Being able to buy juice in OT really makes it pointless. Juice rushes require no coordination or skill to force a win and just comes down to which team can speed/cloak across the map faster. I'm guilty of it. On some maps I can jet pack my way across the map as a tank in less then 30s. And if a game is in OT I can easily have over $1k saved up. 2x deploys on the ball with juice is easy game over.
This may actually be a good idea, even if it kinda goes against the purpose of overtime speeding everything up.
Juice imo is also too cheap to buy, for a start buying it for 500 makes nearly every point of using a juice endorsement non exsistant plus it's rather easy to get 500 cash when you know what to do and have plenty of bots to kill in the 2nd half of a match. Disable the juice machines in OT would also be good but you would then get the people buying juice in the final 30 seconds and hiding until the ball drops, then rush in. Juice machines should be removed completely
I'm leaning towards agreeing with the removal of buying juice, its easy to get just by playing well. Or at least a HUGE price increase, say 1000-1500. Disabling them in overtime will be a definite improvement.
Price should jump in OT, not be removed. Juice rushes are how the game eventually ends. Im thinking 850$ would be more suitable.
disable juice machine and reset everyones juice to 40% when OT starts. that way you can still juice rush, but you have to earn it.
I definitely agree with some of the other posts. Maybe disabling completely, is over the top. But a price jump or some other mechanic limiting a juice rush is needed.
I'm all for disabling juice in OT. If you need a money sink perhaps the bot deployers will now require $250 and deploy a jackbot?
i agree, but if you couldnt crack their defenses before how are you supposed to crack it without juice in overtime?
Well you do get gold endorsement boosts in overtime, plus the ball automaticly drops so as long as you can land a few hits which is usually easy, it's all gravy.
