Alduroth1984 Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 I feel this is going to be a great change, there really shouldn't ever be something like this in a game anyways. Having several high-tier bred stegos, soaking up bullets, completely just makes turrets in general pointless. It was like the flier nerf, which sucked yes, but was a good change, since fliers where so widely used in raids/pvp. If anyone is to blame for this nerf, it's the people who abused it.

wasser510 Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 Balancing a sandbox game is really hard since there are so many possible ways to attack/defend and there will allways be a weak spot in a defense or a way to raid a base. And the bigger Tribe most likely allways wins in the end, with nerfes and without. But nerfing soakers is good step into helping medium size Tribes to defend but they still never stand a chance against an alpha/mega. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. You wanna raid? Bring more dinos. It shouldnt be a risk free thing to do. To quote Zapp Branigan: He knows the new bullet soaking meta.

They have their work cut out for them trying to please a disapproving playerbase while the vocal minority screeches at every little change. *screeches* *rocks violently* People screeched for improvements on lag. Wildcard investigated and found that turrets were causing WAY too much lag, so they put in a turret cap. People screeched that they'd never be able to protect their bases from a raid with only 100 turrets because all someone needed was a few OP stegos. Now people are screeching because their OP drain-stegos are getting rebalanced to match to the turret cap so it takes more than a few OP stegos to raid a base. What must it be like to live in a world of perpetual outrage? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does make me laugh that some of the people that screeched the loudest, feel hard done by because their requests have gone fulfilled, but not in the way they liked or thought would happen. Welcome to the cruel world of balancing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
