Hi Heroes.
I'm currently redesigning the stand up mechanism. At the moment it's a straight 20 TP cost to stand up. Which can be frustrating when trying to build up TP. So I'm changing it to give options!
Going forward I'm looking at giving players a choice of spending 20 TP OR doing a QTE to stand up. When attempting the QTE, the following will be true:
Players will automatically stand up after 3 attempts. So can't get stuck in a loop of being down
The first attempt will be the most difficult, and the third the easiest. Making it easier to stand up as time passes.
Attempting the stand up QTE will build some TP.
The difficulty of the QTE will be affected by 2 states. "Distracted" and "Speed Factor". If an enemy has inflicted distract on the hero, they will have less time to complete the QTE. If the hero has cast "Speed factor" on themselves, then they will have more time to complete the QTE (and these cancel each other out)
To test the current thresholds for this QTE, I have created a very simple tester (above) It's literally just a room with all the different possible levels of this QTE. Which are (From left to right)
1st stand up attempt - Distracted (Hardest)
1st stand up attempt - no status
1st stand up attempt - Speed Factor
2nd stand up attempt - Distracted
2nd stand up attempt - no status
2nd stand up attempt - Speed Factor
3rd stand up attempt - Distracted
3rd stand up attempt - no status
3rd stand up attempt - Speed Factor (Easiest)
If you have time and would like to help, pleas download and attempt all the QTE's, then let me know what you think in the poll below!
Any further thoughts and comments will be welcome in the comments below or over on discord :).
Thanks!

I am not sure as to giving an opinion right now, so I will provide data, I tried 3 times, the 3 distracted in sequence (from the hardest to the easiest). And got the following results: 1- Succeeded, Failed, Succeeded 2- Failed, Succeeded, Succeeded 3- Failed, Succeeded, Succeeded I haven't tried the others, but I would say it's balanced (and I haven't seen the results when I was forming my opinion)

Yeah I'd say it's a good balance. Losing QTE's during an honest attempt can add to the sense of being dominated by the superheroines and that's definitely a good thing. Okay, so now let's try another QTE test showcasing a preview of CJ's prowess! 🙂🙂🙂
