Skin Contest Winner Announced

Z2Live announced the winner of the Skin to Win contest this weekend.  Skins were submitted by MSWM players & the winner was based on which skin received the most "likes" on facebook.  The snake skin, by Immortal Grimreaper & named rattlefang, received the most likes at 861 votes compared to the SV offering which came in 2nd place at 780 votes.  If you follow the facebook discussion, there is plenty of discontent by the SV crowd on the winning plane with claims of voting fraud.  I don't know if there was suspicious behavior or not.  How can you tell if a "bot" is somehow giving you extra "likes" - does anybody know?   I will add that I actually voted for the snake skin myself along with the red/black design & tiger skin.  The SV offering of gray with red trim really did not look very original to me, but heh, what do I know.

  3. Which class is the best? I like my defense class (Raven/Achilles) for campaign and survival, and agility (Reaper) for versus. -YHL

  6. We need more USAF skin designs on Metal storm! There is too much soviet planes. We need more American planes!

  7. Why not just have an F-15 with a USAF roundel on one wing and the letters USAF on the other with an American flag somewhere.

    1. Right... We still don't have enough f-15 eagles do we? How many more reskins do you want? And how high of a priority should that be when the game is littered with bugs and hackers?

  8. Just like on SGAS, most of the aircraft have Russian roundels. Though Revo Solutions is in a European country (Yugoslavia/Romania/Hungary).

    I think you're right , we definitelly need more U.S.A.F Designs. I mean, HECK! most of the planes are US, so why not have US markings.

    1. Nearly all of weapons class aircraft are American, and there are already so may f-15 reskins... How did you come up with us not having enough American jets? We barely have any Russian aircraft.

    2. UUHHH.. DUUH... I'm MICHAEL.. I have half a brain. I can't see THE Fu**ing OBRIOUS right in front of my VERY nearsighted, ugly face!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      I SAID THAT MOST OF THE PLANES IN THIS GAME WERE AMERICAN, I ONLY STATED THAT WE NEED MORE USAF SKIK DESIGNS. SKIN DESIGNS, Do you hear me?1? SKIN DESIGNS!!! you Nimrod.

      I don't think we need another F-15, but it IS a very cool plane.

      BTW, anonymous, their IS a plane with a US flag motif, it's call the AF-Y4 Saratoga.

      Heck, almost all planes are US.

    3. Typical fanboy who just can't read.
      There are only 3 sentences and yet MICH@EL you managed to miss it.
      If you want to bring up something against others at least bother yourself to read people's argument.
      Funny to see you repeat the thing somebody just said and thought its you own clever view. Get a clue.

    4. ^indeed, I am very stupid. I'll admit that much. Hey, be you aren't perfect- if anything, maybe you should improve your grammar skills...

      ________________________________

      UHH I'M ACE OFF WAR. I HAVE NO GRAMMAR SKILLS. BUT ANYWAY, WHO KARES ABOUT GRAMMAR... RIGHT- WAT ME MEAN IS THAT MOST AIRCRAFT IN GAME ARE AMERICAN, AND THAT MOST AIRCRAFT HAVE RUSSIAN ROUNDELS. HOWEVER, I CANNOT NAME A SINGLE ONE THAT MEETS THE CRITERIA OF BEING AMERICAN, AND HAVING RUSSIAN ROUNDELS. THAT IS BECAUSE I AM CONFFUSSED. WHAT DOES THE BIGG WORD, "MOST"', MeAN!? THAT MAKES SENSE RIGHT? Me no sure!!! NO LOGIC OR MATH SKILLS- U SEE, ME AMERICAN


      Seriously though, name one aircraft that is both American, and has Russian roundels..."most"????

      Delete
    5. I was talking about the planes in SGAS!
      All the American built planes in SGAS have no American roundels, while the Russian planes all have the Russian roundels.
      RFU-27; RFSG; RFMG31; RFT100; RFU37; RFU47; RFT50 (MSWM's very own spectre). That is alot of planes if you ask me.
      And the only one with an American rounderl? The RF15X. It has a little white star on the wing.

      'Just like in SGAS (where) most planes have Russian Roundels...
      most planes is an overstatement. PEOPLE EXAGERATE!!!! GET IT!

      PEOPLE ALSO MAKE MISTAKES. OH, AND IT WAS A SPELLING MISTAKE, NOT GRAMMER! OBRIOUS/OBVIOUS.

      Oh, and can you tell me off the top of your head what the first/second laws of Thermodynamics are? I can. And yur probably older than me. (an adult with no life, or social skills)

      I'm very good at logic. I just misspoke. It happens.
      Some Americans are very smart. Just some of us dont give a care about school, and fail. While the rest of us try to succeed.

      So, f*** your anti Western principles, and start getting your facts strait.

    6. Michael, if you are below 20 I suggest you to grow up and if you are above I suggest you to get a life.

      Delete
    7. Way to go, Michael.
      Pathetic ego-massaging fanatics like yourself quickly classify people into little groups, like "Americans" or "non-Chinese", soo that you can ignore arguments from people -- for they are all biased and not valid.
      You can be that very last "non-American Chinese" all you want. I be you always feel very good about yourself and your deeds justify.
      You learned so little from the Chinese culture. ROFL

    9. Such bigotry among so many! Unfortunate is the fact that nearly every comment thread residing within this blog contains at least one flame war, such as this one. If only this type of discussion could be discontinued, or at least moved elsewhere...

  9. Anyone know what happened to the "Warrior" plane that was leaked? Does anyone have an image? (that works)?

    2. That's not the Warrior. That is the Firefly which was in the files but due to unknown circumstances, has not been released.

  10. On those 12 skins my favorite one is the top left and my 2nd is top right

  11. To me the snake skin is last because I can't Imagen myself flying a snake skin plane a versus match and secondly me and Grimreaper nearly can't stand each other.

    1. How the **** does ANYONE vote for such an ugly plane!
      I mean fer cryin out loud! I'd vote for the pink one befor I voted for that rattling PIECE OF CRAP!!!
      I personally like the white one, with the black wings, and designs

      Delete
    2. I'll tell you. The person who made the Rattlefang design used an autolike program to get more likes for his design. That was how he won. Lugg(MetalStorm Forever)does not seem to understand this simple explanation. I witnessed it myself.

    3. And that's why I no longer play MSWM.
      I can make the skin of my aircraft look like whatever I want it to in SGAS.
      + I only have to pay about a dime for a personalized skin design, on an aircraft that I unlock FOR FREE!!!

      If you play SGAS, and want to fight me, I'm a Lt. Colonel.

    4. If don't mind me asking what's SGAS?

  15. Green Eagle is nearly understructable but when it comes to coin missiles it's a whole new story. You can kill GE very easily! What is the freaking point?' 90% of players these days use Coin missiles!!!

    Hey, Z2! Give him game-ruining GE of mine to him. Give him unlimited coin missiles and shut him up. Release atomic bomb killing the opponent (and the user itself) with single touch of a botton, which will ruin this game.
    Hey, pilots. Bankrupt Z2 (arms trader, MetalStorm Limited) with new missiles.

    1. I hope they are finally spending some time fixing bugs and making new campaign missions instead of making new planes that seem to be better than the previous one.
