Game Development: Stop. It's Hammertime.

[sabinati]

no it's not new.

How much STR is needed for palibashing now with the soak changes + hammer?

[stickman]

25 - 4 = 21

21*21 = 441 str needed to match the soak... you need more to deal damage of course.


if ram and sledge hammer stack, then you can break palisade with a baby blue eyes noobie. Which im wondering if that was the whole point of this.

That's not as bad as I thought, then. I have no problem with noobs on a ram, at least you have more than a minute or two to stop them.

...But why the slings?

[Garath]

cause sson they'll install a completely new system, but before they can they needed to remove the old one completely maybe?

[Phizuol]

I don't think the sling "problem" was dire enough to demand an emergency fix before a replacement was implemented.

Awesome, the game got updated, and the update itself is awesome too.
The only thing that hurts my heart is sling nerf. What if the damage formula would use MM as well as quality? For example, max_damage = 400/MM_value x sling_qualityx0.75.

Curious on your formula here....

A. Do you mean MD = 400/(MM x SQ x .75)

or

B. Do you mean MD = (400/MM) x SQ x .75

Niether make sense to me....with my stats although newbish

A. MD = 400 / (200 x 306 x .75)......400/45900 = .01 ....that would would make the sling about a useful as throwing tooth picks.... absolutly pointless

B. MD = (400/200) x 306 x .75 .... 2 x 306 x .75 = 459 ... this is actually higher than my max damage (before update anyway)

So from what i can tell you want them to either Delete slings from the game or make the even stronger than before... or did u just not test ur equation.

Yeah, my bad.
There is another formula, though:
sqrt(SQ)xsqrt(MM)
And some testing:
Newb, 50 MM, 50ql sling. ~47 damage.
Same newb, 100 MM, same ql sling. ~70 damage.
Farmer, 75 MM, 350ql sling. ~171 damage.
You, 200 MM, 306ql sling. ~238 damage. (By the way, 200 MM is somewhat nice result.)
So, with this formula you`d be still able to hunt, even if you`d need more stones for that.
And for min damage - that should be pretty easy - the min damage is calculated as max damage x MM/PER, and in case PER>MM min damage = max damage.
