Only EMP that can paralyze jugg is Stiletto, which says more about the 'letto than it does about the jugg
Is this an accurate assessment of BA 1vs1s?

i dont understand this, could you explain what you are meaning?Only EMP that can paralyze jugg is Stiletto, which says more about the 'letto than it does about the jugg NeutralKingRaptor wrote:

what are you waiting for?
what's that, BA is only for 1v1? well that's a shame, time for someone to fork this bitch then.
instead of all the crap you've posted here you could've already made 5 different forks of aa/ba that are superior in balance to our own.
yes.swiftspear:
If you want a voice you better be prepared to show that you know the game quite well before you can expect to be heard.
watch your own attitude before you cry about mine. do you honestly think any cow is going to take you seriously after something like this?guy posts a wall of hate text over nothing and the solution is for everyone else to watch their attitude and force of character?
regarding the things you have posted here, yeah i think you are not a good player.i have 300 hours, all team games. does that mean i know nothing about competitive BA? no, it means i know fuck all about 1v1s
i have Never seen you play, so either you are lying or you have played 300 hours worth of noob-bash matches
ok, but i still think he should make his own fork instead of crying about the current one's balance, as there are more people thinking that the balance is good than people who think the balance is wrong.
and btw hunter is actually a pretty decent player. he knows his team games well and is really quite good at being good at them.
i admit, there are flaws in the game, but that doesnt stop it from being fun and highly competitive.
that combined with the cows natural laziness means we dont want to release new versions every second day that fix some really minor issues.
we already got ca for that ;]
pxtl;
the other emp:ers are meant to do stun over time, ie they have small emp dmg values but they do it constantly to the unit, locking them down (spiders, bladewings) while the stilettto is meant to fly over, stun the enemy and run away in seconds, there is no chance to give it a small emp value.Either the Stiletto does absurdly huge stun-damage, or other units do absurdly small stun-damage. For some reason the Stiletto's stun damage is several orders of magnitude higher than other stun-units. This is very strange.
so you are true,
stilettos do absurdly huge stun damage, as it is meant to do a "surprise" stun, while the others are meant to "lock down" the enemy with stun.
I think the stilleto EMP values might be a bit over the top, never really looked into it tbh.
And hunter, yes BA is mainly balanced with 1v1 in mind. Mainly because we think that 1v1 is what matters, considereing competition and skill. That is of coure OUR opinion. We never hold it secret though, that BA is balanced for 1v1.

possibly less EMP damage is needed for the same effect, but then the jug wouldn't be insta EMPed. But like i said i havn't looked into it yet.RogerN wrote:Leave the poor Stilleto alone! It's neglected enough already. Honestly, it's such a specialized unit that I don't see how it could be over the top. If a unit can be stunned then the stilleto stuns it; it's that simple. That's not "over the top" IMO - that's just what it's supposed to do.

I like this quote. It really shows how WarC chooses to think regarding themselves and BA, from a WarC member himself. Especially these:LETS LAY DOWN SOME BASIC INFORMATION YOU SHOULD KNOW BUT APPARENTLY YOU DONT.
WarC are the developers of ba.
WarC do not give a shit about your balance input on this mod.
WarC does not want intelligent discussion with retards about balance.
do you honestly think we care about the ba forum posters?
do you think we take them seriously?
go back there and look at the replies we have made. Some ideas are good, majority just reek of idiocy.
DID YOU THINK WE WANT INTELLIGENT DISCUSSION OF THE BALANCE?
THINK AGAIN
WARC are composed of the finest players of ta:spring, WarC knows it can make a good balance for a mod, if we wanted your input, we'd ask it from you.
we balance this mod according to our own sense of balance.
your input is appreciated if its about finding bugs or other stuff like that, like saktoth has done, i appreciate him for that.
but you, hunterw.
i have never seen you play this mod.
this means you lack experience in competitive play of ba.
your lack of competitive experience means you do not have a proper sense of balance.
you not having proper sense of balance means you post shit you think is balanced/cool
you posting shit you think is cool/balanced leads to me flaming you down
me flaming you down leads to you crying about that or crying about the current state of balance.
i hate you
i think you have bad manners
and most of all
I THINK HACKS
Im not representing anyone else here, but I don't want a bunch of ego-brained 1337ists running the mod everyone here plays.WARC are composed of the finest players of ta:spring, WarC knows it can make a good balance for a mod

Just another reason why Ive turned a blind eye to BA...
Don't give up CA!
