elbryanwyndon and I thought mastered engineer was underwhelming, so we propose to move it to unmastery, and replace mastery with this.

@sleek cargo
Golly.. whoever made this must be.. so cool..
ikr!
unemployed sentence
yo thumbs it up at LEAST
i did dw
thas more like it
im going to hurt someone
This certainly seems... interesting
How does the whole gas thing work
@sleek cargo
vehicles would require fuel to operate
and can be refueled by being near a gas pump station thingy
this would balance planes specifically
Do the gas pumps have to be specifically at ground level to operate
thered be a little fuel meter
nah nah they could be in the sky
but people can
gravity up
just like normal skybases
or mech up
or do any manner of things to get up
and camp the fuel station
because they KNOW theyll need to be back sooner or later
no they could work in a skybase
Doubt it's a good idea to allow them on skybases
which is why you build a small base with some defenses around your gas pump
counterpoint
you can already fly around
indefinetly
agreed skybases themselves are not hard to infiltrate
this is already a nerf
agreed w/ wyndon i mean
its cartoonishly easy to get into a skybase
Also are you able to just carry the fuel generator, place it and start refueling anywhere you want
assuming upon placing it has to charge to max before supplying vehicles
no it has to be anchored
not a long time but
and itd be really awkward to place midair
which
if people are already gunning for you
its a small map
5 seconds is long enough to harm a plane
that means youd have to come DOWN
i mean
u could also do it on a tree
where nobody is
and then fly away when they get close
that WOULD be annoying
the amount of abilities which can effortlessly get onto a tree
also people can just follow under the plane
when they go to a tree
okay
they simply
whack em
also all of this is ALSO APPLICABLE TO THE CURRENT PLANES
except they DONT HAVE TO LAND
like i do not understand the criticism here when like. is the current system more balanced lmao?
I'm not even criticising rn I'm just asking question
i think theyre good questions
thatd be up to the devs for balancing
but generally ones relevant to your abilities
and of course everyone would get more walls and floors
Am I able to get 2 gas stations
So always restricted to 1
yes
Are you able to fortify the gas stations
presumably yes
no
only the areas around them
the entire point is youd have to build almost a fort around it
that or maybe fortifiable but at a HEAVY cost
ye thats what i was thinking
the entire point is that its almost the equivelant of the ufo orb
Am I able to get more fruit launchers
its your CENTER
yes
but theyre particularly rare
like you max out at like
3-4
Would gas consumption be based on the size of the vehicle
maybe 5-6 if youre specifically trapper
yes
bigger vehicles need more gas
good job.
okay so vehicles are supposed to have a gas tank
that you can upgrade
to increase gas capacity
i just forgot to write it down
i left space in the middle of the parts thing bc i knew there was one i was forgetting but i just gave up trying to remember
Also are abilities other than just lava E able to affect engineer parts
Will archer's arrows not phase through parts
but itd be less effective than punches
but some bigger ones will do more
yeah archer arrows and stuff wont phase anymore
neither will mech shots
huh
So you can build yourself an armored little cabin and all of a sudden bh mas can't ragdoll you right?
correct
itd just youd need to get all of the resources to do that
but they could like
break it down
with enough shots
BUT it increases fuel consimption due to aircraft size right?
i assume this means bounty hunter
its meant to be like dos
normally you get a couple levels in
do a bit of havoc
and die
and then like
once every 2 weeks
you get rEALLY high in levels
Another question regarding gas station, again
and make some doctor robotnik type shit in a server
How long does it take to get a vehicle from 0% to 100% fuel
depends on how upgraded it is
and also
thats up to the devs for balancing
id reckon like
for a small plane
uhhh
lets say level zero fuel
they can do
4-5 laps around the map before coming back
around 5 full second of fuel
Nah it feels more like defender mas because the melee classes play out the exact same, you get a couple of levels, annoy people, die to midas, and once in a blue moon you get a final upgrade
exactly
The only difference is that you still doe to midas, it just takes 2 seconds longer
thats what it was mainly based off of
is defender mastery
thus the leveling system
i just figured more horizontal progression abilities would be cool
I hope it isn't as poorly balanced as defender mastery
thats up to the devs
im a game developer myself but like
i dont know the numbers
in abilityw ars
so thats why i didnt write any down explicitly
i dont know what feels best
so im leaving it up to the devs
brodie talkin like he the anton ego of ability wars 😭

"I don't like Ability Wars, I LOVE it, and if I don't like it, I don't Upvote"
because
building is also free
so if repairing costed wouldnt you just wanna
break and replace the thing
yea
i get it im jusrt thinking how op repairing a fortified part would be lol
but tbh theyve earned the right to be that op
if theyve gotten that far
yeah fortification would be PRICEY
Is this an engineer mastery mastery, an engineer mastery rework or smth else
Title could point to both
Engi mastery rework
mastery rework
Drink the stink
Very cool!
But I have an idea rework for laser, so that it can be used as a weapon:
With one laser it shoots a beam that damages players standing nearby it over time with medium-low damage (maybe 2-2.25 per second) (a particle effect at the spot where it lands to make this aoe more clear). It can't deal damage when placed on top of a Seeker.
When you put two lasers facing each other, they don't deal damage and instead act like that tripwire mechanism.
because we do actually need a second weapon for planes 😄
I never noticed how badly Engineer needed a rework.
The Mastery parts aren't even that OP.
also why patch the flying ufo when u can just patch the knockback bug that enables it
flying is fun, but knockback bug abuse is not
So almost like Stardusts thing
That reminds me I have a design where I literally make a plane and have my friend sit while he's stardust and we beam people
So thatd be rad
i am the friend in question guys incase you were wondering)
hi friend :)
hello friend
This gets an upvote from me, not just because its the single highest quality post I have seen in any suggestion forum of ANY GAME, but it also keeps old engineer, so I can still do my old shenanigans.
Ty ^^
Need drink to get up so i can see if this is still flopping in tester suggestions
Is this a ratatouille reference
yes
W suggestion
Yes
real
its DEAD!!
Oughhh
anything for an engineer buff
Dw I read the first slide ❤️
im so lucky i didnt get more art for this w the amount of people not reading it 😭
Yeah
So lucky as well
Shoukd have said cjc3000 instead of idiocrasy nobody knows that name
understood mr 3000
whose idiocrasy
probably some loser
thrusters are a great idea TRUST me they could work like piston where you click it and it activates except its not a piston and it pushes whatever its attached to and work like a toggle or like it activates for 3 seconds
you know
We need this
Engineer mastery is boring as hell
This sounds amazing
I originally thought of an idea where engineer would have more items but only have a certain amount of slots to have items but never decided to release it into
Suggestions
REAL!!!!
@glass ore
please speed i need this
ain’t reading all that but peak
suggestion underestimated W
lalala
I want to hurt you
no thank you
hi glitch
this would make engi fun again W
sup
real
making desert more engi friendly btw..
(real)
(really real)
