Default Re: Balanced Systems for KOTH games and other

gee david... i do not think most people care about what the maps looks like when their looking for a competely balanced game.

As it is balanced game play is the goal here.

Well boring is subjective. And saying someone is insanely competative isn't really waranted. If the idea is for a competative game there is nothing wrong with wanting a balanced start for all players. It's not like anyone is suggestion you have to play your games this way. There is room for many different styles.

As "boring" as this map would be, it's got a lot more going on then a chess board, and that's been played for centuries and many people find it quite stimulating.

In my first KOTH game I was stuck behind a supermassive black hole and lost over half of my ships because of it. I lost the game.

Just a quick question to Shrapnel, are you just a new member, or are you connected to Shrapnel Games?

The avatar name you using is interesting.
