Lion.Kanzen Posted May 11, 2021 Report Share Posted May 11, 2021 (edited) we need a list of things to come back and in bsde to see, what things are possible we will discuss in individual posts. I don't want us to get too complicated explaining. just a "wish list" based on that we proceed to discuss them one by one individually, i need to see what is common to all. an example by @Yekaterina Quote I love most part of A24, especially these: 1. Siege workshop for every civ. 2. Champions from barracks 3. Separate stable and barracks 4. Cheap and useless forts. 5. Nerfed slingers 6. More techs available 7. Macedon gets black cloak But I don't like these: 1. Rams for Maurya and Kush 2. Elephant discrimination 3. Archer changes 4. Athens and Sparta have no stoa 5. Useless and expensive mercenary 6. Rubbish catapult and oxybeles the goals... the general list of complaints will be as follows. stabilized gameplay "turtle" - link to the post. mercenary metal cost archers can kill catapults and bolt shooters too easily archer eles too cheap/powerful archers OP Links to the topics 1 2 WIP...

BreakfastBurrito_007 Posted May 11, 2021 Report Share Posted May 11, 2021 (edited) For me, and I think most players. (...) is my personal thoughts and suggestions The good slingers nerfed blacksmith upgrade applications. Universal siege shop all civs stables-----> (even if civ is not a super good cav civ, it is an option in certain situations) champion costs mercenaries cost idea ---> (I like the idea for mercs, but buffing the merc upgrade and adjustments to merc cost will help make them worth it) The bad stabilized gameplay "turtle" feeling in most games especially after 16-17 minutes (leads to endless games) archers OP archery tradition lost tradeoff qualities --->(maybe it should be + 20% damage and plus 10 m range but plus min range and minus HP) and free. archer eles too cheap/powerful buffed effective damage, range, and health of forts and towers. archers can kill catas and bolt shooters too easily Metal cost huge for everything, stone excess goes to powerful defenses Mercenaries cost much metal -----> (maybe move some metal cost to an asymmetric increase in food and or wood for different civs/units) size of cities because of many new buildings and stone excess and slow training----> (civ specialization/rushing --> cheaper barracks (sparta) or stable(pers) unit train times-----> (made it necessary to have 100% more barracks on average) I hope this captures many peoples most general grievances with a24, and I want to know if anyone agrees or disagrees with my suggestions! I have seen the changes being considered for a25 and I like the work going forward. Great work!

Lion.Kanzen Posted May 11, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2021 @Player of 0AD Any list you have there ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lion.Kanzen Posted June 1, 2021 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2021 The archers are very OP. ( You have to decrease attack rate and speed of movement. Elephants haven't weaknesses against attacks from melee. Iberians becomes a weak faction. Swordman aren't so useful. (Bad role). Lancer haven't a role just is another cab melee spear. The team must have to review all the changes from the A24 templates, To find role errors.( The unit is not effective against the units it is made for) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are they not essentially the same as spear? 5 hours ago, Lion.Kanzen said: Elephants haven't weaknesses against attacks from melee. Being solved on phab already. 5 hours ago, Lion.Kanzen said: Iberians becomes a weak faction. Perhaps add the soliferreum units from thorfinn mod to boost them? @Player of 0AD thinks that Iberians are a strong faction right now. I am rubbish at playing iber. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soloooy0 Posted June 1, 2021 Report Share Posted June 1, 2021 the bad archers op siege machines and elephants vulnerable to arrowing archer spam and ranged siege, the cheapest and most efficient tactic. all civs have siege workshop useless outpost unuseful mounted spearmen expensive tech scheme, but allows for full cav, full infantry or mixed tactics as upgrades are global no champions in phase 2 for greeks, macedonia deserves some champions in phase 2 macedonia has nothing to differentiate it from other civs as in previous 0ADs. default unit formation (caused me a lot of suicides) the iberian incendiary ship doesn't effect fire on other ships -.- mercenaries have a high metal cost Roman castrum is almost useless women don't give bonus to men for collecting paper troops do not have any bonus for phase change mercenaries are not allowed to collect resources the good the cost of champions trade nerf slinger nerf slower economy, makes ruhs and early attacks more important for me a strategy game is based on, adjusting to the enemy or terrain and choosing what goes best for your situation. for that the blacksmith system of A23 was very good. and not to mention the troops that the meta has been loaded with in each version. op javelin cavalry op slingers op bolt throwers op op archers .... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are now more useful than before. 56 minutes ago, soloooy0 said: elephants vulnerable to arrowing This is normal. Now they are vulnerable to the pikes and spears 58 minutes ago, soloooy0 said: the iberian incendiary ship doesn't effect fire on other ships We always neglect naval combat.

Must have bonus against missile infantry. And have more pierce attack than spear cavalry. More defense too. They were shock cavalry. 1 hour ago, Yekaterina said: Being solved on phab already.

Yekaterina Posted June 1, 2021 Report Share Posted June 1, 2021 2 hours ago, Lion.Kanzen said: I have to try it, it was just in that mod that I noticed it. The soliferreum units have 1 crush, 1 hack on top of 26 pierce. They are the first ranged unit to have hack damage, but you would need a large group of them in order to be effective at smashing structures. The reasoning behind it being their weapon has sharp blades aside of the tip, which can hack / slice. Their large mass also means collisions can crush their target. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
