valid Add "round stabilization" augment to XP, BP and XP/BP battles

[Picassoo 191]

The title says it all; can easily be done by enabling the round stabilization augment for Railgun in format battles by default so that tanks always take two shots to kill.

Doesn't involve any new mechanics and is something any decent XP/BP player would agree with.

Valid

I changed the title to make it fit as we do not accept ideas regarding removal of updates, but adding round stabilization to XP/BP is something new.

I like this one! Should preserve the two-shot feel of the mode.

Unfortunately it wouldn't preserve the occasional 3-shot that can be so exciting, so what if there was a special augment for XP-BP that introduced some variability back into the damage, rather than flattening it and boosting it like Round Stabilization?

XP/BP is basically LCR Railgun + Hornet/Wasp.. Anything than that done by developers is just for sake of ruining the mode.

It is true that the occasional 3shot always sometimes allowed some amazing clutch returns or captures, making it worth fighting to the end most of the time. It was also better because it was partially predictable. I wouldn't really mind 3shots if they were at least as rare as they used to be, yet I think it would ultimately be better for 3shots to never occur, as they can be annoying and XP/BP already has enough luck factors:

1. Predicting your opponent's moves

2. Spawns

3. Unfortunately: lag

Seems like that to be honest, I'm not sure they realize that this mode is were legends meet skilled play which in turn makes play level higher.

Also, XP/BP players play MM to get skins and paints, but that doesn't mean they'll move to non-PRO if XP/BP is made worse. They'll more likely quit.

Keep the xp bp format out of the games garbage updates. Critical update is garbage and xp bp is a legacy mode. Keep it the way it should be, simple gameplay. D

This augment removes the critical shots from Railgun and also solves the 3 shots problem we had all those years.

3 shots isn't a problem. Why does everyone act like it is. It's so stupid.

It added a twist to gameplay. What am I gonna rely on twists for now? How bad someone can lag?

I'm in agreement with @Graves here - occasional 3-shots at semi-unpredictable times were helpful for keeping XP-BP from getting too monotonous.

So people who play is treat it as a problem, and you don't understand why

I don't state things randomly, I've played a lot of xp bp. I know what I'm talking about.

How come you think spawns are predictable and which XP/BP map has 3 spawn positions per base then? Btw, I actually like it how spawns don't revolve in a fixed order, but 25% 3shot chance is way too high.

"25%". Some games I play don't even have 3s. Its not like oh shiza, 1/4 shots will be 3s. 3s barely happens. What I'm saying is that when it does happen, it makes the game interesting.

Please don't add it cause I know by this my enemies will only have advantage.

and when I say 3s. Im talking about removing critical from xp bp. So its base xp bp. It has lower 3s chance than it does with critical. I just want tanki's trash updates out of the way of a classic mode.

I played xpbp many times with critical damage in test server . After some shots it cause a 9k damage  which was helpful alot.

Such things are done by devs so they can see at once whether whatever they're testing works without using debug tools
