Id say stuff like this should be.. or could be a new citadel upgrade Say at rank 4ish you can buy... tower freeze.. (awesome name aint it :P) This would give towers a small splash radius in which they get slowed a certain % Or upgrades for additional towers. These things could be pretty costy.. Though that might make it rather useless Anyway , i wouldnt mind some kind of a "fix" in this. I know alot ends up depending on pers
Ceeshond
And the only complaints about "teamwork" that i see on the forums, are the ones about "hidden" premade teams posing as a random group, just to trash noobs
Its pretty common in the competative scene to abuse every bug till fixed to rake in the ranks. Personally i often end up short for the bishops when i remember to get them so i do end up with the high priests at times :p
Sounds like an excellent plan really. If you can specify what friends you want to try and match up with.. . My question from.. somewhere else remains. Will there be seperate "random pug" rankings and group rankings ? Because i have a feeling the two wont really be compareble when it comes to skill level and all that... Pugs tend to screw you over, while a quiter/whiner/feeder/crystal camping reg are less likely in premade groups
[quote who="Primal Zed" reply="24" id="2307965"] anyone quitting should lose favor for their pantheon quitters never win and all that.. What about honest disconnects, or if someone simply has to go because something else came up?[/quote] Honest DC... tough luck If you "have" to go, well thats to bad, but so what ? you are losing the game for your entire team. Dont play a game when you have to eat in 10 minutes (had this happen to teammates way to often
I was in a game once with my team against 2 regulus and an oak.. well... It was a pain i`ll tell you... It was an all random match, and our team was decently ballanced.. i believe with an oak, a sedna and a TB. The other team all agreed on taking that item that can shoot that lightning anywhere on the map... And theres just nothing like having 3 of those land on your head followed by 2 snipes at long range. They can drop you at half health. Pretty sure they were on a vo
Good question... I ve had to explain atleast 3 people what a cap lock was just yesterday, and half the guys would engage a 2v1 even at 500 hp
for one.. penitence or whatever its called is a ranged skill with more then 1 function... Its a interupt not a stun, it does damage, it slows the other player and i believe it also removes some armor. quite a nice list. While erebus' skill is an actuall stun. it stuns everybody, making them unable to take any action for what ? 3 seconds at max rank or something... Its only at lvl 15 that it gets a cooldown increaser on top of it
Id love a better ranking system.. be it by just excluding customs, or anything else. I`ll admit i didnt read ALL the posts in here... but couldnt you make a "solo" rank for just joining a skirmish/panth and a "premade" rank? Because.. I dont have alot of people to play with. In al honesty i only have one friend that i can play with. Should my ranking mean less, and be viewed on as a lousy player just because im pretty much stuck with PUGS, somehow always ending up on th
unless said TB is changing for the passive boosts :p
Small problem with showing ranks and or win/loss rations in lobbys ... I wouldnt get into a single game =p Not that i suck, but i tend to find myself with these self proclaimed "pro" players in no noob games and end up losing badly ... having my 2 teammates having fed the other team about 20 kills by the end of the game while im at 1 or 2 deaths. Believe me, i have this alot. So id end up having a terrible win/loss ratio (its still near 50% atm so
If you had any intention of helping out a thread, and just spend a second or two to sound civil i might even feel you could be right. The problem is that you seem overly pissed about a thread that you could just not click on and be done with it. I know the name doesnt always matter. All i asked in my post was commen honesty when i ask a guy if his group is a premade. If answering a question, one only asked to ensure a fun and fair game, is to much to ask then i guess on
[quote]Oh yeah, i LOVE bashing newbs. It's my favorite thing to do, wait 24 minutes to start a game and concede by level 6. Sounds like fun right? Stop being a freaking retard ffs. Jump to all the conclusions you want without any evidence, the bottom line is game titles mean nothing and theres no point to this stupid overdone thread that only encourages me to waste more of my time.[/quote] I never asumed YOU did. My entire post circled around the fact that if you wanted
Im not asking to be spoonfed info whenever i join. If i happen to be vs a semi premade or some pro and i lose horribly, then thats just bad luck. Personally id prefer if all games had some info in the name (which takes like 1 second, and saves you countless dissconects because people dont like being hammered by a pro premade 2 minutes ingame) I join alot of names which have no obvious name, andi take whatever i find in there. I dont rage quit and i simply try to d
I was just in a game.. well twice ( the second time i knew who i was up against tho) with a premade.. Thing is.. in the lobby they made a fuss about having a guy in their team.. so obviously they knew eachother. We asked if they were a premade. Their answer was "No, we are just friends" .. Well fine... lets just see how it turns out. My team played badly. i died early myself (only death in the game tho) and others in my team died a
They could add an option for the "winning" team, that when a game is conceded they can choose to end the game or finish vs ai. It wouldnt really be the same but atleast you can have your final push. Removing it isnt a good idea though.. Plenty of times have i been in a team with 1 or 2 feeders, making the other team have a 4 lvl advantage and 10+ kills on their name while we have 0 (due to lack of teamwork on our side). In this situation you are p
[quote]h when you lose a game automatically and waste 20 minutes because some random person decided he was "pro". [/quote] I am sure this would suck but.. There is no single way to tell if you are a beginner, experienced or a pro... There are noob games that i join and i get beat up so badly it makes my eyes water.. There are noob games that i join and i couldve won in a 3V1 because they were really in their very first game There a
Hehe some real nice storys here. Im pretty new myself .... as ive just recently got my connection going so i can play online. Played 6 games online so far. all 3 V 3 and i lost all of them... But i am pretty sure i wasnt the cause... The 15 deaths UB in my last match, who thinks escaping at 200 hp from a sniper(there were 2) reg is an awesome plan because he has a wand of speed The tower rook who had a
In reply to Makerz first post... If i had a available Provider near me who would have such a high upload speed i would switch in an instant. Sadly i have the fastest one available where i live. So "upgrading" to a better connection isnt going to happen sadly. About "other" games i was talking about other p2p games. Im not sure which one these would include, but i am pretty sure supreme commander was a P2P game and i had 0 issues with it... p
[quote who="Kitkun" reply="3" id="2234493"]Your speed should work just fine. My speed test is lower than yours, yet I can play 4v4 without a problem. [/quote] Thats what i am hoping.. I have little ways of increasing my upload as i dont have a provider with a higher on in my area. And again, i have played 3 games with little to no lag But sadly this will bring the problem closer to my own computer.. maybe i need a new
the .86 is a speedtest result needing 256 up is kinda rediculous compared to any other game i know :/ why does this game need so much more then supcom when you have up to 8 controllable units in this game (ok and some minions) While you can go up to 8K units walkinga bout in supcom :/ I guess im doomed to play 1V1s then. even 2V2 tend to lag. Kinda shitty imo
Ive posted this more often, in different threads but im just kinda pissed at how i cant play this game normally. The problem, as the title would have you know, is my ping. In lobby it might sit at a nice 40-100 ping which is nice and playable... Once i get into a game it shoots up to 1000+, making me piss off every person currently trying to play. My connection is stable, my ping in other online games hardly ever exceeds 50 (EU based atleast. might reach a 100 i
While making the playing experience worse for those who WERE able to play is a bad thing, keep in mind theres a ton of people who cant even connect to a game, or get in a game and spike up to 1K+ pings.
Does Supreme commander use P2P aswell i wonder ? Because i have been able to connect to max player games there without a problem (whats that.. 8 people?) and i get issues with a 3V3 in here
If you find the graphics in Fallout better then in Oblivion, something is wrong with your graphics card imo
