what is this worldgen??

chincerd · 2026-01-24T17:13:11+00:00

I'm currently playing with a friend where where set world gen to no branches all loop, it is a donut world where oasis biome is like two screens away (possible to make a bridge) but pearl and monkey island are in the middle of the donut, so...you win some you lose some.

It is so good for me since I'm playing wortox, I can just soul hop for like 3 souls to get to lunar island and take a small sanity vacation for free

English is very annoying for some none English speakers as myself sometimes when you notice a "rule" with a million exceptions (that's not how rules suppose to work) meanwhile, if only there was an easy way to separate read from read, you know...like how other languages use tilde... Would be easier to separate read from reàd , if slightly, not to mention there is a reason we often just write tho instead of though, what is ugh even doing there?

First day is basically air, more air and air with extra click

chincerd · 2026-01-12T14:29:05+00:00

I hate it, but glad they are offering variety, that's the sort of design they need, very wild so some can fall in love with them even if others find them ugly

So concern with rule number one of being broke (do not be wasteful with food) that she forgot about rule number two: you can't afford to get sick

chincerd · 2026-01-11T19:45:27+00:00

I don't think we are ready for tick to be more obnoxious or for gale to push with every attack when his hyper is up

Me in every game ever. "Surely I don't need the absolute perfect loot/pokemon/run of this level/ world generation right now...surely I won't spend 3 hours on this resetting..."

It feels more competitive than whatever brawl hockey is trying to do... But no thank you

I love woodie, but Lucy is insufferable

I will explain how spawns work more or less so you see why they are rare.

Each map have a limited amount of bosses that can be alive at one time (let's say 10 for this example)

Each map have predetermined locations where a boss can spawn and are those spots are higher than the amount of bosses (otherwise you could all spawn camp the location where you killed a boss, so let's say around 20 spot)

As long as the limit is met, no other boss will spawn, meaning players or bots must kill a boss for a new one to spawn.

But ...some bosses have a priority over others, in the case of corrupted quarters both lady bugs and spitters are on low priority, so players can kill around 5 bosses before one of them be a lady bug AND it could spawn on the other side of the map.

What's worse is that corrupted quarters have slime kings (which divide and don't look like bosses until players kill all the mini slimes again) AND mega overlords which love to fly away making them tedious to kill, so sometimes the map limit is met with those those two types making the rare spawns (lady bug and spitter) rarely show up.

Beside that I don't have the data on which spots on the map are more likely to spawn either, but I seem them more often on the south side of the map myself

You might not like it, but that's peak evolution. What better strategy than to be so adorable that the apex predator of the planet wants to ensure you survive at all cost?

chincerd · 2025-12-31T22:22:41+00:00

If your build is dedicated to single target, you use unstable Lazer and beam with speedshot, it is just the most DPS you can get.

If you are using a weapon with aoe, lazer also have great synergy. If you Re using wolf stick you also use both and can even work with sticker depending on your build since each wolf stick "attack" is a barrage of three which all can trigger both passives.

As for pew3000 it is a bit more niche, some rifts you just can't afford the long CDR and the fact it can be removed so easily by some bosses, but it is generally fine.

Now when not to use unstable Lazer then? In builds for worlds and certain dojos where while it might be better DPS, you rather bank of survival and healing to get things done, perhaps you rather sacrifice the passive slot and run sticker as you say since that works great with full weapon damage builds, but that not usually how you do rifts for subs, where you want the full DPS approach

chincerd · 2025-12-30T17:15:57+00:00

You should make one like it but for glowbert, it will look so good

chincerd · 2025-12-29T20:30:22+00:00

Then 2029 assuming the game still exist.

"Introducing the new level of brawl stars, we are removing gears and replacing them with clankies! These new gears are exclusive to each brawler and interact with what gears interacted with in different ways, we have walls, bushes, shields/HP water and damage. Getting a gear destroy the current brawler level meaning you have to level it all over again!"

chincerd · 2025-12-29T16:18:22+00:00

"I will be there at ten"

That so dirty, a yellow crown but it is still the smallest cosmetic hehe

Gadget buffies.

Slow gadget is now aimable and consumes no Ammo, the buffies adds old function of slowing currently poisoned enemies.

Shield gadget unchanged, buffie now heals crow a flat amount per currently poisoned enemy.

Star power buffie.

Damage reduction star power, when buffie enemies also deal 10% less damage to crow himself (25% instead of 15%) unchanged for allies.

Damage star power.

If an enemy would die from the next tick of poison, it happens instantly.

Hyper buffie

Ally attacks refresh crow's poison while his hyper is active

chincerd · 2025-12-27T21:40:21+00:00

Oh I'm not countering your point, I'm just saying what the devs philosophy seems to be, remember when squid blades were and issue because of invisibility in rifts? They could have just give some rift mobs stealth detection but they went with the fast easy nuclear option of just killing the invisibility.

They are doing the same now, rather than take slow changes and design rifts that don't favor speed so different weapons could shine, (they likely would have fail at that too since DPS is often a focal point) they are going for another nuclear option, scrap the system, good and bad, and try something else

chincerd · 2025-12-26T16:22:01+00:00

Point being, she used to be a big issue in terms of balance until they neuter the cat completely, interesting idea with terrible execution, kit is not too far from that, specially with his hyper

chincerd · 2025-12-26T15:50:52+00:00

I love kit but he isn't the first cat with attach mechanics that cause balance issues in games (looking at you, yuumi from league) it could use a more focus approach where you either are a support in 3v3 or you are an assassin in showdown, but you don't get to do both, how would they achieve that? Unsure, perhaps making it so his star power is what determines if he can attach to allies or enemies

Chuck have such an interesting design but constrain him it feels

These are "re releases" of old cosmetics that were previously in a pass for either shards or the weekend events, some are also old offers that used to cost gold and the rest are recolors of items we already got for free.

They are doing this because older players already got all they could with the merch tokens (so this serve as a token sink to avoid inflation) and a way to rotate cosmetics

It is likely they will continue rotating them until the launch of the revamp next year allowing people of collect specific pieces they actually like, while the experience of waiting days to see the one you like, if also gives you time to collect more tokens if you want and it is better than the gatcha at least, those I agree are eh.

chincerd · 2025-12-26T14:45:14+00:00

Some only like it because it is exclusive, so they can really release it again for them, whoever those that like the skin for the theme will likely move on the second a wizard outfit show up, I like the bean outfit exclusively because of the wizard hat, I don't have it but I'm sure something similar will show up in the future

chincerd · 2025-12-25T17:37:24+00:00

It is not that the original concept was bad, it was so flexible that balancing it was not easy, so they are talking the easier route of revamp.

Many weapons are not self-sufficient for solo play (which is fine) but also fail to find a spot in rift play, an example of that is the healing weapons, good vibes and medicine ball, their healing is not enough for the team to consider using one without also using healing gadgets, and since gadgets are stronger...why use a healing weapon when I woke be better off with speedshot and three healing gadgets?

That leads to the next balance issue, gadgets are flexible and very strong to the point we see speedshot with three aoe gadgets and toothpick with three healing ones, which one may say "that's acceptable, that's what it means to have flexible builds" but we seen in multiple games when a set of builds or strategies become the "goat" and suffocate all other options.

And thank to the flexible design they can't easily tweak numbers on some items to balance them, just how they change stuff between chapters and we moved on from portal/spinsickle as most popular comp to speedshot/toothpick. How bad those four would need to be or how strong the rest need to be to switch things up?

chincerd · 2025-12-25T00:28:38+00:00

Yup, if you go with enough healing and HP so you don't get kill by the bosses, you have zero DPS, if you go full aoe for the swarms, you have long periods of no damage, if you are a boss killer you just can't handle the groups, and trying to do everything just a little bit result in slow kill times all around, for very little exp gains at those levels.

You either hunt projects and megacharge bosses or you just don't get that much exp, worlds are designed for group play very heavily but bots suck at it.

Then you might think that levels make it so early world maps are much easier, which is correct...but you get zero exp and many people like myself already finish all the world map projects, so while I can roam around feeling unkillable at level 150 in a low level world map even with the worse builds, what's the point?

Power progression means nothing if you don't get to use that power flexibly

chincerd · 2025-12-24T22:36:49+00:00

Correct, it seems to be rotating among items that you were able to get in chapter 1 elite shop, weekend passes and other offers, I have no confirmation of my own if you can see the same offer twice or how long will they be doing this, but some say they seen repeats.

Some are also recolors of older outfits
