sk1tzo2020 -> RE: May 10th, 2013 - Patch Notes - 1.5.14 (5/10/2013 18:48:57)

Good balance change :)




Baron Dante -> RE: May 10th, 2013 - Patch Notes - 1.5.14 (5/10/2013 18:51:08)

Another counter for Supp/Str builds, pretty much. This one is so easily available that no one can have an issue with those builds any more. It's just incompetence now.




Blitzex/Sr. Zeph -> RE: May 10th, 2013 - Patch Notes - 1.5.14 (5/10/2013 18:54:22)

@ Baron
It can however be used in our disadvantage, as the mercs will now be able to recover energy immediatly, instead of the needing to wait for the warm-up to end.




Noobatron x3000 -> RE: May 10th, 2013 - Patch Notes - 1.5.14 (5/10/2013 18:56:25)

^ i agree they weren't to difficult before this and this will help . Although I'm not sure incompetence is the only reason to loose when you get two of them in 2v2 and they get a few of those crits. With everyone's low hp it gets dicey.




King FrostLich -> RE: May 10th, 2013 - Patch Notes - 1.5.14 (5/10/2013 18:58:27)

Is the special repeatable for the new bot? And does it decrease damage when hitting 2 players?




Baron Dante -> RE: May 10th, 2013 - Patch Notes - 1.5.14 (5/10/2013 18:59:10)

True. However, it'll at least prevent the fastest of kills, making the speedkill less useful. Even if it doesn't directly make all these builds useless, it makes battles longer, which means they lose a main reason to be used, leading to a relative decrease in use.

Nevertheless, this finally gives me a reason to stop using that horrible build.

Not repeatable, deals 85% damage to two targets.




King FrostLich -> RE: May 10th, 2013 - Patch Notes - 1.5.14 (5/10/2013 19:02:25)

^Well, 5 focus is weak but alrighty then.




kosmo -> RE: May 10th, 2013 - Patch Notes - 1.5.14 (5/10/2013 19:04:12)

i dont like the way the bots look.

No, you can continue collecting the Master Spores to get it from Cinderella.




Baron Dante -> RE: May 10th, 2013 - Patch Notes - 1.5.14 (5/10/2013 19:05:54)

noobatron: My point wasn't that LOSING to them is incompetence. But seeing them as an overpowered build with little to no counters is. A vast, VAST majority of builds carry Regenerator (If not all). It's literally one of the most available things around.

Also 2k Achievment for them 100 Spores. Only... 23k to go till 3 Blue Stars. .-.




Xendran -> RE: May 10th, 2013 - Patch Notes - 1.5.14 (5/10/2013 19:13:12)

No cores on aux?




King FrostLich -> RE: May 10th, 2013 - Patch Notes - 1.5.14 (5/10/2013 19:14:41)

^Nope, none. Just a normal aux. The robot's animation looks epic but the ranged attack(the normal attack) is blockable so nope, I'm not buying this.




goldslayer1 -> RE: May 10th, 2013 - Patch Notes - 1.5.14 (5/10/2013 19:15:17)

i like that balance change :)

The normal attack is deflectable yes, but not blockable. The Special is neither blockable nor deflectable.




King FrostLich -> RE: May 10th, 2013 - Patch Notes - 1.5.14 (5/10/2013 19:20:42)

^ Took the words right out of my mouth. I might reconsider buying the bot instead of using Gamma Bot.




Baron Dante -> RE: May 10th, 2013 - Patch Notes - 1.5.14 (5/10/2013 19:24:01)

So against a single enemy, the bot deals 100% unblockable/deflectable damage? Or still the 85%?




Master Smasher -> RE: May 10th, 2013 - Patch Notes - 1.5.14 (5/10/2013 19:27:11)

so this bot is meant for 2v2, which I really am into so ya, I like the new bot




Dual Thrusters -> RE: May 10th, 2013 - Patch Notes - 1.5.14 (5/10/2013 19:55:38)

That bot looks so cool O_O

/farming




King FrostLich -> RE: May 10th, 2013 - Patch Notes - 1.5.14 (5/10/2013 19:56:49)

Ok so here's what I think of this update. Two bots have been released with the ability to do spreadfire as an active but one time usage so this is a normal attacking robot in 1v1 but both attacks are unblockable but only one is deflectable so this is a slightly good deal for 1v1 players.


But in 2v2, this bot isn't great with its special since it is only usable once and with focus nerfed, this bot only does good damage when raged. The generator warmup removal is great, now we can use it in case we die before turn 3.


And about the mailing system, how do we send messages to our friends? All I see are 2 messages from the devs themselves. It would be nice to have a toggle feature of having the option to receive messages from friends only, everyone or not allowed at all.


Overall, update isn't that bad. Just needs more features and options that aren't game-breaking.




goldslayer1 -> RE: May 10th, 2013 - Patch Notes - 1.5.14 (5/10/2013 20:03:38)

@king
mailing friends will come next week as they said in the design notes.




Deathknight17 -> RE: May 10th, 2013 - Patch Notes - 1.5.14 (5/10/2013 20:12:25)

Wait, so you change into the bot? lolwut




goldslayer1 -> RE: May 10th, 2013 - Patch Notes - 1.5.14 (5/10/2013 20:13:39)

@deatknight
im guessing they are going for some type of ironman 3 type of thing? where the armor just goes into the person on its own.




King FrostLich -> RE: May 10th, 2013 - Patch Notes - 1.5.14 (5/10/2013 20:14:27)

^Literally, yes. This is the first robot that lets you transform into it instead of summoning it out to hit players.
