Okay um
It's quite obvious that gameplay was second priority here.
Few things that stand out for the 10 minutes I played:
- Gun play is boring
- Gun fights take 10 minutes because you can't ever hit anything because of the rayprojectile-like weapons and the amazingly huge spread on the guns.
- Health regen is so immediate that even if you hit someone, which is pretty rare with the pistol, they immediately regen it.
- Ammo counters aren't readable on the white/grey surface of the map
- For a first timer it's very unclear to what I'm supposed to be doing
- Everything just feels so slow and unresponsive
I feel priority has been given to 'features' rather than 'fun' and 'gameplay'.

Silent the starter weapons have bad accuracy, so don't worry about that.
Also Poly will explain soon how the objective works. |
|
|
You see, that's kind of my point @iSython. There shouldn't be any explanation necessary, really. Good game design, which, I admit, my past games haven't always had that either, teach you through gameplay and not instruction.

"Silent the starter weapons have bad accuracy, so don't worry about that."
considering the starter weapons are what people will be using for the majority of their time on the map id say this is a major concern |

It's a pistol, it's supposed to be bad -_-
Besides you get a free gun in the shop thats way better that the pistol |
|
|
|

Pistol should be useful, not useless. Not the best gun, but a good sidearm.

Guns/gunplay aside, how does everything else fare with you SS, my friend? |
|
|
-buildings ok, it looks cool, triangle terrain is sorta nice, a little bland maybe
-gun models, from what ive seen, nothing i didnt expect from rat - kinda bland but whatevs, not that important
-guis are nice but i dont see why they have to be tilted, makes it annoying to read

Guns are dope, the raycasting or whatever it is now veers off right when you shoot it, and the place doesn't exactly feel like it's new.
There's no explosion once the timer runs out, which is a huge letdown, as I'd have liked to see one, and it'd feel like we actually accomplished something.
I also don't like the whole "capture the tower to chat or whatever" feature. It's just not needed, and just restricts players.
The whole place feels like it's trying to be Borealis II, while at the same time being something else. Don't get me wrong, the design of the game is nice, but it feels clunky and slow, with a lot of unneeded features added in.
-Common Sense: Use it. |

For the other side btw |
|
|
i never thought something on roblox could degrade so low the the point wherein the guns have technologically gone backwards - the fort is an absolute joke. |
|
|
Haven't really done that much gun play but I've said before I thought there was too much spread.
Regarding that whole discussion about 'Pistol is bad' I have to agree in a sense, while there is also another free gun in the shop, future weapons (i.e More expensive ones that you'll get later on) should be seen as alternatives rather than straight up upgrades, otherwise all you're doing is just impending the new players and it just generates this whole imbalance problem. |
|

Also, given that the game clearly seems to have some sort of influence from Halo perhaps it would be more suitable to go for a health+shield style of play: A very weak regenerating shield and a health bar that doesn't regenerate at all. |

From what most people seem to be saying, we need more WIJ-like bases.
xd =] |
|
|
no
you just need a base that is fun and has good flowing gameplay
sadly apparently that is limited to wij bases
-{===>SS |
|
