Patch 3732 - 3735

Rodimus_Prime

I started hosting the Dev. version a few days ago, and the auto-balance features with rating display are amazing beyond words. My lobbies average 1k, so I can't speak to gameplay balance, but I did feel like the Swiftwind was substantially downgraded, though I didn't see anything about it in the patch notes. Regardless, all the little details are amazing, looking forward to the roll out.

Do you have a replay of the swiftwind feeling weaker?

Looking through my replays, just the one is Dev. version. The others are regular, which definitely colored my impression. Coupled with still learning my air game (bad turns, overestimating the unit), I'm going to chalk this up to 'jumping the gun'. I will make a point of noting stuff as I play, rather than sitting on it for a week+ (so busy playing that I hadn't even thought of feedback as I go).

@immortal-d it's not 5 vs 10, it's 5 swifties vs 20 inties xd. Also the turn you did made the swifties not shoot well at all so, swifties arent weaker. But dont worry! You'll learn with practice!

Swiftwinds have always lost to mass equivalent value in ints.

Is there a reason why reclaim doesn't die to splash damage anymore?

Hi. Don't know if this bug has to do with this patch but my first game on the new patch had an instance where bricks didn't fire at t1 units in range because there were some pillars just outside their range.

@chenbro101 I think I remember seeing my T2 PDF (seraphim) not attacking enemy metal extractors. Maybe this could be related?

Jip

If a target is right outside of a unit it can prepare to fire at that unit. This is a scanning radius. It is balance related to change that.

Released another fix - game version 3735. See the second post of this topic for the changelog.

~~Wasn't the general problem that e-dependent buildings continue to use 100% e even when they are not working because of a stall? Which is completely different from how mass works?~~

Would it be possible to disable a building when it stalls and start a timer, so after like 5 seconds it tries to turn itself on again (and you cannot turn it on sooner)? This would still punish you for uncontrolled e stall, but it would punish continued stall less than before and it would make mass-fabs auto-balanced by getting deactivated randomly.

I think you're responding in the wrong topic .

Was it also intended for a "boosted" shield to show an inaccurate bar of it's shield hp?
