What is a small change that could improve the current build drastically? [1236]

No, because their longevity makes them OP. I would like them to be about as spammable as they used to be, but not as strong as they currently are. That, or keep their cost exactly the same as it is now, but make them much stronger, since the 50 gold cost is really really steep.

 

Make a keg higher pickup priority than a lit bomb. Countless times I have attempted to bombjump with a keg and ended up blowing myself up and sometimes launching the keg, unlit, to the enemy team. Currently the only option is to leave the keg a little distance away from the bomb, place the lit bomb down, run and grab the keg, then make it back before the bomb explodes.

 

Customizable pick-up priority lists.

 

Now that's not a bad idea at all. It just has to be user friendly

 

I think making it part of the GUI would take a lot of time for the dev team, a custom .cfg file would be best since mostly only the tryhards notice/care about it at this point.

 

*cough cough*

But yea, I mean, priorities are really screwed up.
With keg-jumps, you should be able to pick up the keg, no matter what.
After all, its at least 4x the size, and thus, you are most likely much closer to it than the bomb in any stance.

 

Right now an unlit bomb is prioritized over a lit one

 

Pickup priority is not prioritized in this build guys. Does nobody read patch notes? It just goes by whatever is closest to the player, which is utterly horrible.

 

That's flat out terrible

 

If it became customizable, I would like to have different options for each class. Having the same priorities as every single class would be annoying (in my opinion).

 

This would be nice, but only if the weird bottom two blocks of back wall in the flag area got fixed. They seem to be near invincible to bombs and stuff.

 

I don't know if its a small change , but classic felt so precise in everything from movement to projectiles , I could get everything down to muscle memory and execute perfect maneuvers. The Kag beta or whatever its called now , everything feels floaty and random. It pretty much closed the skill gap and made it less enjoyable imo. Also bring back the void , falling out of the map was hilarious and space bridging was legit.

 

Some of the official maps do have the void, although its only tiny areas in underground tunnels. I agree taht more maps should have it as an integral feature. I love playing on custom maps where stuff like this has been included.

 

Add the void, Wilhelm scream, and more gibs back in. This is what made me buy classic!

 

Oh, I thought the patch notes stated it went by what was closest to you. Even if it's just a multiplier, pickup priority feels worse than it did a couple builds back. I feel like I pick up lit bombs more than lit/unlit kegs, which gets me all the time.

 

I think the recent updates have been pretty good although I still miss the infinite wall climb for knight...

 

Fix the shields. Shielding downwards in combat I'd useless and I sometimes feel like my own bombs will go through the shield if I'm at a certain angle. And jabs should be better at canceling slashes not full blown killing by spamming. They should do half a heart. It's like an archer half shorting does half a heart... jabs need to do the same.

 

They really do need to fix jabbing.... I was facing a noob constantly jabbing and he won because I couldn't do anything.
