Build 806 - Tweaks, Fixes, Mad Ballistas - POLL

Hmm. Interesting time to analyse the update for a few days.

 

Someone has read my thoughts before creating this build :p

 

​

Yus at last for me this is the best one. :3
No more spammmy spikes.

Yay! I loved the pointing back in classic, and now we can all point and laugh at the guy who gets killed by a tree. I'm holding my judgement for the gameplay changes until I've tried out the build.

edit: the builder flexing is hilarious!

 

Ok time for 1,2,3,4... thingy.

New update is very good. I love the building time and how the research tree layout.

Now Bad things

1) Skybrides still exist.
2) Sometimes spikes react on ally player ,but not hurt them.
3) Player can't research drill with a scroll.
4) walls which are blocking water is a REALY bad idea. (maybe only walls which are connected to the first spawn should protect spawn from water).


People will start doing this again.


5) Sprite bug. At the ammo supply factory 2 thins are being research at the same time (Not literally being researched but sprite shows that they do).



6) Red screen by the end of the match.


7) Ballista destroys bedrock. (NOTHING should be able to destroy bedrock).
8) Return realistic Kegs.
9) Bombs destroy stone and wood block next to them instantly.
10) If migrant gets killed inside of a factory and his body stays in the factory undestroyed the new migrant cant take his place.
I will add more, when I will find more.

 

I swear we really need to beg for old kegs now, these explosions are just ridiculous.

 

I totally agree with these points! Especially with the 4th.
[Edit:] I literally hate this update.

 

I was doing that for the past 4 build releases.
The main thing is that They are to op in term of digging tunnels. and they are absolutely useless against stone doors and stone in general.

Nothing happened.

 

Past 4 builds nobody even uses drill, primarily because mostly how inconvenient it is to research it in the first place, at least now you don't need factory to produce it, just the workbench with 100 stone as the cost, I don't get why not split it 50s and 50w.

 

Not drills. Kegs. And now you need to research them.

 

You misunderstood, I simply added to your post.

I know that kegs are what people use now but drill seems simply so much better of an option and it was meant for digging, especially when you carry it now it fits 1x1 slot unlike keg that is 4x4, so you can protect yourself with the shield and take out the drill to destroy doors or walls, not to mention you can carry a lot of extra stuff with you.

 

Coincidence? I think not.



You have some explaining to do.

 

it looks more like this picture to me.

 

Ok stop spam. This thread is not for that.
And yes drills should dig only rocks, gold and dirt .

 

I'm loving the update thus far, being able to block water with back wall provides cool manipulation of the landscape. For example flood the side of the enemy team to reach their shore, but at the same time, get rid of the water on your side so that they cant easily swim across to your side.

Also, sky-bridges only kinda exist, but in a way that makes sense with support being needed. It is not possible to make a sky-bridge without any supports from one side of the map to the other. I love this concept. We are able to make longer bridges, and increase vertical combat but still maintain some restrictions. People are inclined to build more since they can make bigger and badder stuff now.
The sky-bridges being built now make more sense than having a single 1x1 tile going across.

Spikes retracting only on stone is awesome.

Red wall from classic is also awesome. (Except at the end of the match it force pushes you across the map if your in it)

Thanks for the update, these little changes made a big impact on game play and in a positive way.

 

I want to show you a few pictures it is something like a timeline of a match which show almost every bad aspect of the update.



1) You can see how strong red team was in terms of building. Also you can see a skybridge which is max length. Sky bridge of that length is enough to get from one hall to another.( from ally base to the enemy base). All that was done during the building faze.

Spoiler: Spoiler Hint

2) When red team started winning, one blue builder decides to spam spikes on the ground. Which shows that new update spike balancing system DONE NOTHING. ( God dammit devs return old spikes or make new spikes SO expensive so people will just forget about the thought of spamming them.)

Spoiler: Spoiler Hint

3) That is a really important screen shot. It shows how big of a disbalance Between teams spikes can cerate. And Red team survived only because of good builders.

First this.

Spoiler: Spoiler Hint

Then this.

Spoiler: Spoiler Hint

And this.

Spoiler: Spoiler Hint

Because red team could not get past this god damm spike field they started to make skybriges.

Spoiler: Spoiler Hint

4) Now we can see how some bugs make it difficult to kill people.
Just look how many arrows are in these doors. ( some of them already despawned)

Spoiler: Spoiler Hint

Towers like That are annoying, because you cant burn them.

Spoiler: Spoiler Hint

This match never ended. Server crashed.
