Mindustry Hex PvP: Return to Serpulo

[@nico_b.999]

FINALLY some Serpulo vids!! Thank you

[@furkankarl1446]

Finally. There was no one left playing pvp and sharing it, on serpula. Thanks man

[@zanzibarzy2877]

Nice vid! Having the swarmers actually consume enough ammo for you to feel it would be nice. They absolutely need some sort of nerf like you suggested, so oppressive, a small investment providing so much DPS and coverage. Units in general feel weak, especially since it's annoying to use T3 ground with their bad pathing and slow speed, so you're practically stuck with zenith+flare compositions in a proper battle

[@ceraselachirita3309]

Hi zanz why you havent play eviction for so long ? And 2 swarmer are actually ok the problem is surge surge nerf =balance game the blast and pyra are so bad not eve 1 t1 is not kill in at least 1 sec it take 2 sec to kill it with blast/pyra

[@ceraselachirita3309]

Same with other weapons that could be good bat are bad :(

[@ceraselachirita3309]

[@binathiessen4920]

It's very interesting how the meta has shifted. I didn't know that pyro's recipe had changed.

[@bobby_ridge]

[@alex2635o]

[@morrigancollins2092]

Instead of unit damage reduction, increase unit build times to prevent early Flare zerging. The current state you have set up promotes stagnation and crash cheese.

[@larofeticus]

The problem with the rule options available is it applies to entire categories. I can increase the build time or expense of _all_ units. I can decrease the damage of _all_ units or _all_ buildings. No good way the surgically target just the overpowered stuff without causing desync problems. And the developer has F'd off for two months now, so I can't even argue about balance fixes. Having just a simple little boolean rule that disables all crash damage would be wonderful.

[@morrigancollins2092]

@@larofeticus Honestly? Increasing unit build times across the board isn't a bad thing. It'll require more careful planning and expenditure of forces, making players more sensitive to losses, but with the greater amount of unit control that came with the "We want to be an RTS but we haven't figured out control groups" patch it provides a better balance anyway.

[@denchaplay8034]

Bro, thanks for the video on serpulo

[@alefgcf173]

Good content.

[@nikolayyurchenko5075]

Classics! Nice!

[@nomanrulesalone]

I think you were too concentrated in attacking orange with ground units , you could just attack with zeniths and finish orange quickly so that you can attack green easier

[@ALEXANDER-ml2wx]

broo waiting for thi sooo longg… btw not two months about 4 montha

[@elonmax404]

How do you control units while staying in place?

[@shalvei_]

1:16:08 I get what you mean though, that was a drawn out and painful death there, mauled by T1s, I'd be displeased as well if I was in your place

[@christophermccutcheon2143]

Shame there's no "kamikaze" command. Then you could just logic a flare to grab pyratite and kamikaze on whatever structure. At the moment I need a tower to shoot the flare down

[@larofeticus]

Oh goodness no no no. Wrong. What you describe would be bad, terrible, and unfun. Unit death bombing is too powerful, especially given the core destruction kills all buildings in a hex mechanic. It can't be defended against with a reasonable cost and would degrade every single game into only flare bombing is viable. When v7 first dropped, it _was_ like that, anyway, via unit crash damage. Any hex could be taken regardless of defenses by moving a big enough pile of flares over the core. They get shot down and crash damage it to win. It was degenerate gameplay, and luckily I was able to lobby for a game configuration rule to turn off crash damage. So now, luckily, people get to play with other game content too, and not only flares.

[@christophermccutcheon2143]

@@larofeticus fair! I'm thinking more like cool shit I can make logic do rather than the balance

[@User-zh8rp]

Watching how you talk about balancing the game and upgrading you economy with some people in the yelling at each othe because one of them did something wrong is hilarious, like in 15:00 where someone gets angry on the other one

[@User-zh8rp]

And in 19:00 he asks you to join and is harassing you. Its just hilarious how you dont care and continue doing your stuff

[@User-zh8rp]

Invite him*, not join

[@larofeticus]

Learning to ignore the chat is a form of self care and wellness.

[@vishipsherrah]

Velas can heal each other. Don't send them one by one

[@LinFengLulz]

oh god if I knew laro posts his games online I would have just solo'ed and not make cringey ass remarks

[@christophermccutcheon2143]

I'd probably pvp if schemas were banned by default
