If firing a weapon while inside a Chiller’s freezing zone prevents the weapon from regenerating heat, then why staying in that zone without firing doesn’t cool the heat bar down (a bit) faster? I mean, every time I enter a freezing zone with a high heat bar (close to overheating my weapon) without shooting, it still cools down as fast as while I’m not inside that icy zone.

Nice, I actually thought of that before but now you suggested it.

@GoldenUndrowler

have you ever thought about the Pecking Order in 2 waves : Play Both Sides / The Lathe ?

@InterAction_studios In the Cherry Bomb wave , the Pecking Order is also impossible to get.
It should be removed , because when we trying to get Pecking Order , the bomb is very easy to be shot rather than the chickens ,it will explode to the Chickens and lost Pecking Order immediately.

For new players that play high difficulty Meteor Storms, sometimes they can be destroyed from the asteroids behind them. Can you:

• Add Danger Zone?
• It should say “Watch your back” everytime asteroids come from behind?

@Starbrockle

it’s annoying and hard when you have to move your eyes from your spacecraft to the heat bar, and the other way around, while avoiding the comets.

It’s not, it takes a heartbeat to look at the overheat bar. Plus did you forget that there is a beep trail (and a sound) that triggers if you are close to overheating?

[RainbowBoyVN]

• Keep the current.

@KnockoffFeline

This was already the case until v.72.

Never knew.

@KnockoffFeline

Let me build a poll for you

Thank you!

Believe it or not, I suggested the same thing, yet IA denied it:

@Starbrockle

for every Meteor Storm wave that has meteors appearing in the opposite direction (behind the players, at a very high mission difficulty), can you add either a danger zone on the entire bottom of the screen, or, at best, some text in the description of the same wave? Something like this:

Wave x of y
Meteor Storm
Watch your back!

I’ve just had this idea since I realized something. Players who stay at the bottom of the screen might have a bad surprise crashing into meteors that appear behind them (instead of in front of them). Not everyone always expects that ‘‘meteor direction trap’’ (especially new players, or players forgetting about that dangerous feature). Besides, at the beginning of each meteor wave at 100%+ difficulty, I always go to the center of the screen while using my weapon because I’m scared of getting destroyed by that trap. That’s why a wave warning would be needed, to know when to get prepared.

@Starbrockle

I always go to the center of the screen while using my weapon

@InterAction_studios

And there’s the answer to your problem

Still funny considering how fast the meteors go in the highest difficulties.

@Baron

But what if the player mutes their audio and has spacecraft customization that makes it hard seeing the ‘‘Beep’’ trail? Besides, after the ‘‘Beep’’, players would keep firing their weapons while keeping their heat bar very close to overheating (especially with the vulcan chaingun during comet chase missions) for several seconds, therefore not another ‘‘Beep’’ would trigger.

Rainbow, what is this poll of yours?..

[RainbowBoyVN]

In the “Oops, Wrong Exit!” wave, can you make Anomaly Zone a little bigger? (or make it lower)

My spacecraft still not changes direction even im not using any Eggular.

@Starbrockle

Rainbow, what is this poll of yours?..

There’s no disagree choice in PlasmaX post.

@GoldenUndrowler

Cherry Bomb wave

Same thing for Bubble Bath.

[GoldenUndrowler]

@PlasmaX

Same thing for Bubble Bath.

No , Bubble Bath is possible to get Pecking Order ,fire slowly.

Is anyone here who is bothered by the red flashing effect of fireballs/overheat zones?

[GoldenUndrowler]

@Fractorial

Is anyone here who is bothered by the flash effect by fireballs/overheat zones?

Yes. Sometimes it makes me blind.

Yes. Sometimes it scares me.

@Starbrockle

Who in this world would do such thing? Besides the beep trail is very big for the player to notice whatever customization it has. And again taking a look on the overheat meter is an heartbeat.

@PlasmaX

Reset this poll and make a no option please.

@Fractorial

anyone here who is bothered by the red flashing effect of fireballs/overheat zones?

Yes it blinds me every time because it is too flashy.

[PlasmaX]

I know.

[ChickenGaming]

I think in later versions, it would be vital to have anything that can kill you to always be visible.

As of right now, they can be covered by a lot of ICBM blasts (which I guess is fine in SP, but you could die because of someone else’s mega ICBM combo in MP), decorational pieces like the Yolk blowing up on the screen or the shirts of bosses, the fire HUD in some edge cases (get it?), …
which could make dying a bit unfair in certain cases.

Also also, fire chicken’s fireballs should be a bit more yellow-y than it is red, since red stuff tends to phase in well with the hot red background, especially on the sides where the fire hud is.

@ChickenGaming

Uh… ICBM erases projectiles existing in the screen

[Starbrockle]

@Baron

Who in this world would do such thing?

Maybe someone who’d rather listen to other music on YouTube while playing CIU, without the sounds from CIU bothering them?

@Baron

Reset this poll and make a no option please.

Not voting would be the equivalent of a ‘‘No’’. Or just hesitation? Or not caring about it?

@Baron

Yes it blinds me every time because it is too flashy.

Say Cheese!

[Baron]

@Starbrockle

Maybe someone who’d rather listen to other music on YouTube while playing CIU, without the sounds from CIU bothering them?

I meant who would disable the audio and having a thing that makes the beeping effect unoticable? Still its really bigger than any ghost trail.

@Starbrockle

Or just hesitation? Or not caring about it?

It’s never good to not allow any disagreeing option in polls.

Point taken.

@Baron

Ask Plasma.

[PlasmaX]

@Starbrockle

Ask Plasma.

Right now it doesn’t matter because you already said that he denied it.
