Devolve/Evolve

Its all fine except for 1 thing which some people are doing, when say a rant gets to lower than 50 hp and he pretty much knows hes gonna die, he devolves then evolves back into a tyrant with 1 bind, meaning full health and can fight straight away, i dont think this should be allowed. Wouldnt bother me if they ran away first then did it, but doing it in mid battle is just totally weak, his rant basicly has 800hp if he keeps doing that.

So point is, its unfair to let aliens do this when they should be dead, rather than them doing this trick turning around and having a better advantage over the humans chasing such alien.

Thoughts please?

we know about this, and it's fixed.
we are just waiting for bug to update the server.

Then why did someone in ACR say go complain on forum if you that concerned :/ Was a waste of time now wasnt it..

Because the more that people complain about it and the more trouble they make for it, the more likely someone will do something about it faster.

Ahhhhh Rabble Rabble Rabble!

which is why we went out and fixed the issue,

but due to lack of concern from our leading members *cough* bug *cough*
no action has been taken yet

...Actually the QVM isn't even close to done. It needs the achievement system and banking system before I put it on the server.

Well how about until this thing you say is finished, maybe add a temp rule about devolve/evolve? No Cheating Death? :p

i agree with not being allowed to have the devolve/evolve binded so that ppl can do it wherever and at an entirely higher advantage.

what i meant was that i got everything on the current qvm all redone, and i added devolve fix, but u still won't update it until u get more mods
which quite frankly I don't quite see eye to eye w' u on

Anytime i see someone that does this, I ask them to stop, and every time i see them do it afterward, i !kill
this was decided by general concensus in some other topic im too lazy to pull up.

The some "ACR" is me.
So i dont get it..should I !kill Devolve\Evolver's or just let them Devolve\Evolve?

you should decide for yourself how to deal with it. youre not gonna lose your admin over something thats still being dealt with. if you think devolve/revolve is bad, just do what blade does, until a concrete rule is made. its common sense.

btw weed, the phrase in your sig confuses me, what does it mean

Oh lol,it says עם ישראל חי.
עם-people
ישראל-Israel
חי-Alive,leavs.
This phrase's meaning is " israel stands strong" .
That after everything it has been through it remins alive after more then 2000 years of war and exile Israel is here.

i meant the thing with the cards i figured that other thing was in hebrew

Honestly i dont know..
I Asked from my friend to make me a sig with cards(my name in an anthor fourm is Ace) so he made this..

limiting devolve to alien base is stupid, its not a fix its a handicap. i had a chance to snipe h default on karith because the retards on human were too busy building us in at the front to pay attention to their own base, but when i got there it said i couldnt devolve outside of my base. so i go back and go goon but when me and bender get back to h default someone noticed us and we lost our opportunity. i got screwed over by this dumb feature later in the game as well.

anyways, i thought the concensus was to make it against the rules and just !kill abusers, not limit it to AROUND THE OM

[EDIT] btw why is the instant /kill gone?

mmmmk, noted,

next revision I'll include the latest devolve work
( it will have timer mode set do default if u insist )
and will get instant kill

nythin' else? its break i gotz tiem nao =D

It does not work very well with base only, maybe you could like standard evolving? 'too close to human base/building' when the get to a certain distance away from any enemy they can?

That might not fix it. I've noticed in some maps I couldn't evolve because humans were building downstairs and they buildwhored the whole map. Sometimes you could only evolve in alien base in the very very back of it.

this doesn't work at ALL, it's how we originally had it but people would still be able to abuse it, mist notably rants who ate fleeing. They flee far enough from the humans and then devolve/revolve

I say
devolve timer = 60 seconds.
No one should need to devolve that often.

Sounds better that way, having to go back to base to devolve makes it entirely useless. The only time you might use it at your base is if theirs an attack going on and om might get killed by then and you're screwed. Otherwise as memory said, having to go back and forth through the map to devolve and use it secretly to snipe makes it obvious to opponents to see what you are doing.
