Some of the prizes seem weird, take the GW winter meltdown, a buccaneer for first, a LASER for second and a HCR for third?
Shouldn't it be Laser, HCR, Buccaneer? As it stands, I would rather get second than first. |

The Paranoid Tourist Posted Oct 28, 2009, 1:06 am |
Yeah, that happens. Maybe the cash is meant to offset that. | ||||
Joel Autobaun Posted Oct 28, 2009, 1:12 am |
IT happens too often. Is it that hard to make it so say a Laser becomes 1st prize if is something like a buccy? Liek they just swap.
Kinda ridiculous have to try to "lose" to get the laser. |

It can happen in any of the leagues.
For first place I won a "pike" Second place got a "Mortar" Just wait, some day you'll see an RGM show up as a 3rd place prize. |

Joel Autobaun Posted Oct 28, 2009, 2:38 am |
I know it happens in all of them. If it's a league with sponsorsit's usually worth winning regardless, but I have specifically got 2nd place for the mounted mortar a couple times. | ||||
Iron Wraith Posted Nov 17, 2009, 11:47 pm |
I would suggest it actually takes more skill to deliberately gain second place, than to just use superior gangers to grab first.
Maybe thats the challenge. Oh and its FREE stuff. Mouth horse look gift. |

*sam* Posted Nov 18, 2009, 11:41 am |
yeah, I'll do this for next season and manually look at any leagues that have not yet started this seson. |

Actually the main issue here might be the 'desirability' values that I have assigned to the hardware, rather than a coding problem as such.
Here's the current 'desirability' values. I'm happy to change any of these (I can see the laser looks very low, for example, and the rocket racks too high): Weapons Heavy Laser 190000 Radar Guided Missile 150000 Heavy Rocket Rack 90000 Medium Rocket Rack 70000 Mounted Mortar 65000 Tank Gun 60000 Rocket Booster 60000 Light Rocket Rack 50000 Mini Rocket Pod 50000 Heavy Gatling Gun 40000 Laser 30000 Heavy Car Rifle 15000 Flechette Gun 5000 Nitro Booster 5000 Anti Tank Gun 5000 Chassis Fire Engine 240000 Ambulance 225000 McFly 220000 Roadrunner 220000 Squadcar 215000 Turin 210000 Cougar 210000 DeVille 205000 Fiftyseven 200000 McKenzie 200000 Hotrod 160000 Royal Eaton 140000 Stormer 125000 Pike 100000 Buzzer 80000 Osprey 75000 Hearse 50000 Flail 50000 Bus 40000 Moray 40000 Bullet 5000 Semi Tractor 5000 Buccaneer 5000 |

I'm surprised ATG is in there but Car Cannon isn't, especially since I picked up an ATG at Jake's the other day (without hero points, I might add). | ||||
FireFly Posted Nov 18, 2009, 12:55 pm |
In the chassis, the osprey is way to low, that's for sure, and as he said, replace the ATG with car cannons, also, I would call the RGM more desirable than the heavy lasers, just for the rarity of the thing.
The HCR and HGG should also change places |
||||
*sam* Posted Nov 18, 2009, 1:42 pm |
Osprey to 150000 ?
HCR to 45000 ? What value should the Laser be at? |
||||
FireFly Posted Nov 18, 2009, 1:47 pm |
I'd say, osprey 130000, under the eaton, over the stormer.
Laser, I would say 60000, in the tank gun/rocket booster group |

Ok, thnx | ||||

yep id go with goats pricing to be honest...now get some RGM's and squad cars in them there events Mr. Sam | ||||
*sam* Posted Nov 18, 2009, 3:16 pm |
Thanks goat... any chance you could suggest the acutal 'desirability numbers'? These range from about 5000 to above 200000, as you can see. | ||||
*goat starer* Posted Nov 18, 2009, 5:18 pm |
you dont want much do you! lol here is a go.. based on what i would want and how much (and ignoring my much publiscised hatred of lasers) Weapons Radar Guided Missile 220000 Heavy Laser 200000 Mounted Mortar 180000 Laser 170000 Tank Gun 100000 Heavy Car Rifle 80000 Car Cannon 70000 Rocket Booster 45000 Heavy Rocket Rack 30000 Flechette Gun 20000 Medium Rocket Rack 20000 Light Rocket Rack 15000 Mini Rocket Pod 10000 Heavy Gatling Gun 5000 Anti Tank Gun 5000 Nitro Booster 5000 Chassis Squadcar 220000 Ambulance 200000 Fire Engine 200000 McFly 180000 Roadrunner 170000 Cougar 160000 DeVille 160000 Fiftyseven 150000 McKenzie 150000 Turin 130000 Osprey 100000 Royal Eaton 70000 Hotrod 70000 Buzzer 60000 Flail 50000 Stormer 30000 Pike 30000 Buccaneer 20000 Moray 20000 Hearse 10000 Bullet 10000 Bus 5000 Semi Tractor 5000 |

*Longo* Posted Nov 18, 2009, 10:35 pm |
-Id make Hlaser and RGM the same. -Under chassis, eliminate the Semi Tractor. It has no use at all until trailers are added. -Drop the hearse to 5000. -Fire Engine and Squadcar should change places. Squadcars armor isnt that strong. Its the rarest car at the moment, but surely not the best sedan in the game. Sam -Add some Engines? 7LV12 and 5LV12 at 220000 5LV8 at 150000 Other than that, great job Goat. |

*Wolfsbane* Posted Nov 18, 2009, 11:05 pm |
Don't eliminate the semi tractor. How else will I get one to scout with? | ||||
Joel Autobaun Posted Nov 18, 2009, 11:21 pm |
I would get rid of the Semi-Tractor until trailers are in.
I would get rid of ATG/HGG/moray/hearse and bullet because these chassis have become merely uncommon, but often people with only 3 weeks under their belt have these(or better). If not, make them more rare in wild and at shops. |
||||
*goat starer* Posted Nov 19, 2009, 12:07 am |
think longos suggestions are right.
dont agree with joel.. whilst those are only uncommon they are still prized in ss and i cant see them being prizes for anything but small leagues in ss. Wolf.. semi tractor can be purchased in GW and BL and other towns quite often in the shop |

Hmm. Ah well, I needed to move to BL at some point anyway.
