what about a weapon that builds terrain

[lich98]

I think it would be cool to have a weapon that you could use to build either decayable terrain or nondecayable terrain. that way if you defeat a large open area that the creeper was in you could be able to build more reactors and stuff. What do you all think?

[ontheworld]

This would probaply lead to extreme balancing issues... Especially when custom maps come out...

[Sqaz]

Just... everybody... Think back at the suggestions of CW1.

All sorts of new weaponry was being suggested, the majority would cost a lot or use a lot of energy like here.


Well... Did Virgil ever add a new weapon?


No


Well... Do you think he would suddenly change his mind, and throw a year of balancing in the trash can?


No

Being able to create your own terrain would ruin the whole point of reactor balancing. You have to think ahead and dig with maximum efficiency. Not build more terrain to get your reactor farm perfect.

and, terrain has infinite creeper resistance

[Ytaker]

That would destroy the purpose of map building, so no. Someone would build a map, perfectly balanced, and someone else would ruin it.

[lich98]

yes it wold be expensive but what if you could only build decable terrain so basically a shield that you can put a reactor on.

[Ranakastrasz]

... We already said it isn't going to happen. It would still ruin the balance of the game.

why not build a shield?

You can't put a reactor on it. It sounds like he isn't good at planning ahead and mazximizing energy efficiency... So he wants a new unit to do it for him.

Ohh, I have an idea. How about a weapon that is a super nullifier that destroys all emitters on a map.

[Ranakastrasz]

No No, How about one that gives you 2000 crystal every time you go into deficit? And you start with it on every mission?

I just use CE for that. ;)

[CobraKill]

O how about a instawin weapon so the game is useless!
