      @thewreck you can lose like that all the same because you were late to scout t2 or t3 air, or a t4 rush while you're ecoing up more.
      the only difference is that it's actually easier to scout nukes because u have t3 spy planes and omni at that point in the game.

      t2 air is way harder to scout and react to than a nuke. I even frequently scout a nuke after its done and i still get an smd up in time

      i actually have a mod that gives nukes a super obvious icon and it helps a lot, you should get one too if you haven't already

      frick snoops!

        @gabitii Sounds like youre more annoyed that in a fullshare game, yeeting your ACU into the enemy to do damage is kind of OP because it only robs the enemy team of 1 person of APM and solidified the eco?

        I dont see how any ACU doing late game damage in a one way tele trip (which changing the tele time wont stop) is different to someone making gun lots of OC and yeeting themselves somewhere sensitive to do as much damage as possible which ends in a com bomb, and the enemy team needing to make one less HQ to scale T3.

        To each his own I guess.

          Shall I send u bunch of replays on setons for example when air player stops air for 30-50 seconds upgrades tele and kills ur grid whenit is like 20th minute?

          Are we optimizing for the average game, or for the exceptions?

              What if the laser upgrade is more like the 2nd gun upgrade for Sera ACU? More against units than for telesniping.

                Guys, it becoming fucking horrible of how broken is telemazer, is nothing to react properly on telemazer, I have no idea of why teleport was buffed. I am not against teleport mechanics. On the big maps with full share it is fucking imbalanced shit. cybran acu can just fly over the map and kill everything which is not covered by anti-tele. Why u even give cybran such an imbalanced mechanics? I mean why is it so hard to make teleport and lazer in one slot? You on high rate are "gentlemen" and do not usually teleport, but there are guys in 1000-1600 rate who do it every fucking game. Why they do it? Cause it is imbalanced, in full share games you basically do not lose anything except for resources invested in it. But it does it is nothing compared of what cybran acu usually kills. Please just put teleport and laser in one slot. There is a reason why sera acu tele is not op and it is because advanced nano-repair and teleport are in one slot. It would also be op if it was in one slot, why not give sera such an option?

                                    Yeah why not giving then each faction such an op teleport, why only cybran has it? Why cant you tele billy ACU as UEF or ACU with advanced nano-repair and gun splash as sera? Then it would have made more sense cause anti tele would have been a "must". But if we do not have cybran in our team and the enemy does, we MUST spend 30K on anti tele which the enemy does not, and they have one exp more just because they have cybran in the team. I do not think this is a good experience for the game

                                      @snagglefox what's the build time on billy nuke upgrade? I think it's fast enough that you can tele one way axe the tele for billy and go to town.

                                      Telemazer is just easy to do

                                        If telebilly existed it would put teleport on UEF tech arm so it would functionally be impossible to teleport in hostile zones to billy more than once. Everything critical would be protected by shields which can absorb a singular billy anyway, beyond things like bp around navy which would require 4-5 tmd.

                                          Because factions do not have to be equal. If they all got similar abilities, they'd just be reskins of eachother.

                                          we MUST spend 30K

                                          Again with these arbitrary mass numbers you're seemingly pulling out of your ass.
                                          Stop it. Get some help.

                                            Stop insulting, I have never said anything personal to you. Lots of people told you why on big maps it is very expensive to make telemazer useless. Ok one pd costs around 500 mass, to instantly kill cybran ACU so that it does not deal ANY damage, it will take around 20-30 pds, dependent on type of pds. It costs 15K mass. Then take minimum 3-4 places where cybran ACU can theoretically teleport. Thats how I take 30K mass. It is minimum, not average. If you do not spend minimum 30K mass, the telemazer will pay off.
