And it's really a random change that wasn't needed. It's maybe time to revert it.

For all factions. The change wasn't needed in the first place, T1 was one of the most balanced thing.

I checked with the 3599 DB and the only faction that didn't get +.1to the tank was Cybran... so, I won't -.1 to them either.

I personally feel balmyFA shouldnt be in pool. Its randomly undulated terrain is very annoying. Pds, auroras or any direct fire units will end up most of times hitting just ground. Height differences are ok, as long as u can tell where they are without huge effort (like: this is hill, this is mountain) but when entire map is just randomly turned into bumpy terrain, its annoying as heck to play.

How many times do I have to explain this to people?

Medusas have high arch fire. This means the projectile is fired at the highest of the 2 possible arcs to hit the target. Because it's the high arc, instead of the low arc, there is a lot of "air time" before the shell hits the ground/target. This is the time it takes gravity to decelerate the shell to a stop, and then pull it back down to earth. If the projectile velocity were INCREASED, the would take gravity LONGER to decelerate the shell to a stop, and LONGER to pull it down to earth. Higher projectile velocity is only better for units that have low arc. What you want is lower projectile velocity.



thank god its like that, thats what FA makes FA. PHYSICS YEAH :)
