So I see /v/ talk a lot about game balance, and how no game is balanced correctly.

Time to put your money where your mouth is. Balance the game /v/.

Easy, you level up to level 75 and stop being a bitch nigga.

reduce archer's headshot multiplier and health

>>343183758
what's the formula of the damage reduction of the armor?
>>
>>343183910

Yeah but then you're not even factoring armor or how much health, attack, etc. is granted upon level up.

You need to work out the worth of a single level first
>>
The stat growth is ridiculous. Is this WoW?
>>
It's already balanced, swordguy just needs to git gud.

DAMAGE FORMULA FOR ARMOR

>>343184105
This is dumb, the archer can still win this fight easily if he gets at least one headshot
>>
>>343184105
3.5/10
Nope archer too shit now
Also generic melee class got less HP than generic ranged wtf
>>
>>343183758
How the fuck does armor work you triple nigger.

Is like shields or is it a flat reduction or is it a % reduction based on how high the number gets?

>sword and bow do same damge at same level

Lol that's shit. Bow's have draw time, the DPS is now imbalanced compared to sword, who would use them?

Also:

>swordguy has 300 armor
>Bowguy has 25

Why must balance be nerfing?

People use the powerful thing because it's fun, it's fun because it's powerful.

Why not make all the things powerful?

>>343184348
this dark souls and stalker have done it right.
the perfect balance is where the enemy can die quickly yet you can die that easily as well.
that way you create interesting fights that don't feel like a s log of bashing a health sponge all the while keeping the tension of dying.
>>
Just add a parry button

that means a game can never be broken because you're simply not good enough, right?

Armor works like a shield that can regenerate when you don't take damages for a period of time

>>343184738
Low health pools make for more reactive strategies and are equally monotonous

>>343184738
Unless you have a damage model that promotes sponge gameplay while also being enjoyable to participate in

>Will take 24 hits to kill the archer

Nice damage sponge combat you got there. Is this Skyrim?
>>
>>343184996
Yes. Wonder why the archer didn't stealth kill the warrior though.
>>
>>343183758
Looks like bethesda legendary balance to me.

It has 2.5x your level so you shouldn't even be fighting it to begin with which seems balanced already.
>>
>>343183758
>lvl 30 vs lvl 75
what are we supposed to balance here? It is 45 levels of difference of course the archer is supposed to slap the swordsman's shit
>>
>>343185170

yeah but that level progression looks pretty imba
>>
>>343185170
this is the toxic game design that plagues the medium since the dawn of time.
the swordsman doesn't have fun in this scenario games should be design with the fun of everyone in mind.

Fuck you archer needs to get good and keep his distance. Make archer speed 10% more than warrior because muh leather und coif. Archer will need to learn positioning and how to backpedal. But warrior is scrub class for losers who can't into headshots.
