Asahammer Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 I've noticed a tendency of Renegade X games to be unresolvable many times. Things seem to turn out one of two ways: Either one team gains a decisive advantage early on and there is nothing the other team can do to turn back the enemy's inevitable win, or both teams are able to replace their front lines as fast as the enemy can destroy them. I just got off a server after playing for what must have been at least an hour doing the exact same thing the whole time. The front never changed, nor did it move. The exact same fight, in the exact same spot, on and on and ON AND ON with no end. Something has got to be done to change that. I really don't know what, but maybe people here who know more about game design and balance can think of something. This makes the gameplay go stale very fast. -Asahammer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARC_trooper Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Attack through a different way? If one option doesn't work try another? Until you push through or get pushed back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omega79 Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 thats public gaming... i remember in classic renegade you had the same problem... BUT if you got a few regulars on the server they can develop new strategies and win even if they lost infantery and vehicle against a full base team ... people need to adapt on the gameplay a little more ... even if its an arcade shooter, sometimes you need more than just running and shooting how you describe it, it sounds like you never gathered more than 3 or 4 people to try something different together Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nuker77 Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Maybe respawn times after being killed would be an option to fix this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asahammer Posted March 27, 2014 Author Share Posted March 27, 2014 how you describe it, it sounds like you never gathered more than 3 or 4 people to try something different together It's also a fact of public gaming that the masses are asses. Most players are pretty petty and don't want to work as a team. Even if they did, it's very hard to remember to read the TINY little text-chat. If we want to have teamwork, we really need VoIP in this game. It's harder by a lot to ignore someone talking in your ear than a little piece of text in the corner of your screen. I like the idea about respawn timers. But then, too: In the game I played, the front was right in front of our base. Any attempt at slowing down the replacement of our forces would have resulted in our immediate destruction, and since the maps are relatively small, that's probably true in most cases. I think we have to find a different, more inventive solution than simply slowing down the rate at which a team can replace its battlefront. -Asahammer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
