It would be nice if we have the arrangement of Ping ( from lowest to highest), so I can join some low ping room with better gameplay. ( more convenient than clicking to each room to check the ping on it)

Pings aren’t static values though.
It’s not easy to know ping for peer-to-peer network games. You’d first need to traverse NAT and open up the correct ports, which is very slow. I also didn’t want to pollute host routers with open ports to random IPs that just happened to only need a ping measurement.

If you’ve played CIU in Christmas seasonal content you probably noticed that eggs that chicken drops are themed into xmas baubles. I’ve played long enough to notice that this makes gameplay harder & unfair because:
- Its gfx size is smaller.
- It has bright color.
Zoomed out waves are affected more by this. Here’s an image sent from iA to compare the size:
I am not against theming but I think it shouldn’t take effect on the object size. Eggs from Easter seasonal content are a good example. So what do you think:
Should xmas baubles be reverted back to eggs:
- Yes
- No

I’ve also asked iA why GEN records everything from CIU except Episode DLCs and he said that Episodes are excluded because “almost all waves are presented in CIU”. To me I’d love to see footages from the Episodes appear in GEN highlights like CI5 planetary chapters or CI1 & CI2 bosses. What about you:
Should Episode DLCs have a chance to appear in GEN highlights:
- Yes
- No

Maybe making the baubles egg-shaped (and less bright) would solve the issue without removing their Christmas design?
I know, egg-shaped baubles would be odd. But this is CIU, so…

Having a bright color makes it harder? Normally, brighter things are more visible and stand out more, which is desirable for enemy projectiles.
I’m not going to make them eggs, but I’ve made the baubles larger and more white. Changed in v.155.3 
Idea
I’m phasing out GEN, or at least scaling it back. There hasn’t been enough interest to justify making so many videos each day.
GEN will also be completely paused for two weeks starting next week. I’ll post about this nearer the time.

Correct but not too bright. Also what makes eggs more noticeable is that they’re actually multi-colored, the top part is white while the bottom part is dark white(gray).
But yeah part of it being darker really helps to notice and dodge imo.
Thanks I’ll test again in v155 
hope that also affects the explosive egg(bauble).
I can see why, uploading videos daily is a huge effort and honestly I am surprised on how you still keep uploading till this day.
A break is obviously needed but I say don’t get rid of it completely. Mayby just don’t upload content daily.

well um actually he wrote a system to automatically compile gameplay footage into these videos (GEN), so what he has been doing is keeping the thing running, not that he’s actually making the videos
I know that they’re made automatically. I meant the uploading part which is manual.
Can enemies really escape from The Bonquet & The Tree of Life waves because they have clean sweep bonus.

Enemies cannot escape, but barriers can, and that is what decides whether you’ll get Clean Sweep or not.

Can customizing the shininess of the ship and the cockpit be separate?
Take these two paintjobs as examples:

Noticed that if you used special weapons in a joined multiplayer room and then leaving immediately without losing any life nor playing more until advancing the next wave, the special weapons will not be automatically removed like if you never used them, Maybe this is exploitable?
Doubtful. Multiplayer missions are never competitive.

“Thorny Tendrils”: Berserker chicks going… backwards?
(I’m not sure if assassin chicks are same or not)
