Weapon: Reciprocating Laser Cannon
Also, the guns are sold out too.

I started with creating 10 cons, and bought weapons from the rest of the money, looks like that was an optimal start.

How much you reckon they'd go for on the black market?

I've been watching the weapons available slowly go down to 0, so I'm going to add some more weapons to the shops. I don't believe that since we're all starting out at level 0 that some should have weapons while others do not have that option.

I just added 25 more of all sold out weapons. I hope that will allow people who haven't gotten them a chance to pick one up. I'm also hoping that no more will have to be added to the shop again once people start upgrading and buying new weapons.

I don't know if 125-ish is enough to stretch; I think the shop prior to reset had in the vicinity of 500 of each weapon, 100 each of the newer ones; but 1,000 or more of each of the 0-stat ones. The 0-stat ones need to be overstocked as they are the ones most likely to be taken by a new player who may play a few times and never play again, thus taking the weapon permanently out of circulation.

More can always be added later. Don't forget that we have a weapon cap and likely, since money is tight, old weapons will be sold.

8 0/0 weapon options
12 bots per player
212 players(as of now)


so that means if players select their weapons at random you'll need 318 of each.


course probably doesn't help that i may have let slip/ once or twice,that the null rays are the best value for money on consistent damage

They're like the old BB, I can't see the purpose to just constantly keep adding them to the market. There are other choices that aren't as good, but they're there. Try something new. Whenever i talk to Mkall/OS, maybe they will want to add more later.

just ramp down the cost of the others. they're all pretty much balanced damage for stats, just ramp down the price so the lowest recharge one costs the most.

I'm not changing anything of the weapons. They are set to specific stats and prices for a reason, I hope.

Looks like OS or someone added over 900 null-ray weapons.

not at all. just giving Crazyfists a crash course in HMW economics.


remember who's behind the weapon formula Bluevolt, and then go look at which weapon they are using.

EDIT: as fists seems to have missed the memo


I, as me, as in Tammuz came up with the weapons formula, i know what the damages are, and i know that at the time i did not consider energon as a balancing factor, so let cealus just make it up, since it was very easy to come by, now each player has a very small amount and has to be careful, it needs adjusting... I can tell you how.

I wasn't going to even worry about weapons until at least level 1. Hrmm...might have to re-think that.
