Ren'Py Love & Sex Second Base [v25.1.0] [Andrealphus]

Be very careful with how you interpret random chance in games.
A 1 in 5 chance doesn't mean that you do something 5 times, its going to take that fifth time. It just means that every time you do something, its still going to be 1 in 5. Its always going to be a 1 in 5 chance.
So it just seems like you've just got bad luck.

I think that is pretty much what Fydo did, his calculation is correct for this question (do something with a 20% rate of success 10 times, only fails).

 

[Andrealphus]

Failing 10 times in a row at something you have 20% chances of succeeding only has 10% chances of happening

 

[madchef]

Failing 10 times in a row at something you have 20% chances of succeeding only has 10% chances of happening

Yet every time you give it another try you only have a 20% chance of success, as your previous tries in no way determine the outcome of your next coin toss. Many a punter lost fortunes assuming better luck next time.

 

[Andrealphus]

True ^^

The thing here of course is, if probability would be raised to 30, 40, 50% it would be all but certain to be quickly, but if you want that, you better buy those penis enhancements on the net (not yet implemented in game) or start with hung. Yet, with 1000 players trying to knock a girl up, 1 of them (on average) will need 30 tries and still not be there and still only have 20% on the next try and will be frustrated - the problem of a high enough number of players, evidenced at any game forum where these people will (individually correctly) mention how unlikely that all is.

Maybe a slow rise of one percentage point per missed chance of pregnancy or similar could alleviate it somewhat. You're still not certain to be quick, but you get a little lift-me-up and so after 10 tries already have a 6% chance of "missing" and the decrease of it will only accelerate (next try would already be 30%).

Hung to "you're not putting that inside of me" with no chance of pregnancy of course

(But actually, the pills were more kind of a joke, I considered a general growth of the dick/impregnation odds with any failure without the player doing anything more than one more "bilateral showing of affection and integration")

Andrealphus any plans on using Live2d since renpy supports it now?

I would personally like to see a system that we see in a lot of games with pregnancy content where the menstrual cycle is approximated so there are safe days followed by a gradual rise in fertility to dangerous days.

Would probably require too much work compared to what it would add to the game since it would be an entirely new system, but that's just my 2c.

I mean, you could fix it with their (given) birthdays, so for every girl her birthday is the max (or min) probability, and of course every other month/season with the same date. It's not entirely biologically accurate that way but could easily be explained in a few short sentences in the wiki or walkthroughs or what have you.

I toyed with the idea for a while but it will be for "Third Base" sorry

 

[DahliaRose]

How much of the Bree as MC side of the game is there so far? Anything? Or is it still mostly only the guy MC?

It is slowly expanding, but the emphasis lies on "slowly". In my opinion the Bree MC part still is not past the stage of "proof of concept" and not worth a download if that is the only part you're interested in.

Are you able to talk about what you have in mind for third base at this point? Hopefully animations?

I didn't start with guitar skill, but did buy the skill book: guitar at the bookstore.
I see it in my inventory, but cannot click on it. My needs are all 7 or higher, I've tried clicking it while in bookstore, my bedroom, university. Nothing. Can't click it.
Am I missing something? How do I actually read the skill book?

I am experiencing the same problem. Normally you should be able to just click on it like any other item in your inventory.

 

[Rezwan]

does anyone have save files with with all completed events?

 

[fasefive]

also keen for an updated save, after playing through a few versions a lot of my events are stuck or I've selected the wrong choices and missed out on stuff

really enjoying the game though I've sunk so much time into it lol

Does anyone know how to trigger Mike's Angels with Minami? Nothing in particular happens when I call Sam while all girls are in the house. It might be because some are asleep during the 0900 - 1300h but also on Sunday when they are all around at 1300h Sam can't be reached via phone for some reason.

Animations are a certainty for Third Base, I am on the fence between staying 2D and going cell shaded 3D.
And i don't know if it will be a reboot or a sequel ^^
