should the mappers bring back 5k hb with hcl command?

[lyf590]

can i do multiple vote on bringing back Hb? ^^
I voted yes but i know thats probably not gonna happen. The new modes are actually quite fun if u try it. Probably have to play 8.66 if i really want to play HB.

because normal mode needs to much time and is to slow.

Who said that there won't be changes concerning the modes?
There are already massive changes in latest version in comparison with the "normal" modes you probably know.

As it seems, most of you here do not realize that we don't just remove "high bounty" and leave the modes afterwards, which would naturally lead to disappointments. The removal is just one step from a couple concerning modes.

As i mentioned earlier, such a vote can never represent the whole community, but your old "high bounty" simply won't come back in the used kind of appearance. But that doesn't mean that we want to simply remove its aspects out of the game.
An issue, most of the current "gief hb back" posters do not realize. Good contributions involving suggestions will definitely lead to our real attention.
But i am honestly sick of telling this every time and getting flamed as liar afterwards, so if you go ahead that, don't complain that your "hb" experiences will be totally gone.

Thats it, and i guess i will not answer to posts about that topic missing the issues mentioned anymore.

People do not care what "new" mode you bring to Battle Tanks, if it does not have the same dynamic fast action as the old hb. Most hb players find normal runs to slow (not in game time but in action) and to simple. If you can develop a new game mode that makes the game fast and fun ill be behind it 100%.

Only thing i can think of is a mode that has creep bounties at 200% but tank bounties at 100% that would remove the "feeder" problem, also implementing you're reduced bounty for feeders.

Also i find normal mode to be perfect (yeah i know game time is not perfect but i don't think that can be fixed) it needs no change at all, all i would like to see is a new tank, gun, item, something along those lines because it has been months and all we have gotten is hb removed and a league beta.

You need to start a new thread about a new mode or how to make mode "x" better, i think there was one about this a long time ago but i think we need a new one so people can put their ideas in it.

How about increasing speed to 120-130% in normal mode? :wink: It will be funny and balanced... :lol:

Paladon/Velo, have you decided if it's appropriate to reopen discussion at this time?

Increasing creep bounty only would make creep only weapon/ creep strat unbalanced :o

and that's exactly why we wanted to gather first some general facts about why players liked hb and then working to get these facts balanced in the normal mode or another one. but the discussions back then never have gotten to the second point.

Which is why I would like to reopen the discussion and possibly have some of the DevBoard's discussion transcribed over for a basis to start. The explanation you guys three months ago, were just vague snippets... Add in all the fanaticism, naming-calling, flame, and little oversight to keep things on topic - it was bound to fail.

This is how the old topics kinda went, Why are you removing HB you people are stupid!!!!!!!! then someone would come back with, We are removing hb cause only noobs play it and its imba!!!!!

The talks never got anywhere we need an open idea thread, with ZERO bashing.

Then someone nice (like IlPalazzo) should start a new thread - this one is poisoned :roll:

[Paladon]

Yes & closed.
