Game Days
Posted: September 1st, 2011, 7:06 pm
I was thinking, seeing as this game has more of a cult following. We could arrange some 'game days', or something similar, where everybody arranges to play some EotA at a certain time.
It seems like we have to wait for the planets to allign for this game to be played online. Even when we do get around to playing the game, it's filled with people who are new to it, so they either; leave because they didn't read the scroll, or stay and get killed alot, causing the other team to get a huge advantage, eventually leading to a premature end to the game.
I have to admit, the reason this game has such a small following is because it's harsh on new-comers. Maybe there could be some kind of 'assist' system which can be selected before you pick a hero, which basically gives hints on how to do certain stuff.
so, say if you just started the game and asked for assistance; it will tell you to read the scroll, after doing what the scroll says it'll tell you what to do next (buy item, builder, mercenaries), if you get bulder it'll tell you about generators and spawns. etc.
Basically, little hints that sort of lead on to each other, especially ones on how to use crystals
