Yes, that's already on my list. I'm thinking about doing a quick update to give experience to dead players, but I want to see if there are any other quick fixes I can make.

not in the lack of strength,
not in the lack of knowledge,
but rather in the lack of will.

For those of you who think Resident Unreal isn't giving enough points - Please post some screenshots of scores. I'd like to do at least one update on this one so feedback on this point will help me when I make further changes.

Right now it is the same for every player and so a rank 4 character getting 100 is practically junk change.
I definitely agree there

agree.

however i will be interested to see the effect on all this by ant's next update, b/c if we could actually win the map and get some win xp, that would surely help.

i will also agree with comment by azmo, ant, etc that it is more team based now. whhen i played last time, i never saw such teamwork on that map, ever.

me think main issue for most is that we need to feel like we get xp according to our time and effort. it's fun no matter what :scool: but we like to get xp while having our fun. i will try to post a screenie of resident when servers are back online. to give you an idea of what that map is doing, before i would get 1000 points or more, but now i get 300 or less (in both cases, when winning the map, on my rank 4 berserk). however, other players who are lower level are not even making that much.

Unfortunately, we'll have to revert back to December 30th RPG changes. The latest one was not backed up before the server shut down.

However, to counter the lost data, I'm making a small change to the RPG. All experience rewards are amplified 1.5x than normal.

This update will remain on the server no later than January 13th 4:00pm EST.

When reverting back to normal RPG, all map records will reset to January 6th map records.

Changes from Sunday January 13th:

The experience amplifier has been reduced from 1.5 to 1.25. Map records are not reverted yet since next week it will back to normal experience.

I'm leaving this week to be 1.25 bonus experience week primarily because of the support given when the server was down.
