Well Dreamus was always a CPU hog. I think the changes we made may have made it a little worse. You said you removed the fog completely, right? That probably does not help. Also, we added a vehicle to each side. And we took out flak, which means people need to use link primary and mini more which means more channels.


If we can't get the utilization down without drastic changes, I say put the fog back, remove the mantas (except for the middle.) Remove the extra scorpion we added to each side. We have the extra avrils which should help against the tanks. And maybe we want to add flak back into the second nodes.

If you want to try a copy of it with extra nodes to see how that plays out, I don't have issue with it, but I'd like to see these changes in the base dreamus first to see how they play out.

Sorry alpha, this isn't always an exact science.

- Well .. The fog is not removed completely .. Im sorry if didnt explained myself good .. I meant to say that I put it back to the value where it was before... thats at zero point zero .. or in other words right on your face .. I said I treid at 400.0 but I pulled it in as it was originally ..

The wepons for sure are changing .. As I said in like one page back the link ammo is going to be cut out to a minimun We want to get rid of those link gun fire rains .. there will be more flack and shock .. I think I got a clear idea on paper on how to distribute weapons (after spending one rainy afternoon thinkin) even tho it was for the new node setup .. But nm .

So Ok! you wanna see this changes you just posted on the actual Dreamus .. Ill have it ready for this afternoon its no big deal and pretty quick adjusts! -- Ill post it here when done ..

- Ok mantas are gone , only 1 remains at 6 .. The extra scorpions at base Gone.. The avril pick up at bases is gone and integrated to the closest weapon locker to where it was placed .. Bit more fog added than the amount of the original Dreamus -- The link ammo in all lockers to minimun (70)

Flack and Shock are now available at all nodes .. Since its going to become a land war with 2 less mantas - The weapons at the base stay the same .. But lightnin gun pickup was swiched to Sniper Rifle - That little hole someone post about is now fixed- sorry abou that - (made sure theres no more) Everything else pretty much stays the same ..

- Let me know what you think of Flack at primaries , I though good adding it since people with no flack will use the link instead and will happen what we know will happen..besides the oposite team will be well armed .. . But if you think is too much can be removed ( all flack ammo is also a minimun thats 15 per player ) -

If all this is coo! im ready to release it .. ASAT

How about some lightning rifles at the current primaries. i dont have any hitscan weapons there, also try looking at rockets+ nades instead of flak.

there's shock rifle there.. So .. Granades and Shock at primaries .. 7 and 8 Flack and shock -- and at 6 we take out the flack switch it over to Rocket launcher .. -- fog increased in 500 units seem to get me 12 more fps .. -
