The Dream for Balancing Champions

Yulen Xoshxius·Jan 18, 2015·1 votes·334 views

Awhile back on Gunz 2 forums when people were argueing about buffs and nerfs, someone suggested that instead of nerfing the good characters of the game they should buff all the other characters to their level. This was a great idea(but MAIET didn't really do much about it), but in Gunz 3 there are only 6 characters to play as.

But can you imagine if instead of nerfs, they buffed the other champions to their level? I understand this will NOT happen as there are way too many and that is too much work, but how different would the game play?

This is a question about balance. You don't want this game to feel like playing URF all the time...

If everyone is at the same level of capabilities: isn't that balanced?

The only way you would have something Truly balanced is if all ability would be the same.

Buffing under performing champion to the point they can compete with more ''op'' champion will get them more op. Often the reason why underperfoming champion are bad is because in their current state they would be extremely dangerous if buffed up enough to be competitive. So right away those who were op will be up.

This is mainly cause because theyre other thing than sheer number thats cause the problem and changing a spell is not an easy task.

But then they are not buffed up to the same level then and are instead buffed up OVER the other's level.

Its a two bladed edge if its infinitly hard to nerf all champ to same level so it is to buff them to the same level. Dont forget this game has 123 champs already...

XD That I can relate to. I understand this will NOT happen as there are way too many and that is too much work.
