Thoughts on Legions: Overdrive
After playing Legions quite a bit, I thought to share my opinion on how the game could be improved with the community and there are a lot, so bear with me.There needs to be different elevation/depression for some weapons in the game. For example, I heard the Laser Rifle was being nerfed? If so, one way it could be nerfed is its gun depression, so it’s not as effective in dueling anymore, (For example, you wouldn’t be able to shoot someone in dueling easily when he quickly moves up above you or under you only a few feet) and requires people to be less mobile and stay still, which will make LR finally serve for it’s true purpose, shooting long-range. This will push people to experiment with other weapons and balance weapons by adding another aspect to it.
The observer mode seems to need work on it, I like the free mode. But, when I’m spectating a person, I’d love to see exactly what’s on his screen. I often have to move the mouse to look around and find his dueler. And when using observer mode, I often get kicked by the server for being “AFK”.
Can you please bring back the compass that was on the HUD back in IA? It would be a great addition to not only PUGs but in pubs. Players would be able to say, enemy capper coming from north or such in TeamSpeak, instead of “coming from left” “which left?” so on…..Another thing that could be added is to be able to determine how many meters enemy and friendly targets are from you. It would be useful in situations such as determining how far the enemy capper is from the base, or how far friendly capper is from coming in to grab flag when you are an LO.
Have a King of the Tower mode? (King of the Hill variant) I’ve had some fun games with people when there’s a game and everyone go on one team, then each person tries to take control of the tower back in the base of Elegiac. They also try to shoot everyone else off or kill them. (I’m pretty sure this is CnH?)
Also, if you’re going to add boost core, please don’t take off boost nades. Those are useful in duels (Blocking Mid-Airs shots, knocking players down to the ground so I can shoot them more efficiently there.) Taking out boost nades will eliminate super jumps from the game, a huge aspect of chasing. Simply making boost core inferior to boost nades in terms of speed will fix it. Boost core can be an easier, but less efficient method of gaining speed. I guess you can say it’s a training wheel.

This is on beta side of Elegiac under the base, if you shoot mortar or cluster launcher right where I’m aiming, it will go directly under the flag and appear there, injuring/killing anyone there. It’s a great place to shoot Kissy, Sin, Karnage if they’re HOFing on Beta side of Elegiac while all the while remaining protected, and the best part, they won’t even see you. On Alpha side, the loophole is around the same spot, but you’ll have to find it yourself. Credits to Alfred AKA, he showed me this (He doesn’t speak English, but after some exchange of rockets, he managed to get me there).
