Game Balance, The Missions seem a little off kilter?

Postby Prowl240z » Sat Apr 07, 2007 11:44 am

I just strikes me as odd suddenly, or recently that the Bot/Con ratios of wins/losses has got so unbalanced... has something major changed? are there just that many more cons then bots? or is there some massive level disparity that I am ignorant of?

And i realize right "now" its even but as the day goes on it will get way crazy >_> I wish there was a graph that showed the daily numbers >_>

Mission results in the last 24 hours:
Autobots 512 vs 518 Decepticons

But look at arena too...

Arena results in the last 24 hours:
Autobots 616 vs 745 Decepticons

right, it's all about who plays when, and where, i know that between midnight and and 5 am GMT you can hardly find a bot at level 4,

however recently, it seems bots are increasingly hard to find, and having spoken to some other cons it seems to be mainly above level 3 that bots are near extinct, though this afternoon seems full of bots!

from the boards it seems to be the complete opposite, most of the brits who post here seem to be cons.

though it's also got to do when they play, some can do it at work but not at home other have that in reverse

I remember for most of the time after the last 24 hours scores went up, it was the Bots that seemed to have the unsurmountable lead. These days it seems closer, but with an advantage to the cons.

The vast majority of the Brits I know on here are cons. BUT, as Tam said, just cuase we come from the same place dosnt mean we play the same time, I tend to play most late at night/early morning, some tend to play most during the day.

You bring up a good point because I just leveled up several of my bots and they only do well in missions where they aren't outnumbered.

you've really got to play smarter right after a leveling up.

For me, my cons get slaughtered on Thursdays for some reason and are good the rest of the week.

my playing goes like this:

at work (and my work schedule's variable): never
at home: depends on homework and other RL stuff
at school: during Student Resource time and Computer Graphics, counting when I stay after to work on those projects, all the time

And I live in the Eastern Time zone of the States.
