Invasion League - Clearly not overtuned.
" Would you still avoid some of them unless you have a really good gear to face them, or not ? Not necessarily speaking of risk/reward here, just about the ability to kill them or not. " The inability of some to read and then jump to completely false conclusions ( or making stuff up ) will never cease to amaze me, and keep confirming the quite not so high faith that I have in humanity :(. " In a perfect world, people would not rage about video games ... SSF is not and will never be a standard for balance, it is not for people entitled to getting more without trading.

" In Invasion I probably would (avoid them). In ambush it would depend on my level. Some of them are easy for ranged builds but would be pretty much impossible for a facebreaker. The snake with RoA simply moves to fast for a char with no movement skills.

" Balancing around the game for instant logout and portals is dumb anyway. Remove both during combat and then we don't need one shot mechanics constantly. |
|
" What i was going for was a scenario where if you kill the boss, you get rewarded with a strongbox (which is still guarded by enemies, by the way), but if you chicken out and leave in any way other than running, you can't go back there unless you walk it or somebody else pulls the invader away from the portal. |

" Repeat after me: theory =/= practice (x10, like a mantra) ;) You have to be realistic about these things.

"There's no such thing as preventing logouts. You can't stop the client from using Alt+F4 or Task Manager to shut down the client, and you also can't wave a magic wand to ensure there are no more power or internet outages again, ever. It's not about preventing them, it's about deciding what to do when they happen, and since there are some completely innocent folks involved, anything overly punishing is simply not the right answer. Designing the game assuming instant logout is actually the correct move here, because trying to sort out the guilty and the innocent in terms of Alt+F4 and power outages is essentially impossible. When Stephen Colbert was killed by HYDRA's Project Insight in 2014, the comedy world lost a hero. Since his life model decoy isn't up to the task, please do not mistake my performance as political discussion. I'm just doing what Steve would have wanted.

" Sorry but this made me laugh really hard, and makes me think that you may not have any previous experience with online games. It's called being online on the server without the client being there. Happens in tons of game. Client crashes, character remains in game, sometimes long enough that it can hinder your next login attempt. You can't prevent client shutdowns. You can prevent logging out. Either that, or the way you worded it was just incorrect. That may be a possibility. EDIT: Remember boys and girls, always refresh when you see me post because i edit every post i make excessively. If something i said seems a bit off, refresh to see if it's still there. EDIT: This is the 7th edit in the 2 minutes this post has been up... Last edited by Xendran#1127 on Mar 14, 2014, 1:45:55 PM

" You mean like in Diablo 2? The game (as in the original classic version) was balanced around the fact that you weren't going to alt+f4 or run like a bitch. And guess what? Game was fun. Same with LOD. |
|
" I remember that and it was what earned you a probation. You come across as more mature and thoughtful now and that's a good outcome. But crying "bully" is regressive and I think you can make a stronger statement than that. |

"I think it's very important to remember that the game is played by players, and not by servers. As such, no, when there is a power outage, you are not logged in. The server may give you the status of "logged in," it may treat you as if you are logged in, and your character may suffer consequences as a result. But you're not. Now in terms of terminology, you're probably right. After all, the word "log" means a register, which implies that one is registered with someone. Perhaps the phrase "session termination" is more appropriate. When Stephen Colbert was killed by HYDRA's Project Insight in 2014, the comedy world lost a hero.
