What's New Games

Attention soldiers! The GUNS UP! team has been hard at work improving the game experience. Which of course includes reading and digesting a lot of the community’s suggestions of the game balance. One of the next items on the agenda is attempting to close the level gap that occurs between attackers and defenders while still retaining roughly the same overall win/loss percentages across the different difficulties. In a number of cases, the defender’s level was often much higher than the attacker’s level, and we are looking to inch those a bit closer in a couple updates.

Here’s what we are tweaking to help defenders close that XP level gap a little bit.

Bunker health and damage are being increased.
The range of the Anti-Air is being increased at lower levels to encourage earlier use
Wall health is being reduced to encourage more diverse base building
Tent spawn rate is being increased at levels 4-7

As games are played the matchmaking system will adjust over time to maintain roughly the same historical Win/Loss rate. This move isn’t about making Defenders win more, but making the average attacker’s ability closer to the average defender’s ability for any given XP level. Enemies will start to feel closer to your own from an XP level perspective and should deliver a more consistent experience on the battlefield. We are expecting to need to make more adjustments as these changes start so thanks in advance for settling in with us as this is worked out. We also think these changes will incentivize players to try new base layouts which should freshen up long-established strategies.

Just by playing you are helping us get the information we need to optimize the experience, but as always feel free to share your experiences and suggestions on our forums.
