Title: Adv Goon to Tyrant
Post by: Paradox on May 27, 2006, 09:17:49 pm
I am not sure if this is intentional, but it can get annoying. I can have 4 evo points, and evolve to a goon. I get one more point, but the game claims i need 2 to get tyrant, even though a tyrant only costs 5 points.


Also, is there any way to adjust the maximum credits a user can have on a server. 9 and 2000 are a bit annoying and small.

not really a bug or anything, that how the game works, if u evolve to adv goon and u try with 1 point, doesn't work, try saving some points earlier so u can evolve without w8ing another 2 minutes

I had something similar with an advanced marauder, evolving to a tyrant needed 3 more points.

I think it's intentional, when you want to change race it cost you 1 more point or something like that, it's up to you to chose what you prefer, wasting a point or not evolving.

To the 2000 credits issue, you can buy battlesuit and lucyifer cannon, get another 1000 credits (you should have 2000) the sell the battle suit and lucifer cannon to get 300 credits. Im pretty sure that thats the most credits you can get.

I think it's a bug and a rip off, and needs to be fixed.

The Adv classes always cost one more point than the regular classes, but that point is consumed in the evolution and there's no way to get it back. Consider it as evolving to dragoon first and paying one evo poit to get the Adv Dragoon.

Lucifer + BSuit = 1000 credits. Add a grenade and you can probably get to 3200 credits.

No, he's saying that 4 Points=Goon from Dretch, 5 points=Ty from Dretch, but 2 Points=Ty from Goon.

No. It costs 3 points to go from Dretch to Dragoon, and then it's normal to pay 2 points to go to Tyrant. We are talking about the Adv Dragoon here.

As I said, evolving to an Adv class will consume one evo point that you cannot get back in any way. Maybe you do not agree with how it's done but the fact is that's how it works for now.

I like the current system. It's like you can choose from those general classes, basilisk, marauder and goon, and then if you are particulary good with one of them, you can specialize to one of them even more, which costs one evo point. If you  for example tyrant evolve to tyrant, you lose that point, like Stof said.
