The new ?go angellbase Thread (from TWD forum)

[Dameon Angell]

Dyers - Yeah, there will be some shoot shoot rep, but it'll most likely go onto 2 smaller areas of it. The teams would have to then have more reliable players (not just 1 or 2) to keep the enemies back. 2 Good sharks, not 1 with one that can kinda keep trading with him. And not just 1 or 2 spiders than can do the job correctly.

Dabram - Its supposed to be the equivalent of what speedball is to paintball. It never replaced paintball, just another option to it. Quicker games with more flag contention, not having most of the action behind the cram.

Dis - I fixed that. Lol. I forgot to fill up the sides, but those got fixed quickly.

Anyways, the time for talking is long over, just go into ?go angellbase and see it yourself.

And, to prevent future dabrams from assuming that I'm on a mission to make base for skillless newbs and destroy basing, I'tll be in SSCU Trench Wars

No change needed, we're playing because we like it, changing something like this will make players leave or like it better.

I'm not gonna say anything about the flagroom before I get to see a game or two there, but I really hate the lower base. You made openings like 10 tiles wide in the old "dead area". It's like 1 second slower to go via one of them than going straight into the main tube.

Why change the tube? It's not too easily defendable is it? I've never seen a TWLB-class game where a team has managed to keep the opposing team outside the whole base for more than a minute or so.

Also, this will take away the few kills sharks have left. If I mine in the tube, the enemy will just leave them there and take the 1 extra second to take one of the side holes.

There are other possible ways, without changing the maps, to address the issues the DA makes....

1. Add a rare Thor green in spawn area only. It might be that teams then have a player run around and seek out the Thor Hammer, especially if they were very far behind in the game. One Thor and the cram is broken.

or it would just be repelled...and not break cram.

You made openings like 10 tiles wide ...

The map I made had openings the size of 2 tiles, I think I still prefer that way as the huge openings sort of makes the whole lower base redundant.

[Abatis]

With the new midbase entrances, the outer tubes really aren't needed anymore. Perhaps you should cut them off, it'd make a bit faster for javs to go to roof, not much.

Is this planned for pub, ?go base, twbd, or all of them?

Jeansi, sharks could start to mine the very first entance into the base which is too wide, but with teamwork possibly. It'd also take a while to get down there, but possible?

Probably a stupid idea, but has anyone thought of making an exit from midbase to roof?

or it would just be repelled...and not break cram.

Or would sharks be forced to always hold back one repel, just in case?

4 spid limit - no base change

[genocidal]

No change needed, we're playing because we like it, changing something like this will make players leave or like it better.

This makes no intuitive sense.

[Nockm]

I used to be against 4-spid limit. That was then... now I'm all for it.
