Just to note that as per what I posted in the other topic, I won't be contributing to this thread. While I still feel distaste that people are trolling or genuinely expressing an actual taste for cheap tactics like EMP into weapon spam, I don't play AS/Race anymore and if that's what the majority want, so be it. As long as nobody is going to pretend that it's actually any good from a gameplay design standpoint, you're welcome to it.

I haven't voted.

At least we have moved from arguing on behalf of the majority to accepting there is a demand for such a game type.

One weekend a month is enough though.

Nobody here pretends that it would be good gameplay or wanted to say that, we're just having fun.

Pardon my ignorance because I do not play the Race often.... I'm not going to vote, but I'm just curious about what is the difference between Megafun and OLDZ? What you gain by it to stay? What is the difference to a normal race?

(In the 1st post (ok )

It also means basecamping, given the huge knockback shield is useless, solobender has no penalty on nitro reloading, air control for benders, cheap tactics as explained above...

What about a poll for "no aircrafts" during Megafun (except warwing in Yro)?

How about accepting what you've got instead of trying to use tyranny of the majority for annoyance purposes?
