Re: Would be nice if little utilized units got some love

Yes, you're all right. The ideas I've laid out probably aren't the best. The goal really was to generate discussion to help units that don't seem to see much play. None of these units are bad by any stretch. But a lot of them see very niche application although they're not necessarily a niche unit l...

Would be nice if little utilized units got some love

It seems that a lot of builds are pretty much "locked in" in terms of being the most competitive. Many units, as a result, rarely if ever see competitive play. It'd be nice if some unit costs/stats/abilities/upgrades were slightly reworked to make them more appealing for some cases. Primar...

Re: $500 to hire an engineer to fix soundbug

An interesting thing happened recently. I got the soundbug (Not surprising) but instead of quitting right away I opened game "settings -> audio -> set master volume to zero" (this was during-game) and I didn't crash. The music kept going, though, which was weird. Dunno if it was a fluke, b...

Re: Bugz

Can the flesh hook knockback range be made to scale with its level? So it has a very small knockback at lvl 1, and around T3 Lictor knockback range at lvl 10. Would make it less punishing in the early game where it's easier to wipe scouts but would also reward good LA usage. The LA tends to fall off...

Re: Tyranid bugs (pun intended) and ideas.

1. Tier 3 Lictor Flesh hooks don't activate (sometimes) when the target is at max range and the target moves out of range. The energy is spent and the ability gets put on cooldown, but nothing happens to the target. This also happens with the TMs master crafted bolter ability too. This has been a b...

Re: Hormagaunts

I completely agree. I just don't think they scale as well as other melee units into late game, esp without melee synapse, but they certainly have their place in the roster. Probably I just need to improve my control of them mechanically. Thanks for the explanations as well. So is that to mean that b...

Re: GK Plasma Cannon Dreadnought

it has poor synergy with the rest of the GK race that are mostly melee so it can't set up a great firing line and enemy AV teams will screen it well. Meanwhile it costs more than any other dreadnought (even more yet with maelstrom, literaly reaching super unit levels of cost)... I really don't thin...

Re: Make OM great again.

It's kinda funny to me that a discussion on OM devolved into an argument over the problems with IG. Instead of targeting the sent's cost/utility, couldn't it be balanced by reducing its weapon's range or sight radius? The problem seems to be that the sent can trade safely with enemy squads while GM ...

Re: Patch 2.9.3 Change log Preview

Thanks for all the hard work on the patch. It's clear you're aiming to nerf Tyranid early game pressure (esp. the 3x horm into 2x Rav build) but nids are kind of balanced between strong T1 and weak T2/3. These nerfs feel like they'd rob them of early initiative and if that happens they'll be pretty ...

Does this global still reinforce nearby squads? I tried using it near a depleted warrior brood and they definitely were not reinforced... It's possible they weren't close enough, but they were pretty damn close.
