Nakar posted:I thought that but his IVI KDR is also way, way too high. I've watched his videos and he doesn't seem that good other than suspiciously good accuracy at range (and his overall accuracy score isn't particularly suspect anyway). He's not even alone in this; there's a number of guys in F00L who have similarly crazy KDRs. I have trouble believing that there just happen to be EU players twice as good as DA, and I'd be willing to bet they wouldn't win a Community Clash or Server Smash against Emerald's finest outfits/players either. His KPH is much lower tough ?

Nakar posted:Tross though man. gently caress people who hate that sound, it's godlike and whenever I hear it I'm like "poo poo, some rear end in a top hat around here brought a Tross." The TROSS has the strangest sound. It's not bad, but goddamn is it weird compared to just about everything else in the NC arsenal. And I can't figure out a decent way to describe the sound. It's not like the Brrrrrrrrrrrrt sound of a MCG or the unholy racket of a Gauss SAW.

Gaghskull posted:Hey, the NC get several great carbines. The GD-7F and the AC-X11 are both monsters at what they do. Even if they both have trade offs in order to do so. The more I've used it, the less I've liked the GD-7F and accepted EHF's position. Sure, it's a bullet hose. But it's got atrocious uptime with that lovely reload and is basically rendered obsolete by the Cyclone.

Some F00ls are legitimately scary in infantry vs infantry (Ironically is a nightmare with the Orion, took me forever to kill him even with a Jackhammer in a biolab ), others less so and tend to stick to the easiest farming vehicle available (ex. Choon) or AT MOST a fatsuit. Several of them stream so you should be able to compare their performance to Vonic's if you like. A couple other things that may affect KDRs is that outfits like f00l and BLNQ acknowledge that they completely ignore objectives at all times and only play for certs; and that when in the air some of those outfits actually have truces with each other - they will ignore enemy airspergs and let each other farm their ground troops

I wish the warden (All Battle Rifles) were a little bit better. I have tons of fun using it but the amount of effort you put in to get a kill could of been used to kill 2 or 3 guys with any other gun.

Trouvaille posted:I get the feeling I would be better at this game if I took the time to l learn the basic subtleties of 'shoot mans'. I SAS messing around last week with 'no ADS just shoot into they die' and it worked out pretty well. I can't seem to kill anyone this week with that tactic. I'm back to my normal 'ADS while moving and aim for the head' and it's working okay I guess? Any veterans want to provide some sage wisdom on the basics? Minimap, minimap, minimap. Come at people from an angle. If there's a line of folk running from the sundy to the front, skirt around them and try to flank. The time to kill in this game is short enough that if you're able to catch them looking the other way, you stand a pretty decent chance of getting them before you get yourself got. Don't count on running into folk with ADS up, you should ADS when you know someone's about to pop into your line of sight. Also also, most sights are less than 50 certs, and have improved my game REMARKABLY. Same with forward grips, I really only hipfire if I'm panicking.

A Tartan Tory posted:I love how this is a subtle Euros are trash post. Given that my IVI on Connery is approaching 7 or so, I suspect the server population and overall player quality may be factors (I don't think I'd ever get that high on Emerald), but it still seems hard to believe. Ex-Mattherson outfits and Ex-Waterson outfits seem to stack up pretty equivalent in Emerald stats too. I would expect the best players on Woodman or Cobalt or whatever to be alike unless there's some other factor at play here. Watching GylleDahl stream, he doesn't seem remarkably better than any good Emerald player, but the population and pace of the fights he's in do seem to be lower and slower. Basically I'm saying non-canon servers don't matter, son, but I'm curious why they don't matter, son.

Then again, we thought AOD was scraping the bottom of the barrel and PHX shows up after the merge. I actually feel sorry for calling AOD bad now.

And that rear end in a top hat is meeeee! Although I'm noticing a lot more NC falling in love with it lately. Turns out "ridiculously accurate highest damage full auto rounds with LMG DPM" is the sort of thing a lot of people can really work with! I love the sound. I get questions from people sometimes after I kill 3 people with one mag at 60m or so as to what gun I'm using because it's THAT obvious it's unique. As an engineer, the sound means "AMMO PACK PLEASE" because holy poo poo that reserve disappears fast As for carbines, there is only the X11 and Cyclone

Watching this stream some of these guys' reaction times are just shamefully bad. If you can pop out from cover against an AI turret 15m away from you and kill the guy before he even starts shooting, he must be on downers or something. Or heavily liquored. Actually, that might explain it. Told you.
