insensitive

I hear this being said about me an awful lot. I have a tendency to be very honest and extremely blunt with how I talk to people. I guess it could come off as insensitive to those who's feelings get bruised easier then overripe fruit. But I won't change who I am to cater to other's, it just isn't right.

You don't quite know what the word obligation means, do you? If I spent my time trying to care about every damn person I meet then I would have no time for the people in my life that actually mean something to me. Maybe its just me, but coming to such decision's is extremely easy for me. Its mostly just the way I've been raised to care about my family and friends and nobody else.

So, in other words, unless I make friends with anyone, they don't care 'bout me, and forget I exist. YEP, THAT DEFINITELY MAKES ME FEEL HAPPY

To be fair, nobody is obligated to care about you nor are you obligated to care about them. Such is the way of life. But better to receive no attention at all then to receive unwanted attention.

Wait, you are taking Hale Suggestions? Well then, I shall suggest one then.

(click to show/hide)

Name: Allen O'Neil
Skin: Well until someone can make a sprite for him, its going to have to be a placeholder

Hit points: 120 for each player
Speed: 110%
Armour: Normal

Primary attack: M60: Fires a barrage of 4 extremely fast moving projectiles that do 25 points of damage each. Rather slow refire rate.

Rage: Grenade Barrage: Allen O'Neil begin's chucking grenades at his enemies. Grenades do sizable damage (50 damage) and have a sizable blast radius. He'll throw grenades for about 5 seconds at a rate of 2 grenades per second when the rage is activated.

Super Jump: Absolutely none. Instead, Allen O'Neil is able to summon up to 3 Bazooka Soldiers to help support him. Bazooka soldiers have 200HP each. Their gun fires a projectile comparable to a rocket that explodes doing 10 points of direct damage + up to 20 splash. The projectile has a medium splash radius. They will also attack with a knife lunge if the enemy gets close enough. The knife lunge has short range, but does considerable damage (50HP).

Obituaries: M60: "(Player) was riddled full of holes by Allen O'Neil's(Hale) M60."
Grenade barrage: "(Player) was turned into chunky salsa by Allen O'Neil's(Hale) Grenade."
Bazooka Soldier: "(Player) was blown to smithereens by a Bazooka Soldier"
"(Player) got the business end of a Bazooka soldier's Knife lunge."


Theme:

Let's not forget that your boss currently is unable to deal with campers, but as for the rest of it...I personally like the soldiers in the MS series myself. It also would be very easy for me to do a check to see if their target is right next to them. Honestly the boss is pretty good, but cannot overlook the fact the boss is missing a skin and a suitable alternative to the Super Jump. The soldiers and rage MAY be able to get campers, but the grenades would need a large radius to them.

Hrm now that I've thought about it, how about instead of a Super jump he gets what is effectively an upgraded version of the grappling hook power up? Give it greater reach and greatly increase the height it pulls you to about the same as what a super jump would give. But of course, this would give Allen O'Neil alot of mobility. More then a regular hale would have. As for a sprite, there's nothing I can do about that. Unless Smash or someone else is willing to make one for me, he'll have to be a placeholder until you can place a request for his skin to be made.

And here we see the majestic Squid make a perilous journey across Snake's in Space. Its journey takes it across dry land and it finds itself being hunted by countless predator's armed with ThunderBeam all seeking to claim a tasty plate of Fried Calamari. The Squid makes this daunting journey for no other purpose other then to score a point for the red team and win the game, but more often the naught it fails it make it safely to the flag stand.

« on: March 01, 2014, 05:26:34 PM »

I think its just better teamwork that's needed. The 8Bit Deathmatch community seems to forget what that is. The Metool's health and speed balance each other out, he just needs a proper escort to get him where he needs to go unless he can manage to ninja his way into the enemy base but that would require the enemy team forgetting what the automap is for and that it even exists.

As a lover of objective based gameplay, I approve of this mod.

And yeah, I feel as though the metool should have an item or taunt that can alert friendly player's that they need aid. Too many times I saw a lone metool completely surrounded by 5 or 6 players just waiting to kill them.

I think you guys are missing the point I'm trying to make with Elecman's alt attack: Its ASSURED damage. You literally can't miss with it unless you are a mile away. It doesn't not require aiming the attack to hit with it, like the mainfire does and unfortunately: The alt does pretty good damage at a pretty respectable distance and Elecman's energy recharge and speed allows him to easily take advantage of it. And when the go to game mode for classes is TLMS, that's no good. Its a largely unavoidable attack that'll always do damage and the fact that it can do damage to more then just one person is just icing on the cake. There's a very good reason Toadman can't use his mainfire while moving.
And yes, I do know Elecman's mainfire is literally just copy weapon thunderbeam. Thunderbeam is a powerful weapon in its own right but requires aim. The alt does not require that same aim. Hopefully I've made my point now.

Perhaps you would like more thorough details on a few of my opinions?

I love doing this. <3 #0000FF

(click to show/hide)

For gods sake, do something about Needleman's mainfire. I don't understand why he needs to be like the heavy from Team fortress two, only worse. The wind up takes too long, the spread of the needles is so wide that you literally need to be in the opponent's face for most of them to hit and at that point you may as well be trying to stab them instead and the slow down makes you a nice sitting target for classes with high damage weapon's that require precision like charged Shademan, Knightman, Cutman and Elecman's mainfire. Either change it so that every needle flies in a straight line and reduce the wind up or get rid of the slow down completely but keep the spread and wind up.
The over-exaggeration is real. Seriously have you ever played Needleman? Seems you're just angry that you did poorly with him once then came to this thread to tell everyone how shitty you think he is. The spread is NOT too big, it's damn reasonable. You can't expect to be hitting every single shot at 5 miles away. Aiming isn't hard.
You think I don't remember how ungodly overpowered v4e Needleman was? But now we're in V7a. New classes, new problems. There's no reason his nerf's should still be holding.  Its the combination of the nerf's that make him bad to play as. The slow down when firing make's him a lovely slow moving target, the wind up gives people time to react to a needleman and the spread of the needle's make it difficult to hit anything at range. And the combination of slow down and wind up makes it impossible for needleman to pursue target's. And why play needleman at all? Darkman1 pretty much does the same job, but without the slow down, wind up or bullet spread. And you may say "But darkman1 can't jump and needs to use a jet to overcome obstacles", I would like to point out that not being able to jump is a moot point when proper use of the jet can give you far more mobility then any non-flying class could have. I don't want to see the return of v4e needleman, but he still needs to be given a buff. Preferably losing the Wind up, it'll allow needleman to ambush much better and do damage but still give people a chance to get away due to his slow down.

And while we're on that note, do something about Elecman's alt. His speed allow's him to kite people to death with it and his energy recharge is so fast you may as well not even bother using the mainfire at all. He's basically a faster and less well armoured Toadman that's not vulnerable when attacking.
God, what is this, v3a? Elecman's alt takes around 3 seconds to charge up after use. It hits for ~40 at point blank, and even less at a reasonable distance away. If you can't deal 67 damage in 15 seconds to a relatively fast target, you're doing something very wrong.
No, Elecman is not interesting or fun to play against. AoE is frustrating, but Elecman's AoE is something you can deal with.
Except Elecman's alt completely overshadow's his mainfire for the most part. Why would I want to use the mainfire to try to damage one person in front of me when I can use the Alt and deal damage to everyone around me for the measly cost of waiting 3 seconds to fire it again? And when the main game mode played for classes is TLMS, AoE is a huge deal because of how unavoidable it can be. Its why Gravityman is so damn broken, he literally denies everyone the ability to jump on fear of death. Its the assured damage that makes Elecman's alt powerful. It would be different in a game of Deathmatch, where you can just laugh at AoE and pick up a health capsule but who plays Classes deathmatch?

Grenademan seems to fire his weapon's a little too fast for his own good. The number of flash bombs and spread bombs he can put down range is terrifying and on small maps he absolutely destroy's people. I recommend a slight rate of fire reduction for Flash bombs and spread bombs.
They're already working on Grenademan iirc. he's not interesting he's too spammy why does he exist etc etc


Do something about Shademan's flight. It makes zero sense that Gyroman's flight takes forever and a day to fully recharge, but Shademan's recharges within two seconds of landing.
Alright, first off I'd like you to use Gyroman's alt for a few minutes. Please notice how he has complete freedom of movement, and is not hindered in any way while in the air.
Next, please acquaint yourself with Shademan's alt. You'll notice immediately that you're much slower, and have much less freedom of movement while using Shademan's alt.
See the difference? Ok, good.

If you'd like to go deeper:
Gyroman's main hits for 30, and is extremely easy to hit with, especially at an elevation. His altfire deals no damage.
Shademan's main hits for 15, is slower, and has a smaller hitbox. Charged, it does 45 damage, and is around the same speed and size as Gyroman's mainfire. His alt does not deal damage innately, and requires you to position yourself in a very specific manner to deal any damage.

>apples
>oranges
Flight is a powerful tool for any class to have regardless of how limited it is, hence why Gyro has been nearly bludgeoned to death with the nerf bat and one of the reason's why Astroman is such an obnoxious class. I'm not saying he should have to wait as long as Gyro for his flight recharge but he should be grounded for more then just a few seconds waiting for the recharge.

 Also FIX HIS SHADE SWOOP. He can heal by attacking Oil canister's with it on Oilman's stage and on TLMS or LMS, its flat out game breaking! I think Plantman can do the same thing as well, if I'm not mistaken.
pshhh i dunno apparently they're working on it. not as easy as it sounds.
Understandable and I hope that it can be fixed. It really is annoying when you play TLMS or LMS, see a Shademan on oilman's stage and know you can't beat him. Unless you are Gravityman, of course.
