My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic Part 8: Mmmcake

[Deleted]

Okay ponies, I need a picture as a guideline for my new drawing. Actually I will need several, but let's start with one. I need a mare, front view with her head either hanging down in front of her or to either side (preferrably her right) and looking down at the ground.

I don't have a picture of that at hand, but this might be a good place to look for one: http://mlp-vectorclub.deviantart.com/gallery/

Oh god that looks so awkward XD just . . . both pictures . . . doesn't look good together.

I know its your vectors vs the pony creators. I really do not have any vectors of zanon to work with at all. nor have found any pony vectors similar to zanon to even color the same. bleh im a rookie at it, just got this paint program yesterday and went crazy hehe.

You are able to turn off auto level skills and auto buy items, which I do because after a while auto buy/skill gets annoying. I can see your problems with it, and since it's beta it may get sorta out, may not, but over all it isn't too bad. Also, i had more of a LoL feel with the items than I do with WoW. If you look most of the items you are able to buy are pretty much LoL's items but with slightly lower stats, a new icon, and new name.

And yes, it is fun with friends, but without em it can get pretty bad. I've played games with koh and oh my god it's fun. Actually, i have yet to solo queue coming out of level 6, and even for most of pre-6 I was queuing with zookz. So I see what you mean on that part. It is easy to master, but at the same time it's still a MOBA and all MOBA's have a learning curve, including this one.

Aww. Well hurry up and get out of pre 6 and you'll be fine.

I would argue, from the little that I've played it, that the learning curve in this is not very... curvy...

I have only played one game, and I already know what the mobs do, what the champions do (Which isn't saying much tbh, because there are only freakin' 5 free champions to play atm, so it's the same teams against each other), what to do and not to do in the jungle and found a build order.

We did lose the fight, but I found out that taking the monkey guy and just going full physical damage is enough to blow anyone up. And my enemy team did exactly the same. I think that boiling it down to a FP-MOBA will increase its non-competitive play and the fun value (Yes, I made that up just now and I am proud of it), but seriously decrease required skill. It's like Team Fortress: You can be a bloody good sniper, but sometimes you are just running out of a door and there's a heavy smiling to your right. I think that, in this game, you can be as tactical as you want, but when it all comes down to it it's a matter of who is having most +DMG, and through that wins. This comes from a lot of things, like all the abilities being AoE (For many of the heroes), and while you can get an RTS overview and manage 2-3 things at a time in a moba or any RTS game, here you can basicly do two things: Run into the mist and hit stuff or run away screaming.

There is definitely skill involved, but not nearly as much as for an example League or SC2. But I think that's mostly because it is new, and all the gameplay ain't online yet. I would love to see more power ups, more focus on the jungle and a bigger boost (in damage, hp and reward) to the NPC's. It didn't take me more than 15min before I started to just clear the jungle and tank minion waves.

Is it for free candy?

Oh God, pictures from Paris. This might not end well.

>_> well i'm busy working on other stuff to work on zanon right now, sorry bud

Yeah I understand. When i said learning curve i didn't mean a big one. Since it's beta there is a lot of work that it needs. I find it very fun, a more casual experience due to what you were explaining (having very low learning curve, and only have 2 option, kill all or run away with your tail between your legs), but still enjoyable. And I think the jungle needs a lot of work, especially fire giant (baron nashor/roshan of smite), it just dies too quickly and easily and isn't even a slight threat, unlike roshan/baron (yeah i know they aren't hard either but fire giant is even easier). Oh well only time will tell.

Yeah, as I said I will be keeping an eye on the game. I can definitely be a super fun afternoon drink-a-few-beers-and-let's-dick-around-in-a-game-that-does-not-include-Scarlet Monestary, but it still has a way to go.
