Future Changes regarding Upgrades und TC

[TKF]

Ah, ok. Yes do seperate the force upgrades from the ordinary creep upgrades and allow players to only upgrade creeps spawned by the player. I like that idea. Make force upgrades unavailable from the player and implement player upgrades that only affect creeps spawned by the player.

But because that seems quite weak there was the idea to give a chance to spawn a special creep each wave (which in this case could also be summoned by the Force, don't know).

You mean like for example there is a chance every time you apply a player upgrade to spawn a special creep each wave? Which creep would that be? Would it add a 5%? chance for every upgrade that the creep wave would send 1 extra special creep? Implementing this in the new player upgrades? Well I'm not against it. It could be a force owned special creep that perhaps is strengthen from the player upgrades (a small force tank or something?).

Could the special creep be?

Tank (mini light tank, 2 food)
1200 hp
700 range
300 melee dmg, 3s attack cooldown, splash attack

I would like steady spawn rate instead of random dice roll spawn based on %

Instead of adding a % chance that a special creep would be spawned on each wave, why not use a integer counter? 1 player upgrade, spawn 1 special creep every 20 spawns? additional upgrade, every 10 spawns or something like that? Add a 5 integer count for every upgrade for every spawn, when it reach 100, it's susbracted from 100 and a special creep is spawned on each lane wave. It's unfortunate it a team get lucky with the % chance bonus spawns :S. What do you think? Does average joe understand 5% easier than 5 production points of 100 for a bonus spawn?

Summary:

By all means seperate the upgrades from force upgrase, doesn't bother me.
Player upgrades only affect player creeps, I'm fine with that suggestion.
Special creep? Tank creep?
What if the production points was used to get a special spawn instead of % chance or getting special creep every wave when you have upgraded?
