Two Problems in 2k2 to be fixed

There are two major problems in 2k2

Improved Weapons:

Alright so lets see that you have a simple sword and the other guy has a 47 dmg sword. They are both at the same level. The guy with the 47 dmg sword kills the other person 3 hits while the other person hitted that person 10 times. The problem is that the improved weapons are too powerful that the battle system is very flawed. Its because the damage that the IWD scroll adds (+5 per improvement). I should suggest that it should +2 damage per improvement. Its not just about the weapons they have but its the battles. They end up quickly in 3 hits that it doesnt give a chance.

The Speed in Battles:

This is a big difference in the other problem I said. Many people are so fast that it takes forever to end a battle. Because when they are really fast its really hard to hit each other. I suggest that you should make a skill called 'Ready Weapon'. It decreases your speed but it increases your damage. That should fix the problem.

2 damage with each IWD? No, hell no. I did not pay 8k+ to improve my weapon to have it do very little damage. We earn our money, we should get every bit of the damage it gives. You say improved weapons are powerful, maybe the other people are just plain weak?

Also in battles, I can control my movement and hit someone, if you can't I don't see why everyone should suffer, take off your speed rings and fight like that.

The whole point of a IWD is to give you damage and make you kill faster. Stop complaining and play.

If you can't spend alot of money and time I might add getting your weapon stronger then you should be weak

It is not about thAT!
Noone cares how much time you spent in the money.
It is just not fair.
You should be able to only imrpove Daggers, since thieves REALLY suck.
Improving ONLY daggers would be better, but of course +2 damage thing would be included.
I support you Zeratul

If you don't care about how much we spent in money (which we had to EARN EVERY SINGLE BIT OF IT) then we do not care about weaklings that whine !

Some of you really need to learn about game design. It's not a matter of 'I paid for this so I deserve it' because nobody cares how much you paid. If the effect is unbalancing the game then it should be removed.

It's fair, maybe someone forgot to tell you that every IWD on your weapon adds 5kg to its weight :o

Unimportant. Trading convenience for power is not good game design.

For those who don't have 20 strength, carry a full suit of armor, and whatever else they might have, (hearts, livers, skins, arrows, etc.) a 40+kg sword is probably going to slow you down.

If you want to be strong get alot of money and upgrade your weapon jesus its not a balancing matter to much of a "I don't want to work to get better" matter.

Selzar · #14 12-22-2002, 07:42 AM

BUYING power is not right!
Maybe in a certain quest, or EVENT. You get an IWD or prepare!
But using Improved weapons in events / sparring events should be unallowed, because it unevens the fight.

I can;t believe it. Selzar, you are the one who wants more rewards for timetaking baddy kill (leveling)....now you want less benefits for timetaking baddy killing (money)?

I guess everyone wnats what is best for them, if they ahve alot of exp like in Selzars case they want that to count. And if they have little money like in Selzar's case they want that to make less of a difference.
