For me, the big negative is seeing people leave that we have played with for years and look like they will never return. (Recent people being Sladow and Terarii). I'm still fairly new to the high-rated scene maybe around 2/3 years which isn't that much in regards to others. As there are only a few 'decent' players we all play with each other 90%+ of the time, which has resulted in making some good relationships. So seeing these people just pack their bags and leave is sad and negatively impacts the high-rated community.

Not that long ago you could easily get high-rated games on the weekends and sometimes during the week. The above results in the only time there is a decent game is when Farms is streaming. Even at the moment when Farms is streaming, it feels like few people are playing.

I have no intention of quitting FAF, as I have very fond memories of this game (this is the first game I ever remember playing as a child). The only reason I'd quit would purely be because of a lack of games, or if the game is just too unstable for whatever reason.

I think the community is still great there are always new people trying the game but what can we change/revert to entice old players to come back, without losing new/existing players?

1 simple word to round this all up. Yikes

@drpatrickstar

This type of logic is why we need instructions on shampoo.

No would be an auto draw every time As sladow said before there are tons of setons games hosted already don’t need to have more in tmm.

Thank you for this post @Sladow-Noob, it was most helpful.

@xayo said in My thoughts about balance:

I agree with @gabitii that the t1 sub change (along with torp def change) often leads to very turtely navy gameplay. Yes, rushing a frig to kill bp is still good. Yes, having some frigs to go raiding and for radar is still good. But on smaller maps without a lot of frig raidable mexes, spamming subs is now the way to go. In many of my recent games the player that build more subs at the cost of less frigates than their opponent won early navy control.

I also agree that the aeon destroyer is no longer good. People who think its a good unit haven't played in 2 patches. Especially in destro vs destro battles sera and cybran are for sure better.

Spikey tested Aeon destro vs Cybran desto and Aeon won every time I believe.

Damn you lot have a lot of spare time

@gabitii I agree with the majority, but unfortunately under this thread there will be two clowns talking nonsense: Mr. 25 Janus and Mr. Groundfire against the stealth fleet, which will nullify all discussions

Your the one who sounds like a complete clown with this comment.

@thomashiatt This is the first time in ages a group of people have got together to change their names similarly. Idk how they are constant

Hi guys

I think it’s fair enough, Pepsi couldn’t get any money bec of sanctions so he got a few pixels on a game. I don’t see what the huge fuss is over. Im sure he would’ve preferred money also.
