I wonder if castle would be better if his doors only covered half of the doorway. You could set it low to block drones and force the enemy to vault over them (like people do with deployable shields) or you could set it high and make them crouch their way in if they dont have any way to take down the barricade. It would certainly make them less susceptible to getting Fuzed.

I won't say you're right or wrong, because I could see both sides of the argument a bit, but looking at those (and a few others) a bit, I could see at least a few of them being a situation where he is repositioning his mouse in preparation for some turns, especially given how much he was moving around.

I had one recently where I just was plain potato-ing some shots and I ran out of mouse pad which lead to a serious case of the dead corpses.

I feel like they need to take away "elite," unless they make them obtainable via other means, such as completing a set of challenges or grinding 50,000 renown. I have seen people with elite skins whose skills would suggest far from the status. Though honestly I am probably going to by one anyone when I get paid. I guess what I am getting at is this game needs other ways to obtain certain things. 10,000-30,000 for a skin or headgear is a little ridiculous. Or just drop the $5-10 for it.

Well they aren't ever going to restrict "elite" stuff to 20% of the player base. Heroes Of The Storm had it take 100~ games on that character and 10k gold (which is about equivalent in purchasing power to 15k renown) for a master skin, don't see numbers given but they said most people who qualified didn't buy one.

I did this and could have stopped it, but nothing in nature ever follows a gaussian curve. Sure, they'll tell you that it does. They say that every five minutes someone dies in a car accident, but how often are there seven hundred and sixty one armless and legless corpses in one hangar?
Used a Capitao incendiary bolt on the default barricade thinking it'd burn it down from a distance. Not sure why, that seems like the kind of thing people'd be doing a lot if it could be done.

Point is, now I really wish I could do that. Open up an entryway from a distance like Buck, much less ammunition to do it with, sacrifice some of your offensive potential, and gives Capitao more utility. It'd also give Castle another reason to get picked. Big metal barricade isn't going to burn down.

Technically it burns out the oxygen and isn't an incendiary weapon, probably because they didn't want counter terrorist units burning people to death. But Smoke should be immune as he's wearing a full chemical suit and breathing gear :eng101:

Just so you know this is exactly what I was thinking of when I typed my initial limbo castle comment.

That's a pretty cool idea actually.

Not to backseat game dev too much here but after seeing Mira and seeing her windows be able to cross over multiple panels it'd be cool if you could just control the placement a bit more beyond "this replaces the standard wood panel".

Like you could push it all the way to the floor but now there is a space at the top of the door where frags/flash/smoke/drones could be thrown through. You could also safely walk up to the door and destroy it without someone shooting your feet.

Or if there is enough wall space above the door/window you could place it higher up on the wall and make a little murder line or crawl hole.

Let Kapkan have the option to put the trap directly on the Castle panel instead of the doorframe. It detonates for a lethal explosion and blows out the panel whenever someone gets directly in front of it.

(I can usually tell which vid is what just by the preview image)

The fact that Castle walls aren't literally walls you stick at the top and deploy like a portcullis to chop whoever is jumping in in half is absurd. Being able to selectively block off windows/doors like popping Mira windows (eg stick a shootable gas can to deploy) to trap attackers would be great. Make this happen, Hard.

Maybe only let Glaz break a small kill hole into his poo poo rather than destroy the entire window with practically zero effort?

Or just increase his supply because late round castle is fun when you can throw up extra walls and risk your life to shut down a bottleneck ftw. If they're just gonna be so easily breakable then hwy not give him a few more to play with




Maybe let Castle close busted hatches or something... just kidding how long until an operator can set up rope ladders to climb up them?
