Favorite aspect of HMW, the way it is now

Postby RobotInDisguise » Mon Feb 26, 2007 11:38 pm

First of all, thanks, Ryan, Glyph, and all the rest who're making this game even possible. It's not everywhere that we get a free online Transformers game that's this addicting.

I ask that everyone who replies to this talk only about either the past or the present.

For me, personally, I like going around and reading bios. Then there's the part where there's always something to beat and no config is perfect. Et vous? [And you guys?]

Faction statistics.
Do Autobots beat Decepticons overall, or do they yield?

That's why I'm less concerned with personal achievement. I'd rather have my 'bot win a battle and gain no XP at all then put him in a battle where he'd be a hindrance to his older comrades, though gaining a lot of XP.

And, second most interesting thing, the alt hunts. I'd just wish that all participants have their rewards, not only the champions.

Having fun is your reward. Of course I DID ask for feedback like this in the alt hunt thread. Thanks for finally speaking up. ;;)

But I DID said so in that tread, IIRC. Something about the alt hunt bonus points (equal to your score) that could be spent to buy uncommon or rare alts while changing alt.

I like the fact that most everybody in the forums are so helpful to new players. I tried a different game for the 72 hour meltdown and not a single person was willing to help me get started, not even the mods.
The game is so addictive too. Although I don't quite understand why it takes 20 minutes real time to process a mission, I've grown to not really care.
The info on rare toys and news is another bonus to this site.
Keep up the good work!! :CON:

I can kill a whole bunch Autobots.
Then they come back an hour later to be killed all over again.
Then they reformat and come back again so I get to kill them more but a different way.
Ad Infinitum.

I get to read Psychout read my mind. It gives me a focus for stroy writing (erks as well). I also get to opress sentient beings.

My favourite thing: My Ineptibots get to be killed by a whole bunch Decepticons.

Bios are one of my favorite things too. Also, some of the quotes are hilarious!

May Primus bless the Ineptibots so they never change.

Some of the Bio's on here rock.

My higher bots have finally accumulated enough xp that they don't suck. I didn't think that would ever happen.

My apologies then. I'm pissy over the fact that I asked for feedback and got it from a handful of people, but find plenty of others commenting and criticising on other forums.

Which makes the HMW community my most favouritest part of the game!

IIRC, only Me, Lucky and Elcor here did actually leave feedback.

I think the rest are too scared they may get 'ridiculed' on here if they say what they think, or simply arent capable of coming up with their own ideas. It would have been better to hear from those that hated the idea so we could try and work out why?
Sad, isnt it?
