1) They are not rip offs. It is called contributions. If a map is made carrying over those ideas and stats, then that is not a rip off but used feedback for testing. (Which you have not tested) 3) It is not one base gameplay due to the cheaper MCVs as suggested before. (Yet again, which you have not...

Most changes are either ripped of in the wrong way from our balance map or not even properly taken over. Boring try to change the meta with some small changes wont do anything to rescue TD. If Im ever gonna play TD again Im gonna play it on Mesacers map. Your modmaps are boring AoA and lead into mo...

Yea ongoing problem. I always did changes backwards but had people prefer to have it worded differently. So my brain will sometimes refer to the method I understand and without realizing it compared to what others read so I miss it sometimes. Its why the poat had an edit already

I have uploaded a few maps with the following changes: Test changes for future balance. Apache damage vs infantry at prone increased from 50 percent to 80 percent. MCV Price from 4000 to 3500. Repair Pad decrease power from -30 to -20. APC turn speed from 8 to 7. APC build duration from 900 to 938. ...

That is correct light vehicle husks -_- my bad Also, managed to get the crushing trait working with APCs (Thanks abcdefg30! :D ). However, they are unable to be tested in the release version as its only available in the bleed version. Gonna work on some possible tests conclusions for it and I think ...

A few changes that currently look good to keep in: Power changes on structures: Refinery power reduced from 50 to 40. Airstrip/War factory power reduced from 50 to 40. This promotes some of the older build styles while still fixing the large quantity of factory builds. Been promising in the early ga...

Was there a reason Shockies keep the 1000 damage vs none armor types in compared to RA95 damage types vs none?

The few games I had with Mesacer (SP) has been interesting but need more games over all. If anyone has had games with the mod maps provided send the replays in this forum or to me on Discord. So far the only thing I can say is the light vehicle husks change (Which I think was introduced by Voidwalke...

@Inq, Suggesting your idea about re-arming, the APC can be given a burst shot fire with a set reload timer in between the burst shots if that is a path to explore. (Though I can test that personally with a few quick games) I was actually referring to Orb's comment about Orca spam, the spam not bein...

Seeing the response about the quad canon APC I did a fun test where I took the APC canon turning it into a 4 shot burst with inaccuracy. The result is rather amusing to watch. It made them miss a lot more from their furthest range until the aircraft flew closer where the shots landed more hits. With...

A mammoth replaces a medium tank, a chem troop replaces a flame troop. I don't think there is something inherently wrong with higher tech replacing lower tech units as long as the price is appropriate. Nothing wrong with some units replacing other units. But the chem doesn't replace the flamethrowe...

Problem with having the APC with the machine gun is it replaced the role of the hummer. In the games tested, only a few hummers were built and then APCs replaced them. A topic was posted regarding this before so I will copy paste here: "In the games I had seen prior there were still a lot of APCs ro...

1) not so much. It was about getting buggies/bikes as soon as possible to start herassing. Only on extremely larger maps or much smaller maps were they bad ideas. 2) It didn't always force early rax. There are still games happening where people open with factories. In cases though the other player o...

@Gdave, While it was the standard build order it was pretty well the only good build order in many cases. Very common you would have airstrip/factory openers and getting harvesters out quickly. Barrack openers were rare because of the use of the vehicles. (Not just light tanks. It involved the old s...

This post is going to be a bit long so try and hold on. I will break it down as best as possible to make reading easy. --====+++====-- @Anjew, If it is true that you had brought this up to me then I apologize. The past quote you mentioned is true actually. They are only a problem in numbers. The APC...
