I'm thrilled to enjoy these new moves in Spiral Knights, but what new updates will be next for Three Rings to add to the game? I know Battle Sprites are still in the works, but what else could be next? I'm hoping it's some more new missions, Danger or Expansion, or otherwise, and more new bosses to beat... and other new stuff. It's almost half of the year, and they said to have the Battle Sprites ready then. Do they still need a bit more work done? I'm not sure, but I hope the Battle Sprites will be next! If anyone at Three Rings can outline what's next for Spiral Knights, that would be nice. Thanks!
Now that the Dash and Bash features are released... what's next?
They're going to probably release d30+ content with sprites....hopefully?
Any number of things. New Prestige or Vanguard Rank missions. Battle Sprites have yet to come out. Perhaps another member of the Crimson Order wants to come out and play. A player run initiative to begin "Opening the Core" (other than just pouring minerals into the gates).
My hope? Featured Items shake-up. Less costumes and accessories and more weapons and gear. The occasional Scissor Blades is nice to see, but how about weapons with a hard to get Variant? That would be really neat.
prestige has been around long enough without a purpose. MAybe that would be next on the agenda, to create a purpose for having lots of prestige points.
Why does everyone keep shouting "balance", give it a rest already! Im sick of it, the game is fine the way it is right now. If a game is unbalanced you'll know, it will be extremly obvious.
Other than polaris I think everything is balanced atm.. bombers use haze, gunners got buff, swords r supposed to be most dmging.. strikers r supposed to be best at offensive.. recons best at scouting and annoying, guardians supporting and tanking on a point..
I agree with Glitchedpixel.. u guys will ruin the game even more asking for dumb balances..
because having ~10 pieces of equipment be much better than everything else is balanced. right.
@OP: Well, I would assume battle sprites. After that...
P.S It's not so much balancing as tying up loose ends. And some balancing.
There are several imbalances in the game and they are obvious. I'm not even going to bother listing them all but a few are:
Chaos. Specialist Gear. Defensive Gear. Brandishes. Flourishes. Trinkets in LD. Obsoleted Haze Bombs in LD. Blitz Needle.
Krakob is right, so many imbalances in the game. Sad part is, OOO will not do anything about those. I must admit though, they are releasing sorta interesting updates and features. Dash will revolutionize LD, and will allow people who don't go the pathetically overused wolver-and-flourish route to succeed a bit more, which is great.
As a short and unrelated side note, I remember a bug that happened right after a patch about 14 months back where if you spent 6.2k crowns, you actually acquired a random number of CE between 600-900, instead of just 100. Unfortunately, that was fixed :/
Maybe a tiny pinch of balance?
