Hello there :smile:

I absolutely adore pixel gun. The weapons, the maps, etc. I love it all!!! Although... There is ONE feature that should be HEAVILY nerfed: ARMOUR...

Armour is REALLY overpowered and unfair, I shall list reasons on why exactly it is overpowered, and also how it should be nerfed.

Why armour is OP:

1. It's unfair for players who don't have/use armour. If you are not using armour, and you run into somebody who has fully upgraded crystal armour on, the guy with armour wins around 90% of the time, why??? It's obvious; you have normal health, while the other guy has almost 4x the amount of health you normally have, it takes the other guy less than a second to kill you, while it takes multiple seconds to kill the guy with the armour. Which is absolutely NOT ok.

2. When people wear really good armour, it forces you to use a LOT more ammo to kill him than it normally does. So if you don't want to spend precious coins (which are currently way too hard to earn) to get more ammo, then you have to take the time to open the shop, select a new weapon, etc. Which is REALLY annoying.

3. Armour promotes "pay to win" playstyles. Since armour cost so many coins, it encourages people to pay real money so that they can instantly fully upgrade their armour to be REALLY overpowered.

I would type more reasons, but I'm too lazy to do that :tongueout:

Anyways, here's how I think armour should be nerfed:

Change it so that when you first buy armour, it's wooden, then you can upgrade it to iron, gold, crystal, than to ruby, HOWEVER; make wooden armour give you half of an armour point, then each upgrade will give you another half armour point. So if you have a full set of ruby armour (chestplate and helmet) then you would have 5 full armour points, which is perfectly fine and not too bad to deal with, yet it's not weak either. And if you do nerf armour exactly how I suggested, than I would recommend lowering the price a little bit, the base wooden armour would cost around 35 coins, upgrading the armour would add another 20 coins to the upgrade price (upgrading to iron would cost 55 coins, gold is 75, crystal is 95, and ruby is 115.)

Thanks for reading, and I hope that everybody in the @RiliSoft team along with everybody on the forums has a wonderful Christmas :grin:
 
Nah, don't nerf it. Give penalties to it. You need to repair it every 5 matches. You have to pay either coins or gems for the high tier armour like ruby armour. Also if it is armour it's supposed to be heavy. Not a feather you wear as armour.

I do have armor(wooden helmet and upgraded 2 iron). But he only reason why I bought it was because it was on sale,so I could use it on survival,and because I was constantly on maps that had peeps with fully upgraded armor on.:confused:
Yes I do believe that Amor is OP,and it should be nerfed.Rilisoft should also make cons to the Amor instead of all pros.Like what Plasma just suggested.Armor is supposed to be heavy so it should take away speed.Also make each different upgrade of armor have its own set of different cons and pros.

Ya i agree with what you said try contacting rilisoft he might consider adding this!!!
 
Armor makes the game fun for me. Getting rid of armor might make it more "fair", but look at any shooter game; whether its multiplayer or single player, there are always enemies with varying armor or attack resistance. It can be somewhat frusterating, but makes you try a different strategy to kill them.
 
No.
Us Ruby and other teir of armour people worked EXTREMELY HARD to get those coins to get armour. Rilisoft isn't gonna say like, "oh here is your coins back you just wasted 20 hours of your life trying to get the coins" Rilisoft ain't gonna do dat. So you have to deal with us armour users because you were the ones that were too lazy to get them.

I got ruby armor, and I don't agree with that logic, getting the full armor upgrade for both helmet and body is around 3000 coins. And at current, you can get 1 coin per minute for solo online co-op survival. It means at least 50 hours of grinding at least without the item sales.

I don't think this game should only be hardcore players who spent that much time on it.
There are plenty of casual players who really can't spend that much time on this game but still enjoys it.
If those non-hardcore players are considered "lazy" and deserves the overly imbalanced disadvantage, then there really is something wrong with this game.

However, removing armor completely would really make things messy. Without it, too many weapons would kill you instantly and thus need re-balancing.
Thus I think its better to either reduce its effectiveness like mrawesome9002 said, or give a way to counter armor.
 
Guns that kill ruby armor players fast: anti-gravity blaster up2, prototype up3,high voltage up2, and laser minigun
