Heaven Device in new update ?

[Cr8ToR]

What do you guys think, will they nerf it to the ground ?

[Ladez]

Well, it's kind of overpowered in the first place, isn't it?

[Cr8ToR]

It should be, it occupied big spot for other buildings

Just noticed, what a 5hitty nerf.

[Cr8ToR]

yeah as predicted, it's crap

[Gustuv Wynd]

is it only on new games? I hopped on an existing game and my Heaven Device seems unchanged.

Nop, my ongoing community had it nerf'd.

[SpeedEgoist]

What are the changes? Haven't got a chance to play yet, just wondering.

Haven was so OP.

The Devs seriously cannot help themselves to making the game easy as possible. They don't even nerf, but instead just buff.

After this update will come 3 EZ-mode updates. Watch them buff the A.I to be function 100% of the time and you can now have up to 3 companions.

It's got a cool down now. Didn't catch how long, destroyed it for something more useful.

Was this announced at the dev stream? Patch notes this time seem to skip some stuff, like this change to heaven device.

[Cr8ToR]

I bet some one from modding community will re-buff heaven device soon :)

Not really needed though, with the watchtower safe zone increase (even if watchtowers actually decrease your defensive capability) no zombie will ever get near your base (apart from hordes, but you can easily do absolutely nothing to deal with them on lethal zone)

This includes you shooting without a silinced weapon.

nah but this nerf is just a joke. Theres no use having the haven device no more. Back to parking well placed cars all over my base. Good thing you can have impalers shipped to your base for 1k influence. Thats the new haven device sort of.

it's something like a 20 minute cooldown and i've heard it's "length" is 20 regular zombies, 8 freaks, or 3 blood freaks. Though they have yet to update the description in game.

Yeah, I see the timer now. Looks like if you just get normal zombies hordes it can keep up just fine. I lured a good 50 zeds into it inside of a few minutes. One Plague Juggernaut and it goes into 15 minutes of cool down, though. Perhaps it was a combination of the normal and the jugg too.

Did it always have a timer/overload of some kind? Or is this totally new? To be honest in my thousands of hours of game time I haven't used it all that much. I have always viewed sieges as more of an opportunity for easy influence than something to avoid and the Haeven Device used to set zombie threat to zero.

The 15 minutes kind of makes sense though. that is how long the lure outpost last.
