Talk:Cheese Effect

Cheese effect in MH3

As seems currently combaing insanely stale base + trap gives insanely stale effect rather then uber stale. Could someone confirm this. --Nux 13:47, 12 June 2010 (UTC)

• It does that for me with Chillbot/Magma, ACRONYM/Magma, and OoI/Magma, so I'd say yes, it did change. Whether or not the change was intentional, I don't know. --Dreamwalker 13:51, 12 June 2010 (UTC)

I guess the update from Draobyek is right regarding the averaging... What is a little surprising to me is this: pairing the "Über Fresh" from The Gingerbread House Surprise withe the "Insanely Fresh" from either Polar, Dehydration or Gingerbread Bases should yield to "Ultimately Fresh" but only results in "Insanely Fresh" as stated in the article. Any ideas or comments? ____m. 12:32, 14 June 2010 (UTC)

I personally am stumped as to why the Gingerbread House is providing an Insanely Fresh. From checking many setup options, I'm sure of Cheese effect= floor((BassEffect+WeaponEffect)/2). When using it, assume 0 = Uber Stale, 12 = Uber Fresh. However, without the Dev-numbers, working out these values is practically impossible. Although, it is possible that Ultimately Fresh/Ultimately Stale has been removed. Draobyek 14:04, 14 June 2010 (UTC)

The average is close, but it's not completely accurate. For example, try an Insanely Stale base (Magma) and any No Effect weapon - you get Extremely Stale, which is not expected (Very Stale) in either 10- or 12-scale models. There are a few other discrepancies as well. From what I can tell, if you consider No Effect as 0, the final cheese effect tends to be biased away from 0. In any case it's definitely something more complicated than we have right now. For now I will calculate using a lookup table of verified effects until the true formula is found. --Hyperchao 13:07, 15 June 2010 (UTC)

History

History of changes needs to be included. Changes in version 3 should not just be directly edited into the article without mention of the old version 2 information. This is to provide players with a connection between old and new to avoid confusion. -- Grexx 11:49, 15 June 2010 (UTC)
