Nick, if it's not to much to ask would it be possible to make head size scale up with the larger heights? They look kind of.... Strange. But not on scaling down, thats awesome.
What's in Development - April 2012
I may as well put it here too, I have a question about the previously promised economy rebalancing.
I want to be a midget recon.
I want to be the shota.
I have an idea that'll bring a truck load of players to SK. A server in Asia. Anybody in Australia, New Zealand or Asia is pretty much screwed unless we'd get a server for us, as we're always on 1 bar connection, getting killed by whatever. About 20% of my school play the game, but that's going to go down if they see this :c
Yes they are amazing.
BUT BLEH, height changes screw (and by that I mean distort) the armor models. Dunno if change to -ve height for the "cute" factor or stay same for proper armor design. :V
ZOMG charge tweaks I want
I'm pretty sick of latency screwing charge. THIS scenario:
Owao boosts towards 2* with tempered calibur. Owao smacks 2* with pokeystik. Noob still unleases charge.
Owao charges nightblade. Owao releases charge on [insert T2 LD pro name]. Owao gets smacked mid release and unleashes slash instead.
WAI WAI It just isn't fair people can unleash THEIR charge while getting hit BUT I can't. :c
New missions? No expansion PL0X
More equipment balance. Biased listing here:
-Magnus line
-Plate line
-Something about new gear I heard
-SL gear should get some improvement... I heard Merc Demo sucked
-Vitasuit helm and Silvermail helm kthxbai
/waitforupdate /impatient
Can we be vanaduke size and fist fight him to death?
Or ride a snarbolax.
Just having a random thought here, but considering to have another Wolver line that also covers shadow damage besides the Snarby line but with ASI too. Just my idea there and because bomber and gunner sets have like 4 options to choose from. The Skolver always makes me think its some holy wolf priest mail kind of set, which is where I got the idea. Hopefully there will be a 5* recipe for RSS, and Winmillion. Maybe another several branches for the spur line. Hoping for more elemental armors that cover freeze and poison; same with shadow armors that cover shock and fire. More curse-resistant gear like that fourth wolver line I had in mind. Just random ideas.
But it's the hard truth wolver stands above bomber and gunner gear...
...BY A MILE.
EDIT: (proper post, I was in a rush just now)
@Ayelzr O. M. G. You want more wolver. [exaggeration]WHY WHY WHY [/exaggeration]
Seriously. No, not THAT "Seerusly", but come on. Wolver gear is good enough...
They cover all 3 defenses. Bomber gear doesn't. Bring in gunslinger gear?
OK, then I'll say: Now the only gunslinger set worth getting would have to be shadowsun. ASI does not help MUCH, but yes it does help. As with "guns should put more lasers into enemies" instead of "one shot with slow laser", but bleh... Damage Vhigh against everything. Add to that the only few guns that benefit from ASI ( Magnus? The pulsars and catalyzers? Alchemers? The rest not so much :V), Vog outclasses it for ASI effectiveness (isn't ASI Vhigh DAs kewl?).
In any case. Shadow wolver. Like what? Another SL gear? Or is that supposed to be crafted from recipe, in which it makes snarby not as worth getting? (ASI barb on fiends VS dmg inc barb on fiends :p) I can agree on the spur and RSS. But the current wolver lines are just... powerful enough. IF you wanted another wolver, then bomber gear needs piercing/shadow and gunners should get elemental/piercing damage inc gear. It's only fair, no?
I'm going on a personal challenge to NEVER use wolver gear, ever!
Not even as a costume, but it did scare my partners when I put it on once. They started screaming,"The world is ending, this is a sign! Take it off!!!" *bursts into flames*
How about Wolver gear given a small stun weakness? It'd make Cobalt slightly useful again.
@Llan- Wow, that's...like some sort of quick-time minigame. Or they could make it like Punch-Out! (JK!) I'm naming my pet Snarbolax, Snarbiscuit...
@Ayelzr- Dear lord no, no more Wolver gear. It's already powerful enough. You should try doing an Arcade Clockworks run with two partners and 3* gear. BREAKER gear so you have a weakness to look forward to. I agree with the Winmillion though...and bring back the first lunge, okay? It's not really our fault people misjudge and lunge into spike pits. That was the drawback, and the advantage of the weapon.
@Owaoforum- You know what would be the best ever? A new type of damage! Normal, then Piercing. Now how bout dem Crush type? It'd make Heavy Mail MUCH more useful.
I like the idea of an east asian server, because a few Knightmare players are Japanese.
This is probably the only psuedo-F2P MMO that I've played aside from runescape that has such a western feel. I think it would attract a pretty big audience. I mean, One Piece is popular over there right? That stuff practically draws in reverse weaboos.
can gunslinger hats finally get new textures?
I want to sign all what fahzor said so far. I think that is the problem we have here. Spiral Knight is a game with great potential. As i first played it i thought it was like a Zelda MMO but for now it does have to little of a story for that honor. With the new mission-System there are like two or three good missions. The one i like best was the mission with that trojan knight. I mention this because changes should happen, but before the energy system can be changed, there have to be more content: More enemy creatures, more gremlin background and story-Missions, traps and so on.
Cause this cosmetically changes are interesting for only a few players...
I wonder if Barbarous Thorn Shield should have dual Shadow and Piercing defense, that would complement the Snarby set but now I think it would be condemning it. I think.
i cant wait to see those "enhanced functionalities"
and the other stuff sounds great too!
I don't know if there will be more Cursing weapons, maybe even Sleep weapons. o:
Sleep is in an... Odd situation at the moment. Remove the healing and it's an overpowered freeze, keep it in and it's next to useless except to distract fully healed enemies.
Oh hey, a tall NPC in the Arcade.
Sneaky.
edit: wow, i am totally adding target="newWindow" to every link from now on. this should be default >:O
edit2:
i would lol so hard if it this was one of the enhanced functionalities: Iron Slug now causes Sleep!
@Gingermace
Sleep is kinda viable if you throw a poison vial immediately followed by a sleep vial to stop the healing. :P
But yeah, I wouldn't want a Sleep inflicting weapon unless the Sleep status is revamped.
@Seiran
There's quite a few tall NPCs actually, Barrus and all the horse-helmet guardians are tall.
(And I just hold control when clicking on links by habit so they open in a new tab :V)
I have unsettled business against those damn devilites and gremlin twackers.
I hope there are newer piercing guns, shadow swords and bombs. I personally prefer the Callahan but I think it has the same trait as the Blitz Needle: both guns require you to stand still to fire. I wonder too if there is gonna be a piercing gun that you can get with Snarby's fangs because I keep thinking to myself that Snarby's teeth trade for gear oriented towards piercing. It just makes sense from how I see it, and I hope for it to be a shotgun-type of weapon. With high piercing damage and serious knockback, 2 rounds and having to stand still like the others but I think that's a good balance for a shotgun-piercing gun that would give gunners a way to keep enemies at a distance. With the five-star form charge attack shooting either a lunging snarby hologram or make the knight spin around and make a Snarby hologram appear as if to lash its tail to hit close-quarter enemies and then shoot a lunging snarby hologram. Its almost like the BTB charge but focused on knockback than damage. Just a thoughtful idea there about a piercing gun that you can get from Snarby's fangs.
I think there should be more shadow swords other than Faust and Acheron, one that hopefully deals Sleep because I keep thinking of Darkrai (Pokemon), or a Shadow-damage Cutter/Spur for more alchemy lines. Randomly speaking but not all excited besides the fact of having more Shadow sword options to choose from for new players.
Shadow bombs because there is very few of those. Graviton and Dark Retribution are the only shadow bombs in the game, they aren't particularly good for any bombing run because one is situational (Graviton) and the other doesn't quite bode well with the nerf (D. Retribution). So a shadow bomb, maybe a Shadow-damaging blast bomb would work in my opinion. Hopefully a pure Elemental bomb made for damage in case AoA or VT are not too ideal. Not that I think VT or AoA are bad but sometimes blasting things with high damage output is better IMO.
Just random ideas. I do (very much) hope for a new piercing gun, hopefully a shotgun-type gun that pierces. I mean c'mon at least something for gunners to handle themselves in LD and in tight situations like those. Also because shotguns are awesome. And 5* RSS/Winmillion.
They don't heal THAT fast when asleep. I do more damage in one hit than it usually takes in 5 "ticks" of healing.
I posted it to see the response I'd get. Better than I expected really. Basically, here's the idea:
OOO place a server somewhere in Asia. This means =
People in Malaysia, Australia, Singapore, Japan and China would be able to play SK without lag. This would bring in more people, which in turn...brings more people in.
yay.
SLKDJF Height and eyes oh god yes! I want the almond shaped eyes, they're so pretty. Basically, take my money!
I'll reserve judgement on the item balancing until we see what it is. It's good that it's being worked on though.
After playing around with Spiral Spy, I can assure you that armour being warped and stretched will not be an issue, at least with the armours i looked at.
You actually want to use target="_blank", you can read about why here.
(Like Katmint, I too always click on links on forums while holding down CTRL, so it opens in a new tab regardless.)
Aishiteru....I love you...Eyes...height...
I don't know about you but I've already adapted to my screen showing me walking inside an IMF rocket.
And yes I live in Asia.
Another rebalancing pass! Perhaps I should wait to upgrade my MBB to Nitro, if BAB gets big or angry enough to justify using it. Hopefully you also will be changing a certain... "Weighty Disassembler"... to a certain damage that is "elemental" in combat.
Also, Mad Bomber looking eyes will be much appreciated. Either way, I can't wait to see what you're coming out with.
I hope they improve the Biohazard, and hopefully make that Snarby shotgun I mentioned earlier.
I think the Ionized Salt Bomb should be a Shadow-dmg bomb, I mean all the mats needed to make it seem like something used to make a Shadow-based crafting. Hopefully they make a Crystal bomb made of Dark Matter if that doesn't work.
Other than that, I do wish Bio gets useful enough to use in LD. I just got it.
An upgrade option for the Scarlet shield would be nice.
Or, maybe even more new shields with passive effects...
NICK!
Fix finally damn Faust and Gran Faust ASI bar in description! Why your ignore it!?
A prank.
Very cruel for those who don't know it.
"Why did my Faust lie to me!!!"
Is their a new weapon and new locations in the haven?
Weapon balances and buffs are obviously going to be descriptions for things that lack descriptions. *snickersnort.*
Also, Nick; will players who got past the Crash Site/Rescue Camp already get to see this 'New Villain'? Perhaps make those playable missions or something, for those who want to see?
As for height/eye changes, I hope it's not going to be like the colour changer in terms of price. I'm glad I was happy with my colour, because 50k is just... no. I plan on changing my height and eyes, to -1 and 'Jolly' respectively. I'm just praying it won't be a money pit.
In the west, heroes don't look at explosions.
Here, heroes CHARGE ATTACKS AND RUN INTO THE EXPLOSIONS TO MAKE MORE LAGXPLOSIONS
I hope testing goes up soon, my testing privileges expire in a week.
WAH! You're making me want to make a new knight...... ( and I will,of course.)
I'm hoping everyone playing will get a voucher of some sort to use the service once.
So, uh, what are the eyes going to do to my vog cap xD? lol
It won't do anything to the Vog Cub cap.
No Asian Servers.
/disappointed
/foreverlagging
I'd like there to be an Asian server. Not because I live in Asia, but because I think it would help those out in that neck of the woods. We also should have an Australia/Oceania server for people over there.
i dont think, that this content will stop me from rading fsc day after day (it wil be year soon). so release some content for us, fsc grinders, new players dont need new content!

I'm totally looking forward to all of these. :D
Now I will be tormented by the question: decrease height for cuteness factor, or increase height to make the details on armor more noticeable? D:
