Those 165+ guys can play for me. Where they at? I know of less than 10 I ever seen and most of them were Monsterkill's or cav's dudes. All of Monsterkill's guys played in WL competition.

Shit if you can run that fast. You can break the game.

If they continue with their current plan of the "respec" where you can pay to completely redo your build (copy someone else's) on the fly at any time, the game is doomed


testers can respec at any time.

when we launch we will have a respec, but it's not the same as our testing respec, more limited.

Fair enough, can you provide any details about those limitations? The very concept is a turn-off for me, unless it is going to be closer to the VA reset here.

Well, for starters there will only be 3 lifetime...that's the original thought, but it is under discussion to ensure the very scenario you mention doesn't happen.

Bort's original thought was more about fixing slight screw ups season to season so the builds weren't totally screwed by mistakes rather than rebuilding from the ground up to match the top bots in the game.

a partial respect(s), as Donk3yMan seems to be suggesting, seems a much more reasonable approach IMO....to be able to completely change a player in one fell swoop is a major turn off for me also.....

That's kinda what I was saying here, and where the discussion/idea of respeccing is at right now. Not a full reset so much as a partial.

The new replay alone took a couple hundred hours.


No problem. The issue is that GLB is not communicating this and the latest anticipated timeline. Some of us are actually looking forward to play this game!

The graphics are kinda meh but it will appeal to some. I would love a vertical view or a classic dot view of the game, but it isn't the worst thing in the world. They do keep getting better as Bort plays with it.


I hope they don't add a dot or vertical view. Because then you are kind of forced to use it as a coordinator as it is much easier to see exactly how plays are developing. But it is much more fun to watch it from the side (in my opinion).

Our current idea is only being able to respec your build to how it was at the last tier you hit.

So if you respec at level 25, your build will be rolled back to exactly how it was at level 20.

What is the argument for respecs? I just don't understand it. As of now, this is by far the biggest drawback with GLB2 for me as the VA resets have really bothered me with GLB1. The dots loses identity.

5 levels, especially at the backend of the life won't do ANYTHING in terms of identity. Identity is very much driven by your initial attributes and traits, too. Respecs don't do anything for those two areas (you don't get to change them when you respec).

Honestly, it's a flex expense for GLB to benefit from while also allowing players to erase simple mistakes.
