View Full Version : Worldshift
Hi all
I downloaded the Worldshift demo yesterday with low hopes, expecting another headache of a typical RTS. The only RTS I've ever really liked has been Rise of Nations. For a while now, I had been hoping to find a nice RTS with magic, but Rise of Legends had greatly disappointed me.
I played as the Tribes in both single player and Multi 1v1, and I have to say, I had a fun time. I like how you don't have to gather 1000 of 100 different types of resources and rush to survive. The abilities are pretty cool, and it seems like a nice game overall, and I look forward to purchasing it when it releases. Speaking of which, I live in Canada, and it doesn't seem to have a release date here yet mhm?
Well..Thanks anyway for making a great game :go:
Thanks for the kind words. The release dates are not set up yet for Canada, but I guess it shouldn't be to olong from now on. You can check at http://www.playlogicgames.com/ for any news in near future.
Yeah just codvx said, I wasn't expecting a lot from worldshift... But now i can't stop playing! The only thing you should change, IS THAT DAMN MOT*****FU*** adam in the demo. Ive been tying so much strategy And I was'nt able to kill him :(:( :bash:
But its a great game 9/10 (you lost a mark because of adam :evil: )
Yes, WS is really nice...but one big problem is there at the moment...
The patches come too late/when there is a long time for a patch, the volume isn that big how it should be for that time...also some old bugs doesnt get patched, too.
There are some hotfixes missing. Especially for the biggest PVP-problem, that some people disconnect in an unknown way when they are going to lose. The result is that you get some minus evaluation(?) in the ladder. And if that happens too often to you, you can find yourself in the ladder really far behind your old position.
When you are at about place 10, you only get for some bad played enemys only about 1-2 points...but when you are going to win, dc->about 12 points minus...
Thats really disappointing.
What I also want to say to the new map, there is no way to kill the assassin-boss without the best of the best items, the brute does come too fast, and its only a question of luck if you win that fight or not. Some ways to make it a little bit more easier: Put the run-ability of the boss from 30 secs to about 40 secs. That would help really much...
It happend to us that we had him at about 5-10% and he run away, we wanted to run to him again, and all the assassins out of the area have killed one after the other (there was no mana to kill the rest of them) But if there are 10 secs more everytime, the fight wouldn't that long, that there is also a way to kill him with lower-equipted people.
And yes we had the best items for there and did it only twice...The second time we killed Lan Zealot too. So the next problem. The hardest part of the boss is only killing the adds, are they dead, there is no problem anymore to kill the boss at least, the about 30-40% enrage mode or what that is, is also no problem, the damage isn't really interesting. Too easy for endboss, and the Assassin is too hard for second boss.
Please change there something. The loot is OK for Lan Zealot. Assassins one is....
I hope you will read that and do something against the problems, especially the hotfix for DM in next time.

That's not a big problem.
The big problem is that this game hasn't been released in the part of the world that counts.
I too would like to say I'm looking forward to this. Simplistic yet addictive gameplay backed up with colorful graphics and challenges that require thinking more than force organization. Most defiantly going to pick this up when it comes out in stores.
Now to just workout how to get my demo account working for my daily fix. Stupid thing just fried itself.
Yes i got serveral reports of this bugusing.
Can deliver names, times and so on.
IF BSS NEED THEM MSG ME.
P.S. I speak for my community, this bugusing sucks...many people thinking of stop playing this game. Pls fix this issue urgently

Just to clear things up: the opponent disconnects, you finish him anyway, and still get a loss?

I don't know... Can we do pvp in demo ?

You can do simple PvP in the practice mode, but no stats are recorded. The main problem here is that when the other person drops, their ladder placing gets screwed over.

I think they stopped releasing regular patches due to the Crytek deal. I really hope they keep updating, after all they promised two new maps ;). Frujin said there will be a hotfix the next week. Looks like they are getting to work once more.
@snog. The map MUST be completed with good items. After all it is the last one, it should be one of the hardest. Otherwise newbies can beat every map without any items and this would make the game less fun.

Could also buff Lan Zealot to the difficulty of the assassin, challenges all round.
Patches also aren't cheap. Between programing costs, publisher QA testing, advertising and distribution, patches can easily get up to tens of thousands of dollars to release.
@jediguardian, i aggree that shouldnt be possible that newbies can make everymap without items, but have you ever been to the assassin/lan zealot? If not, the difficulty difference is relly too big, and it cannot be, that the assassin is nearly not beatable with the best items which exist for the races. We have tried it with every possible combintion, and only beaten him twice.
So the assassin musst get a >>>little<<< nerf, and lan zealot should get a little bit stronger. The idea is really nice at lan zealot, but he is getting too fast down, so there is nearly no need to do that tactics (i dont want to spoiler something)
