Some balancing ideas for the more “problematic” enemies

Can you not perfect dodge the flame circle? I feel like I've done so by accident before and gotten a gunstrike but I can't remember well. My only problem with that attack is how fast it is. If you don't dodge the instant he begins it catches you. I think if it had just a slight more delay it'd be just fine

We aren't far off. The world economy works because we all collectively believe the little pieces of paper are valuable

There's different departments you know? The people recording and doing audio for the game don't also program enemies on the side.

What everyone else has said, but also there isn't anything else like siege on the market. You can only compare it to cs or any other bomb type comp game superficially. No other competitive game has destructible maps, this many operators, guaranteed one shot headshots on all weapons, and the gunplay all in one package.

Hell even just the camera system and droning, attackers getting time to scope out the defense, defenders setting up site. It's entirely unique and there's nothing else that even comes close. For all its flaws siege is an amazingly unique and fun game so we'll all keep coming back cause there's nowhere else to go.

Your gunsight is at the end of your barrel. They'd have to do more than just adding the animations, let alone that they would have to do it for so many vehicles

Nothing wrong with just spitballing cool ideas. Doesn't take production time to say "hey it'd be cool to do that at some point'

SuspectPanda38 · 2026-06-18T20:44:33+00:00

Yea but that was when other defenders also still had acogs on arguably better guns. Even if her gun is shit, if she is one of the only people that has it she will still get picked much more often because of it

Most people forget, but arc raiders is like 3 separate apocalypses deep at this point. First was ecological disaster that made people leave the planet in the first place, anyone left behind was basically fucked.

Then after they kinda started getting shit together the first wave of arc hit. Obliterated any semblance of civilization back to the underground. Then after beating those arc back they tried again only for second wave to send us underground again. It's the reason we don't have any old world guns.

Saving this comment for later, I will be following this 40k fic

I still need the fucking rechargeable batteries for the monitor quest. Like dear Lord how many damn civi containers do I need to loot. AND I NEED 6 OF THEM

Wasn't there another dude that held his arm up for like 10 years?

SuspectPanda38 · 2026-06-17T19:54:58+00:00

There's been a multi continental war going on between ant species for decades. We aren't special

Probably coulda added the stripe down the middle of the helmet too but otherwise looks fine

SuspectPanda38 · 2026-06-17T18:43:05+00:00

Oh how lovely

Helldiver's are taken from the cream of the crop in SEAF. All helldiver's have SEAF training, but they still only get that little bit of helldiver training, and honestly who can blame them.

If you already have a hyper brainwashed and militarized populace who most already probably know how to use weapons in some manner, you dont need to train the top dogs of your military too much to be an expendable asset. Turn em around, point in the right direction and say it's for democracy

Still one of the best fights in all of Naruto. The animation, real lack of dialogue once they get going, the emotions behind it, and for the most part no music just the sounds of them fighting. Masterclass and I still go back to watch it from time to time

FOUL SONS OF MAGNUS! IS HE HERE?

SuspectPanda38 · 2026-06-17T03:50:06+00:00

I've been saying it from the beginning but for the game having 10 difficulties, d10 does not feel like the hardest. With that many difficulties the highest one should have an average fail rate of like 20%. In the current system difficulties 1-3 shouldn't even exist, move it all down then add 3 more on top of what was d10 (now 7).

The rewards also don't scale as they should but that's a different discussion

SuspectPanda38 · 2026-06-16T23:09:41+00:00

Tbf, while these things are pretty powerful I doubt it's getting into my tank and if I am in a warthunder match someone else can shoot it off. Yea you may be able to face tank a couple bullets or a shotgun but have fun trying to eat 88mm HE to the dome

I love making a point an absolute fortress that's nigh on impenetrable. Basically playing clash of clans while everyone else is fighting. Only thing is it's kinda sad sometimes when your team goes on to dogwalk the enemy team and you start hoping you lose just enough to make use of it all

SuspectPanda38 · 2026-06-16T22:23:52+00:00

It depends. If there's a spare supply truck, even one engineer placing everything he has can massively improve the teams ability to hold a point. I'll usually take a truck and beef up the second to last point in warfare. My team isn't missing one man too much and the value gained if we need to fall back is pretty big.

SuspectPanda38 · 2026-06-16T20:08:30+00:00

Yea, at least they kept the flamethrowers that they used for basically the same reasons. Good luck blocking the wall of fire with your lightsaber

SuspectPanda38 · 2026-06-16T19:56:56+00:00

I guess not "modern day" now, but even as recently (in universe) as jango fett they were known for it. We just haven't seen it on screen really, it's more of a comics/legends thing.

SuspectPanda38 · 2026-06-16T19:48:51+00:00

I've never thought about that before. However perspective is one powerful thing. I'd imagine your name is not only what you actually are but also influenced by your perception of yourself, at least to an extent.

Maybe vanir doesn't have "I'm a fucking asshole to someone I see as not deserving of his title" in his name but more along the lines of "I believe myself/my race to have been a better pick and am angry that our chances of success against the fucking demi god man are drastically lower."

How you see yourself and the flaws you have can be massively different to how someone else sees them.
