Admittedly – considering your strong opinion in favor of removing Uhlans from German shipments, as well as your comments on Japanese scaling being broken – I'm surprised that you would make this particular point, though. It is an excellent one.

That's reassuring, then. If at all, how would you suggest changing the Cherry Orchard shipments, though?Mitoe wrote:I don’t think it’s overwhelming. Japan loses to lots of civs lategame on EP.

Overall feedback consistently indicates that Japanese scaling remains overwhelming.
I don’t think their lategame is a big balance concern right now personally.
Honestly if anything maybe it would make sense to adjust orchards (at least the sensible ones, probably not the starting ones).
If it were desirable to nerf Japanese for 1vs1, overall, the most obvious change to me is halving the number of animal slots of the Toshosgu Shrine, effectively cutting half a Villager's worth of resource generation, and improving the viability of wonder options.
Re: Japanese Discussion Thread
Possibly 2 Orchards should just be a shipment you can only send 1 time, and then maybe buff the orchards themselves a tiny bit to like 5500f or something. Then you have to consider shipping 1 orchard or switching to paddies, as well as managing your shrine income a bit more to maximize the food income and prolong the lifespan of your orchards.zoom wrote:That's reassuring, then.

Alternatively could just nerf the orchards very slightly to have less food, but that hurts Japan on maps where they're not as good already (2 berries + 1 orchard rather than 2 orchards, for example).
Re: Japanese Discussion Thread
Nerfing orchards on EP makes little sense because all the civs got their hunt amount improved, so if it was unfair before now it isn't.
I don't see a sensible way to nerf Japan at the moment, which also makes me think a nerf is probably not necessary.

Yeah I don't really think they need one either.
Re: Japanese Discussion Thread
Shipping cherry orchards twice is also suboptimal in almost all instances anyway, better off sending a rice paddy card.

yes, considering that many people now will do torii to colonial this leaves toshogu to fortress. however you still need some export stacked, which would mean that you're not utilizing your consulate to its early potential (or just don't make it and save some wood)somppukunkku wrote:Wow, had to test it myself and its indeed insane value. Though, stacking 800 export can be difficult in tight games. Maybe somehow with 300 export shipment and Toshugu to fortress.

Not saying "should", that is just an observation.

Re: Japanese Discussion Thread
I agree that no BO eco are just annoying, especially with the deck buff.
Rush builds (like 5/5ashis) are too viable atm, kami play is strategically more interesting.

They shouldn't. That's why the first thing to nerf, at this point, would be Toshogu Shrine.Jerimuno wrote:Why should people go torii to colo now?

Are you implying that anyone has ever said that it's not a buff, or that it doesn't impact balance? Because I'm not aware of anyone ever having said that.

That’s exactly what I’m saying. I’ve argued many times that it should be listed as a balance change in the patch notes, and not a bug fix.

If it affects balance in a significant way, it should be listed as a balance change. It’s one of the largest balance changes in the whole patch.
Re: Japanese Discussion Thread
It were a minor change. There is no intent or suggestion of redesigning the civilization, unless you definition of "redesigning Japanese" is making any one option to Toshogu Shrine viable, in which case there definitively is both.KINGofOsmane wrote:yea go make japs even slower with nerfing shrine wonder.

I have never implied or said that this change doesn't affect balance. In fact, I have explicitly stated multiple times – especially in addressing you – the contrary. It is simply the case that listing a blatant bug fix as a balance change, regardless of however much it affects balance, is incompetent and unprofessional. Let me take this opportunity, too, to state that I hold this bug fix (the change from an unintended state of affairs to an intended one) to be significant to balance.

Whether something is a bug has absolutely nothing to do with whether it affects balance. A bug can have any amount of impact on balance—including none.
Despite your insistence on spreading misinformation about my statements and views, I even went out of my way to overhaul the patch notes, creating a separate category especially for your sake, visible next to the balance changes, of bug fixes that have a most notable significance to balance. Considering all of the aforementioned, I would appreciate it if you showed me if not some appreciation, then some bare minimum of decency and stopped spewing this nonsense about me, only because your definition of the word "bug" differs from convention.
Thank you!

Re: Japanese Discussion Thread
That's not the point. The point is that it is not being communicated as a balance change in the notes. You can state that it has a significant impact on balance, but as long as it's not being communicated that way in the patch notes there's no way the casual user of ESOC Patch (or even the heavy user that doesn't read the forums very closely) will know that this change was made without being told or experiencing it themselves--or digging through a large list of most irrelevant bug fixes. I doubt anyone reads the "bug fix" section very closely, particularly when they are trying to see what major balance changes have been made.zoom wrote:I have never implied or said that this change doesn't affect balance.

I also strongly disagree with the fact that the Japanese deck checking was a "blatant" bug. It's been in the game since release in 2007 and was never changed that entire time--the devs clearly did nothing to try to "fix" it. It's become an accepted part of the civilization and worked into the metagame. Regardless of whether or not it was truly a bug it was more of a mechanic in the eyes of the players.
I'm not trying to be rude or anything; I just struggle to understand why it cannot be listed as a balance change or both when the majority of players seem to agree that it should be.
