CCU, the community killer | Forums

I assume we agree on Peacekeeper being thrash. Most people do.

Well, I had to be a hundred times better to stand a chance against a Warden or Lawbringer. I can't imagine anyone being really threatened, they just blocked right and parried everything I threw. Now, differences are much less apparaent than before, there are no oppressive 50/50s and techs anymore that absolutely dominate anyone without them.

You have problems with things that were problems well before the CCU.

That means that the game has problems since it was released that has not been fixed.

all games have issues. The point being made is that the CCU is the correct direction to go, and your complaints are all things that were from before CCU, therefor, stop whining about the CCU.

Complaining that the CCU is wrong, but then only mentioning issues from Pre CCU just makes it seem like you were fine with those same problems as long as you got the win.

Suddenly, you aren't winning so much, so now it's a problem, because you're being affected.

And as I said, those problems are less and less apparaent. The game gets better, the problem is how slowly it does, and how ignorant some things they do are.

My example is the Peacekeeper vs Warden matchup. Pk was not buffed at all, her zone is slowed down, her light attack damage is weaker than ever, and her dagger cancel lost frame advantage. Warden received no significant nerf beside the general damage nerf. Yet, I think pk still has far more chance against Warden than before. That means the changes were good.

People don't understand that now the game is based on guessing what the oppponent is gonna do, not reacting. That means some characters have the advantageover others.

Another important thing about this is that this change has made some characters really strong and others are real trash. This patch has not been tested enough (I think it was just not tested). In my opinion CCU must be removed and game must be balanced other way.

The whole point of the CCU was to make general offense read based with more of a focus on offense being stronger and defense weaker.
So yeah, things being largely unreactable for most of the playerbase is the intended effect in action.

Also the foundation of the CCU was not aimed at balancing heros. The fact that some are better or worse off because of the CCU is not a point for or against it.
