<div class="IPBDescription">(not a 'the balance sucks post')</div> Ive noticed that most people complaining about or arguing for the balance of the game play on completly different servers.
A server with 3 aliens vs a server with 12 would have a completly different game due to res gain speeds and such.
Wouldn't it be possible for res income and a few other values to be based on a function of the number of players in the game? Rather then saying each res tower gives X res to split among the team each minute say each res tower gives X res times the number of people on the team a minute. (or something similar)
Thus the actual value of X is how many res per a set amount of time an alien gets per res tower. Seems to me that then both alien and marine res gain would be more balanced for any size of play.
Thoughts, comments?
