Ty guys for the praise! It definitely has gotten easier over the course of working on my portrait pack, but I completely understand why other people's packs hasn't been updated past their initial release, every time I begin working on the next release I feel like the CJ meme from gta, that being said, I do like it giving the girls new outfits and hairstyles and I've designed the initial versions of the new designs after this release so it's fun grueling work if that makes any sense.
Also despite being on this site for a year and some change and seeing people like CSDev respond to multiple replies at once this is my first which probably just proves the drawbacks of having a single braincell. . . Anyways!
I also think this is a great write up! Some of the information might change with the new release this month but overall I think this consolidates alot of info about the various mechanics in a easy to consume way!
If you don't mind, could I include this in my portrait pack in the future? I plan on doing a mini-campaign tutorial in the future along with some guides and such and one of the things I planned to include were a lot of community tutorials and guides to help consolidate everything so people don't have to dig around through the forum for guides and to promote the different ways and approaches to the game or even to a specific team.
Speaking of which,
subli. Could I include your alternative approach to my custom team in my portrait pack as well? I never got around to rewriting the original one to include your tactic of saving surrounds in the early game to maximize the additional rounds force the other chosen to show up earlier and I think having another tutorial against the same team can highlight the difference/advancement in potential strategies once players get accustomed to the game mechanics. And it would make it easier for my day 1-50 guide since I would be able to start it with advanced techniques knowing people already followed both yours and my previous day 1-12 guide respectively.
I will acknowledge and make a contribution list for everyone's tips and info I put in as well
