Best patch ever. The broadcast warpgates make continent locks more valuable, battles easier to get to, and create a frontline between continents. The general Core Combat changes are great, particularly the longer mod times and *particularly* the cavern lock benefits. Cavern control has a new, special signifigance. The Capitol, in addition to it's warpgate benefits, contribute a great center of power on a continent, and a safe place to mount an attack from. The Sub-capitol system is great, and the numbers needed to take down the force dome and to actually hack are just great. The CC ammo boxes make them viable weapons now, and they're easier to get with more frequent cavern locks.
The only think I want to see added is the capitol being a new spawn catigory. As long as your empire controls it, you should be able to spawn there from anywhere on the continent without having to bind. This would be good if the hostile empires are beginning to overtake bases attached to the warpgate. Have a CR send out a global for people to broadcast to the continent. Those people deconstruct at the nearest tower, right to the capitol and a counterattack is launched.

 You have to be careful that the benefits aren't going to be too powerful though. Attackers do need to have a decent chance.

All I can say is that the battles have been very intense and fun the last few nights. I've seen a lot more battles taking place outside the bases and there has been an increase in special ops. I like that because I'm usually sitting back on defense and I've been very busy lately defending against some very organized squads. The challenge has just gone up.

The conts are constantly changing, but empires still seem to be fighting for the same conts they always did. |

While I have been spending a lot of time on Cyssor, I've also been in a fair number of battles on Oshur which even as a VS I used to never fight over. Even more unusual, I've been in the caverns on three separate occasions in the last week...which is more than the entire three months previous. Solsar and Forseral are also popular places.
Really haven't fought much on Ishundar, Searhus or Esamir since the patch...don't know why that is. You're probably seeing the same places held by the same empires because that is the terrain people are familiar fighting on (Have the Air Towers/Sniper spots/overland routes/etc. planned out). As there is more diversity in warzones, you'll see the continents begin to shift slightly when people get their bearings for fighting on these places that they didn't usually fight on (how many TR have extensive field experience with Esamir?). |
