Build 800 - Control the Halls! (No OSX build yet)

I like skybridges, you should just remember to make anti-air towers with some ballista. The maps should also be less high.

I agree on building time.

Spikes are really annoying at the moment when abused.. They should require a stone block to attach to, and have way less health - one bomb should be able to wipe at least 3 of them out. You should also be able to damage them via slashes so they clear out naturally if just spammed out in the open.

Halls are currently way way too easy to capture. It's not even usually a legit raid that captures a hall, it's some lone sod that sneaks into the house unnoticed. I'd like to see three things changed about halls:
1) Being able to spawn while a hall is being taken.
2) Being able to travel to a hall that is being taken.
3) Being able to choose which hall to spawn on and see the surroundings of a hall while dead.

 

That is exactly what I was telling my friend. That is a perfect Idea. This is because it's not that easy to gain alot of stone, so why waste it on spamming spikes. This is why it will help with spike spammers. :/

 

Don't you people understand that you need a builder to progress. You can't just have everone moving up one class. You need to work together as a team to move up. Ladder over buildings, clear skpikes, and set up small forts. Knights should't be able to take out defences thats the builders job.

 

I think shortbridges are great that's why skybridge'ing is enabled?

But I think this should happen:
This > Shortbridge/Support system - Less support needed & fast bridge build.
Instead of skybridge - no support needed & fast endgame. Lol

 

I don't like them period. That's all.

 

Ok we don't need skybridges to take out good bases. We got somthing else

 

I am still against any sky bridging.
if people want to do what shown on the picture they should build a support in the middle; just like it was in classic war +ability to please blocs fast should not make that a problem.
I am against sky bridging so much because it gives INORMES advantage that picture shows it. people created a fast and easy way to travel to that high value strategic point in like one minute.
If people want to get that advantage they should work harder , spend more recourses, spend more man power and spend more time to get that advantage. That will also make super high and and supper long sky bridge too hard to build. Also the way how the weight system works should be changed for example : straight bridge 10 clocks wide connected to 3 supports one on the left end and one on the right, and in the middle. if the middle support is destroyed middle part of the bridge will fall.

Now about halls
I can agree with 2 and 3, but not with the 1.
We met the same problem while developing CTP, the problem was spawn kill. player will be stuck there and attackers will just constantly slash or stab spam. It will just make people angry.

 

Sky bridging is the worst side effect this game ever had, it shouldn't even exist in the first place.

 

Stop justifying a side effect that has no place in this game, this isn't minecraft, nobody wants this shit to break game immersion and it's also annoying as hell to deal with.

 

The beta seems to go further to favoring arbitrary meta-systems instead of universal consistency with each new update. : /
Some aspects feel contrived and confusing, like tree growth and the factory/migrant system.

Maybe it would be worth going back a bit and simplifying things so they make sense and feel consistent?

 

Devs should just make a good tutorial and make a big button "TUTORIAL" between single player and multiplayer. It should look like a 2d side scroller puzzle. That puzzle should contain a few sections, in each section a sign with a description and maybe some art (pictures with actions and arrows). It will allow people to rush to the section people want to learn or go through each section slowly.
I think it will help people to understand beta better.

 

I think to make spikes less powerful, you need to make it less hits to destroy them. This way they're still good against knights, but less powerful when a builder is there.

 

You know whats funny. One round I go the the mil supplies get 100 arrows, then sit on the wall holding left click for 1 sec letting my arrows fall to the ground and spam all the knights. Then I go to another mill supplies as knight and get like 5 bombs, then sat on the wall and spamed space bar at all of the knights on the round. What I'm going at with this is mill supplies have way to much crap. Then my team puts 5 of them down and use all of the migrants, Then things get crazy

 

I personally rather like the halls mode as it its, but I think there are 3(?) things that I don't really like
-Spikes. The fact that they retract has made the potential for spam so much easier. Also, there's currently no way to identify friendly spikes from hostile spikes, before one cleans your boots and the other skewers your knees.
-No support. Why did you completely remove it? Sure, in classic you could have a monolith being supported by a twig, but it still kept skybridges in check.
-Jab/ammo spam. It's worse this update than the last few. Jabs are too quick, you can jab someone to death before they have time to raise their shield. That combined with amgtree's comment of ammo spam makes it a lot less fun and challenging to defend or fight.

But as I said, I like the new direction KAG is headed, so keep up the good work.

 

remove skybridges or I will remove the internet and I won't give it back this time.

 

I don't agree with this. Spikes should look neutral because it's a trap, that's why you need to carefully detect whether the spikes are friendly or not :P .
