@GoogleFrog you realise I am one of the best players in this game when it comes to air gameplay right? (out of my 1000 CA awards half of them came from air gameplay) Don't tell me how Likho works because it's kind of silly. My point was that nerfing factories to the point where you just use 2 units in it makes no sense. Napalm bomber is made of paper, swifts only good for scouting, Vamps (don't know what they are called now ) are useless because of the slow speed and because they only attack air units. The standard 300 metal cost bomber performs as expected and same goes for the Vulture. So 2 units from all of the factory are worth using and avengers from time to time are good. I mostly never use stilleto because it's a 600 metal waste of metal that dies fast. A simple skuttle does more damage and performs better on the battlefield so I prefer a factory switch instead of stilleto. At least it kills some things if you know what I mean.

The problem with zero-k is that there are a cluster of admins/moderators that always accept the same idea and never even playing the game properly in order to understand those changes. Is there a change for a better communication between us and you guys ? I mean I understand that the game is done and worked by you but you guys try to think that the purpose of this game must be according to what you want. You forget that this is Open source and not all things must be balanced by 2 admins that influences the other admins players. I tried many times to talk with you guys and to present that the current perspective you guys are working right now won't make this game better.

To continue this idea I want to explain that you ideological lock yourself from thinking that this game can be more than a 1 vs 1 RPS style strategy game. Tried hundreds of times to tell you that but there was no chance. You have always formulated an expression like "do it yourself" "code it yourself" "it's bad balance" " doesn't fit in our picture this kind of gameplay" and trying to move away from the subject.

So this is my perspective and I hope that I am wrong. If you guys continue to do the things you are currently doing there won't be a good future for Zero-K ( balancing game from a 1 vs 1 perspective only, not trying to integrate more complexity to the game, braking interesting features like commanders, removing mods that don't fit your profile, instant balance without reason). The statistics already shows us that we started to lose players in this game and for good reasons. You will have your "perfect" 1 vs 1 game or whatever you guys call it but will it be worth it by losing a game that can change the face of RTS games ?

I am telling you this because I know this game can brake the ice when it comes to RTS games if we do it properly. I never saw such complex mechanics in a game before even tho it doesn't have good graphics. I have a strong PC but still I come here to play the game because it's something unique. I hope you guys try to understand that I am not trying to insult what you guys are currently working on in this game. I am just trying to present you a better solution that I think will make this game work better for RTS community and for a better future in Zero-K.

Disappointed on the balance
