I genuinely dont know how I feel about combat terraform. I like the cool things it can do. What I don't like is the amount of perfect split-second UI-mastery that it requires, the all-or-nothing nature of it. Also, although I haven't really seen it yet, I bet that you could get into a terraform war with 2 comms or whatever that might get finnicky and janky as hell. There's a lot of situations I could imagine where it might just become a quick-time event.

Now, I don't feel like I've seen it nearly as often as I theoretically could, but I bet if we had some terraform-Godde playing the game, it'd be OP as shit relative to however it feels like now. Terragodde would be shot-blocking skirmishers, he'd go engineer commander every time and never lose it, he'd trap cyclops' every time they slowed down to navigate wrecks.

That

after
however
many
years
of
it
being
as
it
is
now,
the
veterans
are
used
to
things
as

pushback
whether
there's

Regarding civil-engineering, non-combat terraform, I actually would like to see it experimented with in competitive games a bit more, and would petition to test out a decrease in cost of 5, 10, or 20 percent - even if that's just to compensate for the APM-cost/UI-wrestling.

Woah there top gun, let's say you put down that buff ray and we talk this thing out like adults, before someone gets hurt.

I've tried to use quake against natural terrain and was unimpressed. For 400/1600 metal, I was hoping to be able to turn Mt. Everest into a handicap ramp.

How should the terraforming mechanic be rebalanced (if ever)?
