no, since chitz is simply a Terror Drone on steroids 

Perhaps by reducing the damage of Chitz's parasite weapon to 0, and adding a dummy weapon with ivanbomb logic to chitz. What happens is when chitz attacks, he fires the dummy thing that will kill the target, instead of the parasite stuff. There are numerous problems with this however. A better solution would be perhaps a damage over time thing that will keep damaging the unit. Chitz needs to be impossible to remove for this to work tho. I do not know if any of this would work, I didn't mess with terror drones that much.

I don't know if the mentalmeisters are working on something like that, but I'm making a map called "Attack Of The Clones (2-8)". This will be a fortress/meteor shower/infantry war map. Urban scenario, one player in a very well defendable base versus 7 others. The 7 players will have 6 cloning vats each, while the defending player will have a psychic beacon in his base, that will activate within 1 hour after the game starts, and mind controlls the whole map.

As far as I know he could get vetrancy in version 2.0

" * Map 'Country Swing (2-4)': obsolete ore type is seen on this map " if its the spiky ore than I have seen it in at least one other map .

Killing Fields is actually insanely easy (even by my standards) given the faction and late place in the campaign. Aside from shorter intro, what other changes for that mission?

[Petya]

I've played Killing Fields, but as I've seen it doesn't have any other changes.

[doctormedic]

We wont see any changes for the supressor are we?

[Tyhednus]

Why is the Stalker slower in BR2? Did it move too fast in BR1?

[Protozoan]

Why is Jet speed getting nerfed?

[Atomic_Noodles]

What's there to change on the Suppressor? 

 

To be more vulnerable and clunky since he's a "Siege" Infantry & he's in a power armor.

 

To make Anti-Air Weapons more viable.

[UprisingJC]

Any possible changes to Zephyrs? In damage or price?

 

Amassing them can be a pain to most of the sub-factions and it only costs 950$ for each.

Just asking.

They can be a pain sure, but i do not think they are op at the moment, though they could be better in B2 because of more use of the new zephyrbot which is now a combination of cryofield and zephyr beacon and are now free aswell + last longer too 10%
Perhaps a small increase in prize? 950 -> 1000... but its not my call to make and i'm personally ok with Zephyrs at the moment.

I think its best to wait for B2 to release and play for several weeks before we judge and suggest about B2 balance.

Will humvees be removed from Singularity or not? I know it's an American vehicle, but according to it's usage in other missions and the backstory on the site, it will be phased out by the robot tank at some point, suggesting that all allied powers could build it before then. Euro and PF forces in other soviet and epsilon missions lack them though.

 

On a similar note, will PF have anything to substitute the tsurugi in missions before it's developed like having access to the archon or stryker? Or are they left in the dirt until they start churning out those walkers? XD

[Atomic_Noodles]

Act 2 sees them moved to the USA as its Support Power Derivative. For Missions they're in the spot Robot Tanks fill.

 

Theres a PF Mission where you start out with the Tsurugi though but its pretty late in the Campaign.

Is it going to be a similar story with the Akula? It never appears in ACT I (at least to my knowledge) and the Russians have dreadnoughts instead. And back to the Tsurugi, PF without any kind of AA or repair vehicles is majorly disadvantaged in campaign as an opponent. Could be a way to make it easier for you as the player, but realistically I think they would have had something that gets replaced by the Tsurugi. Bring back the original IFV? Give them temporary Stryker/Archon usage?

[doctormedic]

If the nuwa cannon is supposed to be china's artillery then why does it get out ranged by defenses such as railgun towers?

No, it is a heavy assault gun on steroid. If it have artillery range nothing on the ground can stop it.

[Petya]

Nuwa isn't an artillery at all. It's a MBT with rather good range.

Pacific Front uses Strykers in Act One until late missions where they replace it with Tsurugi (Dragonstorm).

Anti-Air weapons are already viable?

 

As it is a couple of flak troopers can easily shoot down any of the Jets if they aren't the main target. Jets are expensive and lightly armored, they're supposed to be fast.

[Atomic_Noodles]

Well apparently they're not powerful enough so yeah.

Do the oil derricks in Petrowar give more money per seconds as normal?
