japinard Posted September 29, 2002 Share Posted September 29, 2002 Is this automatically turned on in quick battles? If it is, can it be turned off? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWB Posted September 29, 2002 Share Posted September 29, 2002 You have three options for Rarity: None, Standard or Variable. None is no rarity whatsoever, standard is the baseline rarity numbers and variable is a twisted form of the standard form. I reccomend variable, as it leads to the most interesting fights.

Kwazydog Posted September 29, 2002 Share Posted September 29, 2002 Yup, wwwb has it right there. Note that the standard rarity is based on actual production numbers whereas variable is based on the standard rarity with some randomness thrown in Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad Harrison Posted September 29, 2002 Share Posted September 29, 2002 Rarity is a cool thing in QB's. Sometimes you even get a negative rarity and so the tank is cheaper than normal! But, I can already see after a few TCP and PBEM games that with standard rarity, you tend to see the same tanks. If you want some variety in your battles, just turn it off and you can get whatever you like for normal cost, just like CMBO was. Great new feature. I always play with standard.

Cameroon Posted September 29, 2002 Share Posted September 29, 2002 I really like the Rarity system and am glad that we have the three options we have. I have yet to play with anything other than variable in the hopes that I can get something great for cheap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kwazydog Posted September 29, 2002 Share Posted September 29, 2002 Chad, make sure you try vairable rarity some more as that is what its for . I had a game the other day where I actually had some cheap King Tigers! Its only about the third time Ive ever bought them in a QB and the first time I didnt feel guilty for doing so, hehe.

Moon Posted September 29, 2002 Share Posted September 29, 2002 BTW, not sure if anybody noticed yet, but you there is a special "rarity" feature for QBs - you cannot purchase Elite units, period. You might still get some (when you buy crack units, a small percentage will turn out to be Elite), but you cannot purchase them directly.

Redwolf Posted September 30, 2002 Share Posted September 30, 2002 I was specptical about the rarity system, but after using it I absolutely love variable rarity. The exitement - what bargins are in today, the sorrow when you see that variable rarity removed the rarity factor of a unit with negative rarity :mad: , the crazy stuff that the opponent brings - but only one kind of crazy stuff.
