Welp, time to make a post about minewars in general discussion, mostly because "Development Logs" isn't exactly fitting for this I would think. So, here we go, listing some of my personal problems with minewars right now. (This may be updated in the future) The following is EASILY my biggest issue with minewars right now.
Rockets
Okay then, this is easily my biggest problem with minewars right now. Rockets. Okay, riddle me this. What is the strongest weapon in star wars? A lightsaber. Okay then, riddle me this. What is the strongest weapon in minewars? A rocket launcher. Hmm, something seems wrong with that... Well here is a better question. Okay, picture this. I am a Jedi, and a rocket is coming towards my face. (Rockets are slower than blasters in star wars and this solution was given rather quickly, but I do believe it could be a little slower) Well, what do I do about a rocket coming towards my face when I am a Jedi? I use the force to toss that son of a gun outta the way. Now of course, if my wishes were to come true, it does not have to be the force to deflect it. It would be realistic that way, or you could just make it so you could deflect it with your lightsaber. Or anything. I also believe it should not one shot, but I don't care if that is changed. What should absolutely one shot with 100% certainty is plasma grenades.
Solutions to this problem:
1. Make rockets need ammunition to fire.
2.Slow down rockets when they are fired.
3. Increase cooldown after firing a rocket.
4.Make it blockable in anyway.
The following was contributed by Kanyay and I wholeheartedly agree with the post he made below, so I am going to copy and paste it here.
These were my suggestions to nerf the RPG on another thread.
Make RPGs damage the person that shoots it.
You can deflect a RPG shot only if the guy hits you directly with the rocket, except the rocket blows up and somehow bounces back to the person that shot at you. (Yes it duplicates)
My suggestion for this is that if someone blocks and the rocket hits next to them, part of damage that is supposed to be inflicted on the enemy is absorbed by the force. Making it so it no longer 1 shots.
Your idea about pushing the rocket away with the force would be another way to nerf the RPG
Also RPGs do not 1 shot me because of my superior defense level, just something to point out.
RPGs should be able to 1 shot people if they are caught of guard by the enemy, the RPG is a legendary, and therefor, should not be completely rubbish.
Speeders
Alright, this one should be pretty short. I believe speeders should not be as rare as they are, because in real star wars, speeders are not TOO uncommon. In mos eisly everyone has a ride of some sort. I have two options here for this. Option 1 being that you make speeders relatively still rare but you can now find them in chests. Option 2 being that you make speeders just a LITTLE bit rarer and introduce something else you can see at mos eisly in the movies. ANIMALS. Yes, if you pay attention throughout the movie you can see moments on tatooine where people are riding animals! For gods sake, you even see an imperial stormtrooper riding one. ALSO PLEASE make it so people cannot steal your speeder.... Make it so you can type a command to kick people off your speeder so they cannot steal it PLEASE. In star wars, if a random dude was sitting on my speeder behind me and refused to get off, I would just turn around (still sitting on the speeder) and shoot them! No getting off necessary.
Jedi/Sith
Alright, this one is not too big of a deal in my book, but it would make the server a little more star wars realistic if implemented. This is 100% optional. In the actual star wars, it is pretty uncommon to find a jedi or sith. Like, 95% of the population are neither jedi or sith, but imperials, regulars, you name it. But right now the only thing you CAN be are jedi or sith. To fix this I would suggest implementing special bonuses to the bounty hunter and smuggler options coming soon. (It is kind of obvious you know... It literally is a picture of BOBA FETTS SHIP and the MILLENIUM FALCON for crying out loud!) For example, give the bounty hunters an exclusive weapon like a jetpack, and let them come with free flamethrowers! (a downgraded version, because currently if EVERY SINGLE PERSON got one it would be way too op. The current flamethrower isn't as big a deal as the rocket launcher mind you, but still a problem.) And give the smugglers something like the ability to summon a wookie whenever you want? I don't know, smuggler does not have any REAL benefits in the star wars world, but hey, we need to let it have SOMETHING.
Keep in mind this one is 100% optional. This is the problem that by far bothers me the least.
