this is an excellent question

No, TF cannot get seismics. But, if you really want to nerf tp2/adv sup, double the costs of all sup tech again. Bam. Done.

that would be a quick and easy fix

For future reference, Yung, ideally "nerfing tp2" would mean "making it harder for someone who's been whittled down to 1-2 sectors to wipe out a techbase halfway across the map", not "making it easier for a team whittled down to one sector to turtle vs tp2 drops".

And everyone will start playing only exp.

For once, i agree with Jimen.

Frankly I've seen enough TP2 Figbee Runs fail lately that I'm not sure it needs any more nerfing.


If we nerf endgame techs too much every game will end up lasting 2-3 hours......

Maybe make the actual TP2 & FB's more expensive after they are researched, so that the cost of the run is more relative to it's chances of success.

Maybe un-"fix" tp code.

I like Duckwarrior's idea - making the actual probes and ships more expensive on a per-unit basis means it's a difficult one-time deal for a team with no map control and a payday economy, while barely being a speedbump to someone who owns the map and has four miners but just wants to end the game against some tough turtling.

Before clicking on the link I was hoping it was going to be probe inside the rock code change, dang. While your at it, but the cheat-board: name back in.
