Yet another balance proposal.
Re: Yet another balance proposal.
Yesterday, I started a game whit advanced bases. At 6:00, 6 MG borgs came to my base and destroyed 3/4 of the base in 1 minute...
There wasn't any defence and the tanks were far away...

The enemy chose a mg rush, you chose an opening that doesn't counter that, you lost. Embrace the randomness of 3.1 .Giani wrote:Yesterday, I started a game whit advanced bases. At 6:00, 6 MG borgs came to my base and destroyed 3/4 of the base in 1 minute...

Heretic 2.3 improver and proud of it.
Re: Yet another balance proposal.
The problems isn't the weapons line I choosed, because my tanks were far away. And 2.3.9 has more randomness. 3.1 has randomness if you don't get used to use sensors for scouting...Iluvalar wrote: The enemy chose a mg rush, you chose an opening that doesn't counter that, you lost.

And 6 cyborgs destroying a base in 1 minute isn't "normal".

cyborgs was not changed from 2.3. you choosed wrong threadGiani wrote: And 6 cyborgs destroying a base in 1 minute isn't "normal".
and its normal..you have to use hover tanks or use walls on your base
anti-cyborg weapons was nerfed but not so much
Re: Yet another balance proposal.
Actually... the accuracy bug is making the machine gun probably hit 100% instead of the 50% expected on big structures. As long as the structure is more than 1.52 tiles wide.

You can't afford sensors on the 6th minute of the game either.if you don't get used to use sensors for scouting...

Well you know, we have cartoonish scales...

Anyway, the stats files say that the accuracy of those cyborgs at full range is 50% . The game was balanced for years on that information.

i dont see people whose balanced game in years... we dont have person which can say what was expected with 50%Iluvalar wrote: Anyway, the stats files say that the accuracy of those cyborgs at full range is 50% . The game was balanced for years on that information.
i believe in developers who said that balance was impossible in 2.3 due to different frameratec etc.

i just don't know who balanced game for years and how good they were
Re: Yet another balance proposal.
They were pretty good. Seriously good.
I think it was Zarel who made most of the balance recently, in the "previous generation" of this community; this included splitting cannons and rockets into different damage classes (AR and AT, cannons are AT in campaign and original balance) etc.
I'm sure i saw a complete changelog/history of wz balance somewhere there, but i can't find it now.

ok they was good, but..
1) i dont like certain things in "classic" MP balance
some of them:
- weak wheeled propulsion (whyyy??)
- weak tracked propulsion (due to slowness, but yes depend on map and teams)
- heavy MG tower aviable from start (i guess old balancers just adoived balance with defensive structures, but yes depend on map)
- weak/less usable cannon hardpoints
- op inferno and op thermite bombs and other incendiary weapons
- weak defensive/turtle tactics in low oil games (except first 10 minutes, when you can turtle with mg tower)
after strong mg tower in begin of game player cannot use defenses, because he need fight enemy in 2 or more directions and manage oil derricks
- bad speed\weigth system viewtopic.php?f=42&t=9314
speed,terrain modifiers,speed upgrades - completely broken and works weird
2) old balancers never ever cared about high oil games or games on another maps than they play
**may be i'm wrong.. not sure 100%
3) old balancers never cared about T3 games
if we check T2/T3 stage we will see many weird things in stats
4) start with medium bases also was not balanced
5) i guess old balancers more worked with 1v1 games or 2v2
3v3 and 4v4 games was not balanced.. i just feel that
i know you Noqvalar guys like games as "Scissors Paper Stone"
this goal was reached by old balancers, but with what price?...
