Elimination Tournament 2

I like the way the game is going towards now, for example by making the upgrades (boots, gloves, etc.) free.
Then you can make funny combos with the guns such as shotgun and boots for hit & run, sniper and regen for camping or smg and faster reload for multi-combat situations.
Anyway theres still things that should be nerfed.

My opinions on items/upgrades:
-Shotgun: Pushback variates much i see, but sometimes u get pushed far far away even when your not even close to the shooter.
-Phasergun: It seems it deals 60 damage due to amplifier, when it actually says it deals 40 damage, so i suggest you fix it! ;)
-Minigun: The range is really too far and dmg is extreme, if you stay just a little in the rain your gonna lose about 60-120 hp.
-Boots: 40 ms seems a little too much really, even though it doesnt seem your walking that fast, but anyway 25-35 ms would be best i think.
-Phase thingy, cant remember name: I dont know if its too imba yet since people never really uses it, but what if a guy takes a flag then the moment before he scores he uses it.
Wouldnt he in a way then almost become invulnerable?
-Acid: Poison make you too slow, either duration or slowness should go off a bit.

Also im not sure wether you removed bounty or not, but hell you never get any gold at all to shop for.
If you do increase the gold make sure to balance the map because more gold = more items = more chaos >:D = arenas need to be bigger!

Keep up the good work, i like the new speed of the gameplay! :P

Shotgun: Pushback variates much i see, but sometimes u get pushed far far away even when your not even close to the shooter.

Its starts off at 400 & gains +50 for every other bullet that hits you. Theres 8 bullets in total, so potentially 750, although very hard to get that.

You're right thou, perhaps I'll update it a little so the distance bullets travel diminishes the push back a tiny bit.

Phasergun: It seems it deals 60 damage due to amplifier, when it actually says it deals 40 damage, so i suggest you fix it! ;)

Hmmm?
Yea its meant to do that, quite strange you ask why :p
Deals 40 damage, if amplified gains +50% damage, so 60?

Minigun: The range is really too far and dmg is extreme, if you stay just a little in the rain your gonna lose about 60-120 hp.

Hmm well, I always pwn Minigunners, so not real sure about a nerf.
There very easy to take down, just annoying if they get in a tactical position & spam.

Boots: 40 ms seems a little too much really, even though it doesnt seem your walking that fast, but anyway 25-35 ms would be best i think.

Well the other Add Ons are very strong as well, 40 is only like +15% move speed.

Phase thingy, cant remember name: I dont know if its too imba yet since people never really uses it, but what if a guy takes a flag then the moment before he scores he uses it.
Wouldnt he in a way then almost become invulnerable?

Ah yea I wouldn't say thats imba thou.
Remember thou grenades ar eun effected by the Phase, so the'll annhiliate him.

Acid: Poison make you too slow, either duration or slowness should go off a bit.

It rapidly wears off, returning movement speed.
So starts off very big, but dimishes.

Also im not sure wether you removed bounty or not, but hell you never get any gold at all to shop for.
If you do increase the gold make sure to balance the map because more gold = more items = more chaos >:D = arenas need to be bigger!

Hmm, I always have to much gold, I could increase it a little.
New Arena's of different shapes & sizes will be added :p

Well isnt the amplifier supposed to take effect after you hit someone, else you might aswell just set the damage to 60 and remove amplifier.
I thought it was a gun made for supporter situations, but now its... "just-another-average-gun", see what i mean?

Hmm well, I always pwn Minigunners, so not real sure about a nerf.

No seriously i deals way to far damage and with that bullet length increaser (which should just get removed).

Ah yea I wouldn't say thats imba thou.
Remember thou grenades ar eun effected by the Phase, so the'll annhiliate him.

Well what if you dont have any grenades because you only could afford 1 because of the little gold you get and you've already used it???
This item is far too imba and is like a normal invulnerability potion item, thats why it should be removed.
It may seem like a cool feature to you, but you should seriously consider removing it.

I dont think you know how much people got raped by that gun yesterday when i played with Taur and Raging, if ur 2+ in a group your going down (which in ET1 would be pretty easy to survive).

Hmm, I always have to much gold, I could increase it a little.

Lets compare the gold in ET1 to ET2, in each time i respawn...
In ET1 i could afford 3 nades/medi packs + 1+ stun and in ET2 (with same amount of kills and time passed) i could afford only 2 nades/medi packs.
Well in version 0.99 or whatever it was the bounty was 2 gold and im not sure what your using now, but you should increase it to 6-12 gold.

Also you should remove the bullet length increaser add-on aswell.
Just like with that phase thingy it may seem like a cool feature, but actually just fucks up the game.
For example:
Shotgun + bullet increaser = aint no shotgun anymore, too imba.
Minigun + bullet increaser = sniper minigun, nice! xD
Sniper + bullet increaser = do you need this?
Laser + bullet increaser = again do you really need it?
Phaser + bullet increaser = nice, now you got a sniper + more dmg!
Acid or SMG + bullet increaser = ok maybe the only items it works average with...
Shrapnel + bullet increaser = havent tested...

The scope needs to keep the range the same as it usually is. The speed boost is fine enough...

ALERT ALERT. I mysterioulsy stopped spawning after my 20 something death. the other players continued respawning, but me blue, didnt. and also, some people think the sniper is bugged, it does like 90 damage without double damage.

Yea Ive seen that respawn bug appear before, I'll try & fix it.
Sniper deals 50 damage, it can be enhanced with Explosive Shells, Double Damage & if target is Phased.

Perhaps I'll split them up, I'd really like to keep the range boost as an AddOn thou.

I dont know is this a bug or something, but if you take a flag in crossroads and have about 3-4 boosters, you can fly with them over camera boundaries and then nobody can actually know where you and the flag is.

It was verison 1.1 when I played. :i

Ah yea there were some spots you can abuse booster, I think I've ironed most em of them out atleast. I'll try adding a few more pathing blockers etc.

The main issue with this is that, in my opinion, ET1 overshadows it by a mile xD
As its own game it's good, but in comparison, well, you get it
