Hello,
Ubisoft, I'm kinda curios on if the MMA (Master of Material Arts) general is going to be revamped with everything else because you are getting rid of the First Strike Skill. But with the MMA, he has:
Hitpoints: 1
Damage: 450 - 500
Accuracy: 80%
Initiative: First Strike
Skills: Attacks Weakest Target & Splash Damage
So, Are you changing that or what? I'm curious to know if you are or not.
when i tried out the MMA on the test server it struck first so not sure where it keeps saying it is not first strike. I guess i missed that.
I will go on to say that i think the Damage should move up to 1300 - 1500 from 450 - 500. I think this would be more in line with the increase in the hit points of enemy unit types.
I don't think at this point they even know what are they doing. More people start to suspect they use their new game design and drop this in here. Now they are sitting back and watching testers trying to figure out what to do with this Bull c r a p. I know lazy when I see one..
Well, This isn't good if its not First strike anymore because it will be pointless and even a waste of gems for 7K on 2nd one.Quote:

It will take a lot more effert to kill the Bandit Troops and that and it will be more "Strategy" based with the new Combat System, I think even with 1000 Dmg it will be fine. All Adventures are getting revamped and will be much much tougher then what they are now.Quote:

The cost of recruiting troops is reduced which is nice, but the cost to make the weapons is increased and the production time stays the same... They will serioursly need to reduce the production time on the Pinewood Cutters/ Hardwood cutters and other buildings for this to all work out.Quote:

I will go on record to say after reading and looking at the information so far it doesn't sound good to me. I can't see where it won't change the aspects of the game completely and as a cash spending player my money will go somewhere else if I no longer have fun with the game.
I said it was acting as first strike. It made the first attack it is first strike. Where are you getting this other information from.Quote:

And when i hear that i thinkn that it must make sense for UBI i mean who wants people doing things all the time staying and playing more. It is better for them to sit and wait and and walk away and do things away from their computer ... Oh wait thats right that doesnt make sense at all. Stay play and pay should be their goal meaning they dont even need these changes.Quote:

With them changing the whole island, its only because the reduced the recruit costs.... But Recruits will now be pretty much useless on the adventures in the new combat system. Will have to start using Militia and Soldiers more often and same with Long-bowmen instead of Bowmen.
Troops will cost less but not THAT much as it is needed for them to cost to replace 600-800R a day with 600-800M a day. It is not that hard to see your economy will not be able to support more than 2-4 adventures a week, not 2 day...
time to do away with the adventures for gqs...Quote:

made that topic on test server to explain my thoughts on this, feedback in here doesnt do much....
I am still kinda shocked BB haven't thought about this. It seems the devs don't know much about their game at all. Takes 5 iron mines (lev3) to feed 1 Iron smelter (lev5). How are we supposed to even make those thousands of Iron swords needed to do adventures when Militia will replace Recruits?
Clearly a sign of complete lack of knowledge about their own game. And there are many more. How can you drop changes like this into test KNOWING that there is no way in hell your design island economy just can support it? I can't take the devs seriously anymore. They're embarrassing themselves in players eyes...
nope everyone has a voice....unfortunatly thats about the number of players that will be left ONEQuote:

It will cost like 4 or so Iron Swords to make 1 Militia but you are pumping out 20 Iron Swords. So it might be okay with it. It won't be to bad, but once you get into the Steel Production and Above its just terrible.Quote:

Don't even want to think about losing canons. 1hr 12 min per a cycle? And how much resources it takes? My head spins when I try to wrap my thoughts around this...
I believe in the new system its 2 Carriages and 1 Gunpowder to make 1 Cannon now. Yes, Training troops will be tough even with Skunks and making Steel Swords to make Soldiers will be the toughest. Will have to be careful to use the right troop types on adventures now.Quote:

I think with the new changes after 2-3 RB's I will hit the choke point (of not having enough weapons to train the troops needed) and got to wait a couple of days to do another. To sit in front of my island and NOT be able to do anything while waiting for my smith to make weapons? No thanks.
Wait, you sit in front of your island doing nothing??? *Plays on Console* well... thats *Makes a block on Adventure* just weird.... You should be *Plays on Console* doing something well on your island as well... Lol XDQuote:
