Patch Preview: Pounce/Swoop/Massive Leap consolidation

Ya Stone Colossus should get Colossal

 

Should I not?
How many units have Commander on the name? I dont see that as an issue, I actually put high expectations when flavos ia concerned (thats why I dislike ferrets and corgis on this game)

 

6, 2 of which are reskins

 

corgi commander sounds like a pretty badass rune concept.

 

1)Im not wanting anything. I just said that for Commander, I would like if it had the respective ability. But yeah, I dont care for lacking understanding of design, and we both lack understanding of balance so its all good. Good thing you have that council of noob of yours.

2) "In general its going to work out" was all I needed to hear. Good night!

It'd help your points a ton if you'd at least refrain from insulting people's ability to play this game, otherwise you end up sounding like a certain super fellow who everyone keeps having a laugh about.

 

I'd agree with this.

I can agree that it shouldn't be a hard rule, but... the thing's gigantic in the rune art, his flavour text is all about it being the biggest and it has colossus in the name - not just in the name, it is the name.

 

oh right, it's hunter: small now.

 

Can "K'thun the Ancient" finally lose "Wandering" since "Lore" and especially "Names" only give context on what their designs may be?

1) Buddy, I started this conversation not insulting anyone, nor I think I have up until this point;
2) I couldnt care less if people are having a laugh about me on these forums. Most of the guys who point and laugh around here are the ones who suffer from that in real life, so its fine by me they have this place as a refugee. Just dont expect me to stop saying the things I want to say and I feel are bad for the game.
Have a good one.

 

It's true you've been much better about not insulting anyone...now you're just insulting everything in general about the game. It's not any better. Sure, you're providing criticism, but in order for that to be beneficial or worth listening to it needs to be constructive and not just complaining. You have in the past had a lot of good input. You were starting to again. Now you're heading down the same path you spent a week apologizing for.

 

I appreciate the advice man, but Im not going down the same path, at all.
There are two things I just recently found out that Im strongly against: KB change and this Pounce change. Thats it.
And if Im strong with my opinions without hurting anybodys feelings, whats the problem with that?
I cant really debate too much with Sok because I dont have as much time as him to make lengthy posts with my opinion, because I dont work for Pox. So, I try to be as objective and succinct as I can, and sometimes I cant even reply. Doesnt mean I shouldnt say something.
Again, I appreciate the advice, but I dont think Im going down the same path nor I need to apologize for being against the changes being implemented.

 

KB change doesn't change much other than remove some instant kills...and it's still going to be an instant kill for the most part, just from damage rather than being knocked over a cliff. Pounce change is definitely going to be a change, but I'm not seeing where it's that big of a deal. I don't care much for the change, but with the PS4 launch coming I think it's good that things will be more intuitive. I'm also assuming that if it ends up being too much then Sok will compensate for it, and given his track record I think that's a reasonable assumption to make.

As far as your complaints, it's been more than just about pounce and kb. You're starting to come across as bitter again over the last few days. Have a look at your post in the equipment preview thread. It's more than a little salty. In this thread you're starting to talk about "rare league rabble" when you haven't been playing yourself. Perhaps wait to see how things are adjusted before going off the deep end? Personally I really like seeing these preview threads and I'd hate to see them go away due to people raging on the forums before even seeing the end result. (Like has happened before with rune previews.)

 

Ok, with that I can agree with.
I'll take a step back this week, then.
But I still think KB change was terrible for the game (specially that Domichasm still exists), Pounce is being made into a joke of an ability and there are some clearly op equips there that were "tuned".
You wont be hearing from me anymore on these subjects.

 

I was fine with this, until Barbarian Guardian got reworked to have several amazing "teamwork" abilities, while Lonx Defender and Guardian are pretty self-centered(except for that one ability that makes Lonx the best targets for Echoes). And no, I'm not asking for buffs as much as I'm wondering about the parameters for such choices(to be honest Defender in Lonx could end up being too much, not to mention it's cool that themes don't have access to all buffs).
