What do you think Cyberstep needs to improve?

3Legion Posts : 2661 Join date : 2012-11-26 Age : 27

The title should explain enough, please just put anything you think WILL help Cyberstep improve
for starters, this video v (I first saw one of the series in one of the member's siggy, forgot who though, it was about perfect imbalance)
https://youtu.be/nqGcXOksFGg
Explanation : The trend is the OP bots, of course I hope at least one of the developers is smart enough to add a metrics code...

Too lazy to create an account for herself, my cousin who have heard about how bad the game is asked me to let her post using my account, so.... yeah, have fun, but be serious

Nova, mind explaining a bit? We'll need as much detail as possible to make sure these ideas won't get messed up by idiotic misinterpretation

Everything?

3Legion Posts : 2661 Join date : 2012-11-26 Age : 27

Everything like what? 10 ways to rip off money with an online game book is in it if you just said "Everything" be specific and if possible, don't copy other people ideas, oh and mind if I have some popcorn?

~Iris~

Everything.

From how Cyberstep treats all of its players (Free to play players)
to how almost everything they've released in RT Garapon has been a bane to anything and everything you build.
to how expensive RT is.
to how crappy the rates are (UC,and Drop Rates)

3Legion Posts : 2661 Join date : 2012-11-26 Age : 27

I'll say the way they make a gara bot way more powerful than a normal bot and also the difference in numbers between good UC and good Rt bots needs to be stopped
Forgot to mention, the popcorn door password is "109238" I changed it last time as a prank, and forgot to tell anyone....

Remove that animation thing in garapon and make the prize completely random, not limited by that animation.

1. i'd love if the game didn't run off of fucking java.
2. Garapon should be like...10$ for a 5roll, 25 rt for a single roll. Shop bots should be around 25-30rt each as you are paying that little bit extra to avoid the random chance.
3. Rework fucking slow tunes. Should be 100% chance, but the slow should be only 5% reduction per tune(so 15% speed reduction on hit with 3 tunes). Shell drain can work in a similar fashion. Burn tunes can be removed.
4. The melee score bonus needs to be re-evaluated.
5. Remove the mechanic where slots break when tunes are failed. Increase(possibly even double) the resources it takes to perform said tunes to compensate and still make it feel like some sort of accomplishment.
6. start to work on fixing the various glitches with inconsistent damage, ghost hits, and other shit.

People who complain about drop rates have brain problems.

its most likely the other way around, the prices are rolled and an animation chosen for a pricevalue you recieved

What Winty said.

I'd also like a more entertaining way to collect tune-up materials. The PvE is jut so repetitive. It should be more like C21 in the beta D=

3Legion Posts : 2661 Join date : 2012-11-26 Age : 27

shower the idea on guys! BTW, are the drop rates good or is it just Wintry? Bro said that the drop rates are a little bit tight, but I won't know from only one person's opinion

Do you honestly believe that the way Gara works is a "fair" and plain RNG without any modifications? Did you start playing yesterday?

Ace Poster Posts : 1288 Join date : 2012-10-31 Age : 26

I don't care. I just want an item that repairs broken slots. RIP Reaper Scythe 2012-2013

@Stardust That aside, the drop rates aren't that bad. Depends on what drop you're talking about. If you mean the time CB had A.L.E Crim cubes drop event, then yeah, drop rate a shit.

@Melon Ain't he talking about drop, not gara rates? scratch

3Legion Posts : 2661 Join date : 2012-11-26 Age : 27

for some reason, I managed to get both of the bots from the A.L.E. Crim event, one right after 10 battles after discovering about A.L.E. Crim and another two are both wools, I forgot about those two though

~Star~

Did you ever start playing this game at all?
Perhaps you missed out on what happened when even a nerfed to uselessness version of a gara bot was put in the shop for UC.
The garapon having fucked droprates is the only thing that even attempts to prevent oversaturation of new content.
You know seraph FC? What if she had a higher droprate from her garapon? Man I'm sure that would have been fun to play with before her nerf.
There's plenty of fucking bots in this game that I'm glad aren't in the hands of every retarded fuckwit that plays. There's also bots that I wish less people had. Not because they are overpowered(thought some are) but simply because they are annoying cunts. I wouldn't mind seeing them once every 3 matches or so, but 3 in every match is just a little too much for me.

Is it fair? Do you have a habit of picketing casinos? it's fucking gambling, of course it's not fucking fair. Why would it be? You want a bot, buy it from the shop. You want to waste money and attempt to come out ahead, you spin that prize machine.

I see you didn't notice the 'inb4', indicating that I was predicting what the other people would say.

In all seriousness, garapon in general, cost of the Rt stuff, and how all of the good and useful content requires Rt. I'm glad that's changing slowly, what with the Spring Sale and massive Rt Shop, as well as buffs to some old bots so they won't be obsolete(yay 3x kicking Renny), but it's still questionable how some of the new Rt shop bots(Rinka Lynx and School Ion) have prices that can reach up to $20 and still feel heavily gimped compared to their Gara version.

Not that saying that they're gimped has anything to do with dashing my hopes of sniping people with Rinka Lynx has anything to do with it.

I highly doubt that. I remember scoring Super Bunny back then yet the highest prize grade I got was Silver.

pretty sure this also applies to shop ion.

Ion isn't part of the sale either

Sorry, I did not notice any lack of FCs or retarded fuckwits with broken bots in the arena, ever.

Casinos don't rig their shit, because they are actually held responsible to an outside organization(s).

I see. I was wondering what was off about that. Many thanks.

0 out of three of us understands what inb4 really means anyway....
and I'm not a player, only a cousin who's surprised that her cousin can actually ragequit a game that seems to be one of his favorites for a while, bro never did that before, if he did quit a game where he was a fan before, he'll do it in a year or two after getting bored on his fourth account or something like that...
Either way, it seems that the core of the problem is some of the bots who are annoying like bats in a platforming game but not OP and the gara rate, as for the price problem in my bro's era, it seems fixed, and I hope it is.....

Oh, there most certainly is a lack. Mainly being that not every single player is using one. 5 eris per team in a 15v15 arena? sucks bro. Could have been 10 per team if every retard who wanted one got one.
Casinos don't have to artificially rig their shit because the odds of the games they run are naturally always slanted in favor of the house.
