Slade Posted March 1, 2014 Author Posted March 1, 2014 Thanks, DBZ! Btw, the third head is in the middle, MMX. I've incorporated the feedback and updated the list. Tier 1: Human Tier 2: Zombie Tier 3: Space Monkey, Monkey Zombie, Denizen of the Forest Tier 4: Hellhound, Gas Zombie, Ghost Lady / Sarah Tier 5: Shrieker Zombie, Phasing Zombie, Pentagon Thief Tier 6: Napalm Zombie, Jumping Jack, "Him" / Avogadro Tier 7: Astro-Zombie / Cosmonaut, Brutus, Panzer Soldat Tier 8: Cerberus / Beast, Giants, George Romero Tier 9: Agarthan Zombie Tier 10: Ancient Evil, Samantha Maxis, Edward Richtofen, Ludvig Maxis I think we're nearly there. I agree with Boom that Sarah fits better in the fourth tier. Giants may not be 'enemies' but Humans aren't either. So they shouldn't be excluded, IMO. I'll have a chat with Lithium so we can continue our work.
MysteryMachineX Posted March 1, 2014 Posted March 1, 2014 Urgh, well I guess we can't agree on everything. Close enough I guess. Good art, btw Slade. EDIT: Oh btw, it is Giant Robot. Not Giant.
Administrators InfestLithium Posted March 1, 2014 Administrators Posted March 1, 2014 MMX: Craig told me multi-tiers that allow a choice of rank is not possible. It could be done, but would require a large amount of coding that we are not sure how to accomplish, nor do we know if it affects other system codes/mods. We are settling for simplicity at the moment. If we can learn of doing multi-tiers, then we'll see to it. Glad to see that everyone is liking these! Slade did a terrific job whipping up some of these (and his rendering puts mine to shame haha). Also, the list is starting to fit nicely.
MysteryMachineX Posted March 1, 2014 Posted March 1, 2014 Aw that stinks. So how about this, first we set in stone how many ranks there will be. Then we should try to all agree on which ones. If we can't have all of the bad guys, let us try to agree on which ones we do.
nayrcraig Posted March 1, 2014 Posted March 1, 2014 Tier 4: Hellhound, Gas Zombie, Ghost Lady / Sarah Tier 6: Napalm Zombie, Jumping Jack, "Him" / Avogadro Tier 8: Cerberus / Beast, Giants, George Romero Just to throw in my 2 cents I think I think George Romero, Sarah Faraday and Cerberus sound the best for there respective ranks (if it is possible to fit the names in), but do agree that Sarah belongs at tier 4 rather than 8. "Him" would also be my preferred name. I also think the giant (Robot) should be included somewhere as he is a very iconic entity in Origins and I think he looks good in the userbar. I would definitely like it as a high rank.
Tech Admin Hells Warrrior Posted March 1, 2014 Tech Admin Posted March 1, 2014 @MurderMachineX I was told then it wouldn't be possible, so I dropped it and went with the tier list Rissole made. Well, technically speaking that's not true, I said it was not possible previously, it is. It's just not automated. After further checks, manual intervention would be required to change the text, to whatever it was that was being requested. It would be on a per user basis, rather than a per group basis (which is what I thought it was).
Rissole25 Posted March 1, 2014 Posted March 1, 2014 I mean, I guess that could work. You would personally have to set up a thread to take the requests though. What about the userbars, are they changeable to the respective group? And what would the default list be (it's got to automatically change to something)? Regarding Denizen, I think it's full name is way to long to fit. If you somehow made it fit, the font would be smaller or the background picture would be covered. I think everything is good though. Those userbars and pictures are so good Slade and Infest. :)
MysteryMachineX Posted March 1, 2014 Posted March 1, 2014 I think an automatic process would be better than a manual one. I fear for a day when things go for weeks without being updated. I would prefer not to have to rely on manual input if at all possible. As for Denizen, just have two lines: Denizen of the Forest
Slade Posted March 1, 2014 Author Posted March 1, 2014 I've put a poll up to see which bosses people like to see become a reality. You can vote on more than one, unfortunately I can't set a limit on how many you can place your vote on. So please, limit yourself to three. We'll see which one's are popular, and work from there. I know we still haven't decided on just how many total ranks there will be, but that doesn't mean we can't continue working. Anyway, cast your votes, everyone
Administrators Boom115 Posted March 1, 2014 Administrators Posted March 1, 2014 I've put a poll up to see which bosses people like to see become a reality.

I know we still haven't decided on just how many total ranks there will be, but that doesn't mean we can't continue working. Anyway, cast your votes, everyone You should have people vote as many times as there are ranks. Do you have an exact number set?
MysteryMachineX Posted March 1, 2014 Posted March 1, 2014 What boom said. Or conversely vote for the ones you DON'T want set. That would work too. The way it currently is set up is purely a popularity contest. Not to mention the fact that your pole excludes a bunch. I'll say it again, Zombie God should be the ultimate reward.
Slade Posted March 1, 2014 Author Posted March 1, 2014 @Boom We don't. That's the problem. I'm taking into account 10 - 12 at the moment. And that's almost as many as there are available options. @MMX That was done deliberately. You'll notice that I've only put forward bosses that were added with the whole 'multiple selectable titles per tier' in mind. (Space Monkeys, Regular Zombie Monkeys) Ranks which we already know will be realized (like Zombie God, Human, Zombie) don't need to be in the poll. It works either way. You're just rephrasing the question.
GRILL Posted March 2, 2014 Posted March 2, 2014 Great work here, my votes hath been cast. I'm so excited for this to be a reality!
Tech Admin Hells Warrrior Posted March 2, 2014 Tech Admin Posted March 2, 2014 What I would like to start seeing if you can. is userbar plus 1 tally, 2 tallys, 3 tallys and so forth and then userbar and 1 perk bottle, 2 perk bottles and so forth and then userbar and 1 shield / hud, 2, shields / hud and so forth. This will give us a chance to implement them to see how they look. If you can do that, that would be great.
Slade Posted March 2, 2014 Author Posted March 2, 2014 So like having the userbar + x amount of tallies / perks / hud thing all in a single image?
Tech Admin Hells Warrrior Posted March 2, 2014 Tech Admin Posted March 2, 2014 If you can, implementing them as two separate images is going to require a bit of editing in the code, which isn't impossible (actually fairly straight forward) to do but I would rather not do this. To much editing of the original source file becomes a pain in the rear end come upgrade time or security patch time.
Administrators InfestLithium Posted March 3, 2014 Administrators Posted March 3, 2014 Rank images have been uploaded. Note that they are only temporary until we can get the other ranks in. Tallies/perk shields/perk bottles/whatever will be implemented when a consensus about which image to use is made. Until then, enjoy your new ranks. Edit: The only missing rank is Zombie God. For those who have >5,000 posts, I apologize for your image-less rank.
Nemesis_96 Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 Oh sweet they're on! Also, lol, no one likes ghost lady Edit: 420th post hahahaha #BlazeIt #yoloswag360noscope420mlg2k12
Slade Posted March 3, 2014 Author Posted March 3, 2014 Nice! I've updated the OP, adding in all the ranks we currently have. (and those damn, dirty apes) Also updated the tier list. We're now looking at 15 ranks. Not sure yet how the perks will come into play, but we're working on it. We also have something special in mind for some of the top ranks. Enjoy!
ETEl2NAL407 Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 Just to reiterate my suggestion regardless of which we choose from (tallies, bottles, shields). I'll refer to them as Icons for the time being... Only use 10 total and divide by the total number of posts within the Tier. I'll go ahead and do the math based on a Tier structure similar to one suggested earlier, but reworked to be easier mathematically 01-10 = 1 Icon per post 10-30 = 1 Icon per 3 posts 30-80 = 1 Icon per 5 posts 80-140 = 1 Icon per 6 posts 140-210 = 1 Icon per 7 posts 210-510 = 1 Icon per 30 posts 510-1000 = 1 Icon per 50 posts 1000-1600 = 1 Icon per 60 posts 1600-2300 = 1 Icon per 70 posts 2300-3200 = 1 Icon per 90 posts 3200-5000 = 1 Icon per 180 posts 5000 = Full perks constantly
GRILL Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 Eternal, I think that's way over complicating. Either that or I simply don't understand lol. Also that tallies/bottles/shields conversation is in the "zombification" thread - this is just for the user bars (to avoid confusion). Looks awesome guys. Seriously badass.
