WHAT A GOOD DOG posted:I'm I still locked into using bullshit shotguns on my NC MAX? I remember being outgunned by every other (non-MAX) class because the shotgun shells don't do anything past 10 feet. Yes and no. Slugs are incredible and a must for the shotguns (at all ranges) Falcons are fixed now, and are pretty much the best goddamn weapons any MAX has. Twin rocket launchers with perfect accuracy, capable of one-shotting infantry and utterly wrecking armor, and super cheap into the bargain. I've got about 10,000 kills so far with the NC MAX and it's in the best state it's ever been. We don't have any chainguns or anything still, but suffice to say that the SlugMAX is more than capable when treated with a bit of care Ass_Burgerer posted:Today, a grand total of 2 high-altitude reavers kept the VS air warpgated on amerish.

Why not just make it so you can type someone's name and pay a few bucks to kill them. I should probably shut up with my sarcastic hyperbole lest Higby read it and take it seriously.

Yeah, it's the biggest bullshit cash grab I've seen in game yet. Imagine finding the biggest biolab meat grinder and literally endlessly making GBS threads av grenades into point holds. You really might as well pay for certs at that point since endlessly pulling force multipliers is basically a license to print certs. General Probe posted:Mostly TIW however it was former PREY guys like DeliMane and OneWhoPokesBears plus a few more. I hate dealing with TIW air, they're the biggest pack of ganking shitters. If they can't jump you (almost always with an airhammer) they just run. They will literally never engage a decent pilot without either airhammer/stealth or at least 4 guys. They're a lot like 0PTR, if you see one the other 4 just haven't rendered yet. o muerte fucked around with this message at 06:48 on Jul 15, 2014 |

It should cost something exorbitant like $25 per refill. That way it's too few people consuming it to make a difference in the game overall but SOE still gets to fleece people who would literally pay to not play infantry for even a few minutes

Did you guys trounce a force of 9 Reavers only to have 2 escape, get trounced by 2 Reavers, or lose your whole airball to 9 Reavers who lost 7 of their own number? I thought you guys knew better than to dogfight. Just lock on or ram jeez Epic High Five fucked around with this message at 08:08 on Jul 15, 2014 |

When we pushed them out there was about 9+ reavers so it was likely those 2 high flying reavers had friends behind the rocks.

I was part of a good TR alert last night but had to go to bed before the conclusion. VG was running the show and they were redeploying like crazy, dropping at *least* three squads, if not a platoon, on to NC and VS cap attempts as soon as they were noticed and thwarting them. We used max crashes where ended and the galaxy was used to good extent as a rolling spawn point over Indar comm and snake ravine. It was like, like, I dunno, the TR was coordinated and unified in a purpose. Who won that alert?

If you're talking about the Indar one, TR won it with 36%. If it was Amerish NC won it with 40%. You can look up the rest here. http://ps2alerts.com/allalerts/Emerald

Does anyone else notice recently the quality of the VS players take a sharp nose dive right after prime time? Before the merger the quality drop was not noticeable at all after prime time, but right now it feels like we suddenly recruited short bus TR reject players as soon as the clock strikes 10ish.

I'm sure it's to do with a drop in VS player quality and not that VS was usually rocking 40% pop in the mornings. Lately the NC morning pop has caught up and are actually taking some morning alerts off them.

Its the good outfits taking to farming and ignoring things like alerts. All i care about these days is loving certs, if i'm PL i dont give 2 shits about cont captures or alerts i just want to get everyone stuck into a wonderful farm. Todays onatha biolab farm and that push to mulac were just loving AMAZING, we had 3 loving PLATOONS OF TR FOOT ZERGING TOWARDS 12+ PPA MAGRIDERS. They all had loving lock ons to so you'd just watch them futilely try to lock unto your mag while you drift behind another mag before your PPA gunner kills the idiot for standing still. At onatha TR literally rushed into rooms in a giant ball against AV nades and lashers. Alerts were awesome for focusing fights when the factions would refuse to stand and fight but now with loving AOD/PHX we no longer need to worry about the factions running away because some where theres a zerg hitting a retarded facility and GOKU will follow the certs.

There was an amp station alert when I got on around 7:30 yesterday and VS had 14% population, I helped push out a zone around our amp station to make sure it was a draw then jumped to Indar where NC managed to warpgate us and lock the continent with no more then 12v12 at any point. I had to drive a repair sundy around an amp station to get my daily ribbons since I couldn't find a fight.

I played 3 hours of TR last night. I had more fun and was more effective than ever on my NC. I average about a 1.0 KDR on NC, and I was 3.0 for most of the night on my TR. Finished at around 2.83. The TR pubbies seemed fine as well. They may have not been as mechanically good as many of the NC pubs but they were generally heading towards the objectives, which is good enough. I was very happy with the whole experience. I tried finding K0TH in the outfit browser but it wasn't coming up. Tried every name I could think of and wasn't finding anything. Is that intended? I'll just message someone tonight since it is Totali-Terran Tuesday.

Ok, so does the grenade model itself give the cantaloupe weight? Is it like loaded dice? I'm still amused by a bunch of space warriors throwing lopsided dodgeballs at eachother while a disco laser light show and screaming eagle rockets whizz by.

BadLlama posted:So you can actually kill a person with the concussion grenade itself? I did not know this until now. Concussion grenades (as well as smoke, flashbang, etc.) do a miniscule amount of damage, so yes. If your grenade does that last little 1% to someone it counts as a kill.

Before the merger the quality drop was not noticeable at all after prime time, but right now it feels like we suddenly recruited short bus TR reject players as soon as the clock strikes 10ish. It's not just prime time, it's most of the time. A lot of NC 4th factioners and new players are the result of the merge. If VS caps hossin, they usually get on their VS alts until after an alert that unlocks it. I definitely see this in the early mornings with lack of any command. I see a number of battles where VS just gives up territory to continue to farm at wherever zerg fight it is. During yesterday's indar alert, there was a whole platoon pushing Indar Ex for some reason. I think it was combined dapp and SSGO forces. It's also a great time to farm said newbie players on your TR/NC alts as you see a lot of DA/AC doing.
