Post 3 things you don't like in 0.4.x release!
« on: January 07, 2011, 01:07:25 PM »
As in topic: 3 things you don't like in 0.4.x release!
It's been roughly one and a half a week since initial 0.4.0 release, so we've all managed to get familiar with all the new features and initial "wow" cooled down. So now it's time to show devs what's you don't like in new release, you may tell why not, or you can just type the list. Tell what you don't like or what you think should be further improved. :)

List only, no discussion, opinions on something you stated or suggestions please! For talks we have many other topics.
Here's just list of things you don't like in 0.4.0-0.4.3 releases!

Remember also to post things you like!

TC Game mode needs auto balance mechanism

MRM's, SRM's and Narc's got nerfed badly in different ways.

Sound bugs....they were nearly gone...now they are back(0.4.3)




Sure it felt different but so did my wife after the kids were born. A little loose but it still gets me off every time. -- Suspect

  • Some of new variants - "two-these, two-that, no overheating" logic kills game fun with them :-\
  • No added effects to Heavy Lasers as they used to have in BTU - they should interfere with sensors... without it I have constant feeling about them being overpowered ~_~
  • Lack of Epona - I love this Hover soooo damn much, pity that it didn't make it for 0.4.0 :( but it's worth every single second of waiting

- don´t like the Feature, that ASF´s only can be repaired in Hangar (as example, its hard to land with an ASF in Hangar on Kagoshima)

- no Tickets, when capture an Outpost in TC Mode

- starting credits given with ranks (in my opinion, it could be a bit more)

Haha wait wait wait, I know you said no discussion but I have to bring up this point. This is planned, and more or less will be something you implement SkyWalker  ;D How can you pick it out as a complaint of 0.4?

Naaah... :( You spoiled the surprise! :( Ok ok, I complained about it because I couldn't find anything else to complain about, and this is a feature I'm really missing ATM.
Ok, no more discussions. :-X

1. LARGE LASER BASE TURRETS in TC mode. In the beginning of a match where all thats running around are lights, hovers, and maybe hawkmoths these are wayyyyy too powerful. Whoever rushes out and caps a base with one, Mirage middle base for example which has 3 large laser turrets, is basically guaranteed to hold that base until at least heavy mechs are on the field as long as there is something simple defending it like a ba or even a hover craft. I can't tell you how frustrating it is to engage an enemy/group of enemies near one of those bases and take MORE damage from the freaking hyper accurate turrets which nearly always hit CT armor than the enemy mechs.

2. SRM bug. It makes adjusting your srm shots nearly impossible cause the missiles just disappear or freeze in mid air after firing them so all you have to go on is a hit sound.

3. Definitely having to actually be inside the aircraft hangar to repair your jet. I mean come on. A shiva is hard enough to land let alone fit in the hangar and then even if you do get it in the hangar you have to try and turn it around without killing yourself to fly out. I know for me personally it's gotten to the point where I dont even bother trying anymore and just fly till I die.

The anticipation and the wait that we have to endure waiting for which Clan assault (Warhawk) will be (Warhawk) next (Warhawk Warhawk WarhawkWarhawkWarhawk!!!!!)

Tank driving in Kagoshima

Many bugs which make the game less smooth than it was before 0.4 (Do not worry Devs, this is not a complaint and I know all will be good. I am a patient man and will be playing for a long time to come :D )

Why 3 only here and in the lovethread 5?
But because i dont want to make 2 posts,i'll put 6 in one.

1. game crashes about all 5 minutes,sometimes it works about 15 minutes  :o (on 0.3.X i could play about an hour before crash and on 0.2.X it was almost a day without crashing).
2. respawntimer...30 sec. too boring
3. prices for mechs and the way u rank up,forces to beg for money. Makes sense when play as clan but in public the games have to get faster instead of more boring.
4. new weapons implemented...for what for? To get the mod look more colorful? I mean come on,purple laser???? Whats next,throwing around with cotton?
5. flamer do too much damage and not enough heat
6. tc game mode...not finished yet,so why its implemented? Once the teams r unbalanced its only frustrating.

no brain,no pain

1. The new turning.

2. Servers that still run TSA maps. I'm not bored of TC yet!

3. Tanks are overpowered as base defenders...not that worried about this just can't think of a third.

Mirage middle base for example which has 3 large laser turrets
Sorry quick correction required here.. Mirage has 2 LL turrets(Hellgivers) in each of the 2 off ctr bases, tuned to limit their arcs of fire to specific places.

1. Don't like the new cbill/rank system. Stuck in light /crap medium mechs almost an entire match.
2. ROFLSTOMPING.
3. Still crashing to desktop (could be hardware/windows version/drivers...)

Well, the thing that bugs me the most is that I have to beg for cash.
I really don't like not being able to play around with some of the more expensive mechs.
