Universe - a Suggestion
#1
At the risk of thread Necromancy, I decided to create a new topic

Having read the spaceverse thread I thought what if with the changing of how vehicles work, what if now is the time to bring in a limited space verse?

Mostly it'd be a solar system setting (at first) where each planet is the verses you can access through the Nexus. This would open up the planets to being bigger as well as give us some means of moving around in larger vehicles. It'd also eliminate some of the choke points that are the Gates while still allowing the Vita Compasses to work as expected maybe even make them more effective as they can direct you to the gate or directly at them in a straight line on another world.

Balancing space ships.

Treat them like characters and bases. If they are going function in combat beyond being a vehicle, they need moves assigned to them, and stats. Or they adopt the stats of their creators. I can see either one working. How do you convert a base into a starship? You upgrade it with an item of some sort. If you don't you have to use a flimsy vehicle to go up in space.

How do you prevent characters from being turned into the wicked witch of the east. Have you ever seen a person get hit either good or bad by a ship's turbolasers in Star Wars? Nope, those things are designed for ship to ship combat or razing cities, hitting puny people is tough as hell like Tec 7-10 range.

Repairing damaging in combat would require moves of their own, or days and days or repair work. Think of the fun of base assaults.

Funtimes:
Coruscant and Camelot can finally go to war. Floating Castles vs Star Destroyers. Eldritch Abominations vs Frigates. Space Hamsters vs Death Stars- wait.
It would also give us a means of moving around as groups while working together.

In other words, anyone with a properly distributed Tier 2 Powered-Up Form can do it?

I'm not saying I disagree that it could be awesome to have big space battles and stuff, but even if it did get added as a verse, I doubt that'd happen. At least, not unless it was organised as some sort of huge event. Like, Dante's Abyss scale.

Also, as was said in the original thread on this topic; this verse, as you're describing it, would basically just be a replacement for the Nexus. All the other verses have their own distinct themes, so personally, if a space verse was to be added, I for one would rather that it didn't let you travel to other verses (or onto planets that look like them). You could maybe include asteroids, moon bases and satellites, I guess, but there's no point in just making more of what we already have in another place.

The way I would imagine this to be structured is similar in a way to the Dataverse.
Meaning that if there were to be planets to visit, they would essentially be sub-zones with their own themes and unconnected to the other verses. Although it may be a little much to add a whole set of planets to one verse, so I'm not sure how well that would work.

We've had the convo about a Space Verse a few times, and Omni is taking some time to figure out if it has a palce here and if it DOES, what it might look like.

I don't mean to squash conversation about it, but it's been done to death at this point. We jsut gotta be patient and trust Omni's wisdom Tongue

It is planned, it has been planned since almost the beginning, and I take a shot every time someone brings it up.
Curious about me and the characters I play? See the 'Staff' page! See also the rosters for my characters Samus Aran or Enel if you'd like to see examples of well-formatted rosters. Hope you enjoy the Omniverse!

Ah well the previous thread seemed like it was considered a good idea but no one mentioned it was actually being planned.
