    Do statuses really mean anything when we have each other? As long as we're together, we don't need status threads. In fact, you don't need anyone else at all. Just me. Just Jan. Only Jan.

    Post #1 | Level Caps and Balancing

    ===

     

    Okay, first thing! I'm sure it's no secret that the level 100 cap is slowly creeping up on us. It's something I've been concerned about

    for quite a while. However, the Dev Team and I have come up with solutions to this problem. The Level Cap has new mechanics and I'd like to talk about them!

     

    Passing the cap in the old system just made your Pokemon disobedient. This was something that didn't even work well because

    half the time Pokemon would do what it was told anyway. There was basically no reason for the level cap to exist. In this new

    system, passing the level cap is not possible. The Level Cap is 20? No matter how many battles you do before breaking this cap,

    no Pokemon will exceed level 20.

     

    Huh? What's that? You've seen past my lie? Alright, fine. I don't want to limit people within the cap -too much-. 

     

    Truth is, it's only half-impossible. Passing the level cap isn't possible... with Exp. You'll still be able to pass the cap through other means like Rare Candies. However, like before, Pokemon that go pass the cap will become disobedient. The only way to fix this

    is to de-level them with Reverse Candies, or breaking the cap by obtaining a new badge. So that much hasn't changed.

     

    That's pretty much it when it comes to the Level Cap, though. Muy simple. Game balance time!!

    Ah, game balance... I don't particularly like doing this (At least for Pokemon games). I actually don't really care for it either. That's why two of my lovely Dev members, @Alex and @Azeria will be in charge of that from now on. Good. Take it. I don't want it. Probably for the best anyway. (I'll still be supervising things, of course.)

     

    Because of the Level Cap's new mechanics, we're able to do things that were not possible before. Previously I had to increase the cap from level 20 to level 30 after Venam because of the crazy amounts of gameplay between the first and second badge. However, since exp no longer matters after the cap is reached, I can bring the cap from level 30 to level 25. 

     

    What does that mean? Well, it means all the levels after the second badge shall decrease by 5. As a result, most players will most likely be overleveled by the time V10 rolls around. Don't worry, I will always look out and care for each and every one of you!!

    I will be handing out 5 free Reverse Candies to compensate for the level decrease. Whether you actually want to use them or not

    is up to you.

     

    And finally!! Last thing! Because of all this... I can finally give trainers substance. I don't need to give trainers 1 or 2 Pokemon all the time. The possibilities are endless. More fun for me, probably means less fun for you. So I'll probably have to control what I actually do. Heh.

     

    Teams will change. Chaos shall ensue. Rosters will rise in number. And the suffering shall continue.

    My money's on the whole thing being a set up by team Xen. They're probably trying to get you all in one place so they can do something which means it will probably never conclude.

    Perhaps they want something similar to Blacksteeple with everyone panicking and fighting. Or to capture Melia, the gym leaders and the other main characters.

     

    Nah, I say it is a genuine event, as they've already tried. I say that they interrupt it, but the MC and co. drive them away again.

    Spoiler

    Also who r those 2 kids who transform and pretend to be MU and Nancy?

     

  3. Dude I may be new but I have been lurking (Before i made this account) but Jan, holy Jesus your work and effort is amazing. I appreciate how much effort you put in, and I will never be on your level. I loved playing Rejuvenation from V7 I believe it was, and I didn't mind V9 having bugs. Everyone makes mistakes.

    Also plz let me in the Dev Team bro
