  1. Super LYLE Friends,

     

    No hard feelings mi amigos. I'm headed on a PokeMMO spiritual journey. Needed to see what life was like out and about in the wild. Ya'll mean a lot to me and I wish you all the best, especially KingBowser. The homie has made a lot of progress in this game and I hope he kicks the shit out of Amanu and Frags. Masters Masters Master. The very best. JSTUD, you know you're my boy for life. Rhasta pasta is the best nig around. Hope he doesn't go cray cray without the JJ. Quakkz, you sir are a breeding legend and one of the chillest dudes on server. Robofiend I love you like my kid brother who grew up and started beating the crap out of me at everything. You're too good. If you need anything just come whisper. TheBloo I can honestly say that you made this team great. Your help got us to where we are today and I just want to say thanks. It was unbelievable when we got you to join and even more unbelievable when you stayed. Now for the diggler eggroll... shit man, you're just too cool. By far and away the guy I want to be in life. Started out doing work for us and never complained once. Now you're a god damn boss and lovin' it. As for the rest of ya'll... damn... been a pleasure.

     

    Adios guys. Maybe LYLE will see the JJ again someday when my journey is over.

    Hurry up on ur journey. I still need to beat you in a duel, but it will be meaningless if you are not a LYLE member when i do it.

  2. Sounds a little disgusting haha, even tho he says he is perfuming it lel. He just got some strong points as usual and I do support some of them, including this one. ;)

    Haha im glad you saw it for what it was... a joke. I too agreed with what he had to say in this particular thread. But some ppl cant decipher a joke a serious insult :/

  3. probably doing a 1 week break or something , did too much breeding last week, tired of that :D gonna give u guys back stuff i have from you (bloos ditto etc.) and need back my ditto then.

     

    hope im still in the team when i logg in then next time, pls no blood.

    If they kept me around during my one month leave im sure they'll keep you around haha. I gotta know what you want me to do with ur eevee, scizor, and marro. I can sell them and have the money w8ing for you when you come back.

  4. It's more interactive than biking from one side of 4 island to the other 100 times.

    And afk timer is a must have so that people can't afk and full the server while others are trying to get in.

    Lastly anyone who breeds lots can say that if you went to Cinnabar and used the egg move thing 4 times that it is very very costly.

    Okay you obviously not understanding what i want. Its not the afk timer that kicks you from the game that i want gone. Its the afk timer that only las like a min that stops ur eggs from hatching that i want gone. You sit around for a min the egg stops hatching, i want that to change. And if you  are grinding payday/ev training while you are trying to harch an egg bc you want that timer to keep off your ass you arnt doing something that is involved with breeding so breeding itself isnt that interactive. Its simply giving ppl the option to do other things while breeding, which is great but i believe you shouldnt be forced to do those other things in order to breed

     

    Im just saying this is going to be a worthless thing to add, breeding cant be any easier

    Theres nothing to add. My main suggestion is simply to take a way the afk timer placed on eggs, the other two suggestions were just sub suggerstions, and theres next to no development tim required removing the afk timer.. And it doesnt really make breeding easier just less annoying bc you wont be forced to grind while already grinding. It would not help you get better pokes, if they did decide to simply double the time it took to hatch eggs while inactive (which would take minimal development time) it would actually still be greatly beneficial to be active in game while breeding when compared to being inactive. But those who do just want to stand around and w8 for their eggs to hatch will have the option to do so.

  5. I'm saying the idea undermines the reason the flags for breeding is even in the game.

    Oh i see what you are saying. The thing is the reason for the flags was to make breeding more interactive. But breeding isnt interactive with or without the afk timer. You go to cinnabar, then run from 5 battles. That is all that is involved in breeding. The afk timer just forces you to do something else while w8ing for eggs to hatch. As I mentioned b4 a lot of ppl dont do anything besides chasing the afk timer away. A lot of ppl do pay day grind/train their pokes but why force ppl to do that kind of stuff in order to breed. 

  6. I believe 4 flags is the problem, No matter what I go for all 7 as when I get 4 the timer starts and when I get the other 3 to make it seven the timer has already ran for a little bit and it will go faster with all 7.

    Yes it is true that 7 flags is faster I was simply testing if you can hatch eggs by solely spectating battles. The results were no but that may have changed. 

  7. I have spectators a battle without doing anything for 5 minutes and I was fine, sure I kept an eye on it, but I was not kicked from the server.

    Its not being kicked thats the problem. After a min of not doing anything in the game your egg is no longer hatching. When i tested whether or not spectating battles kept this from happening it took 20 min of running around to hatch my egg with 4 flags. After 40 min of spectating battles with 4 flags up the same egg still didnt hatch. It will however eventually hatch if you are switching battles every min bc the act of pressing the button to spectate keeps the egg timer going. But after a min of spectating the same battle w/o chatting or doing anything else the egg timer stops. At least thats what i have found while testing this. Im currently testing it again to see if that still holds true.

  8. I meant hatching the eggs for cannon. Grinding is the MMO side of it, you could always spectate a battle and open a different tab, or you can watch the battle and have entertainment. This accomplishes the same thing, it's already in game and can be done in less time then you suggest.

    I dont mind grinding, its just when im forced to grind while already grinding it becomes a bigger pain than it needs to be. Yea ive been told the spectate thing, but im pretty sure after the first min of spectating the afk timer kicks in. Ive been meaning to test this again bc it would be great if that has changed and youre right it would make this suggestion pointless. 

  9. Let's bring canon into this, could you just sit there and breed an egg in real pokemon? No. In an MMO environment should you just be able to sit there doing nothing when your online? No, because you should be playing and in PokeMMO and any other MMO if you are not doing anything you should be kicked from the server. No matter what there is always something you can do in that downtime and if you don't know what to do, find something.

    Its been a while since i played cannon pokemon, and i deff didnt breed that much. But im pretty sure in pokemon you can just sit there and collect eggs if you wanted to. In other mmos you can benefit from standing around. A lot of the time its in the form of healing. Some mmos have things you can grind while afk. And do other mmos force you to grind other things in order to grind for something else? There are things we CAN do, but why should we be forced to do these when we are already grinding for pokes? I mean you guys make it sound like i want something with out actually having to play the game, thats not the case. Im not saying hey we should be able to automatically get the eggs, unlock the flags, and have the eggs hatch. No all im asking is if i want to just grind for pokes and not have to worry about ev training, bc maybe i hire someone else to do that, pay day grind, bc maybe i make enough money selling my reject pokes, i should be able to just grind for pokes. Why make us grind when we are already grinding. And damn i said grind a lot.

  10. I'm sorry but the reason that the flags were introduced and egg wait time was reduced was to have more gameplay in breeding and this idea is just ruining the point of the changes.

    We should go back to BikeMMO as well?

    This isnt about the flags nor is it about the egg w8 time. Its about the fact that we are forced to find something to grind while we are already grinding. We dont have the option to just breed and nothing more.  I mean we do but we have to go through annoying steps to do so. Imo the way breeding is is great. If you need to ev train something or need to grind for money you have the option to do so while breeding. But you dont have the option to just sit there and breed, and i think we should.

     

     

    Cody, next time you make a suggestion, I hope you ask yourself the following: "Is this what's best for the game as a whole? Or is this just what's best for me?"

     

    I'm not shit posting (not sure you know what that means), but I will lay off, as I've made my opinion on the matter quite clear. It won't be long before Darkshade drops one of his one-line hammers on this suggestion anyways.

    Thank you.

  11. Guess what? By "finding easy ways to keep the afk timer off them," that's called playing the game. In fact, playing the game is the easiest way to keep the AFK timer off you. TBH, if you're not ev training or money grinding while hatching eggs, you're wasting your time.

     

    I mean seriously, look at how easy the system is now. Take advantage of the system as it is instead of asking for easier, lazier ways to exploit it.

    Yes standing around and moving a space or two every 30 seconds or posting your reject pokes you never hope to sell just to keep the afk timer off you is playing the game. And so wat if i or anyone else wants to waste time while w8ing for eggs. Thats our choice, and we should have that choice. Not be forced to ev train or grind something while we are already grinding for pokes. And im going to stop responding to u now bc ur doing nothing but shit posting. We are going to have to agree to disagree, u have voiced your opinion, i appreciate ur input, now unless you have something different to say this convo is done.

  12. The OP has 3 likes, and only one person has commented to voice their support. Compare that to any other idea with traction in the suggestion box and that's pretty telling. Also, just saying "yeah i've talked to a few people who agree with me" is meaningless. Literally anyone could say that about any idea.

    I didnt say that they agree with me, they are just examples of more ppl who find easy ways to keep the afk timer off them as opposed to playing the game. You can believe me or not idc, but im not the only one who, while breeding, just wants to keep the afk timer off them. 

  13.  

    Once again, you keep making enormous generalizations and glossing over the fact that people actually can and do use their time hatching eggs productively. As is evidenced by your COMPLETE lack of support for this idea, the majority of the community uses their egg hatching wait time to EV train, grind money, hunt shinies or comps, and other things. Just because this isn't enough for you doesn't mean the rest of the community feels the same way (Once again, you have received very little support for this idea. Take this as a hint).

     

    As I've said before, the afk timer literally promotes gameplay. I don't understand how you can argue that it doesn't.

    And you're making generalizations too. Ive actually talked to ppl who told me they were doing those things i listed just to keep the afk timer off them. Its only been a few ppl but its not really a convo that you just bring up. I posted a topic asking how to keep the afk timer off you i got quite a few ppl say they usually do the things that i listed just to keep the afk timer off them.

     

    Also this thread isnt without its support. Its pretty much split down the middle. If you count the guy who had no idea what i was talking about i have  like1 less supporter than people who dont like the idea. 

  14. They won't implement a feature that allows you to unlock something in game while you do nothing, games are meant to be played and if you remove the play part then what's the point?
    This is not even necessary any person would realize that they could hatch any pokemon in half the time they would for this method and no one would use it.

    If nobody would use it then why would it be a problem? Also you arnt gaining something for nothing. You have to unlock the flags still. Sure you can use cinnabar island, but if you keep doing that then youll eventually run out of money and have to grind for more anyway. Ppl arnt playing the game now. Ppl walk around as if it was still bikemmo, spectate battles they dont care about, spam some type of chat, or stand around moving slightly every min. Some money grind and ev train sure but thats about all ppl do while breeding. Why force ppl to go through these things to keep the afk timer off their asses? Its NOT promoting game play. Ppl arnt playing the game, they are just coming up with easy ways to keep the afk timer off them.

  15. Maybe a change of title would help to clarify the idea of the suggestion, i would suggest something like:

    Make eggs with 4 flags or more hatch even if I am afk, but make them take longer so it kinda balances out.

    Just a tip, up to you OP if want to change or no.

    Haha did it thanks. The new title sounds a little long winded for a title but oh well if it help ppl not be confused.

  16. I think I get your post's point. You have no problem with the timer itself. But why did you say anything about the timer? If you don't think the game is fun, don't play.

     

    On a side note: This thread should be closed since the OP said his problem has nothing to do with the subject of the thread. Just issues with "how fun" the game is.

    I dont like the afk timer put on the eggs, not the egg timer itself. They are two diff things. The afk timer is the timer that determines whether or not your egg timer is ticking and is based on whether or not ur inactive. And i didnt say this game isnt fun, the game itself is fun. Have you made it to the endgame yet? If you havent (which you may have) imma explain what its like. For most of us the endgame is comp battling. Comp battling is the fun part of the game. To comp battle you have to grind for comp pokes mainly through breeding. Thats the not fun part of the game. You also have to ev train and make money. Ev training is also not fun and making money is usually done by payday which is also not fun. But you go through all of that ginding bc it IS fun to get good comp pokes, it IS fun to trade your comp poke and money for other comp pokes, it IS fun to battle with the comp pokes you just earned. But with the afk timer they took the most important grind (breeding) and made it more annoying for the sake of encouraging active game play which it doesnt.

     

    Where in the hell are you getting that my main problem is the lack of fun in this game. The game i fun, if it wasnt i wouldnt be playing it. Breeding and grinding isnt fun but grinding is a necessity for any mmo.

     

    Btw i edited the post you quoted to better represent what i meant by that not fun statement. 

  17. I can't seem to get behind this one. The timer is a great thing. Before the new flag breeding system, half the players in the game would just hang out outside the Breeding Center. Every other city in the entire game (except Viridian) was a wasteland. Plus, the timer after you get all the flags is based on how hard the Pokemon is to catch in the wild. This keeps "rare" Pokemon "rare" while still allowing for a shortened hatching time. The time to hatch an Eevee Egg used to make me cry, now it isn't so bad. Taking away a timer, or some other mechanic, just because players want stuff now isn't always the best thing from a gameplay standpoint. Doesn't matter how many people get behind an idea, the only way it will change is: if it is needed. Suggestions by the player base are taken with minimal weight. The vast majority of changes are because GMs and Admin playing the game SEE that the change should be made.

    It sounds like you dont understand wht this thread is about. I dont mind the breeeding system the way it is with the egg hatching timer and all. Its just that when you arnt doing stuff in the game the timer stops. Thus you have to grind while you try to breed which imo is a pain. Or you can sit there pressing buttons every min. or two which is a pain too. Theres not enough fun things to do while breeding in this game to justify not allowing us to breed while not being active in the game. And i honesty dont think there ever will be. 

  18. This is a good point, and it would seem there will eventually be plenty of things to do while breeding to keep you occupied with the game. (though paydaying/hunting for shinies/perfect IVd comps are adequate time wasters for me)

     

    Personally, I'd love to see some way to allow for matchmaking/dueling while also hatching eggs. Whether this be a complex fix (like allowing a 7th party slot that could only be occupied by an egg, then when it hatched, the pokemon would go straight to your PC) or a simple fix (like allowing for 5v5 unranked "Breeding battles" through matchmaking), I would really like to see a way to meld the matchmaking and competitive aspect of the game to breeding and hatching eggs. This has kind of turned into another suggestion, but oh well.

    I do like the idea of having an egg slot. It would allow you to group ev train while hatching eggs eaiser too. I still think that adding more to do wont fix the problem with ppl wanting to only breed without having to grind other things but it would deff help. I mean the thing is this is a pokemon game. Theres only but so much you can do with 4 directional keys and 2 selection buttons. But personally i can see myself wasting a lot of time and money at a pvp blackjack or poker table if one was ever added. 

     

    Two other ideas i just got...

     

    1st an incubator in the lab. You pay the scientist like 4-5k to use it, you put the egg in and it starts to hatch. This way you arnt being rewarded for afk play, but are paying for the privilege of not having the burden of the egg while hatching. Btw when i say afk play, i dont just mean truely afk. Most of the time when im "afk" im still at my pc in just not doing anything in the game bc theres nothing else i want to do. Anyway Maybe it can force you to turn it every 10 min or so. This would allow you to just focus on breeding without having to grind. It wont allow you to go completely afk, and it would be a good money sink. (With payday i think we need more of those)

     

    2nd This is sort of a silly idea but i wanted to post it and see what response i get. Some sort of minigame you pay for to play that allows for faster hatching. Maybe like a snake game where for every point you get adds a point toward the egg hatching. After like 20 points it starts adding 2 points. When you lose you have to pay to play again. This can be added in with the incubator idea to. So those who wants faster hatching can play this game, those who want less involved hatching can use the incubator and those who want to grind payday or evtrain can do that with their egg too.
