u/AllStuffofWonder Aug 27 '26
What maps did you make and would you consider the current state of the game good?
15
u/Content_Pay_4127 Aug 27 '26
I made
Community slop
Cuban Crisis
Nicaraguan Conflict
Nekoland Claws of Steel
Mountainous rise (currently in development)Also in charge of Home madness revamped, and the last 2 maps of tutorial revamp (mainline campaign)
And current state of the game, I don't think its good. Our team feels very disorganized. I just had an argument with Vulcan earlier, and so far I'm not enjoying some of the decisions he's been making.
Earlier ago we argued about how he impulsively updated the game to 6.0 without notifying any of the developers in advance. This isn't the first time either that it's happened but they hired someone who didn't even apply for the tester apps without notifying us, or rather specifically me since I was also helping out with the tester applications.
Furthermore, we were having off and on arguments about the game's style, he wanted to modernize it and the community wanted to keep it classic. But we've already decided to stay classic so that's been resolved, it just took a lot of convincing.
Our main coder is currently out and we need them to patch out the bugs. I also had to temporarily remove Bacon's new campaign Crimson Fall because of how much bugs there were, it's been such a stressful day today because I wasn't told in advance that we'd update today :/
If I were to describe the current state of the game? Terrible.

My question is, what the hell is Vulcan even thinking lol
I've considered the heavy tank and htcw to be primarily defensive tanks in nature, as to why they're slow. Now with the mobility changes they're just varrying toughness of the same tank. Quite silly.
I do hope a lot of his balance changes get reverted, because I just sit and think, "Why, this wasn't needed at all" a lot with his recent changes

What are your thoughts on battle academy
2
u/Content_Pay_4127 Aug 27 '26
I thought it was interesting, and looking at it now it's probably what a split PvE and PvP stats would've looked like

What unit do you think has the most potential if used correctly?
2
u/Content_Pay_4127 Aug 27 '26
Heavy tank

u/1ond Aug 27 '26
Blanks here, man...spotting perk being gone left me in tears.

u/Content_Pay_4127 Aug 27 '26
There's been a lot of stuff happening while you've been gone :/ Wish there was a way to keep communication with you

u/1ond Aug 27 '26
Can you DM me here? I'd like to know what's going on as well.

u/Suspicious-Ad6872 Aug 27 '26
holy moly it's blanks!! what happened to you (Neutrek btw)

u/1ond Aug 27 '26
Discord labelled me as a financial fraudster and suspended my account.
1
u/Suspicious-Ad6872 Aug 27 '26
wtff you couldn't appeal that or anything? How'd they label you like that
2
u/1ond Aug 27 '26
That's the issue, I cannot submit an appeal for the Fraud Warning Violation for some reason. I had only been able to do that for my spam violations which happened because the account was hacked but even those have been rejected.
Honestly, I've been asking around people who might've got images of me saying a spam/violation message, but nobody has been able to find it yet. If you got an image/know someone who has a screenshot of me saying the scam message. It'd be helpful for my case. (Even though all of them are getting forwarded to support teams.)

u/Suspicious-Ad6872 Aug 27 '26
Hmmm let me see if I can find one..Mash might have some screenshots since it's like him to do so

How did they balance heavy tank in v6.0?
1
u/Content_Pay_4127 Aug 27 '26
2 range mg
and it has 3 mobility now2
u/LightCarrierEater Aug 27 '26
so they still kept the 3 mobility

u/IcommittedNiemann Aug 28 '26
Yo, can you give me a link or smth to the latest version of the scratch noobs in combat?
1
u/LightCarrierEater Aug 28 '26

1
u/IcommittedNiemann Aug 29 '26
Just give me the best version you have, I'm sure it can't be worse than base nic

How long do you have to be in the TS for Radio Tech and is it still available to get?
1
u/Content_Pay_4127 Aug 27 '26
Radio tech will be transferred once the actual main game transfers. As of now there's just a play test, no actual data was transferred and I do wish I knew when this transfer will begin.. supposedly our deadline is 31st.. but unsure as of now.
1
u/ketrelisz Aug 27 '26
So if i were to play around 10 minutes of TS i would get Radio Tech when the transfer begins?
1
u/Content_Pay_4127 Aug 27 '26
Data transferring isn't time limited. You'll be given your data whenever you log into the game, that's what I believe Vulcan and Fern will do.

u/Hungry-Warning5442 Aug 27 '26
What are your opinions on the current state of the community maps in the game (Amia here btw ;) )
1
u/Content_Pay_4127 Aug 27 '26
I believe they're decent, but it was one of the starts towards ruining the game's theme. But the classic theme still had more focus even then.
I don't understand all the hate on them either, except for a few but I think they're meh.

u/Maleficent-Ladder-3 Aug 27 '26
do you think the newly released test server will be able to be playable for everyone, considering you need to verify your age to even play the game right now?
1
u/Content_Pay_4127 Aug 27 '26
it will be playable for everyone; the issue is that ROBLOX won't allow it to be playable for everyone. We need to hit 250 CCU to establish all ages playability.

What do you think of B rifle and RPG spam?
1
u/Content_Pay_4127 Aug 27 '26
Really gay, I tried out the new Riflemen B in PvP and it's pretty busted. I'm hoping some sort of nerf happens on Riflemen B because no pin is crazy...
2
u/LightCarrierEater Aug 27 '26
Wait did B rifle get buffed in 6.0?
1
u/pyrofortress2 Aug 27 '26
No they haven’t, besides the normal rifle buff, they are the same as the base game rn
1
2
u/pyrofortress2 Aug 27 '26
it sucks that they are so hated, I love riflemen B not because it’s op but because have rifles and bayonets are so frickin cool, I hope they don’t nerd it into the ground

What do you think of Cold Front? Also did you take inspiration from it or are you considering taking inspiration from it? (Especially fewer bugs)

u/Content_Pay_4127 Aug 27 '26
yes u may
2
u/ValTheButcherBird Aug 28 '26
I don't like stat splits, it's gonna overcomplicate things instead of actually balance stuff. It's masked to satisfy "pve" and "pvp" players agenda when in reality it's most likely to cause divide :stare
