-1 gen for each whine post
instead of gen 90 we'd have gen -90
This would be great, I support this.
I myself am not going to do a whine post until a solid two weeks have past, so I can actually see how everything interacts and how the community adapts.
Honestly things seem ok at this point. Yeah, my archer can not punk cav anymore by whipping a pike out at the last second, but honestly, this makes me value the friendly pikemen more. I have a lot of fond memories of being paired with one or two guys and protecting each other in battle, and this patch just rewards it.
The only thing I hate has nothing to do with game balance, and that is the idiotic ten second rule and leech poles, but I can see, to be faie, how that was implemented To experiment with. A nice try...
So everyone just shush, and see how the new battles go. Yeah, you may have been nerfed in a place, but so was everyone else. Gameplay takes precedence over your favorite gizmo. I love that I built a character off of a concept, and all of my alts too. I never have to worry about me heirlooming an op thing only to find it is no longer op after a patch, for I mainly just play for fun and not to exploit Gizmo X hackmaster nine thousand and make a build out of it.
You all wanted a rebalance, so here it is. chadz finally released a patch so be happy. The best thing we can do right now is play for a while and explore the new battle dynamics, see how everything interacts and explore new synergies, then offer constructive feed back with possible solutions on any bugs, glitches, or broken gameplay features to chadz and the devs.
TLDR version: Shut up and play.
