1. Find your bank file
You should find the bank file on Windows:
My Documents / Starcraft II / Accounts / xxxxx / Your Account ID / Banks / 2-S2-1-241693 / Banks.SC2Bank
Or on a Mac:
~/Library/Application Support/Blizzard/StarCraft II/Accounts/xxxx/Your Account ID/Banks/2-S2-1-241693/Banks.SC2Bank

i went under banks and did not find that folder. 2-S2-1-241693 / Banks.SC2Bank

weird.

i should mention one thing. when i had everything in place, i played 1 vs 1 with my friend.

after that we played 2 vs 2 against some people, and they left during race choosing screen.

next game, we played 4 vs 4, then 3 people left during race choosing screen, 1 from opposite team, and 2 from our team.

but this shouldn't have affected the bank files right?

again, my laser is still pink but everything else is gone

First of all, thanks a lot for a great mod. It is IMO the best mod right now in a TD style. Second, I'm quite happy to see a comrade from the motherland doing a game in a such high quality. Third, I can't say that I am a pro in this game (~70 games), but it is really addictive, and i've shown the game to 4 friends of mine and all 4 are bringing their friends into the community, and I cant stop playing it myself. I cant say I can play more than 3-4 games in a row, but still it is quite fun.
My idea's about the game are:
- I would love to be able to pick monsters to check their hp and see some info about them
- Would be great to see, who's leaking by simply putting mouse at random monster
- Would be nice to see, who's tower is that
- Would be nice to see some button which would allow to see the whole wave tree, who's following what etc
- Dont really understand why damage is in a range. Does it means that it all depends on a luck?
- Would be awesome to see some page in which one can know for sure which ultimate requires which rare resources (mb small icons or something like that).
- Would be great if one clicks a resource and see what one can build with it.

I still feel that some games are ruined just because you had a bad luck and you got for instance 0 food in a game, and you simply dont have any tanks. I've had games with 6-7 metal's, 6 golds, 5 farms etc, but no something really essential. I love the idea of random minerals, but I dislike the idea of no farm / no mana / too much gold and nothing else. Or like 2-3 sub on the main but me have to rush for mid just to get something that I really need. Would be amazing to see T1 resources (sub) mid 99% of the time, with gold being super rare (2 max). But that is just my opinion, I cant say that i'm good or bad with the game.
Ghost seems to be superior to Darpa, Snow Queen looks better than any other unit in the tree (upped mage doesnt feel like it is giving huge damage). Ghosts seem to counter Idol well, but if idols have few mag ultimate and few Anubises, seems like this is OP combo. And one team can only build it by having a luck involved hardcore. Kinda like in poker. Skill does help, but after all it all comes to what you get.

We've played several 4v4 games with friends and it feels like it is very luck based rather than experience based. We've had a guy that played his 3rd game. He had 3-4 income even at the end, and was smacking waves from 1 till last. And we had a guy with ~100 games experience having no good set of resources and struggling through waves all game long.

Also sending 4+ void rays in certain waves seems like an OP strategy :D

^^ luck based? then you're not putting $ into the right stuff at the right time. even w the shittiest luck w res, my team (i have a list of 10+ guys i play w) was able to win or finish the game 95% of the time. you really only need 1-2 mines of each res and just max the output of each res to finish the game & even without oil sub or crys, u can still finish the game if u get the right combo of units

sending is always an op strat. remember this is based on STD. on STD, you can send certain units on certain waves to win / end the game. so obviously you can do the same on this game.

sending 4+ voids? its just as effective if you send a mule, muta, lurk, diam, etc on certain waves.

who's we? play us, even w the best luck w res, we'll make sure you guys lose every time and survive all your sends on those certain waves

just cuz someone has 100+ games doesn't mean they know how to play it op. ive seen guys with 200+ games who still have no idea what theyre doing or duno what's op. maybe you should state their elo instead of how many game theyve played. i've seen guys with 300+ games with 1300 elo cuz they always lose.

Thanks for the comprehensive feedback, dudes.

komodowaran
My statistics say that evil conjurer wave isn't the main wave ppl lose at. But it was slightly nerfed since you posted. Not 1 scorpion, as you suggested, just a bit.

Mixed race have a good chance to have a food, but I don't want to force it to appear, because it's not critical. They can only have mana, and still be able to create 2 crusaders and 2 archers, which is enough to get enough money to start spawning omething serious.

Special rules for noobs is a good idea, and I may add it in a future.

Upgrading drill laser is also a good idea, but then ppl will drill opponents' towers. They do now, but it doesn't deal too many damage. And forbidding this activity doesn't feel right. I'll think about it.

FoUw

Buffs of not mech are indeed can't be applied to mech. Only bufferfly can buff mech, but not other kinds.

About your other points: some of them are already in my list, some added, and some I will think about.

blackpimple

Thanks, I'll check the triggers to see if 1v1 or when ppl leave on loading screen can ruin the stats. And if click the "Rewards" button at top left, you'll see what rewards you still have. I think the Elo one should still be there.

mynhauzen

Well, Probes and Zealots is also from a russian dude and it's good too.

About your suggestion, same: some are already in my least (I just not too fast implemening them), and some I need to think about.

What did you mean by this "dont really understand why damage is in a range. Does it means that it all depends on a luck?"?

zolden - thanks for response.

elo one is still there but the mine is still the original skin. games finished is still there. again, i still have pink laser.

i JUST logged on, and rest of the reward reset again! hm.... to note, im on a new mac powerbook with no antivirus and also did not delete any files.



I should note that people who did have 1750+ elo before you added the rewards, were not able to receive the elo reward after reward system was implemented.

So I ask again, since you did not answer, do I have to go back below 1750, n then come back to 1750 again for the reward to be in effect? or can this be fixed on the next patch update so everyone with 1750+ receive the skin? would hate to do this btw.

what about the rest of the rewards? are they gone for good and i have to earn it again? - if so, can you hook me up w something on the next patch? pretty unfair since i played / worked hard to get the rewards!

thanks bro

blackpimple,
as I said, I dont really have much of experience so I dont know for sure mechanics and exacly what needs to be done to win every game or at least 90%. I win 70-80% of the games, but still have a lot of games in which i'm like - wth? what's now?
Zolden_ ,
well damage is written in range, meaning its not like its 32. Its 25-40. So it sounds like it is based on luck. Whether its 25 or 40. Or does it depends on a certain unit (armor etc)?

hard to say w/o actually seeing it. but dont judge people based on amount of games. judge people by elo. if they have over 1650+ theyre usually good players. anything below are caca players.

factor in the other team's sends. you'll learn a lot too if you play a few games of solo n find where the flaws are in ur game.

hate to admit it, but it took me a while to figure it out and beat it on solo. now, i can beat it almost every time no matter what res i get. this is why i say its not luck based, altho luck w res helps, but not necessary.

Every top map violates at least one rule. Most top maps offer donor rewards. Blizzard would have a pretty scant arcade if they enforced it, and rightfully so.
