Ryz Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Wow RypeL did some good work on the C4 spotting AND noting which units are spotted. Overall changes look very promising. Good work Yosh! You say that there will be (probably) another patch soon after this. Can we expect maps to be added. I am currently moving from one home to another, but if there are maps that need to be tested and there is a solid date / moment when this will happen than I am ready to help out (if I can make it again). Same goes for spotting 'soft boundaries' errors, or kills by water on Whiteout! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoundShades Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Can I add before I say anything else, that 8 bullets and not hitscan, really brings down the use of "Marksman"? Could it be one or the other, ty? I would even prefer 8 bullets and hitscan even if headshot multiplier was fiddled with to keep it from being 4 hit kill on most infantry. + Q-spotting messages have been updated to include Unit type, and allow spotting of C4 That was fast, and is in fact a miracle. Hallelujah and Excelsior and all that good shit. + Fixed EVA not giving 'Building Under Attack' messages when a building had under ~10% HEALTH Are... Are you telling us you set it for "HEALTH" at 10% and not "ARMOR" at 10% last time? That makes a lot of sense, thanks for taking the time to proofread the code and figuring that out, last time I made a game mod I made a typo it took me 7 versions to discover. + LCG: Footsteps made louder/heavier Sorry, but I have to ask, does it sound like the Power Armor from Fallout 4?

If we added them to patches, we could test them post-PUGs, and figure out what could make them worthy to add to the rotation. That is, if the community actually puts forth the effort to play them, otherwise there is no knowing if the map is playable or how to make it playable.

Totem Arts Staff yosh56 Posted January 11, 2016 Author Totem Arts Staff Share Posted January 11, 2016 Not trying to make this patch any larger than it has to be, so no new maps for now. Will work on that afterward I guess. CNC snow is ready for release, why not patch it in already? I was able to break Snow in about 5 minutes.

I couldn't PM it to you, sent it to Ruud a couple of days ago. Can you private message me the issues with the map? Edit: I see the snow release topic now I'll check it out when my class is over.

Axesor Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 I am not happy with 50% of this... Mainly I would like to mention about rep tool that is nerfed too much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djlaptop Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 All these changes sound great except the nerf of the repair tool. Sounds like it won't have enough juice to take over a silo without a recharge. One request I've been wanting to make was to change the speed-boost crate. In the last patch it was nerfed to add 5% speed by default, when I actually think it could have been buffed to add 15%. Sure, you'll get the occasional player that cratewhores to get super-speed, but that can be counteracted by reducing the speed-crate likelihood, and you can also make the argument that if you're able to cratewhore without dying, you deserve your spoils.

It need to either be 7.5 or 10, and actually have a built in limit. If the crate recognizes your player speed has already gotten a crate or already reached 120 then it simply doesn't roll you the odds of getting a speed crate. 5%, is nearly unnoticable unless you get 2, and HAVING to have 2 for effect is bad design just to limit it's stacking, when you could just limit it's stacking.

That is, if the community actually puts forth the effort to play them, otherwise there is no knowing if the map is playable or how to make it playable. I've suggested many times to make a group of people willing to test the maps. Could be like twice a week at a specific time like the pug and play/test them but... there's always a big % of the people that say they want to test but only show up like 1 or 2 times (like the testing of beta 4).

After this patch is out of the way, we're mostly just focused on content and bug fixes, so I'm down to start testing maps after PUGs. We just need to make a master topic to plan what maps we're going to test and what-not. I'll have B0ng make sure they're on the server, and everyone who's going to test can just look at the topic to see what we're testing that week.

If we come up with a CLEAR time / moment I will be there just as with the PUG. Main issue is that there is a testing day 'sunday afternoon' and when I check the launcher I don't see anyone there. This is what we need (can be moved to a special topic if needed): Day and time + timezone Server to join Link to resources List of things a map maker wants to be tested / has changed Teamspeak channel where we will hangout I can't make it every time, but I will do my utmost as I did with the Beta4 testing to be there when I say I am there. Edit: just noticed Yosh' post for testing the maps after the PUG. This is highly inconveniënt for me, but I think it will be good time for most of the players. Please remember that players / map makers like Henk & Ruud are also Netherlands based and that they might have other social plans (aka getting wasted) on a saturdaynight after the PUG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canucck Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 I think you should unslow anything you slowed in the last patch. Having some characters be faster is all fine and good, but nothing should have been slowed down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bananas Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 Agreed that most of the slower characters feel really bad to play. A better way might be make sprint into an actual sprint. Not hold this button down forever. Up the base movement speed across the board, maybe raise sprint speed slightly, then lower the sprint time drastically to like 4 seconds total or less. Then if you want to mess with movements you can do a lot of it through sprint. Super heavy character has no sprint...fast character has 8 seconds..blah blah. I think it would feel better. I always thought the game felt better after getting one speed crate anyways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkSchnayder Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 I can barely make it to the PUGs, so afterwards would be bad for me but I think we could schedule something like 1 hour before and after the PUG. So more people could attend. Also a sunday session sounds really good to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
