what are the future plans? :devil:

i know DavidM thought jetpacks etc made worms 3d boring, but thats what made it so cool, worms3d was boring cuz of the lack of cool gadgets, i mean a super fountain, a grenade, a normal bomb and missiles, that not long as fun as teleport to the other side, use ur jetpack and shoot a sheep at your opponent!
:devil:
suggestions here plz!

What I find boring about DBW is the "waiting game". That is when both ball-carriers are shooting at each other, and to avoid being immobile they both wait until the end of the turn. This really slows down the game.

I would suggest an option where moving counts as a turn when there are a certain number of players. So if there are say less than 3 players alive on your team, you can either move or shoot.

I would also like a small number of defensive options. For example on your turn you could place a sandbag wall about as high as the player, which would protect against one explosion in front of the player. So if there was an explosion in front, the player would not be hurt, and the wall would disappear.

Or perhaps on your turn you could "buy" a volley. so if you know a bomb is going to be shot at you, you would select the volley, and then once throughout the next turns, you would be able to volley the bomb away.

What I would most like to see is the ability to fully customise weapon loadouts. Instead of just Cannon-only, normal, and extreme, I would like to be able to select how many of each weapon the players will start with and their health.

Since the first week of it's release I havn't seen anyone play DBW. Just 4 servers, 2 locked, zero players. What gives?

we play a lot of pugs in #warpug on PGPN, however, EJ can't keep up a public server, so the warpug server is left locked. Support in #warpug could help though :)

i had a mode in mind where all play at once (but still limited walking and only 1 shot a round)

sounds like a good idea

only one one to find out if it works, that is to test it :lol:
