Well well well, more spring exp. pips

[LOrDo]

I was bored, and was thinking that spring should have far more experiance pips. Heck, when I reached the star level, I felt like I had barely begun to learn. There are so many tactics that simply cant be covered in 100 hours. I havent really though about the hours these pips should have, just the images. Its a start. Please note that these were pretty easy edits, dont expect anything spectacular.

The ultimate uber 1337 "I really need a life" gold crown

Nothing has to be certain about these yet, you dont even have to keep the names I gave. I just thought this would be a generous donation to the community. But to be honest, it would REALLY make my day if these were actually included in Spring.

Thanks for your time.

You know what would be REALLY cool? If your badge was somehow based off of how many air, land, sea units you built, so a guy who loves air untis would have a:



and a excelent admiral would have a:



or so.

EDIT: Oh and also i fogort to say: Those are freaking cool

[Zenka]

Zoombie, one of your pictures say: 'don't steal'.
The crows looks learlly a lot like the crown I once made for KoXTA ^.^

We want rank 6 and 7!

[Rayden]

Even better would be if silver and gold is coupled with won games ... so you can't enter into silver or gold ranks as long as you don't have a specific no. of games won

[Hellspawn]

Ranks for more then 100h would be nice :).

[Zoombie]

Well obviously those are examples. We'd make our own.

[Machiosabre]

a rank for les then an hour played would also be nice

[Zoombie]

It should be a little "Noob" signe

If it were a perfect world and I was the unholy overlord of all things gaming, I'd just use the forum emoticons as the rank images ^^

= less than 5 hours
= 5-10 hours
= 11-25 hours
= 26-50 hours
= 51-100 hours
= 101-500 hours
= 501-1000 hours
= 1000+ hours

Eh? Eh? Am I right or what?

Caydr nailed it on the head.

I wonder if Altaric can use these in Altamod, that would be teh win.

we need more levels between the and the

we need more levels between the and the

if we stick to the pattern:
5
10
25 (this is the only exeption)
50
100
200 (this would be very nice to have)
400 (only a few would have this)
800 (this is the highest thing you could reach in riality)
1600 (your sick)
3200 (not even WoW players would normally reach this)

[Targ Collective]

I'm surprised you'd limit yourself so. If we include time spent on these forums, 3200 hours is quite possible. Only Monday I enjoyed a three-hour stretch (playing Spring), which I'd love to do more often. Doing that stretch 1066.6r times would imply several years of dedicated Springin' it, but let's face it, the devteam have put that in already. And with the choice of mods and development of tactics I can see a few people making that number, if only a few - in the same way that only a few people are willing to spend years on chess.

At the end of the day though, why sweat it? These pips are for pimply testosterone-laden teenagers who instinctively seek symbols of rank to enhance their social status... not intellectuals like the Spring crowd

EDIT: I wonder how many 3200s there are out there. Cadyr and the Spring team would likely make it on testing alone, as would half the AI developers in a year or two. At least half.

Gah... I'm taking this too far again, aren't I?

[AF]

I'd say in excess of 5000 for me but not played online so it doesnt show....

Ai games dont affect rank either....

[jouninkomiko]

There are guys in my now **former** guild in WoW who have 160 days on one character, and maintain several others. That one character alone is over 3200 hours :/

... on a side note, it took me 14 months to hit 35 days of gametime. Boy am I glad THATS done!

I like. I would like shorter spaces though, so it actually feels like you making progress, instead of going 'FUCK THIS!!" after 200 hours into the 400 trying to get to the 800.

[Comp1337]

if i would combine Uberleet and Comp1337_se, i would be like an hour short of 400h.
Where has my life gone?

Have you ever played a RPG before?
And Spring isn't about razing your rank. And the big gaps forces respect for the players who manage to get it. (nowaday's 40% of all players are rank 5, and 70% of them plays as bad as the remaining 60%.)

And the 3200 hours was considred in the time Spring existed.
Nobody got 3200 hours in game on the moment. (Caydr is rank 4 or just rank 5). And it doesn't include devs, becouse I have no idea how many hours they went ingame, it must be a lot.
I guess I underestimated the power of WoW though, some people...

I have spent 464.083(recurring) hours ingame.... And I still suck =D
