POWER TO YOUR SLOTS!

It's a good idea but I organise my weapons according to the order in which I shoot. It would be nice but we should be able to select the location of each buff

 

I think I mentioned that in my original post but if I didn’t that’s apart of my idea now. I realized this when a majority of the people who replied started complaining and wanted to trash another idea on the forum.

 

Hey once I just exchanged the slots of nitro and ob in my speeder... Wow it causes much considerable mistakes. So I think this is not necessary

 

What? This made no sense. What do you mean by exchanging OB and nitro and much considerable mistakes?

 

Its true man... Theoretically it doesnt make sense but practically it makes that.

 

Um. I...*malfunction*

 

Not everyone has a forum account; and I'm sure many battlers don't even know that a forum exists.


I'm not trying to, as you said "trash another idea on the forum", I just think that this idea wouldn't work so well (because of a variety of reasons brought up by myself and other people).

 

So far it has only been one reason and that is “what if I don’t put my favorite weapon in my first slot?” And I already solved that by saying you can switch the multiplier. It isn’t that confusing.

 

some gamers develop a set of movement skills that are habituated by repetition of the same movements, e.g. they memorise the position of nitro and when they see the bigtorp smiley face jumpsacaring them they tap the nitro and land in china=happy vegetals. if they change this slot, they tap like the overboost instead and they criiii everytim=angerey vegetals

happened to me once so i dont change often
i think this is wat he ment

 

Well you won’t have to worry about that any more because I said you can change it.

 

Basically what I'm trying to say is that, even if everyone understood the system, it will still add to the general 'complicatedness' of the game. Other than that, I guess the other problems have already been addressed by you in earlier posts... sorry for not checking! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

 

True, it's not terribly confusing. But what I don't like about this idea is that you're not solving a problem.

You just want your favorite things to be a little stronger. Sure, we all do, but that's something we all already have control over - it's a progression game after all.

The best I can come up with is that your idea is trying to add an extra touch of customization. But if that's the goal, then instead of small boosts spread across all 8 slots, I'd rather say you could get one single 10% boost to one item of your choice (doesn't have to be a weapon).

But then, most people would still choose a weapon, and it's not like weapons are weak right now... So again, we're not solving any real problems. Strength is available, customization is available...

I understand your idea, but I don't hear it and think "yes, this is needed! I hope the devs prioritize and spend time on this instead of the other great ideas posted!"

(I hope you don't feel like I'm just shooting down your idea. I gave it serious thought, came to some conclusions, and tried to respectfully convey them back to you.)

 

I didn’t think you shot down my idea at all you made it better. What if we just gave a multiplier boost that you can give to only one item of every class on your ship?

 

It sounds like you just want an extra boost for free...

But we already have a whole progression system to upgrade our stuff, so I just don't see why this idea is needed...

 

It also makes Rovio's job of balancing items harder...

Now they have to make sure everything is balanced without the 10% boost, and then also still balanced with the 10% boost.

 

Yeah op ex cannons snipers big torps swift torps fire blasts.
10% boost to T5 Frost Laucher will literally make like frost blaster a glue gun. Unbreakable TS damn man everything will be unbalanced means another 1000 points lost in finding true infamy.

 

Ok
