Greetings to all! Currently here are the big issues faced by the Hangar:
1) The total balance of all units' PC price. Some units, like some Super Robots and Mobile Armours, are cheaper or more expensive than other. A thorough review is needed.
2) In accordance to the issue above, the SRs' level issue. Some SRs are much weaker than the Real Robots, and this needs to be attended to as well.
3) The SR population is small, and it needs to be increased.
Please add other big issues in this thread, if present. Smaller issues will be brought up in other threads.

I have one solution to the problem on the SR population being small.
Stop making real robots. Period.

Currently, what is on my pending list for new units:
1. Wizoll Kai
2. Goshogun
3. F90 II series
4. Mazinkaiser (I'll have a talk about it soon)
All in all, I think we have pretty much our entire SR population...?
As for balance, I'm thinking of something:
1. weenie level: GESPENSTS, IMO should be the cheapest unit around! 60-200 PCs
2. entry level: a bit better than weenies: maybe your ashsaver, etc. 120-300 PCs
3. intermediate level: most of the strong RRs, weak SRs. 200-500 PCs
4. advanced level: boss class units and SRs. 500 PC+
5. ships 1000 PC+

For most newbies, 60 PCs is too damn expensive. I say at least 40 for the low-end units. At least they won't be complaining.

Hmm...alright. But then to compensate for this we need a steep price curve for everything.
Secondly, I've heard that the SRs and RRs are too unbalanced. We might need to tune that a bit. Make SRs Vitality and RRs Agility (if you get my RO type statement, but I digress). I think that SRs could get major stat boosting and RRs get a bit tuning down. That should iron things out.
Now then Alk, whats the issue with Baikanfu that you're talking about?

I've heard most people complain that Baikanfu is an EN drainer. Maybe boost the EN a few points?

IMO, most SRs are EN drainer, like in the games themselves. The big issue between SRs and RRs is still the classic speed thing. Unless we lower the DC range (currently it's 5-20+), things can get really expensive (but then we can start offering higher rewards). To lower the range and extend its length (eg. 1-20+ depending on mech), we can then start using DC -/+1 until +15 even. I know the Maths thing but we have toi apply it somehow. It's not going to be Grade 4 Maths all the way, right? Well, this be my proposal to solve the RRs and SRs speed issue.
Also, there are a number of RR boss units that should retain their higher stats. Notable ones are like The O, Ashtaron, Virsago, some other units, the soon to come Neo Gundam Unit-1 and Red F90. Of course their price will be higher with these.
We can start readjusting the prices once we have finalized the stats. Any suggestions for unit changes, please post in another separate thread.

Lessee... Baikanfu... 120 damage attack, for 15 EN? My ass. I suggest boosting God Hand Smash up to at least 180 damage. The cost needs to be lowered as well; no way in Hell is it worth 460 PCs at Private rank.
I'd also like to bring up the topic of mecha sponsorship. Frankly, I think it's getting out of hand. I can understand REAL weenie units like a frameless Geshpenst, but giving away a Geshpenst AND a Geshpenst frame? Isn't that kinda out of hand? And what's this I hear about tarbis getting a free Eva once they're created?
But seriously... I don't think it's fair to me an' Beano, as Hangar mods, if alfimy can just hand out mecha like nobody's business. I also don't think it's fair to those who worked to get their mecha, either. I can understand if Daba does it (usually there's some sort of incentive before he hands out stuff), but this? I think I should start putting up a note in the AM Announcements thread that says, "Hey all you new SimChamber participants! Contact alfimy to get a free Granzon or Devil Gundam!"
Yes, I'm that pissed about it.

Fuck that.
Magic the Gathering players are even dumb enough to spend 500 dollars on just a stupid card. Take that fucking Black Lotus. You sacrifice it and you just gain a few fucking mana? That's bullshit.
The SimChamber uses "useless" money. There's no way in hell I'll agree to boost Baikanfu's EN.
If they want an EN boost for Baikanfu, let them attend the "Challenge yourself match".

Fine then. Screw mecha sponsorship when unit prices are adjusted.
