Hey I just want to tell you Booms need to be removed from planetary annihilation If you are on the same small planet as someone you lose, Booms rush kills almost effortlessly, I played a match with a guy who had an alliance with me, Then straight away he betrayed me and sent something after me Can you guess what? That's right, Booms This is just me complaining about how overpowered booms are Sincerely Your loyal customer Loojee
Those both really aren't good excuses in a strategy game, though. You should be constantly scouting to see what your opponent is building. You can also learn to get a sense of danger when you don't have good intel but you know that your opponent is aware of your commander position and has the means to pull off a snipe like this.
Booms are the ultimate weapon in PA, tbh. Get enough of them and no one can stop you. Problem is, in the situation you speak of, dox or an army buffering your comm are your best defense. Just scout it and pay attention to your surroundings. It will be extremely hard to boom snipe you then.
I watched a game where a guy used Booms to wipe out T2 units after killing their T1 meatshields. Plus they're a great way to knock out factories, walls, and power generator farms, if you can keep them from getting shot up by an army.
I was stood behind Scathis in Uber's office when he tweaked them to where they are now. He told me that if anyone complains they are OP I should take the blame. I regret nothing.
Could be worse, we could have the crawling bombs from Total Annihilation. Raise your hand if you remember sticking them in an air transport for express delivery to the enemy!
True, But they are cheap and construct fast, If you are on a small planet early game your opponent can contrsuct them to fast for you to handle
Well if he knew they were going to be OP Why did he make them? Its no excuse honostely i still blame Scathis But PA is a great game and you should be proud of out No hard feelings okay?
