Topic: Vorp! / Dragons and Titans

Just tried it, and while a LOT of the bad things about Vorp! seem to be addressed, like newbie tutorial & bad player reporting, the first game I played in was heavily lopsided. My team had 1 leaver and 1 other that had apparently decided the tutorial wasn’t worth his time. Other notes: it still eats up all of your memory to make the cool 3d graphics, and the dragon speed seems to be a little slower.

Topic: Vorp! / RUSH on D & T forum and shout

It would at least be nice if they posted ANYTHING about their intentions with Vorp! The silence is getting old, and soon I will give up hope and stop checking in here…

Topic: Vorp! / Dear VORP! fans...

The only real solution at this point is to move on… unfortunately. I guess there is an off chance to beg whomever controls the game now to improve upon it, but doubtful.

It makes me a sad panda? also…there are alternatives like StarControl…

Topic: Vorp! / Vorp Corrupt-A-Wish

You wanted the plane in front of you. Its ALWAYS in front of you.

Topic: Vorp! / Let's Nerf Craw Some

Gravedigging threads now? If the dev’s bother to answer this at all – then I am totally behind you just because I would be so happy that they bothered to care. Otherwise, we need an all around balance, not just Craw.

Topic: Vorp! / Vorp Corrupt-A-Wish

Granted, but it also traps him so he can never actually leave the plane – so he goes insane and commits many horrific acts that I am sure would get this thread flagged if I mentioned them.

I wish you would post a wall of babbling text. :P

Topic: Vorp! / Vorp Corrupt-A-Wish

Granted, but due to bugs left in the game – its the only ship available to use.

I wish the developers would come back and improve the game…

Topic: Vorp! / END games developer sightings

from sqqd_bll, March 1st:

Saw EndGamesChris just half hour before posting this post ….The Sun has started to appear in darkness of light..
played game too with him but he didint replied in char room…
(Dont say that was a fake guy with EndGamesChris he got same picture like EndGamesRyan)

Topic: Vorp! / END games developer sightings

Please post in this thread if you come across any of the developers of Vorp in chat or anywhere else online. Also please relay any info they might have about the game.

Please list WHO you hear from, WHEN they made the statement and WHERE you saw it.

If they want to be anonymous, that’s cool as long as is truthful.

Topic: Vorp! / End Games

The developers were not making enough $$ like they had planned on. They acknowledged some of our concerns that the game is not fun for new players (mostly the reasons Masa listed), and largely dismissed them. Now they are likely on to another project immediately after asking us vets to send them money.

Thanks EndGames!

Topic: Vorp! / B! Rewarding System (my opinion)

Did you really make a Kong account just troll around Vorp?

Anyways if someone sits around doing nothing, the game will end sooner and the losing team would get less points.

Topic: Vorp! / Some different game modes, perhaps?

With other CTF games, if you teleport/boost, you drop the flag.

Topic: Vorp! / B! Rewarding System (my opinion)

I would like to see B! awarded based on elapsed time (losing team gets more points the longer the match lasts, winning team gets more), or maybe something to do with how many structures are left over at the end of the game.

Topic: Vorp! / Devs: Nerf Kamehas ASAP please

Kamehas take the blame because they are usually responsible for the actual kill. Most of the damage is done by the lances/ampnotics.

Topic: Vorp! / Bugs and Suggestions

Originally posted by BunBun2:

For the Virus thing, I was hit, unable to move, and killed, still unable to move. Though that might be a bug, now that you bring it up.

The lance cannot hit more than three times per activation, or shouldn’t.

Iron Wolf needs cooperation between teams, not on your own team, to get those. Can you honestly tell me that Razor Sharp can be obtained in normal play?

-Maybe you were hit by the Virus, and then immediately died from a status effect? Sounds buggy to me.
-I think we just need some clarifications on what was intended, Craw damage could be a feature and not a bug. Are you sure its the actual LANCE and not the Tesla sparks that go with it?
-Razor sharp is pretty wild…it should give you closer to 50 B! But its completely possible, even though improbable.

Darth: can we keep this thread to just bugs for now?

Topic: Vorp! / New Ship Idea....

Pretty good start there, Miguel!

…unless you finished painting it and my computer just refuses to load the rest. It says its still loading the page for some reason.

Topic: Vorp! / Bugs and Suggestions

A couple of those aren’t really bugs…

I think the Virus is only supposed to work until the player is hit…which makes it mostly worthless in most cases.

Getting swiped by the lance more than once should hurt you more than once.

Needing a cooperative team is not a big deal if you ask…killing 100 drones might be, but I suspect it wasn’t meant to be easy.

Angelfire one is a good catch.

Topic: Vorp! / thruster tech vs max speed

Doesn’t have to be just racing.

Topic: Vorp! / thruster tech vs max speed

Would be a lot easier to test if we had practice mode with other players…

Topic: Vorp! / thruster tech vs max speed

I use max speed…but I don’t notice a difference. Maybe if I had 30 of them it would be noticeable.

Oh, no you are mistaken, Klackerer. He is into the hundreds now.

Topic: Vorp! / Good article on VORP

They are paying attention…within an hour of reported actual problems (server crash, rotation error, whatever), its just that they are not choosing to talk to us directly.

So we are left to speculate…

Topic: Vorp! / Masakarii (still) using alt account leavers

My complaint isn’t about ranking (which is easily gamed). Its the fact that botters like Masa are trolling the other team by creating games where his opponents have an extremely frustrating and bad experience.

They have ~0% chance of doing anything productive and forcing them to play with 2 players down means they just get killed repeatedly, can’t attack effectively (or learn tactics for doing so), and can’t defend effectively (or learn tactics for doing so).

It is bad for Vorp. Period.

Topic: Vorp! / A reward for reaching Rank 30?

Trust me, if you get up to level 30, you don’t need lame alts just to get an extra ship.
