invalid Start dropping Supply boxes when there are at least 2 players in the battle

[Skills.n.Girls 774]

Hello.

So... whenever someone creates a new battle, he has an advantage of the dropped boxes over the players who would join later. This feels annoying to the enemies who just joined him in that battle - being non-stop killed for few times. How about none of the supply boxes start dropping while no-one is in the battle, but starts dropping just at the moment someone other has joined that battle?

 

Balance the battles that just started.

simple but effective - nice !

Great idea!

Meh, ok. Missions won't count supply drops until someone joins your battle, anyway.

[BlackWasp777 4,555]

ps: should not apply to parkour mode.. but great for everything else

Nice initiative :p

But I think the minimum amount of players until the boxes start dropping should be 4 players.

nooo this is one way to complete supply missions

This is a good idea, but flags too should only appear when someone joins the other team, maybe even 5 seconds after someone joins.

 

My idea about battle balancing with drop supplies could also work like this idea without changes to dropping rates::

 

In a 5 versus 0 battles, drop supplies would last 5 seconds for the 5 players (1 versus 0 will be the same)

In a 5 versus 1 battles, drop supplies would last 10 seconds for the 5 players and 50 for the 1 player

In a 5 versus 2 battles, drop supplies would last 15 seconds for the 5 players and 45 for the 2 players

In a 5 versus 3 battles, drop supplies would last 20 seconds for the 5 players and 40 for the 2 players

In a 5 versus 4 battles, drop supplies would last 25 seconds for the 5 players and 35 for the 2 players

In a 5 versus 5 battles, drop supplies would last 30 seconds for the 5 players and 30 for the 2 players (similar to 1 versus 1)

 

The changes to drop duration could change 5 seconds after changes in the amount of players.

I'm tempted to mark this completed. most PRO battles are played without supply boxes anyway, while tomorrow's update will partially solve this issue by extending the initial wave of supply drops to 2 minutes from 40 seconds after start.

Yes, supply boxes should automatically drop in battles when there are two at least two players in battles.

 

I hope that this will never be implemented for gold boxes, because players sometimes create private battles and start dropping their earned and purchased gold boxes to themselves. I do that sometimes too as well, and there is nothing wrong with that. If you buy and earn gold boxes, it is up to you whether or not you want to drop your own gold boxes for yourself. There is no wrong doing for that.

Nope, has to be at least 2 players for 1v1 battles.

Gold boxes are like money in the bank for a rainy day (and I don't mean Gold Rain-y days). Like cash on hand when funds get low.

 

Many times a battle creator will pick up all the dropped boxes before another player joins. That's to put the creator at an advantage and the joining player at a disadvantage.

Gold rains are amazing.

Nice idea but not in parkour plzzzzzzzzzz

Idea no longer applicable since battles are created automatically and almost always with full teams from the start. On the other hand, PRO battles should not be affected by balance features.

 

Idea invalid. Closed.
