It would be awesome if people would follow tactical stuff, but nobody does so dont bother even playing this garbage game in the first place. EDIT: And before anyone says something stupid, I am in GOON/Higbys Heroes, but there dosent seem to be anyone playing atthe moment, so Id say dont bother with this poo poo. EDIT: You can kick me out if you want, it dosent change what I said one bit, this game is crap. Go play Battlefield or something...

After reading that I'm happy I decided on a whim after I auraxed the SAW to stop using it and go for EM6 and GD-22 ones rather than any other weapon classes. Looks like I'm going to be playing HA for ever. I have to actually use the EM1 now though, ugh. Oh, and the NS-15, but I'm totally OK with that. VVVV I've characters across all factions on four servers, my main is NC.

I've honestly hardly ever had a problem. Are VS a special kind of poo poo with it or something? You can hit Enter on the Numpad and silence anyone who's being particularly shrill. Almost all Prox Chat for me is people thanking me for Resses, apologizing for TK's and occasionally using it for communicating something useful. Maybe I lead a charmed life!

A good thing we get such heavy hitters as the Orion +15 rounds, while the NC get a loving 150 round LMG that still deals 200 damage. But my long reload you might say! It's a good thing you have 150 rounds of 200 damage bullets; reloading is for after the battle son, not during! A FESTIVE SKELETON fucked around with this message at 10:53 on Jul 24, 2014 |

All I want to see happen is having an entire platoon with a single valkyrie pilot for every 2 mans, all engineers and dropping anti tank mines along a road that an enemy armor column is heading. I mean running out there on foot and you risk some heat sperg sniping you, instead get a bunch of valkyries to do a quick flyby dropping 4-8 mines per ship. Or do what the NC does and replace gal with valks with an engineer passenger dropping his AT mines while a heavy is on the other side dropping his c4 then firing a rocket into the sundy. EDIT: Also the justification of a longer reload time for more bullets (and even the highest damaging ones) sounds like something a TR player would unironically claim that their weapons aren't powerful.

I'd make a TR alt if the pistol was called the El Presidente.Epic High Five posted:
The thing I'm liking about it is I win a lot of "fair" fights with more skilled players, because I can totally kill a HA with NMG before they can kill me due to that extra 100 dps. I play really aggressively (recklessly), so being able to barge in places and not die to that poo poo is pretty exciting. quote:You'll very likely be BEYOND ready for a change when you get near auraxing it. Probably! Still more exciting than an effective 3rd reaper aurax.

Hahaha yeah late night/early morning is really bad in about 9-10 hours from this post it will slowly begin to climb. Why is every aurax gun a copy of each other? why cant we add some interesting things like different guns/attachments? Give the darkstar exmags/grip/comp then it would literally be the best VS guns cause seriously DPM. It would be better if you just chose the unique gun from each factions selection and made that special. Higby since we are going to get all the directives in a huge lump once they get released can we get a detailed list so dont go running around not knowing we have these awesome loving camos/guns/titles unlocked because we just had 40 dumped on us?

I can't find a link or anything to an official post but I think it was something like auraxing five guns within their category; so auraxium medals on the Orion, SVA-88, Pulsar LSW, Ursa, and Flare unlock you the Betelgeuse for the LMG category.

illrepute posted:What's the deal with these Auraxium guns I'm hearing about now? They sound like something you can only get with SC. It's the opposite actually. These weapons cannot be purchased with station cash. They are only unlocked by achieving the Auraxium directive related to their weapon, which requires auraxium medals with a certain number of guns of that type. For example, 5 auraxium medals for LMGs gets you the Auraxium LMG for your faction.

People say the Trac-5 and T5-AMC are solid but I dunno what they're smoking. The Lynx and Cougar are where it's at. One's the not quite as pretty twin of the TORQ and the others a Razor with exmags because TR don't give no fucks. The Jaguar's only 250 certs if you want a cheap option though. It's nice enough.

TR irons can be kinda bad, actually. Honestly there's maybe 2-3 ironsights in the entire game that aren't awful and all but one of them are on NC/NS weapons. Just grab the 1x, on the TRAC-5 it's 5 certs.

They really should have a few 5 cert options that the game just screams at you to buy in order to give new people the satisfaction of unlocking something right away, which would probably lead to more new people coming back because it felt like they progressed early on.

But we have the Lynx so there's really no reason to use the Trac-5 and the Cougar is the best for being a tree dwelling rear end in a top hat. The T5-AMC is almost identical stat wise to the NS-11C and no one's going out of their way to push that gun on anyone. Fart Car '97 posted:Pretty sure the cheapest reflex sight is now 30 certs?
