Tylon Taylor Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 some say that physical better than energy and heat, others say not so much but just wondering should we bring shields back I mean we still have the module space Fordekash 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NAME_NOT_FOUND Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 Hmmmm, lets see... the game already suffers from a terrible tiering system in which 4000hp mechs run around mostly laughing at those under 3000hp because they bought the L+ modules.... so lets being back something which will make that tier gap even worse. #HowAboutNo Nefertary Meriten-Mut, OKI DOKI, Corvus and 1 other 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liam.M.Lucas_2020 Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 Pretty much what the guy above said. Shields were taken out of the arena for a reason. And hey, they aren't gone anyways you can still use them in the campaign and that should be good enough. Unless you just want them to add it back as an actual new item. (then it begs the question of what happens to the og sheild THATS STILL USABLE) OKI DOKI 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WinzKay Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 My concept design from a looooong time ago. That platinum shield does look pretty hot tho even to this day MasterChief, Monke King, xX0Pivo0Xx and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Androphonia Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 hmm, oh I don't know, physical mechs are so op, they aren't dominating the arena rn, let's get something to "turn the tables" a bit for energy and heat mechs, no no phys mechs suck rn shields would put them on par with the other types #HowAboutNo I polish rocks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shields would be for everyone, and only compound the problem. And with all due respect, shields from the old mech flash game were worthless anyways. I could beat it on insane without shields.

Nefertary Meriten-Mut Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 (edited) Los escudos viejos que consumen energía o calor serían totalmente absurdos después de recargarlos. El daño de arma ahora te dejaría sin energy o calor en la segunda ronda. Creo que es por eso que los escudos no se volvieron a emitir. Pero, podría ser un escudo con otro costo que el de energía o calor, pero ¿qué sentido tiene si ya hay módulos de resistencia?

Fordekash Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 I think shields would fit in to the current balance of the game. The original concept would work of having different levels of shields... Please don’t make them L-M... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XxLucky13xX Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 Hmm... I think I recall the old shields reduced incoming damage but added heat or drained energy based on what kind you had. I didn't like that and never used them. I think if remade a similar way they could work. Moderate damage reduction with the the blocked damage converting added heat or drained energy, there is a cap on how much damage it can block, and it only blocks damage directed towards your health, not heat damage or energy drain. This could help out energy and heat players if enough phys used shields. Since physical is so strong, many palyers would likely use these shields, making it easier for heat players to overheat opponents and energy mechs to drain them. However, if the balance changes Gato Games plan on implementing make everything viable, then it doesn't really matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaptorKing15 Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 I have a great idea. Heat and Electric can only use shields. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shoultz262 Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 Just don't bring back shields, it's that simple. It would complicate things anyway, and half of the people don't want shields back. rc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First, still doesn't seem like a good idea for me. Second, I don't think there's any way to control for that. How does the game logic work for this? Just the torso? Or the entire mech?

Fordekash Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 How lucky 13 described sheilds is how they worked. depending on the shield type 10%, 15%, 20%. If you were hit with 100 damage and had a 10% shield your HP took 90 damage and you lost 10 energy or with a heat shield gained 10 heat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rc Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 Let me ask a question. How long does it take you to do 3v3 season? For me, it takes about 1 hour to finish my daily 5 wins. Anything that prolong my matches, I say 100% no! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
