Citadel destruction exploit?

Citadel destruction exploit?

Had a game against a player called undeadstyle on Prison. He played a general Erebus and suicidally charged at our citadel numerous times (died like eight times).

Then suddenly our citadel began to take huge amounts of damage. There were no enemies around and launching the Sedna Heal AoE right next to the citadel didn't damage any enemy units. The Erebus himself also wasn't misting in the Citadel or something as he was defending their cit.

How did he do it?

He didn't tell when asked about it (he was all smug and superior waving his huge e-penis around like an elephant in heat).

 

P.S. also ruined my nice 27-game long winning streak as a PUGger :'(

LuckyGrin, undeadstyle is what gives online games a bad name. He's just as bad as those hee-larious Rook griefers that eat up their own side's citadel and I have absolutely zero respect for him. And apparently, based on your sarcasm reference, you agree with me. Good for you.

Custom FFA games aren't important at all (I think so) = the only purpose to play em is to have fun = you can do whatever you wish as long as you have fun :)


Again: It's just a game :) Take it easy. Phrases like "no respect" etc are too way loud for virtual reality I think :

 

 

Btw: Undeadstyle always play WITHOUT favor as I mentioned and that exploit can only be used WITH favors.

So griefing is a-ok in your book unless in a tournament? Hacking would be also ok, were it possible? Verbal abuse would be ok?

Sheesh man.

As for respect, look it up in a dictionary. ;)  

I respect people with skill who conduct them in a gentlemanly way the same way that I respect all people who are good at something.

im sick of ppl that dont understand that the only option is tower high

 

without tower on high all these things are buggy

with tower high the game is fine and the generals arent OP

 

things i realized months ago

How can you be "sick" of people that do not "understand", that they have to use non-default settings otherwise all these things are "buggy"?

This is an unnecessary negative attitude.

cause its SICK to assume that "normal" options are the right ones

 

those are just the options developers started with, in many games they even didnt consider changing them

 

dunno about demigod but the point is there is a wide range of option and good players should play withe the *optimal* ones not with the standard just cause they are standard

in general yes

 

in demigod, right now... NO, they are not only important but the only option to play seriously

You shouldn't have to change the default settings to balance things. And in case you didn't know, you can't change the default settings in Skirmish or Pantheon.

Even with towers on high, I doubt it would do much besides delay the inevitable.

Maybe, but why do you not suggest that in a normal and friendly way?

this thought suggest you really think developers are very good players too

 

thats NEVER EVER happened in any game i played in the last 25 years

 

top players are always ahead of developers

and thats normal since usually top players are nerd nolifers while developers work

 

still playing brainlessly "helps" more to understand the good and the bad about a game

 

default settings like i said b4 are just the starting point

like the birthday

do you identify ppl by their bday?

ofc no, its just a random day picked up by some god up there, same with default settings

 

 

. And in case you didn't know, you can't change the default settings in Skirmish or Pantheon.

End of quote

 

yup thats a big problem and thats why custom are for many months ahead of pantheon

the overpowerness of generals with default settings is out of control but anyway with some default settings there will ALWAYS be some setup or class OP

with custom good players will be able to prevent the buggy mechanics using the appropriate setup

Sometimes the devs are good, (such as Agent911 in SupCom I think?) but this is beside the point. They balance the game based on feedback from the community, so it's irrelevant whether they themselves are top players or not.

Towers high is a poor option imo because it puts Regulus and the two mass minion toons ahead of everyone else. I expect games also take longer, which is a needless modification to make to the game. 20 minutes is quite enough thanks.

it WILL BE irrelevant, WHEN they will actually balance it

as for now those are just starting option born BEFORE  the community even started playing the game

The community has been playing the game since last year. That's what the beta was for.
