it was a 100% strafe. which is technically possible with 3frp and 6strafe

EDIT; though you'd need a target with 0end and even then the chance of doing it is 0.000000001406%

That should make it easier for Dreadspawn to skip past em all once he reaches em!

seen an arena won in 7seconds before.

I went digging through Project B.A.R.T. and there were a number of 2 second victories.

I think though there were mini-cons involved.

10str + 4str minicon + 10robot ability= 19 strength -> auto-death kicks for enemies without armor

When and how are Mincons utilized? Are they purchased like weapons at a certain level?

They were won from the Quintesson missions, but unbalanced the game and were removed.

Translated: Once they were equipped and then the bearer con died, they were gone. However, the autobots used up all of their sides minicons much faster than the cons, and they were out of them weeks before us. When they were taken out of the game, we still had a lot of them and were beating the bots on regular basis.

mini cons were pesky lil buggers that were first introduced in 2007 that could b bought with energon that were equipped (1 per char) and boosted 1 tech spec and were destroyed once u were stasis locked

The imbalance I referred to was the effects having stats above 10 caused on the game engine, which were apparently quite severe. Robot mode abilities made i worse (see above post regarding 1-hit KO kicks). As a result, both features were removed.

Further translated: They were no fun and no good for the game, so they had to go.

They were great for the lower levels, though. 700+ XP as a level 0 rocked!

198% repairs = bad. fun, but bad.

Is that the "one more stat, and it would be "divided by zero"" bad?

Wed Oct 22, 2008 12:06 pm

no, it was 5 more stats and divide by zero bad. but dividing by less than one starts making things stupidly good in this game.

It boggles my mind that division is even involved. The only reason I can think of for it is to make everything as inscrutible as possible to anyone who isn't a math wiz.

Wed Oct 22, 2008 12:34 pm

well techincally dividing by less than one is the same as multiplying by more than one.

I'm really not exceptionally good at maths, i just know how to do proper statistical analysis, i know what i'm looking for and i have a fair number of harcore players providing me with the raw data.

it's really not that hard, it just takes time and dedication.

BEST. MISSION LOG. EVAR.

http://www.seibertron.com/heavymetalwar ... _id=208160

At 10:47, every one of the four other Maximals in the mission was down, while five of the six Decepticons were still active. Velocity went on to eliminate the entire Decepticon team by himself, earning 985 XP, my biggest haul yet.
