Show if a player has upgrades?

Postby Mipster » Sat Nov 19, 2011 11:09 pm

It seems to me that the easiest way of dealing with the storage upgrade problems, associated with only playing with upgrades on, would be to show whether a player has upgrades or not :P low lvl players can find games with ppl that dont have storage upgrades. it'd regulate itself i think, making ppl with upgrades play ppl with upgrades, and no upgrades with no upgrades :P

Mip, that would defeat the purpose of mixing everyone together by removing the button... :lol:

The point of the enable/disable was the force people without to play with people with upgrades, thus forcing them to buy upgrades if they want to compete... Adding a feature to filter people with upgrades out is... pointless? :P

I appreciate your efforts, but, at least for me, the problem is boosts, which this would do nothing about.

Please voice out your concerns and explain what principles you're talking about... Lopdo made a good game, why not let him reap the benefits, or at least make the game pay itself?

And why are there so many threads? I'm trying to keep track of what's going on but I have 15 different threads open, can everyone keep all this in a single thread??

I think the idea of showing if someone has upgrades is kinda stupid. Rookies would be waiting in the lobby forever just beacause they wouldnt want to join that game.

Personally I've found that it's not that hard to determine whether a player has upgrades or not before playing them. All you have to do is look at their level. I usually assume that lvl 20 and above already have both upgrades, and somewhere around 13 or so for the first upgrade. If a person is not playing a bonus race and is a high enough level to have one, assume they have one, if not both, upgrades.

Levels may vary by player by what they bought; I'm just throwing out some levels for reference.
