Intelligence....

Postby QuietStorm » Fri Feb 02, 2007 2:09 pm

I'm beginning to wonder if the factors and abilites that have been hinted at with the Intelligence stats have actually and more recently been implemented into the game.

My biggest reason for this guess, hypothesis, or whatever you wanna call it has been due to the performance of my space shuttle character, Minicron. In order to unlock Strafe, I had to add a point of Intelligence. And I can safely say that no matter what happens, whether in an outnumbered mission or even strength, Minicron usually pulls in some spectacular scores.

Is there another feature that Intelligence holds besides the italicized text that appears on the Stat Upgrade page? Is there some hidden concept with Intelligence that allows the user to decide who to attack first due to their Rank statistics or possibly who is/isn't wearing Armor? Does anyone else have some similar performances from other characters using (or in this case, forced to use) Intelligence?

Curiouser, and curiouser....

That's extermely odd. As a L3 without a single point in strength you should be getting crushed. :-?

Maybe it wouldn't hurt to see if Scavendrill would do well as a repairer :-?

Make smart, fight better.

LOL!

Seriously though...I have seen the same thing...I think those without any intellegence will find themselves getting intellegence on my team. In fact I just looked at Star Sights numbers (one of the more intellegent members with 2 intel.) and lets say...he is quite high up in scores.

I currently have 4 of my bots with 3 int, 3 are repairers and the other a tank, and they compete pretty evenly.. now, to give the non-int users int and see if they pull ahead more, that might be worth checking out.. :)

Gave one of my bots 1 pt in intelligence and so far the results have suprised me (he's L3 btw)

Mission 1: 1,164xp and ended with 34$ health, autobots won.

Mission 2: 1,500xp and ended with 51% health, autobots won.
http://seibertron.com/heavymetalwar/vie ... _id=333634

Mission 3: 1,664xp and ended with 35% health, autobots won.
http://seibertron.com/heavymetalwar/vie ... _id=333697

Mission 4: 1,468xp and ended with 100& health, autobots won.
http://seibertron.com/heavymetalwar/vie ... _id=333784

In all the times above he was either 1st or 2nd for scoring on every mission. Will do some more testing.
