New Server - Multiplayer profiles only

Rubber Chicken · Post by **Rubber Chicken** » Mon Jan 07, 2013 5:17 am

I couldn't find the thread, but recently a player was asking about a new server that was put up. The question was about the sever not allowing them to log in and that a message came up saying the server allowed 'multiplayer profiles only'.

I saw it back on the list today, so I tried it.

O.K. so here's the deal....

Your profile has to be completely from scratch, or never have been logged into Single Player mode or the Training mode.

I personally like this.

With all due respect to the other wonderful server operators, I think I know where I'll be playing from now on.

For all the players who feel they or thier clans couldn't get a fair shot at claiming territory - here's your chance. I highly doubt there are many veteran players or clans that have profiles that have never touched Single Player. This is about as level as the field gets!

I hope there are others who are with me. I'd hate to play on this fine new server alone.

OUCH! OK NVM! Apparently you die, you're done. Your profile becomes void.

It *was* a great concept until that little tidbit.....

:(

Now I feel like a fool for promoting this. Thanks alot.

Yes, I guessed as much. This is for People who want it as real as possible, No cheating to advance with a quick save! So you die that is it, you loose everything. So this will be really hard to reach Legends or Fleet Admiral on that Server. Can you Imagine, you'r one contract away from Fleet Admiral or Legends and you die before finishing that last one?.....

:P:P:P:P:P

Sure if your into not having any military rank or someone who did get a good ship just rolling in and shooting you down when you have your first start at 0.0.0, just to find you need to make a new profile. Not to mention the occasional missed jump.
Station liscences to anything you build would be voided as well, and Clan war with that steep of a penalty just wouldn't happen. If this game didn't have as steep of a skill curve for long survival, I'd be for it. But even the best still bite it, and building a combat worthy profile - if your in a Clan or have a rival - and knowing your opponent will probably have a huge advantage if he should 'DID' you first, would be way too frustrating.

It's not something I'd jump into right away. But living dangerously is best done in a game ... where you can't really get hurt.

We run our server with MP only... why? Honestly I had no idea what it related to other than that everyone would be on the same level in the game.

As for death... well yeh that part sucks.

I started a profile on this MP server last night. I put the MP at the end of my call sign so I would NOT use it in SP. It is interesting starting from scratch. Now if I can remember how to get the goodies (HeHeHe!!)!
