Staff Q & A 2020

Postby mrblake213 » 22 April 2020, 16:57

Greetings,

the PB2 Staff will be hosting a Question and Answer event for the Community.

Kindly comment down the questions you want to ask the staff or (possibly Eric Gurt?) and we answer the questions while streaming it to Twitch.

Legitimate and appropriate questions only; anything about the game, the community, the future of the game, PB2.5, or any question that your heart desires.

Thank you.

Hi everyone!
I have two questions I would like to ask the staff.

Q1) Why does player sometimes resurrect after being shot by?
I am not against making the netcode client-sided, however what is the reasoning behind reviving players after being shot? Lag compensation? How exactly does that help?

Q2) PB2.5 will most likely support maps made in PB2 - well how about triggers? There are plenty of maps which heavily rely on triggers. Will the shift of PB2 being a client-sided game to server-sided game drop support from some triggers?
Proud to be part of something meaningful.
Need any assistance? Join the PB2 discord server at https://discord.com/invite/Bhe9rNz or raise a support ticket at https://www.plazmaburst2.com/support

Throughout from 2009 until now, it has been 11 years.
!) Do you regret about something you had done during PB2?
@) If there's another chances, what is the most demand thing you hope you can reverse in PB2 moderating/developing?
#) Is there any backups data during tempus removing the "newer forum"? If there's yes, could you help me get back the new forum trigger megathread back?
$) In PB2.5, is there any chances to introduce other facttions? I had seen some factions are being to be completed and suitable for the next few stories (such as Nexxon, ODEA, etc).
^) How's the development of facebook public page? Is there going to have any additional updates?
&) If there's a chance to demote a staff / promote a member to become staff, who would you choose?
*) what does "Alexa [Bot]" do in forum section? is there any secrets upon this alexa?
-) now it's April, and I hope eric had chosen whatever he is going to move his PB2 to adobe cloud or html5.
=) when PB2.5 is out, would you guys plan to create a new discord server or just use the current server? Thus, will the site changed minor (change the logo, pictures, etc) or major (completely remake from dust, url link is different)
+) Last question, is PB2.5 going to standardlize the trigger actions, such as make all trigger actions var-supportable, make the values are all in same slots, target and aims etc?

Hello! I would like to ask multiple things. (From Eric Gurt, if he has time to awnser all of this.)

Q1)
What will be the programming language is pb2.5 coded in?
C++ ? C# ?

Q2)
Do you have in mind to ask some people in the PB2 community to voice act for you?

Q3)
This kinda connects with "Q1)". How well will it run? Can it run on lower end hardware? Will it have graphical settings? With Anti-aliasing, ambient-occlusion, texture resolution.
(+1 question, will it have some sorts of reflections)

Q4)
(Question for staff, and take me seriously this time cause you guys been ignoring this.)
When will you reduce the #community-polls Slo-mo? Down to 4-5 hours instead of 6? Just please... :sorry:
My reason for still trying make gaymes:

7. Do yall still use ICQ?
8. What happened to the person who posted DoomWrath's personal facebook link back in 2014-2015?
9. Did Eric made new tools for admins/mods for banning people on the site after the pb2 staffs leaks?
10. What happened to Tempu's alt account, Shadoww? Why it was disabled?
11. Why do admins ''usually'' disable pb2 accounts?
12. Why old head moderator ZapruderFilm was kicked out of the staff team? What Tempus talked with Eric at the ''incident'' ?

But in the pb2 staff leaks, I seen a video where all of pb2 mod apps was there in a forum topic, and everyone (mods) could see it? Why was that? What happened?

Questions
1- Are the Staff are Very Old Players? (e.g they played like long years ago)
2- do the Staff Became Always Active?
3- Shouldn't there be a excluding match notice? (Means: If we don't want to accidentally Exclude a person that we need in the match and exclude the wrong one we get a notice)

Questions:

1. This is more of a joke than an actual question but is Discord REQUIRED for PB2.5/PB3?
2. Should we call it PB2.5 or PB3 now?
3. How will the skin creator in PB2.5/PB3 work? Can we get some more info on that?
4. How will the map editor tool work? Are we going to use the same PB2 map editor tool or a completely new one?
5. How does transferring accounts from PB2 to PB2.5/PB3 work? Is it as simple as clicking a button?
6. Will PB2 still be available when PB2.5/PB3 comes out? If so, how long will PB2 stay here for?
7. If a player has an active ban, will he or she still be able to join PB2.5/PB3 or wait till their ban is up?
8. Is there going to be an age requirement for PB2.5/PB3? If so, how will it work?
9. Is it possible to have custom genders on PB2.5/PB3? If we can have custom birth dates on PB2, why can't we have custom genders on PB2 or PB2.5/PB3?
10. This question may be asked already but how will the PB2.5/PB3 forums work? Are we going to stick with the PB2 old one?
11. Is there any way to donate or support PB2.5/PB3 with currency? After playing on a free game for so long, I feel I owe Eric at least a "Thank You!" card.
12. Are any of the admins retiring? (I hope not, they're cool)
13. How are our good friend Eric and the staff team doing personally? This quarantine is making everyone depressed.

Thank you Eric for giving us so much fun throughout the years! It has been 9 years since! (Even though I started playing in 2015) :P
Forever young, ever strong, ever brave.

Questions:

1. Who is most likely to become the 4th Admin?

2. Is the Staff team a clan?

3. In your opinion, who are the best staff team members, and who are the bad and corrupt staff team members in the history of PB2? (It doesn't mean that they have to be in the team at the moment right now, I am talking about the history, that includes all previous staff members as well)

4. In your opinion, who is the best player in the history of PB2?

5. In your opinion, who is the best YouTuber in the history of PB2?

6. In your opinion, who do you think was the worst player in the history of PB2? (Who caused drama, wasted your time, caused annoyance, hacked and violated the ToS a lot)

5. In your opinion, the best Clan in the history of PB2? (Be honest, no "DaRk cLaN tHe BigVST clAn" joke)

8. Will there be a new Editor for the map-making?

9. Game is sort of dying, got any plans to revive it back?

10. In PB2.5/3 Skin editor, are we able to make our custom skins and wear it?

11. Any plans to make PB2.5/3 a First-person Shooter?

12. Any year that you guys think PB2.5/3 will come out?

13. How much is PB2.5/3 done?

14. Why are you still here? What made you not leave the game?

15. How did the years go for you all? The journey from player to staff, would you like to share it?

16. Who do you think is the most helpful staff member?

17. Best year for PB2?

18. In your opinion, what is killing PB2? How can it be revived again?

19. Why Eric Gurt doesn't want to have a team?

20. Do any of you have a job outside of PB2?

That's most likely I have the questions in my mind right now, at the moment.

Well thanks to Eric Gurt for making an amazing place for us that we call PB2, if it was wasn't made, life would've been different and I would've been able to learn a lot, even though PB2 is just a game, but I have learned a lot of stuff from this game.

And thanks to the Staff team for preserving this place and make our time good by striking down the rule breakers and helping in lots of stuff, like Map Editor and other stuff.

also to all the staff members: how is your day

do hitboxes make a difference ingame between different deathmatch models? if so, which has the largest/most spread out hitbox? which has the closest-together/smallest hitbox?

is it possible for me to ask eric questions about pb2 or is this q&a the only time he will answer them?

that is all the question i have, thank you
