Currently, you can open a supply pack (with an animation) roughly every 3/4 seconds:
15:32:46 - 02/03/2021 You opened a Box of Grenades and gained 100x HEG 15:32:49 - 02/03/2021 You opened a Box of Grenades and gained 100x HEG 15:32:53 - 02/03/2021 You opened a Box of Grenades and gained 100x HEG 15:32:57 - 02/03/2021 You opened a Box of Grenades and gained 100x HEG 15:33:04 - 02/03/2021 You opened a Box of Grenades and gained 100x HEG 15:33:08 - 02/03/2021 You opened a Box of Grenades and gained 100x HEG 15:33:11 - 02/03/2021 You opened a Box of Grenades and gained 100x HEG
My suggestion is to make an option, something similar to the news ticker one, that allows you to disable/enable these:
There's already the items icon thing so no need to make another one, which means it can be done quicker
This would help people who want to open a large quantity of supply packs - say people wanting to enter the lottery with vouchers, generally open multiple thousands... this would take them hours with the new animations.
With them enabled, it could work as it is currently, with them disabled it could go back to the old opening system where you just have the "Use another" and "Close" buttons to the side of the item image where you can click as fast as you want without having to wait for the animations.
You may or may not have noticed some FBI agents rummaging around different parts of the city, responding to a bomb threat. Oops!
While I didn't drop the bomb itself, I had full control over the target and timing - I've never cared for merits that much, so getting a ~25b discount is worth it to forgo the merits in my book.
First UPGRADED DB - Check
First DB on Chromatic - Check
First DB during a RW - Check
Picking the target and timing of Euphs bomb = 40b
Pissing off AiR = Priceless!
My motives for this were simple. I don't care for the merits - just the forum drama. That rumour in the ticker that HT were acquiring a bomb? That was me :D
Mostly, I was just curious about the effects of the new bomb. We will see the precise effects once it goes off!
I was, however, under the impression no one is able to drop or shuffle around TTs once a bomb is planted. bogie even said so! Alas, that doesn't appear to be the case (or it's just broken), as nearly every Tom Dick and Harry has shuffled their TT around majorly. Paranoid much??
Torn has been in a deadlock for many years now, ever since the last island war and the formation of C3. Lucrative arrangement for NS and M? Sure! Good for the health of the game? Not really!
The upper and mid echelons of the game are getting bored, Ched. Unless you count mug bot feddings as exciting, this is probably the most excitement Torn will see for a while.
For the sake of everyone, and your game, PLEASE fix territory warring so we can have more USEFUL DBs going off :D
Yeah.... a 1v1 until you get steamrolled on the first wall, at which point you realise you can't handle the heat and call in your buddies (AP and HAKA) from the hood alliance to back you up....
It seems a lot of players are betting on ranked wars in the respective wars Faction Discussion thread - hopefully something like this will help to declutter and provide a more 'official' area for these bets.
It would be entirely player-to-player - no money is generated or destroyed by the system i.e. can't be abused to print money.
So it would work in a similar way to how the RR tables do currently - you can either place your own bet with an amount you're comfortable with, or accept a bet that someone else has put up.
Winnings could either be available to withdraw through the new 'bookie' page, or through a cashiers check: "You have won $50,000,000 on your Chain Reaction vs JFK bet against ORAN! You can collect your winnings through XYZ."
Any bets that do not get accepted at the time the war starts, will be credited back to the bet poster, again either through the dedicated page or through a cashiers check.
