The point of this topic is not to "troll" millt, etc.
It is an actual serious topic, and you should take it as such.
If you have no actual input, or wish to troll; go elsewhere.

I agree, banning Hoogies and implementing Blinky the Steamroller are ID's last hope.

If someone else can do it then yes I'd give them a chance. I feel like id is holding well considering how old the game and platform is. We needed to jump on the steam custom games platform but I don't think it was made for Id.

Steam custom games is nice in that you have a ready check button right before the game starts which means there are fewer afks. Also it reaches a wider audience.

Transformice is a steam game similar to Id in that there are tons of players running around.

4.0.0s main issue is that it's trying to be too balanced, and in the attempt of being so it became basic, neither did it become balanced. I never found it as a too enjoyable version, it did bring a lot of quality of life and was a super smooth version in terms of bugs. A thing ID lost somewhere along its versions was all the hidden advanced things available, it felt like you learned a new secret feature after each game, all of those together made ID so complex and great.

It's hard to say what ID needs right now. I would say a revamp of titans and builders to make them feel unique and refreshing. Items also needs to be re-designed. I remember some dude a while back got shit on by the community for stealing other games ideas, I see no issue with doing so. Cherry pick your favorite ideas from DotA 2, LoL, WoW, HoN, Hearthstone, team fortress or whatever game and create an amazing and unique game.

Won't be able to do anything new until Blizzard fixes the Order ID bug I'm afraid.

I love how all these inactive people comes and makes dumb comments. I made this topic by a serious request that we're looking for a editor or something like that so he can edit until Neco has time or something.
@juking You don't even play the game anymore.
@wastedlandering ID's last hope is that you people stop trolling in every damn post there is for ID.

      I haven't played ID in a while but if Blinky the Steamroller goes through I'm 100% returning.
