Horde mode feedback
So what do you think about the new horde mode introduced as the new weekly mode? Personally, I love it! ❤️ I had a blast playing it so far, but I have also talked to someone who hates it. In my op...

@benn1nat0r im happy to discuss this stuff! i do like that bfn returned to the more colorful artstyle. I like that there are more suburban maps. The game definitely feels like pvz. The music is nice. And I used to be against sprinting, but I think it will be a nice change of pace, if it is added in correctly.
I was willing to say goodbye to variants. But the upgrade system that was put in their place does not provide nearly as much variety as variants did. Most of the perks feel like gimmicks rather than anything interesting.
My main problem is the gameplay. From what I understand, the lower damage makes BFN a much slower, more team oriented game. I basically have to stick near teammates to succeed most of the time.
The problem of having no Damage Dropoff is that in allowing players to snipe with no incentive to get closer, it ends up creating these fights where players are constantly hiding and shooting behind cover. And because damage is so low, these fights can be very long and slow. Then there are other factors like healing and sprinting, which allows player to escape more easily. For me, it makes the pvp very unsatisfying.
With the gw games, i felt that most characters had an overall forgiving TTK that allowed players to react somewhat. I think if damage dropoff was added, they would probably have to increase damage a little, but it wouldn't be too high, and it would not intrude on the map designs. For example, soldier or corn could be able to deal up to 9 damage, instead of constant 5, 6, or sometimes 7 on critical hits.
@Pheesley Healing everything a thousand times more difficult, the fact that TTK is not insanely fast is good, but it makes the person doing healing almost immortal, I think DDO is just simply the most important thing possible, he would leave the job of balancing the characters much easier, see the electric slide, which is a good character at close range, but in the long range it still ends up doing better due to the lack of DDO and the sprint, particularly likes the mechanics, but does not have limitations and difference in speed for each character are by far what else makes the mechanics look nauseating.
- @gametrieuk I pretty much agree with you on everything. Electric slide has become a real pain with her super precise and stronger primary.
