Feedback concerning Angmar's Tribute Carts

(1/2) > >>

Lord of Mordor:
Hey guys,

Angmar has one of the most unique mechanics to level up its buildings. Tp polish it further, we require your feedback!

- Do you like the tribute cart mechanic in general? Do you feel it's interesting and strategic or just unnecessarily cumbersome?

- Do you think Angmar is able to level up its buildings in a reasonable time? Or do you think that compared to other factions it takes too long or goes too quickly?

- Do you often end up with more tribute carts than you can handle or do you manage just fine?

Thanks for your opinions! :)

I personally really like the tribute cart system.  It is one of the most unique ways to upgrade your Unit Producing buildings.  They do let you upgrade quickly, however, generally the units/upgrades cost so much that it really doesn't feel like your getting strong units too quickly.  I would really like to see this upgrade system stay.  :)

There are only 2 problems I see with this system.  Firstly, it seems like the money you get from each cart is random (correct me if I'm wrong).  I personally think it should be a fixed amount, say 300 resources, instead of it being a random number between 200 and 500 I think.  The only other thing is that you don't have access to Tribute Carts when defending on fortress maps such as Minas Morgul or Minas Tirith, which making winning very hard.

Other than that, the system should stay as it is.

It's not a random amount, carts from settlements always give +250 while those from the outpost always give +500. Everything else would be a bug afaik.

Good to know.  I guess that is fine then, but I don't think that is stated anywhere, so maybe it can be written in the description of the Tribute Carts, if it isn't already.

Odysseus:
I like the system, it is unique and interesting. However, I think it is not optimised just yet. Especially when having levelled your buildings, I often find myself having to click all the tribute carts individually to get them back to my base or some outpost building. Would it be possible to have that Tribute Cart icon near the palantir serve as a global select, instead of selecting each one and cycling through them individually?

Also, I don't think it would hurt to have some kind of hidden timer on the settlements and outposts to see how far off the next spawn is. Would that be possible? If so, I think it would be useful to have this for all buildings that spawn units in intervals, like the Signal Fire, and the Travel Camp, but that is for another topic. It would make things easier to keep track of.

If not, would it be possible, to have some kind of general rally point where all spawned tribute carts will go rally at that certain point on the map? Either individually for each settlement building or some kind of global rally point via the citadel. If you think it would remove the necessary micro, perhaps it could serve as an extra ability for the Witch-King's sanctuary unlock.

Just to make it less arduous to having to micro all those carts in the lategame, that is all.
