Hey guys and gals,
I want to talk to you for a moment about basic standard classes, custom classes and level bonuses. The old custom class system was kind of a mess. I was never happy with it. This new format is cleaner, more balanced and it gives you the player more control over how you customize your class. If you are level 7 or higher, you will need to redo your custom class. You can pretty much recreate what you had before but this time you have more control over it. You can use the same name you had before or come up with a new one, it’s up to you. The custom class is a menu, like a restaurant menu. You just choose which items you want. They are broken up into a few sections: skills, weapon upgrades, and splitting options. There are 18 total items on the menu and some can be selected more than one time. At level 7 you get 4 choices, level 8 you get two more, level 9 you get two more, level 10 you get 3 more. By the time you get to level 10, you will have 11 out of 18 items, more than half. If you already had a custom class and you are rebuilding your class; Lv.7 players you have 4 menu options lv.8 players you have 6 options total Lv.9 players you have 8 options total lv.10 players you have 11 options total. ————- Before I go more into custom classes I want to talk about how the basic standard classes work. Everyone can do everything. Everyone can hurt, heal, move, Shield, block. The way I see it, whether you are Joe or Cobra, at some point you’ve had some basic field medical training, at the very least you know you to wrap a wound. Every class has had some basic combat training, even cooks. If you are a soldier, your specialty is hurt. You hurt for 4 points, everything else is 2 points. If you are a medic your specialty is heal, you heal for 4 points, everything else is 2 points. For each basic class, their specialty is 4 points, everything else is 2 points. ————— Now let’s talk about level bonuses. Your level bonus is your level. If you are level 6 you get +6. If you are level 4 you get +4. BUT, your level bonus can ONLY be applied to your class specialty, everything else is 2 points, that’s it. If you are level 1 thru 6, you will be playing as a standard class. Your class specialty is 4 plus your level. So a Lv.6 player as a soldier does hurt -10. That’s 4 points for the class plus 6 bonus points. Any other post is for 2 points. ————— Custom classes work a little different. You choose what your specialty is going to be. You can choose up to 2. So for example you can choose hurt and heal. When you use your specialty, your points are whatever your level is. Level 7 posts hurt 7 or heal 7. Everything else is 2 points. Let’s see what this looks like: a level 8 player has chosen hurt and heal as his two primary skills. He posts Hurt -8 Heal +8 Move/action 2 Shield 2 Block 2 Now, let’s say that you have already chosen two class specialties and now you want to beef up one of your other basic skills. You decide you want to beef up your move/action. Menu option #6 “add +2 to a basic skill”. So this level 8 player has chosen Hurt and heal as his two primary skills, those are his specialities. But he has also chosen menu option #6 to beef up his move/action from 2 points to 4 points. Now it looks like this: Hurt -8 Heal +8 Move/action 4 Shield 2 Block 2 *Don’t choose menu option #6 unless you already have chosen two specialties. You can do it, but you are better off choosing a second primary skill rather than beefing up one of them for 2 points. You also have many weapons upgrades to choose from. You can buy as many as you like. You can use a different one each day, but only one per day. You can choose several splitting options. You can only split your primary skills that you have chosen as your specialty. Let’s say a level 8 player has chosen hurt and heal as his two primary skills. Now he wants to be able to split hurt -4/-4. You can buy that option. BUT remember that this option can only be used for the skill you selected it for. If that player wanted to split heal/heal he has to buy that option again for his heal. If he wants to do hurt/heal, that’s a different menu option. ————- So let’s compare a basic standard class to a custom class. Players level 1-6, playing as a basic class: its 4 points plus your level. A level 5. Player using soldier class does hurt -9, 4 points plus the level bonus. Everything else is at 2 points. If you are a level 7 or higher player, your specialty is worth your level, so a level 9 player posts Hurt -9. Everything else is 2 points, unless you have beefed up one of your basic skills with option #6. Keep this in mind, if you have a custom class, you don’t have to play as your custom class. If you just want to do a ton of hurt or heal and you are not worried having all the other options at your disposal, you can play as a basic class. A level 8 player using a basic soldier class would get the 4, plus 8, so he would hurt for -12. BUT, your custom class can do way more stuff. So it’s your choice. Team leaders will notice that with this new system their lower level players are much more valuable on the field. **If you have not setup your custom class by the time the game starts, don’t sweat it. You will be assigned a basic class and you will have a ton of points for your class specialty. Take a look at the menu and choose your options. If you have any questions I love questions really. Questions help me as much as they help you. Send me a message with your menu options or whatever questions you have. |

Here it is, a brand new thread to play in.
This will be used for inviting new players into the game, as well as inter-team communications. Everyone, please understand that this is a game, and is supposed to be fun. The main goal is to make new friends and have a good time. Please remember that Hisstank rules and regs still apply: 1. No trolling, or flaming. Any form of personal insult is a no-no. As a basic rule of thumb: if you think that what you are about to post is insulting, don't post it. No posting with the intent of starting "Drama". If you feel the need to start trouble, go elsewhere. 2. No posting IM or PM conversations. This is not only a breach of privacy, but it is also incredibly annoying. Most people are not going to want to wade through an IM conversation you had with someone. 3. No harassing board members. This goes for either in posts on the boards (see rule #1) or in private messages. 4. No Political Discussion at all. No Jokes, no flash animations, no political signatures, nothing. 11. No mouthing off at staff. If you have a problem with a decision a member of staff has made, PM them. 12. No alternate identities. This is instantly bannable if we catch you. 13. Keep the swearing to a minimum. A lot of posters here swear a fair bit in real life; however, you never know how old the next person to read your post is going to be. So try to keep the amount of swearing you use in posts to a minimum. Team members are to stay in their thread. There is one for the Joes, and one for Cobra. DO NOT go into the oposing teams thread. You will earn a penalty for your team. Fun ribbing and teasing is encouraged. Personal attacks on anyone will NOT be tolerated by either side. Please, guys, let's have some fun here. Treat everyone with the same respect you'd like. We are all friends. Things need to be kept PG/PG13. Any problems or issues, take it to PM. We have Moderators to help, as well as the team leaders. I want this thread to be kept POSTIVE and FUN. Let's all do our part to make this the most fun game around, and rememeber, no strategy in the thread. Hail Cobra!!!!!

Well, sadly 2019 will be the first year since the game was founded in 2008 where there was no game. It seems that an era has really come to an end now.
While we didn't always see eye-to-eye (other than down the barrels of our rifles), I always enjoyed our battles Snakes. Best wishes for a happy holiday, and hopefully one day we'll get to do this again. |
