jg325 Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 would this be O.P., a large mech that moves about as fast as a rock raider at base, is as powerful as the chrome rusher, has a laser, can clear rubble and possibly refine ore by itself, so op or not? Ps. anybody who wants to see if a concept they have is balanced or not can post here and hopefully it will be looked over and rated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lair Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 It would help if we knew what OP meant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jg325 Posted November 30, 2011 Author Share Posted November 30, 2011 O.P. = over powered, example: the odin from starcraft 2, both death stars etc. usually used to describe something that is too powerful, unbalanced, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McJobless Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 First, OP commonly means Opening Poster or OPerator on the internet. It relates to 4chan and IRC. Secondly, if you set the cost high, I think it's a fair vehicle. Just make sure it's worth what you pay for it, and nothing less than expensive/hard to achieve.

jg325 Posted November 30, 2011 Author Share Posted November 30, 2011 O.P. in the gaming sense, and i mean looking at its functionality is it too much or is it viable? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McJobless Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 O.P. in the gaming sense, Technically, gaming culture and internet culture are seen as one. I've only heard the OP term for the ones I suggested, but then again, I never played Starcraft 2. and i mean looking at its functionality is it too much or is it viable? If you were to give them it for free, then yes, it's "OP". But if you give it a little context and make it super expensive, or remove buildings and give functions to the vehicles, then it's actually a pretty good idea. That being said, I'm unsure if you can let a vehicle refine ore... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jg325 Posted November 30, 2011 Author Share Posted November 30, 2011 over powered is also used commonly (see constantly) around league of legends, most mmos, fighting games, etc idk if it actualy can be done in-game, im just making a design for a new vehicle and one idea was to have it scoop up ore with one had, then process it and spit out refined ore from the shoulder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cirevam Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 Uh... Nope. Not at all. No sir. It would have to be a mobile building for the ore refining ability, but it's perfectly possible. Lair 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jg325 Posted November 30, 2011 Author Share Posted November 30, 2011 i was thinking more like devistator from TFROTF but with a drill arm on one side, and a cockpit no head, and alot more, home madey, with tubes and steamvents and stuff proof that im am not ripping off cirevam what i have made so far, the right side is the driller end of the right arm, the left side, which has some framework, is the rubble scoop and eventualy the refiner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cirevam Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 Geez that's a big drill. How large would this thing be? I'd hope it would fit into a cavern. Lair 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jg325 Posted November 30, 2011 Author Share Posted November 30, 2011 the drill is roughly say 2/3 or so the sive of the body, it is very squat, it would fit into bigger ones, it was designed by jonathan to stop a base rush by whales, monsters, and slugs, the drills will pulp a whale in 3 seconds, the shoulder laser will fry slugs, and the scoop arm will rip monsters apart, mining uses are mearly side effects.

Amauros Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 over powered is also used commonly (see constantly) around league of legends, most mmos, fighting games, etc You're right, over powered is very commonly used. However, "OP" has very rarely ever been used to connotate the phrase "over powered." In fact, you're the only person I can think of who's used it as such. it is a 10 by 10 plate basicly Basically, what unit is "plate" exactly? Surely this vehicle isn't 10 by 10 squares in LRR?

jg325 Posted November 30, 2011 Author Share Posted November 30, 2011 ok, maybe saying op is just a colorado thing, but everyone here, correction, every gamer here, uses it, possibly because everyone here plays League of Legends. all my measruments are lego, so a 10x10 plate is 10 studes by 10 studs, for comparison, at its widest point, from side to side, the cockpit assembly on large vehicles is about 8 by 14 by like 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OP is used all the time in Starcraft to mean over-powered and I would assume in other games as well. Urban Dictionary agrees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amauros Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 Lived in a dorm full of gamers for a year and never heard "OP" used to describe overpowered anything; and there was plenty of discussion on such things. /:| Lair 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cirevam Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 I've been on GameFAQs for a few years and I've seen OP used to mean 'overpowered' plenty of times, especially in fighting games... but I've seen it used to mean 'original post' just as many times on the same site. It just depends on the context. Lair 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
