TA:X mod in progress (slow progress)

Post by overkill »

TA overloaded is a mod based on uber hack that redos naval balence (ships,subs,seaplanes,and hovers) while adding a fully functionall balenced teir 3 (inbetween krog and gollie).TA Overloaded also will include some usefull lvl 1&2 units and add adv hovers.

ill have more details right before the release of v0.3(1st)

You say 'more details' as if you actually said anything at all.

What does it do to naval balance? What does it add to tier 3? What useful units will it add to tier 1 and 2?

--makes teir 3 build krogs instead of 2

Naval balence

-adds alot of balenced ships and sub to make Naval battles more interessting
-adds teir 2 hovers (lvl 2.5)
-makes teir 1 hovers lvl 1.5
-adds teir 1&2 hovers to make hovers more complete
-make ships more powerfull,tough, and costly
-adds fuel system 2 air

-adds lvl 1 carriers
-adds lvl 2 quad landing pads and a ns lvl 2 landing pad

Misc

-adds a few lvl 1 units like gunships and arty (thats not all added)
-makes intimidator bigger so its uh more intimidating
-makes big bertha bigger so its err bigger
-adds some teir 2 units that are needed like aa kbots and rezzers
-adds more explosions and effects so u dont see the same weapon over and over again
-makes each side unique (core focuses on armor,range, and power while arm focuses on speed,accuracy,and stelth
-adds unige ness to each sides weapons so each equeelent of each other isnt the same example makes core gaat gun shoot bursts of 3 non beam lasers while arm sentinal shoots like it does in aa

lrpcs were realy made bigger so people cant porc anearly on then build an lrpc in the middle of there small base

Dude, I don't give a fuck what else you do, but please, STOP WITH THE AOLSPEAK! ITS BE, NOT B, use capital letters and spaces after full stops.

I don't mind spelling mistakes, I talk with AF enough. But at least he uses relatively good grammer.

Will the unit names and descriptions have as many spelling mistakes as your posts? Even if the mod isn't as terrible as I think we all fear it will be if you ever finish it, I don't think I could bear to play it if the info text is full of things like "teir", "balence", and "capitol ship".

If you're making neat additions like new weapon effects, why not see if you can just contribute them to an existing, polished mod instead of taking on the largest possible project short of writing your own game engine?

to be honest i think you have the air system mixed up. bombers are supposed to have lots of feul and fighters are supposed to have a small amount of feul.

bombers are much larger than fighters, and therefore can carry more feul, and they dont have to use up feul on complex maneuvering like fighters do. also, bombers have to be able to fly all the way to the enemy base, which would be really hard if they had almost no feul. though, it makes sense for them to only be able to drop 1 load of bombs.

fighters are small, fast, and maneuverable; they are too small to hold large feul tanks. they should, by that logic, have a small amount of feul. also, thier point is to fly over your base and defend it from air attacks. it doesnt require a long range if all it has to do is fly over your base.
