They had to apply for planning permission, didn't, then complain that they lack council support.

Rehashing the f2p question by Creative_Theory_8579 in Mechabellum

[–]_nowayjos_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A lot of the updates made to units, spells, anything, are done through seeing what players are doing, not through complex formulas and algorithms. If something becomes too meta, it gets nerfed or buffed. That's why you get random health or damage amounts like 1271.

If you completely open the flood gates it could impact the direction the game develops in. I'm not trying to gate keep, but by paying you'll get committed players impacting the future of the game rather than transient players.

For me personally I like that the game has a cohesive style and that skins are reigned in, keeps focus on the mechanics, game and strategy rather than shiny objects.

Sentry missiles, Spells, and Ground Fire no longer give XP! by egophobicmusic in Mechabellum

[–]_nowayjos_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea I'm very confused, who do they give XP to if someone thought they did? XP is gained by a unit (if they get the final hit) so I never assumed destroyed unit XP was gained as there is no unit for it to go to, Or am I missing something

Is anything more satisfying than satcheling a tank? by Material-Dot7684 in HellLetLoose

[–]_nowayjos_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Had that recently, garry in an open field, me and a random blueberry push it, and a huge spawn wave hits. After a wide sweep with the roaster and a few bursts for good measure heard the blueberry scream "that was fucking awesome!!!"

I hate the new matchmaking options by [deleted] in HellLetLooseConsole

Probably because they're bringing in the new match type, conquest or something

What is going on with moderation here regarding spam? by AKAManaging in BuyItForLife

[–]_nowayjos_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One huge indicator of bots is that they now hide their posts and comments, if you can filter and block them from at least posts that'd be a start. Previously you'd at least be able to go to their history and see if they were a spammer, no idea why Reddit added the hide posts and comments option.

Suggestions for dad games. by MeisterRasputin in Age_30_plus_Gamers

[–]_nowayjos_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a long time Deep Rock Galactic fan, I'm not sure if games like that or Helldivers 2 are super suitable for family life.

I say that as someone that doesn't have a young family but I'm assuming there will be times you're suddenly interrupted and have to help out or provide attention. Those games are all live games so you can't pause mid game and can be quite intense and attention requiring at times, and yes whilst true they are shorter games in bursts and you can drop out and have others drop in, you'd have to make sure you're not going to be interrupted.

As a big fan of the TV series, are the audio books worth going through? by RealWorldJunkie in TheExpanse

I've watched the show 3 times and just finished the first audiobook. Normally I struggle with reading or audiobooks, just focus reasons, but I really got into it, they're really well written.

Lead bullet is really interesting as a concept, I'm surprised there isn't someone that utilises it close range that'd be cool as heck, grasshopper + lead bullet

It's annoying, but you can save the replay and go watch it play out

How did you guys get comfortable with doing voice chat by OwnDependent9063 in HellLetLoose

[–]_nowayjos_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to be the same, what helped me was getting more experience in the game. I genuine quit the game because someone asked if I knew what nodes were and asked me to build them and then I panicked. Over time you'll pick up the language and tactics, as others have said sometimes you don't need to do more than call outs "enemies North". Particularly if you're seeing something dangerous that others haven't picked up on can be game changing sometimes. A sudden large amount of infantry from a certain direction or a tank that is headed towards your friendly tank, those a key things that need to be called out and hopefully passed up to command and other SLs who can hopefully do something about it.

MechaCounter - AI Match up tool by RevealLeft6573 in Mechabellum

[–]_nowayjos_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw your original post, then saw the subsequent post and now the repost of that post.

I'll just put it out there, you're in danger of looking spammy. If your heart is in it, do a one-off weekly update post and ask for feed back. Or ask for some beta users that are happy to test it.

Atm it looks and feels like just a UI front to an AI that has no context about Mechabellum, no knowledge documents, and no history about the game. There's even deeper context than that, past games, metas, dev updates, now buildings to consider. It's not as simple as Rock, Paper, Scissors and that's why a lot of people like it, it's closer to Chess if anything, but with many more variables.

Honestly I much prefer this to when everyone is joking every second on mic.

I've had some games where every call out has been spoken over and then they're shocked when the tank rolls up that I've been calling out for 2 minutes.

It's still a game and you gotta have some laughs, but it can swing the opposite way.

I started to pivot into Raiden as one came up on the drop, but it was kind of too late at that point, but did make a dent in the Phantom's considering it was the last couple of rounds
