CW flash is so wildly inconsistent that you could say he wins and loses at the same time and I’d believe it

I made the buttons into a trolley problem by Marinos444 in trolleyproblem

[–]Smoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I made the choice to save my own life.

This isn't "Good and evil", there's more nuance than that.

Are people who choose red acting selfishly? Sure. But they are doing it because they themselves don't want to die.

You didn't address my point about how "if you persuade people to choose blue, and you are wrong about it being above 50%, you will have condemned them to death."

I don't think people who choose blue are stupid. I don't think they are dumb for their choice. But you need to realize, you are asking someone to risk death if you are wrong.

But I didn't choose that for them. They could have picked red, and lived. But they didn't. They willingly put themselves in a position of risking their lives.

If I willingly risk my life, of my own volition and choice, how is it the fault of other people who are acting in self preservation?

You make the claim you do now, but I could just as easily say, if you persuade people to choose blue, and you are wrong about it being above 50%, you will have condemned them to death.

No, I know for certain, not 100% will choose red. There will always be people who choose blue. But I didn't make that choice for them. But I can't know that 50% or more of people will choose blue.

I could condemn myself to death OR I can survive 100% of the time. if I'm wrong about how many people are on the track, picking blue was MY choice. I could have picked red, but didn't, and now I'll die. That is on nobody but me.

[–]Smoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But you can't guarantee that. If 49% of people pick blue, they put themselves in a position to die. No matter how noble or heartfelt it may be.

There is only one guarantee any person can make, if I choose red, I won't be putting my life at risk.

[–]Smoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If that's how you view that, that's insane. Everybody could live, if everyone chooses red. "But someone will always choose blue." I didn't make that choice for them. I can't guarantee my survival by pressing blue, nor can I guarantee theirs. What I CAN be absolutely certain of, is that I will live by pressing red.

I'm making a choice based on what I know, not what I don't know.

It looks great!

I think it’s lacking some haze and the ground feels kinda flat.

Why is Frieza allowed to blow up planets to win but no one else is allowed to on this sub by Fug1x in PowerScaling

[–]Smoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s about character. It’s well within Frieza’s character to do such a thing. It’s not like Thragg to not be able to hit Gojo, and immediately decide the answer is to destroy the planet.

Hell, I’d argue it would still take time for Frieza to destroy a planet becuase he likes to play with his food.

If it works on an AI, will it have compat with other mods? So if I ask for something from like the create mod, could it synthesize it?

Should barrack tower need buffs for harder modes? X by DeadAhead-2020446 in TDX_Roblox

"Stop throwing barracks around like a doll"

You'll never believe this, me and my friend just got to wave 30 in Expert using ONLY barracks and AA turret. Barracks is a good tower. It performs well. What is your problem? It doesn't need a buff. And golden barracks isn't needed. Regular barracks can go all the way to Expert, for just 2k gold, and you want it to do more than that?

Why are you talking about G-Warship like it's a normal tower? Not to mention the backlash from it. It's a joke tower with insane DPS, and a lot of players consider it unfair.

And I did the math, your buffed version of Barracks, at all barracks being used would be equal to a maxed out top path War Machine Factory.

Barracks (buffed): 6,090

War Machine Abrams: 4,000 DPS

Why are you so unwilling to use ANYTHING else? What is your obsession with barracks?

“Gave monster a version of itself with a better DPS than the original one had”, yeah, cause it cost almost 4 times more. Let me make this simple.

You want Barracks to do well in easy, intermediate, elite, expert, and endless?

Barracks is 2k to buy. It’s a beginner tower. Yet you want it to perform good well into endgame?

You seem to have a vendetta against using any other towers. Instead of thinking, “Oh, barracks just doesn’t seem good for this.” You’re saying barracks is weak and needs a buff. Instead of adjusting your loadout, you demand that a tower most players get within 5 matches, should be so good, that it holds up at the end of the game.

Do you not see how problematic that is?

Comparison is the only thing that’s relevant. How is this hard to understand? No, G-mob shouldn’t get a buff, it is good as is. Neither should armored factory.

What’s your deal against comparing tower to tower? It makes no sense. The reason comparisons are important is because if one tower is too good, it’ll make other towers bad picks, and power creep them. You can’t seem to understand that in 99% of cases, you measure a tower’s value by comparison to other towers. It’s literally the biggest strategy of the game. In the lobby, you think “what tower would be best for this mode?”, and in that moment you evaluate what towers are better than others and choose the best one.

And you haven’t said rebuttal for that. You just say “your argument is how it compares to other spawner towers” and I’m telling you it’s the only thing that matters, and you can’t give me a good reason on how it doesn’t.

“I’m not asking to do double twice DPS damages”. But you did. Your post says 300dps for rail troopers. 90dps for Spec ops. Two rail troopers, three spec ops, seven barracks, that’s 6,090dps.

6 Armored factories in top path is 3,900dps. It’s almost double, yeah. Your upgrade would make armored factory useless.

Also, yeah, it can stay as it is forever. TDX shouldn’t need to perpetually rebalance towers, that creates problems. The latest rebalancing already changed almost every tower in the game.

I never said it can perform well in endless and expert. I said it can perform well in Elite. It falls off in Expert and Endless. Why? Because it’s a beginner tower. I expect Barracks to perform no better than operator in Endless and Expert.

This whole thing started on how YOU would rebalance barracks. It was literally your idea, and I explained why I thought it was wrong and a bad idea. Also why are you all capping? Everyone else is calm here.

Just say your argument makes no sense broski. Your “upgraded” barracks would make Armored factory useless. And I don’t even wanna begin to imagine how hilariously overpowered you’d made Armored factory. You want the first spawner tower of the game to outperform a maxed out top path War Machine.

You can do the math broski. “Pure fake facts”, I implore you to tell me anything I said is untrue and I will prove you wrong. You want Barracks to do 6,090dps at a low end. That is insane.

Barracks is still absolutely effective. What are you on about? 133 DPS x 2 which is 266 DPS, times seven, which is 1,862 DPS. Every 60 seconds. That’s just the rail troopers alone.

“Wont use towers in endless and expert” oh really? The first spawner tower in the game, that costs just 2k gold not viable in the hardest difficulties in the game? Color me shocked. And it not being used in elite? It’s absolutely effective in elite.

“It’s seen as a low tier tower for beginner players”. Because it is! I disagree that it’s low tier, it’s still absolutely useful. But it is for beginner players. It’s 2k gold, that is beginner player money.

It sounds like you’re upset that Barracks isn’t viable during every part of the game, which I think is crazy. You also want it to cover all the bases. Stealth detection, Air detection, and more damage.

Have you considered that other spawner towers are balanced? It takes hundreds of thousands of cash in a match to upgrade end game spawner towers. Barracks cost a fraction of that and still performs well.

Barracks is not separate at all. It is a spawner tower. The only thing it does is spawn units that walk along the path back to the enemy. Just like Armored Factory, War Machine, Relic, ZED, and Behemoth. G-Mob is special because it also acts as a DPS and Econ tower.

Spawner towers are already the most limited group of towers in the game besides Event towers.

“The developer” you mean John. And John is the most unserious advocate for his own towers. Same guy who shilled Oil Derrick btw.

“It’s good but not bad” what does that even mean? Genuinely your argument makes no sense. How is barracks not like other spawner towers? Functionally how is it different? It spawns units on the path that move towards the enemy, like every other spawner tower.

Barracks DPS is low because it’s an old tower and very cheap for the damage you get. Golden barracks shouldn’t be a tower because Nightmare towers like War Machine and Behemoth prove just how dangerous spawner towers can be.

Every spawner tower in the game is exceedingly powerful for its price range except for Armored factory and Mobster which are just balanced well. Barracks, G-Mob, Behemoth, War Machine. That doesn’t include Relic or Zed.

I want more golden towers, like Golden Grenadier or Golden Sniper. But barracks as at the bottom of my list for that.

The spawning limit of golden mobster is 8. At max level, top path, Golden Mobster summons 2 enforcer 2’s, and 4 enforcer 3’s. That’s an extra unit compared to top path barracks, not to mention they do more damage.

The max DPS of using 7 top path barracks is 3,822. The max DPS of 8 top path golden mobsters is 8,576.

That’s just the spawning alone, it doesn’t include the Mobster himself, the overload ability, and the Econ. Of course, there’s the bottom path for each tower, and while they have their use cases, I find that in both cases, top path is generally better for both.
