He only said his IDEA.
Anyway, slowing down could not be that usefull anyway. Since all players are slowed down, it dosent do anything. The things that can be usefull is turning back time (for 1-2 minutes) or frezzing areas for 10-15 seconds(like zoombie sugested.) it would be sorta like a nuke... you gotta have antinuke, or your more dead then a fish on land. Other wise they can frezze most of your frontlinfe defences, drive upp whit 15-20 rocket lanchures and bomb the crap out of your stuff. Offcorse, if anything enters the area, it gets stopped itself, so you shot 2 rockets from each lanchures, they stack at the border, then time resumes and BAM! a break tru point. Could be usefull...

Some people are jerks. But just because SOME people are jerks doesn't mean the rest of us should suffer for it.Redfish wrote:I'm no great fan of the idea, even I think I'd prefer to annoy other players by using it while there is nothing to do and say: nana, y'all have to wait a bit, and when it is just over i'll do it again.
Now you're in on the scientific background of TA again - while we're at it, we should discuss why the nukes aren't bigger, why the Commander doesn't have enough armor to stand up in firefights, how Con-planes can hover mid-air and how the fusion plants work so damn well.Redfish wrote:What you're saying about time perception is true. For instance lowering the body temperature affects time perception. However this does not affect the real passage of time, and if I may remain by the TA background, they are robots, which means they don't have time perception. Or they have evolved to far that they actually have a consciousness that allows for time perception.
Point being, just because something doesn't make immediate sense is no reason to immediatly off the idea. Besides which, the Arm soldiers are cloned, not digitalized. And who's to say that the timeslow thing can't be used otherwise ? Again, I'll point to the Plasma Repulsor - it's not in the game, but it's there, and if people want, they can use it.
yeah i know the examples are from living beings.. and that there was something missing...
well, machines are also affected by ... er.. time not being the same for all of them.

its something to do with the speed the objects are traveling... also influentiated by gravity.. but im mostly ignorant into that apart from the fact of knowing about the experiments.
but its not in that direction that the slowdown is ment to be.
Its not a supertechonology feature, its just a perception altering ft.
I think this is really already implemented... just nobody has talked much about that. or is not used at user will.
e: Durandal, you actually agree with Zoombie

Agree with Mongus. It shouldn't be a button to slow down the game per se, but a feature that's connected to a building of some sorts. It can be used offensively, to slow down a defensive force, or to speed up your own, or to have your Peewees do cool Keanu Reeves-like moves. C'mon. You KNOW you've always wanted Peewees running up walls !
yay, Neo pewees^^Agree with Mongus. It shouldn't be a button to slow down the game per se, but a feature that's connected to a building of some sorts.

Speed bosst/loss could be fun. speeding up one of you contruktor units to make it build faster, or speed up a Goliath to drive like mad true enemy lines.
