include coop please :)

Then we can have "chicken coop" and it'll be a hilarious pun

I'm thinking a separate Chicken + Coop modifier might be better just so you can tell at a glance if people are playing Chicken or cooperative chicken.

It's "Co-op"

[el_matarife]

It's "Co-op"

If you're going to be pedantic, it's co-operative.

raise queen difficulty

[TheFatController]

I want to add an impossible queen but it needs to be a work of art not just a queen with 1,000,000 here and 10,000,000 there, it'll need some kind of complex strategy to defeat

Why not up the damage resistance she gains so you're forced to use many different weapons against her ?

[Jazcash]

Give her layers.

So Air can only do up to 50% until she becomes completely resistant.
Then vehicles can only do up to 30% until she becomes completely resistant.
Finally Kbots can do up to 20% until she becomes completely resistant.

This forces players to use different types of unit and when playing with 3 or more, you can assign players do use different units as well.

[Neddie]

I don't think an arbitrary layering system or fixed resistances are really good solutions. I think you might do better to implement armour zones, and use lua to have shifting resistances - the queen adapts to particular weapon types and when these cease to be used, her adaptation degrades over time. These two ideas together would promote multi-directional attacks and micromanagement while also encouraging mixed unit groups and phased attacks, without arbitrarily cutting up the combat model.

[el_matarife]

You could take a page from some old school side scrolling shooters and have a multiple level boss battle. First she shows up as her current form, you kill that and she turns into a big flying unit, and then you kill that and she splits into like 5 pieces, each vulnerable to a different damage type like lasers, missiles, plasma, or something like that. Each form could require a different strategy to tackle. I also think it would be neat if you had several "mini-bosses" after which you got a few minutes to rebuild.

Hmm, my Chicken Panel still isn't being rendered. http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r51/ ... een045.jpg

Any idea what's causing this? It never used to happen :S
