TWNewbie>uh-oh, what am I going to do now? I can't run anymore, I actually have to sit there and fight for once..sigh this is a ridiculous change. LMFAO

Finally he admits it!

You call it running, I call it strategic repositioning.

Actually, you're the one who called it running, I just pointed out that you said it

I was thinking on that one day too..

bd-arenas need them

Do they? This merits a discussion, at least. Taking greens out of BD would make it significantly easier to capture base, leading to greater turnover of flag time.

The only problem with greens, in my opinion, was greens that appear for one person don't appear for all people. In base it doesn't matter, but in elim it does. Getting killed by someone who got a full charge from a green that wasn't on your screen sucks.

If all greens appeared the same for everyone, then I'd want to keep them, since it would be a skill to use them effectively. However since they don't, removing them seems like the best option to me.

thread killer.

Software I made in VB.NET to aid in research of creating pokemon, basically. Pokemon is a lot more advanced of a game than you might think.

Would it now? If you were to ask an active base spider, he/she will tell you that countless times they're able to almost break a cram themselves by picking up fc greens, thus brining in their teamates. Not only do FC greens go both ways, but repel greens are MUCH more effective attacking a cram than defending one. The only greens I find are MORE effective for defending rather than attacking are bursts, and there isn't an explination needed for that.

[Verthanthi]

You know what doesn't go both ways? Bursts and ports.

Especially bursts.

That's exactly what I meant when I made the post, and I'd argue that portal is just as bad in terms of helping the defending team more. PaulO, you make a good point (and I *am* an active base spider, darling) about repel greens, but I think FC is about even both ways- they're easier to pick up when defending, and getting the extra shot from what is more likely to be behind a shark repel can be more important than having the extra shots from an attacking position. But FC isn't what I'm talking about here- it's the terrier greens.

[Verthanthi]

The one concern i'd have is that along with easier crams, it also creates shorter flag battles.

take em outta tee double you dee

Dear god yes, get the newbies out of the spawn area by any means necessary.

Now all you gotta do is hit them.
