Was fun, but needs some sort of explanation on how clicking eggs moves you in the cardinal direction of the egg you click. Perhaps just a message the first time you click each one, telling what it does.

Briefing explains what to do, although not in great detail. :bleh: I like your suggestion, but at the same time I like watching people try to figure it out.

Its a new idea but I just don't think its practical. :crazy: It also takes some time form when you click to when it actually moves...

Why do all most of your maps consist of a player moving a Zerg Scourge into a goal? O_O'

Also, noticed a big balance problem. The middle players on each team are kinda..rigged. They can get to the ball before any of the other two players on their team, and if the enemy team is missing a middle player, the team with one has a huge advantage since it's laid out likeso:

[P = Player B = Ball]
P

P.........B

P

It should be more like:
....P

P.........B

....P

Getting the ball first is not an advantage and as long as the players are the same distance away as the other corresponding player on the other team, then its fair.

Or to make it even better (balance wise) have it:

P-----P-----P
|-----B-----|
P-----P-----P

Or some odd combination or even randomized so that no matter what its a fair chance for each player to get to the ball at the same time. :D

There is no balance problem with the starting positions.

So then by this logic your saying that the player who is in the middle on both sides (moves=Left to goal/Right to goal) has the same chance as a player on the outside (moves= Left, down, and exact timing/Right, up and exact timing)???

I'm saying it doesn't matter, therefore it's not an issue, therefore there's no balance problem.

The game is fine how it is.

I managed to get an easy advantage by hosting a game with the first 2 slots open on team 1 and the first and third on team 2. Obviously, player 2 had a huge advantage.

Play against someone who knows how to play.

The fact is if two people are going after the ball, the one who actually hits it last will have the advantage, because he will have more force as a result of the first person's force being decreased first.

Like who? I will play you right now on b.net... I will show you that it is an disadvantage...

Ok, let me break it down more...

If you start in the center, all you have to do is just select the left-center most egg and you will move left and then grab the ball. Then all you have to do is just aim (don't select anymore moves) straight for the goal... If you were on the top or bottom of either side, you have to select left, then down, and hope that the timing is just right for you to select the ball. No it is fair if you have 6 players and the teams are even in knowledge but it isn't fair overall... :crazy:

If you just click left/right and go straight towards the goal you'd lose to anyone that knows how to play the game. Each position may play differently, but one isn't better than the other.

All you would have to do is out move the other defenders and then make it into the goal.

Which is what you should be doing for the whole game. And part of the game is defense, any decent player wouldn't let you easily get around.

If you're 1v1ing both players should start in corresponding positions, but in a 2v2 it doesn't matter whether one person is in the center or not. If the person in the center is able to get around two people then he deserves to score.

You seem to be getting side tracked. All that I am saying is that you have an advantage for starting in player 2 and player ~6's position. Now yes, granted that both of the players hit the right/left egg at the same exact time and the game explodes, it would be fair.
