I didn't see this posted yet but sometimes I can miss what's right in front of me...

Right now in space laser tag no matter if you win or lose everyone gets 500 credits per game. They can really add up and idk how long this will last.

"Game Completed.
During our Space Celebration, everyone who completes the Space Pirate game will receive 500 credits!
You have received 500 credits!"

Awesome!

Well, everyone who knows me, knows I was never a pirate on VMK. I am not good with these types of games, although I actually had fun with this one. But, heck 500 credits a game right now...makes it even more fun! Woot!

Thanks for making an official post on this Dream, so everyone can see!

Yesterday was holiday for me, played like crazy and racked more than 30K. Hopefully, we dont see the name of the player except if we talk or are waiting in the same game of some ppl.

Ah dumbo question here how do you get to lazer tag. ?

ScarlettPixie · « **Reply #5 on:** June 02, 2009, 12:09 PM »

Belle, go to Space Age tab, which takes you directly to the SHOP... take a left.... stroll down the nice hall, if you see any aliens, scream... and next room is the Laser Tag lobby... huge room, doors leading to the game. Pick one and good luck!

Thanks. I needed the directions too. Otherwise I would be "lost in space". (

Woot found it. Not sure if this is posted anywhere else. Another player was kind enough to give me these tips:

Shift=run
Conrol= knee down
Control + arrow=knee roll
Space bar=jump

VFK did give us directions on the homepage, when we found out this game was being released. There are some more directions listed there as well, if they help at all? Below is the link.

So I figured I'd go afk with funfly and my spare HersheyGirl in a game together - they went in together, no one else was on their game list. I just let them stand there, no moving for me!

Round 1 - they stand there, time runs out - calculate by computer and enter round 2

Round 2-

I see shooting at both of me! By a guest and someone else! They were never there in the first round. Message at top of screen said I was "blurred" (never happened in the first 2 games I did the same way)

Round 3 - Guest and whoever shoot both of me again - it says I was "blurred"

But end of game put me in lobby and both of me got a pop up saying 500 credits!

New Game with Lag.....

Game with Spare....

Being "Blurred" by someone who wasn't even at start of game...

Credits at End.....

So far have gotten about 30K-40K in the game! LOL...

funfly · « **Reply #11 on:** June 06, 2009, 01:11 PM »

Checked in for a few minutes at Two other *cough* forums - seems like the laser tag game no longer gives 500 credits a game. They go by the game scoring, whatever it is, I haven't checked that out.

verenice · « **Reply #12 on:** June 06, 2009, 01:24 PM »

Unfortunately, it's true.
The game is no longer giving 500 credits per game.

goldengourd · « **Reply #13 on:** June 06, 2009, 01:28 PM »

Awww. Knew it wouldn't last.

verenice · « **Reply #14 on:** June 06, 2009, 02:46 PM »

On the upside you can make a lot more than 500 on a good game.

goldengourd · « **Reply #15 on:** June 06, 2009, 02:50 PM »

Has anyone figured out how the final score is tallied and in what way the credits are figured out?

verenice · « **Reply #16 on:** June 06, 2009, 03:08 PM »

Not exactly sure, but I do know that ppl on the same team get the same amount of credits on the end.

Pink · « **Reply #17 on:** June 06, 2009, 03:36 PM »

Nooooooooooo! I was getting RICH by putting myself AFK in game every 5-10 minutes while working and doing things around the house. Credits were really racking up.

Drat! Now I guess I'll have to learn how to actually play...

ScarlettPixie · « **Reply #18 on:** June 06, 2009, 03:45 PM »

Drats, take a nice map between the scavenger hunts and this happens! Want the 500 credits back!!!

funfly · « **Reply #19 on:** June 06, 2009, 06:21 PM »

So if you and a spare enter game on opposite teams; have yourself shoot your spare until it's "blurred" - might rack up some good credits. I'll have to check that out.

Would rather go in and go afk to get those old 500 credits - too good to be true forever

ScarlettPixie · « **Reply #20 on:** June 06, 2009, 06:47 PM »

Pixie played one game-- she won 0 credits.

Yeah.. sigh... I tried a game with myself, LOL, and came out with 0 credits.

What I'd like to know is... In a "bad" game (not that I have any experience in this, haha...

), if I end up with
-900 points... will I lose 900 credits???

I hope that doesn't happen, or else there will be no hope for me at all! I haven't played yet, so I don't know how well I can play this game.

verenice · « **Reply #23 on:** June 06, 2009, 08:47 PM »

A good way to get 300-400 credits is to play with either

A- You and a spare, or
B- With a friend (Better, bc its faster so you can get more credits)

and just shoot each other taking care not to blur the other person. In my opinion it is best if both are in the same team because that way both of you will get the same points (which actually ends up giving you more since you get credit for having the other person shoot you

)

Is the bug with jumping people fixed or is that part of the game O_o?

ScarlettPixie · « **Reply #25 on:** June 07, 2009, 06:30 AM »

Jumping people? Is that when you see the person go up and down like crazy? That is a bug as far as I can tell.

Oh, I forgot about that bug, what I wanted to ask was with people who are not in the same game as you at the start but then you see them in your game

ScarlettPixie · « **Reply #27 on:** June 07, 2009, 09:36 AM »

There is also another bug. Seems that you can follow someone in the game. But it does not let you play and kicks you out.

I followed Funfly and she told me that the game said, "ScarlettPixie has arrived"

ROFL. Then she was trying to find me in the game. When she told me in the laser lobby, I laughed. Talk about the royal annoucement! haha!

Actually... and I'm not sure how long this will last because surely VFK will fix it.... but KrazyPete and I did some experimenting last night. We played on opposite teams and STILL received the same amount of credits each game.

What we found works the best is shoot each other about 40 times, then both wait until health goes back to full, shoot another 40 times, wait until health is full again, etc. Don't blur each other or you'll lose out on the opportunity to get more shots in.

We score about 150-175 points each round, for a total of around 500 credits. Our scores are always different in game even though we both are doing the exact same thing (

), but yet our credits at the end are always exact no matter what we did in game (ie., he does all the shooting, I do nothing...). So.... I don't get the socring criteria yet

Cloudymellowdisco · « **Reply #29 on:** June 07, 2009, 07:03 PM »

I happened to be walking down the corridor into the game late last night and VFK Cactus walked in with me. Nobody else was there so she challenged me to a game. Two other players then arrived and we all played and the credits were DISMAL!

However, everybody did get the same amount of credits. One of the other players kept asking Cactus how does this game scores and she kept ignoring the question.

I don't think even the Hosts know!!

Someone commented something about the game subtracting points! So maybe this game is really trying to promote teamwork among all players??
