LordKosc's Vasari Mod (Truthful to the LORE)

from Sins Forums
I Felt the Vasari were missing that extra kick-ass-ness I figured they would have... I am working on Version 0.2 , I might reduce the shield and hull buffs to both 20% on the cap ships (once cap ships reach level 5-6 along with shield an hull research buffs they become GOD LIKE), and increase the default beam damage by 5% along with a longer duration for the beam so its less "flashy disco like"...

Change log:

Shod, you aren't even 18 years old and already you exhibit a complete lack of social skill.

You constantly tout your superior intellect and "skillz" in the game because you're "uber". Nobody cares, and nobody seems to like you one bit. You'll likely tell us you don't care if we like you, since we're all a bunch of parasitic idiots who can't grasp the greatness that is you in multiplayer.

But the majority of people here who wish to play this game don't want the Vasari to play as a hit-n-run type race, regardless of how much you enjoy that approach or how much the devs try to defend the current setup.

Perhaps we'd be more inclined to treat your viewpoints with some modicum of respect had you not immediately called anyone who disagreed with you an "idiot who needs to play the game for more than 5 minutes"

Perhaps you can star in VH1's Pickup Artist II and learn how to interact with others.

The only negative social interactions I've had are with YOU. The majority of posters here have had negative social interactions with YOU. I guess the rest of society is wrong and you're the only person who's right?

BTW, don't you have to pack your juicebox for school tomorrow?

grandgnu I'm simply going to ask you how long have you been around to judge me AND my social interractions with the group, the answer is since beta 4. I'm not going to respond to any more of your unintelligent assaults on me because you simply aren't in any position to judge.

and besides, this thread was fine until it became... this

and the other thing
I'm just saying that players like us are very excited about the potential this game has. And we're the type to not only purchase this and future products, but to also talk up a game we enjoy (in this forum, in our blogs or other forums, etc.) which helps to bring in more sales volume and attention to a developer.

These guys don't have the marketing power and dollars of an EA behind them on this game, but support from the fans can never hurt in getting the word out about this game.

Regardless of what they do with the vanilla races in this game, I think a lot of people will find the most enjoyment when they can use this engine to play Star Wars, Star Trek, Babylon 5, Battlestar Galactica, Andromeda, Stargate, etc. mods for it.

Not that the work on the developers races and storyline won't interest us as well. But the thought of having Super Star Destroyers, Vorlon Planet Killers, Cylon Base Ships, Borg Cubes, etc. is just too much to pass up!

Ahem, ignoring lame drama... (and I was worried about cluttering Kosc's thread! :/ )


Guys, guys, guys!  Ease up!


Sins is a game. It's not a physics simulation.


Pulse lasers look the way they do because that's how lasers have typically always looked on sci-fi in TV and movies (that's the style we're going after). We're not going after total realism here and it was never our intent to do so. If we where then you'd never see the laser weapons anyway except for shield impacts.




Well then, there ya go. If that's the style you want, can't really argue with that. I thought/think the flashlasers looked cooler, but if that's not what you guys want, hey, it's moddable. Never wanted to argue for realism because, well, it's silly. I do love how many junior physicists seem to jump out of the woodwork 'round here when this stuff comes up, though.

Schod, you are a lame troll, plain and simple. If you aren't interested in Lord Kosc's mod, then there's no reason for you to download and install it. As such, there's no reason for you to even be in this thread, except to be a lame, useless troll who constantly insults the intelligence and abilities of others.

You have an ego problem and are hiding behind the anonymity of the internet. You offer nothing of value to this thread, you are only here to cause drama. You are a loser and we don't need your input or advice. We'll play the game how we want, you play it how you want.

grandgnu I really do not want to spam this onto the boards, stop adressing me period. then MAYBE if you have something of substance to talk about in regards to the game we can act civil.
Reply #84 from Sins Forums Top
nobody is calling them liars, there are 2 groups in this community, the one your in, where you like what they are maybe with a few twikes here and there. The other group is grandgnu, lordkosc me and others where we believe this is Truthful to the LORE


What is Truthful to the Lore? The way you interpret it. What if you are incorrect, as it may seem you are.

Making blatant divisions is without reason, and is counter productive. Lets leave this mod to be only an interpretation, and not the real thing.

If the devs feel that there is a necessity for the change of the portrayl of the Vasari the Lore can always be rewritten and clarified.

There, how's that for a slap on the wrist to both sides?


If only that would make them behave. I was going to say a Novalith aimed for each of their foreheads, but then I would be critisized for some misuse of Lore or other.

the problem is grandmu, that all of you are going about it in a way that is 100% aggressive and derogatory, with statements like "you guys didnt blah" and "it was supposed to be like blah" and "I really was expecting blah which wasnt delievered"


Schemiffer you are often not much better then they are. I remember when Phase lanes first became a reality for the game, and then it was you who couldn't say one positive thing.

This all boils down to a poo throwing contest, I hope you don't run out...

Shod, you aren't even 18 years old and already you exhibit a complete lack of social skill.


One, age is just a number.

Two, a complete lack, and a slight defficiency are two different things. You are not in no position to critisize anyone yet, being a new member.

You guys are the devs, and being so you have complete creative license over the game.

I speak in the defence of our community, he has his interpretation, you guys have yours. What mine is I dont even know. So let bygones be bygones, before we are all transformed into an irrevocably hostile group of people.

as I quite remember nobody had anything positive to say, but I wasnt particularly agressive in acusing the devs of this that and the other thing

although, that I have done before. hence why I'm rather defensive of them now.

N/M, ignore this. Shouldn't slam at people.
Reply #87 from Sins Forums Top
Slams are good, flamewars are great entertainment. This though, there are so many Vasari this and that threads it's like trying to keep track of a landslide. I'm actually getting bored of it and only a few days in, it's so depressing.

Please come up with something new to bicker about, or at least stop bickering about bickering and bicker about the Vasari to start with...

I have to admit, sometimes these forums express the greatest ideas and debates in all out flame wars, but there are certain thresholds. I've been across and back those lines my fair share of times, but ad hominem trolling is just utterly pointless.

I've been a member since April 2006, I'm not "new".

If a good chunk of people interested in this game were completely blindsided by what they expected of the Vasari and what they got, are we all just insane? I don't think so. The problem is that there was information provided by the creators of this game on the Vasari, that created an image that many of the fans of this game shared. When we didn't feel we received what we believed the Vasari would be, we spoke up.

My problem with Schod is that he didn't just try and present an arguement for his point of view. He attacked other members of these forums who all shared the same viewpoint of the Vasari. He came right out and started calling people idiots, saying we had only played the game for 5 minutes, and pretty much said "I'm right, you're wrong, deal with it"

His attitude and approach to everything I've seen has been completely warped and twisted. He shouldn't even be in this thread AT ALL since it has zero impact on him. If he doesn't like this mod, he doesn't have to use it. He came in here specifically to start problems, thus I label him a useless troll.

It's like after the game and mods have been released, someone who hates Star Trek goes into a Star Trek mod thread and starts telling people they're idiots for wanting to play a Star Trek mod, and that they should play it the way HE wants them to play it.

Oh, and Schem's posts can be easily ignored, it was your choice to react at them.

No matter what there will always be different points of view of how a race gotta be, so lets leave it at that, and we all heard our love for one and another
So let devs do what they are best at, and hope for the better of both camps

So heres the line, after it, its all about the mod and nothing but the mod



so mrs kosc, whens version 0.3 comming out?

to be truthful, I dont know why we're still bickering about it. the devs have spoken, and we just have to have faith in them.

well, I just want to be extra clear in where I dont want them going

Schod, grow up. We all have opinions, trust me. Just because you have one, doesn't mean it's automatically true. Just because you think something is true, doesn't mean it is true.

Next time don't post; hopefully you'll be put on a timeout ban for a few days so you can become more mature.


Anyway, looking forward to more mods, kosc!

Groveling? Nah, that's a foot fetish and perhaps masochistic tendendcies. Not that I know anything about such deviations.
