Ok, just don't say it as if I had absolutely no idea what I was doing. Trust me when I say this, I tend to think things through more than you would expect. :p

Who knows, maybe I'm just still worked up over the stupidity debate...

Hey TRXD? Do you think I should unnerf the SPARTANs' intelligence?

Wait... SPARTAN intelligence is nerfed?! What the?! And I thought nerfing Cole's recharge ability was bad...
If nerfed SPARTANs are still rather intelligent, I dread to think about an unnerfed SPARTAN.

Also, about planning and strategising. I almost never strategise. And when I do, they never work. This is why I suck at chess and all TCGs.

If you unnerf the SPARTANS, then I'll remove more of the nerf that I have on Organization XIII.

Yea, they are nerfed.


You see, I kept getting a lot of complaints back in season 1 because John would know things before everyone else would. There were more than a coupel times where I had to explain how John managed to come up with the right idea. In fact, I had a couple of times where I was told that I was metagaming.

You see, even SPARTAN-IIIs have genius-level intelligence, simply because of their augmented neurons. Basically, each and every SPARTAN in Prometheus Labs is pretty much a genius. In fact, Alice would have known about Cole's abilities, due to The Labs's intellignece network. Each and every SPARTAN is supposed to memorize each and every Character that is brought into the real world and cataloged into a database. They would all know Cole because they were trained to remember him. As for their tactics, I explained how Prometheus Labs would be able to kill off The ACO within a couple of days, without Takoizu, the Characters, or Alivis's help.

You see, I can't RP them properly simply because of how they think. Heck, I do a horrible job at Takoizu. There's just too much of an intelligence gap between me and them.

I know that it's an eye roll-worthy moment, hearing me go on about how intelligent they are, but Cucoo's earlier posts made me think that maybe I'm nerfing their intelligence too much.

What do you think? Should I try and make them more intelligent?

Well, Cole's nerfs seem somewhat insignificant now.
Removing Lightning Storm and Gigawatt Blades (Cole's most powerful and OP abilities). Gigawatt Blades has been replaced with dragonslayer-like abilities which are less powerful.
Nerfing Cole's bad karma abilities and restricting some to certain karma levels (Cole's Shockwave and Arc Lightning are highly dangerous at Infamous karma)
Removing Cole's heal on recharge. That is highly OP. In a power plant or transformer unit, Cole is invulnerable and near invincible.
And a whole number of others.

@Katrix

And that is the problem I was talking about earlier.

The SPARTANs are pretty dumb as they are, and Cucoo showed me that. The very moment they exhibit some intelligence, people will get pissed off at me.

Why is it that everyone is either pissed of at me for making them stupid, or pissed off at me for making them intelligent?









Will everyone stop complaining to me about it and make up their minds? I'm trying to make everyone happy, but I CAN'T DO IT!

You know what? I'm going to take a break. Later everyone.

Goodbye.

@S121

I think when it began to be slightly amusing was when Jack wouldn't understand that he couldn't hurt Alvis. He kind of made a fool out of himself there. Other than that, I think they are just fine. Again, if you take away their nerf, Org XIII is going to become much more dangerous.

Ok, now that I'm dead tired from the gym, I am not as stressed.

Talk with Cucoo about this entire nerfing/unnerfing thing because you both have contrasting viewpoints on the matter. I've been trying to satisfy everyone, trying to keep everyone happy, but that's obviously not working, and it's simply stressing me out when I try to keep people from getting on my case and ultimately fail.

Try and come to a compromise, and I'll adjust my characters accordingly.
