EP 9.0.x Beta [RELEASED-LIVE]

[Plantinator]

So basically every civ got their perfect crate Start guaranteed but germany? Seems a bit unfair

[Kaiserklein]

Seems quite inconsistent, but some people got traumatized by TP start Germany. It's sad cause it opens much more builds.

[deleted_user]

I don't think skipping beta could be a good idea as the necessary balance changes for ports (maybe india too) werent implemented at all.

[Kaiserklein]

This is amazing, I'm really excited to try it out

The only thing this is missing is the Halberdier buffs

You realize they were heavily buffed already? I don't think that was reverted

[Kaiserklein]

I dont't think skipping beta could be a good idea as the necessary balance changes for ports (maybe india too) werent implemented at all.

So when 2 guys play like 3 games on the beta, is it gonna help at all?
It's the opposite, if the smurf tourney this weekend was played on the new patch, it would be a good way to test quickly. But I guess it will be played on current EP instead.

I would prefer it to be played on the beta. And for sure more than 2 people will be involved with the beta as current changes are absolutely great and will bring hype for players.

More buffs are needed, particularly 4.5 speed

[Garja]

So every civ gets the best start but not Germans? lol
Glad I dont play anymore

No, no one will bother playing on the beta as usual. And the tourney won't be played on the beta, right? So the changes won't be tested.

No.

The tourney might be on the Beta, Trevor asked me if it could be this morning, trying to see if it's viable first.

What happened? I thought we were all for the speed buff atleast? If anything I would prefer a hp buff rather than an atk buff for halbs

[Kaiserklein]

I'd be fine with a speed buff instead of an hp / attack buff. I said "no" because they don't need "more buffs". The unit is viable in some situations already

Could go for 4.5 speed and 20% mr, but revert the attack buff.

+1

[Hazza54321]

Re halbs with 4.5 speed sounds good to me

Yes but Germans got a buff to compensate. Their xp penalty is 8% instead of 10% on RE or 12% on the current iteration of EP. This should hopefully make them less dependent on TPs.

Still terrible.

Looks good. (I can't remember saying that for an EP patch release for a long time.)

If so terrible, reverting uhlan hp nerf or other stuff until good balance, something impossible with rdm crate.

This is a beautiful day to me. I expecte some revert buff (from india and sioux, india will be top civ now)

[Garja]

It's just terrible, regardless of Germans and regardless of actual balance (which will inevitably be complicate with non-consistent crates).
Last few months the patch dropped in quality really hard.

[Mitoe]

Anything that's not your idea is terrible.

[Garja]

Well, it's often the case because I tend to have good ideas.

ESOC Patch bug fixes
- Removed attack delay on all cannon-based artillery units, fixing an issue that caused them to sometimes fire "blank" shots.

It was fun when Kaiserkleins falcs where shooting blanks. Gonna miss those days.

It doesn’t change that. His falcs will still shoot banks if he doesn’t pay attention.

cant wait to the official EP9, this will be the best EP ever.
Thank u esoc team!
