So about that Thunderdome...

Post by **TheBestDeception** » Tue Nov 07, 2006 4:12 pm

any chance of a log being made/kept on the battles fought there... would be cool to see winners and losers of these...records kept etc....

also...

anyone fought there yet?

I asked this same question last night, and only got silence. At least based upon those who were online last night, it seems the only attempt to fight in the TD was from Havok and I.

I too would like to hear if others have fought here.

ps - please keep the hate away from this thread, to prevent it from being locked.

aparently kromix wanted to try it and it gave him a log error.

I believe u have to use the cdkey you used to creat your char to compete .

same rules as deleting chars I believe.

and I think we were the only 2 so far

I think it would be more attention if people could watch since it is a big deal and all, would be like the gladiator games of NS4.

If you guys weren't so prone to cheat, we might have been able to do that.

I seem to remember something like this being done on another server a while back... not sure but i think they had an arena set up where spectators couldnt take hostile actions. Its been awhile... maybe ill check to see if its still around.

so let us cheat, if everyone is so keen on cheating then why not let them?

solves the problem right?

Yeah, I suppose I wasn't clear enough in my first post.

I'd like to actually keep this thread constructive.

Have a spectators section where everyone is auto paralyzed (skips immune) for the duration of the fight

or port them to the field dead so the fight takes place over their dead bodies!!

The problem isn't players casting spells and what not on the combatant, its the fact that the TD was made for 2 players, and spectators might just end up deleted by mistake...

i like that....loser and 1 random spectator gone forever. take that for liking the blood sports. >:)

For spectators: could always implement a level cap, somewhere low enough such that the spectators could decently make it to Ave, like level 5. This would seemingly solve the problem of them interferring terribly much, and would make them expendable.

How about making it a cut scene? Have the most recent fight recorded so that anybody interested can go watch it from a "Merchant" outside the thunderdome.

Good idea loki, cutscene would be sweet but i dunno how to rig any of that it may be overcomplicated.
