badosu

I am confused by this replay, the map is balanced mainland instead of lake?

I mean, dancing is lame yeah. Especially if it's just a hero on front and patrol, it's low skills for high reward. You can't just simply spread your fire unless your units are all surrounding the opponent and just moving your units into that position would make you take a lot of fire until then, only solution would be to also dance, which would make it even lamer. Now, dancing without patrol, a little less lame yeah, still super lame. I saw today JC doing dance on a fight against a 3x higher army and he won that one lel. Zig zagging is fine, a little abuse but fine I guess, moving hurt units out of danger, super fine and encouraged. It's hard to solve this problem, there are several (technical) solutions in discussion for a24, 0ad includes ballistics by default (predict unit movement for ranged attacks) which accentuates this problem which will be adjustable, acceleration/deacceleration on direction change, etc. None of which actually seems like a suitable fix at the moment, but apparently this is a high priority fix for a24, hopefully we can get there. By the way, flee instance on hero and a-move has the unintended effect of 'dancing' too, which I have been accused of often, it seems the 'good practice' is stand-ground now.

Yes, it's dependent on zoom and angle.

I reached superposition and he should be free to play today, @RolandSC2 @bubblebut @LeGenDz?

I have the same issue occasionally and I'm not sure it's related to mods, it's not only fields and bolts, but also mines etc... They use a different texture than their own. It started after I updated my graphics driver if I am not mistaken

I removed the stream and edited into a new video, it's the same as nani

Maybe we can play tomorrow (saturday)? We'll be available

Superposition mentioned he can anytime tomorrow, @RolandSC2 missing now.

I won't play 2v2, we already did that, it's pointless. Other members can play if they want

Team eae scheduling you can find above, we are waiting on superposition and roland

Ok so: borg - ok any day after 10 pm utc, except wed legendz - ok any day after 9 pm utc badosu - ok any day after 9pm utc stockie - ok any day after 8 pm utc, before 12 am utc vicentesk - ok any day after 8 pm utc

I'll be frank, I don't agree that teams can make 2v2, 3v3 as valid game. I'll play by the rules tho.

This post is to schedule match between eae and op team, we can any day of the week after 10 pm UTC, except wednesdays @LeGenDz @bubblebut @RolandSC2 @borg- @Stockfish @Vicentesk (couldnt find superposition)

@Wendy22 U forgot: Badosu - 11

I am wanting to make a 0ad version of this map after I finish slopes: I think it would be nice for a 0ad map with ramp mechanics.

@eae protip: avoid engaging

What's a bye week?

To be honest, I just want to see if Los Gringos beats Vali team :-). Yeah, balancing rules must be made before teammaking for sure.

Yes, 0.5 difference is dramatic currently. Reason being that < 6 rating becomes a bit meaningless. Renormalizing the current ratings so that 0-1 (cosmic), 2-4 (decent), 5-7 (good), 7-9 (very good), 9-10 (op) would make it more readable.

As much as I would like to see a 'next' version, changing stuff now would be disrespectful to the time everyone invested already in scheduling, practice and teammaking. The rating idea is good, we could even request for ratings a month or weeks before the next tournament and then balance accordingly (e.g. max 30 points per team or some other number)

You were wrong, I don't advocate 'cheating' mods. I think that some mods provide useful functionality to improve quality of life, I also agree that there's a threshold not to be surpassed on that end, where auto assigning units to temple being right at the edge. That's just it. No need to dramatize a reasonable opinion. I won't engage any further on this end anyways.

Are you capable of reasoning without fictionalized ad hominems? It encourages me to think lesser of you. Watch any competitive RTS, some tactics might be deemed lame sure (and they probably are), still players do whatever in their reach to win. Would we be in a better state without dancing? I'd think so, yes. I also think people cry too much.

lul, k

And that's from someone that never dances (except for hero flee stance, just cause nub to micro tho xD)
