I believe the current headshot multiplier is 3.0, actually. Chest shots are probably 1.4-1.6 - but don't quote me on that one.

Well, like they say, all's well that ends well, right? :) It's good to see everyone's calming down at last. Now we can move on to more productive-- oh who am I kidding, we all know what happens when you hand blasters and lightsabers to Star Wars fans. Back to murder and mayhem, am I right?! :p

Blue doesn't nudge anymore, though, even in the public build? (This reminds me of a recent dueling experience with Threepwood, actually - he was firmly under the impression that I was nudging with a staff, and started throwing out insults because of it, despite my insistence that I couldn't be...

No security system is impenetrable. It's just a matter of how hard you have to try to breach it.

He was in the open beta, he's basing his expectations off of that - it's not unreasonable. That being said, there have been changes since then.

Oh, that's not the only thing that could have been done better, if you ask me... but we are where we are, I'm afraid. Not much left to do except see where things go now.

As far as I understand it, the reasoning behind the server's removal was that allowing the doxing to go unimpeded would be more harmful than the negative consequences of a false alarm. Right or wrong, there is some logic in it. There's only two groups of people that would have the right to...

One thing that should probably be pointed out is that you can still use the /connect command to join the server. If the investigation fails to provide satisfactory evidence of doxing or whatever the issue was, I imagine the server will be relisted. While I'm not going to say who did it without...

I think that particular issue will be solved in the upcoming patch, actually. That'd take care of one griefing tool.

Well, maybe there could be a more moderate solution than anarchy? :P Possibly. I'm still hoping that the thread can be salvaged, really.

Yeah, from what I've heard, AoD's admins are... overzealous, to put it mildly. If I were American, there's a decent chance that I'd either try to revive the official servers or stop playing altogether.

Like he said, someone asked if he was a member of tR. The rest of the post was essentially a very emphatic "no".

Okay, I think this has gone on long enough. When I woke up and checked the forums, I found one request to lock the thread and one post reported for flaming. Honestly, after reading through all this, I'm surprised people only reported that one post - were this the STO forums, I'm reasonably...

Here's a few ways in which I "play the class wrong": - According to Achilles, you need grenades to be a successful soldier. I sometimes max out my armor and ammo, and get CCT to move faster. If I use a grenade instead, it'll always be a frag grenade which I (often unsuccessfully) try to use to...

Well, this sounds like a lot of interesting stuff. Mind you, it'll probably never be implemented - it's a pretty sizable overhaul you have in mind, and just because a junior dev like me likes it doesn't mean the team will want to do it. :(

Eh, most of his builds can work in that function. Mandos are far from the most threatening gunners out there - I personally find it harder to rush down a BH/hero or an SBD than a Mandalorian.

Ah, but you linked it to battery power - this is not an accurate description. (Granted, low battery power will have an impact on an SBD's defenses, but this isn't related to what I'm talking about.)

Interesting stuff - there's one thing I should point out, though: If you (not necessarily on your own) can land several lightsaber hits on an SBD in quick succession, you'll deal a lot more damage than usual. Cortosis' damage resistance is briefly reduced after it takes a hit, so if you manage...

It wouldn't be the first time there's been a 1.4.4.#, though. It's better to just wait and see.

I don't think so, no - IIRC it basically tries to find the text you input (for instance, you could probably send me a message using "/tell lorn message") in a player's name. I don't remember what happens if the name is too vague (like "/tell d message" in a server containing "Dalo Lorn", "Lord...
