Personally I think the Mysterious Ship is fine. I mean, I died to the 6 beam variant, but only because I wasn’t used to it (it went all the way to the bottom, and instead of moving to its side, I stayed on the diagonal).
As for the Egg Cannon Cannon Cannon, I haven’t fought it yet (I’ll probably look for it today). I like the idea (and it’s certainly a nice meme), but I’m not really sure about its implementation. Should we really have joke bosses in the normal boss pool? I feel like Chicken Exponentiality is sorta in the same box. Just Chicken Multiplicity with different enemies (plus, we now have Special Forces and Special Needs each appear in three different waves, isn’t that a bit much?).
Come on, you can’t tell me this isn’t just showing off.
Yeah, Exponentiality was a great laugh the first time. But I doubt I’ll find it to be particularly enjoyable on subsequent encounters.
Here comes to my old suggestion, bosses are categorized into major bosses and normal bosses.
Major boss will only appear in the end of the mission. Creating somewhat less frustrating mid-level fight, and anti-anti-climatic (lol) end. And chicken exponentiality and egg cannon cannonade are in this category for obvious reasons.
Ikr, It feels repetitive… But that will make it harder since everytime you won’t get used to the same pattern from the last time so you get confused and then you’ll get hit unless if you dodge very well.
I think this boss concept has a potential to become a very good raid boss, if something like that will ever get implemented. (For those who don’t know, raid boss is something like special challenge boss that has shitload HP and is insanely difficult and designed to be fought only by the most experienced players.)
I think I will make a more extensive post talking about it and its potential.
Wait. You’re telling me IA is giving medals to people on Discord? What about all those forum users who have no idea how these users got them? That explains all those random medals in the changelog, but I just didn’t make an effort to search high and low for the post where IA gave it to them.
@InterAction_studios I think it’s only fair for this to happen only here, right in front of everyone, so that ideas can be discussed by everyone and so that people don’t pass others’ ideas as their own.
Because I made that change from memory. I didn’t recall that @anon48763505 had also mentioned it here. Fixed.
@Sufi Ideas are collected from the forum (primary), but also through e-mail, the game itself (“feedback” button), and also lately on Discord. I also make mistakes in handing out medals all the time. If you see a metal awarded to someone else that you think you deserve, let me know (include any proof, if you have it) and I’ll correct it.
