BETA UPDATES 2010

[minisaiyan]

one of the houses removes the effect of ascended blessing, another increases the chance of getting it by 10%. As of yet we arent sure if the removal of it only affects the person not in the house, or if it affects the person in the house aswell

[Juliette]

AoH: That is answered pretty quickly with a login to Beta, I'd say? Create an alliance, join the specific house, hit someone 10 times, and see if you got any blessing, and if they did.

Takes 5 days to be able to get the bonus. Also, these two houses affacting AB are not available to join yet

I should really check that out..

[Sarevok]

Is it true that with the next updates on main the Ascended Blessing will be gone?

In that case I really would hate it. People (those who spend cash and those who don't) did a lot of effort o come tho this point. It wouldnt be fair.

I would like to have an answer on that 2.

IMO, i like the idea. Imagine wanting to be an un-ascended race, and knowing that if you join a certain house, that you could not worry about ascended accounts getting their attack or defence doubled. And you would be able to utilise your techs even further.
However, i don't feel this would be necessary, if the changes i suggested in this topic
viewtopic.php?t=162732
were implemented. This would allow un-ascended accounts to be able to compete, and there wouldn't be a need to disable AB

If it would be disabled, then noone is going to ascend again. Those stats are easy to get, by choosing for more income.

Yet, my idea about the dockingstation for MS is cool.

EDIT:
scratch that
sorry, my mistake

1) Those not in that house whom battle people not in it, both stil get their blessings
2) Sure, the stats can be obtained by income, but you need more resources to do it. People don't want to risk resources, so bonus without resoucres is better then achieving the bonus with resources
3) They only loose the blessing. They don't loose the 47% bonus in each stat area. And they get 22% MORE income then goa'uld anyway.

RE your docking station.
1) People wont want to incapacitate their MS for 24 hours to repair more cheeply, they can just send it out on a planet search and do it normally.
2) If it can be destroyed, unless you can defend it, no one will let anyone else have one.
3) If its not tied to someones account, then the 1-2 merlins you can use, won't matter, since people have 5-6 days to kill it

I dont like the housesidea at all.

I had an idea for MS's. A dockingstation where you can reload/rebuild your MS at cheaper costs/alliancebank(perhaps/perhaps not funded by alliancebank) but it takes time to get it back (24-28 hours).

Choose for volleys/shields to buy back or fleet.

An interesting addition to this is that the Dockingstation should be destroyable. Defenses should be bought on the dockingstation by alliancebank.

Even maybe see the dockingstation as a planet that can be MPDSD'ed for only 1 or 2 days a week.

I got an idea... why not just farm for the naq to repair your MS? If you can't do that, you don't know how to play. Docking stations would be a waste of resources.

Admin should stop trying to add more bonuses...

...By now we all know that you are better then all the others, you always seem to shout: "you dont know how to play the game"...just stop it...my god.

Seriously... a docking station? Christ. It's bad enough when cowards send their MS away or jump to PPT when getting massed, but now you want a docking station so you can hide your MS and reduce repair costs? Even my newest alliance member farms enough naq to rebuild my MS numerous times each day.

Maybe if Admin stopped adding bonuses, he'd stop ruining the game?

Hmm I havent completely thougth it thru, but if more ppl use it, it should be possible to mass more MS at the time (massing the station), thats why you need the defs.

It must be that cheap that ppl are going to use it ...and yes I farm enough as well.

Your crazy right?
If it is treated like a planet, then the large alliances are gonna put so many defences on it, that no one can mass it, no matter what they do. They then can utilise theirs, and crush yours.
Not to mention what happens to the lone-wolves out there? Maybe we should FORCE them to join a alliance or quit yeah? Since they get no bonuses, and are always at a disadvantage.

You have a point, but I am not crazy, please talk for yourself. Still imagine something like the Deathstar
