Reclaim Being Nerfed

[Reaper Zwei]

I have only been here for a few months but over those months I've seen many people talk about reclaim needing to be nerfed. I really don't understand it though since I've seen no valid argument for it. Reclaim is not in the game soley just for kicks. The reason its in the game is for strategy's sake, and how potent it is will determine the strategies followed.

The argument I've often seen is that it buffs the defender. I suppose that would be the case if someone just sends wave after wave at a defensive line but I'd have to say if someone did that they are doing it wrong.

Anyway the reason I put this up is that I'd like someone, anyone to show me and the community a valid reason for nerfing reclaim because I simply don't see one right now.

It won't get changed because some whiners whine about it, I've never heard the arguement though..

In supcom2, reclaim was only worth 20%, rather than the 80% it is in FA.

Sorry bad title for the thread. I know its not being nerfd, just that I've seen many talk about it.I have heard the argument many times though not very many threads are made about it, just that I've seen many comment about it in other threads. for an example the T3 air thread in the Balance change section.

I want to use this opportunity to ask, just how much is it worth. i thought it was 90%, someone just said 80. Anybody know for sure?
its 90 according to database.

[Gorton]

It's 81%.

I am actually who was talking about nerfing reclime, but i only want to nerf reclaim rate, cause when engy reclaimes wrech you have about +50 mas income, and isn't that bit too much?

it will affect game in a good way, you can't just steal reclaim fast and abandon are, you have to secure that place at 1rst...
reclaim already deciding outcome of most of games...

Ditto ZLO on rate of reclaim.

I always thought it was odd that four completely different nations use the same material for their war machines.
Just food for thought..

Well, if you are simply using mass and fabricating 3d items out of it, exact material differences are not really going to matter.

Technically all 3 of the original races got ACU technology from the Earth Empire, which later became the UEF. The Seraphim had some alien stuff called liberiam crystals, but the Order convinced them that mass is better.
