XP Gain for b2

so i'm pretty frustrated with the way XP works in the game right now -- as you know. I was thinking about the following options:

-- make XP truly global by turning it off, and making hero gain range extremely large. that means every xp kill will be shared;
:: advantages: helps newer players that fall behind stay in level with the rest of the people out there; we dont have level 8's (CooZa) vs level 14's (Bengal)
:: disadvantage: not very strategic, and also decreases the skill gap significantly

-- make a "at least this much level" system
:: basically we run a trigger that expires every so often and makes sure every hero is at a certain experience level; we just set theirs accordingly if it isnt

Overall though, as it stands, I think we should turn off global xp in general. It's skewing the game in epic proportions right now!

make two different modes you can enter in the beginning....
i think it would be possible.....
make one have long exp range
and other have short exp range...
not sure if that is possible.. id have to sift through the triggers

oops delete that topic i made.. i clikced new topic instead of post reply.. sry

i think u should just have modes but if u dont want that you should just leave it. Short range exp gain makes the game more strategic "should i go heal/get items or should i stay. this makes the game more fun and more anoying for others

You could remove level/stat gain completely and simply give stats and a skill point every time so many creeps are killed?

This is an old thread. We're quite happy with XP now.

Actually not so sure.

Maybe it's a bit too fast now. We'll chat on AIM when we get the chance.
