You guys are all stupid and wrong, so very wrong. Be nice!

The most fun balance of all was vanilla SupCom. I really miss fast-teching to T3 and then hunting down the enemy ACU with 6 siege bots, destroying all in my path.
And don't get me started on all the wonder and joy of the unpatched Mercy... I loved that unit so much, *weeps*.

I would have only reduce the projectile life to 1 so that only one tmd can stop it. The rest was ok

What kind of an argument is that? You're talking about faction diversity? I have never seen an aeon or cybran acu tml have you? Oh what about a seraphim Billy nuke.... Yeah those are veeeery common.

Looking at Gorton's poll: http://strawpoll.me/5376629/r The opinions are pretty one sided, 2/3 thinks it was op or worse. Small voting pool, yes but still.

The special feature of the tac pack that it's a mobile TML... Why does it need to be special in any way?

I've seen it used very effectively in a couple of games. Move around the TMD--> fire TML ---> TMD can't reach ---> profit.

Yeah sure why do we have faction diversity. We should play with only 1 faction...

This is the only sentence that make sense, even if gorton completelly missed that part in his poll.
You should have make something like :
Who think that actual patch :
was a good nerf for acu tml
Could have been different to keep some special feature of the tac pack

Exactly, nerfs tend to come in one big hit, where gradual changes are maybe better.

overall tho this entire thread seems like a waste of time, personally i like most of the changes, and the restorer is in a great spot right now, the sub could use some more hp (so it still take 3 runs from t3 torps) but it was way to strong it reg supcom.
i love faf, i don't always agree with what they do but the ui and scu/maa features alone make it worth playing, even IF it isn't perfect

i don't think it was balanced, but now it has gone from op, but not game breaking to barely better than reg tml
i would have liked a balance, like a slower muzzle velocity within the gun radius, so it was easier to dodge, and maybe the cost increase, but definitely not this.

Well it has nothing to do with liking it or not

Let see after some weeks/months what the will be the outcome. I guess that for a period of time the tml will be build out of habit till it will completely be lost in the void

At this point, I will come back at this post to proves you that even if something has been pointed out way before it happens and proved that the change was a failure the unit/feature will never be integrated again. Even though the balance team say over and over nothing is written in stone fact is ... it is.
