The Orion leaderboard is just kind of a general collection of "Hmmm" moments. There are definitely some people with realistic stats despite being high, e.g. they have high Acc/HSR but mortal KDRs (suggesting they rush people and kill until killed themselves), or they have high KDR/KPH but low Acc/HSR (suggesting they kill a lot of people but aren't super efficient at aiming). But then you have two of the top five users in kills and KPH, well, being NivX. Also, all five of the top Orion Accuracy users are in AC, and they're only not also the top five HSR users because a mysterious gentleman named OtakuWizard from Woodman has a 56% HSR after 28,000 Orion kills.

Does anyone know the recursion overlay programmer? I have a feature request I think would be pretty hilarious. I'd like a separate custom sound config file that plays user defined audio when you kill either a member of an outfit, or a specific person. I need to be able to specify weapon type as well as sanctioned/unsactioned as well. TL;DR: I want recursion to play the Lysa Arryn clip: "YOU DO NOT FIGHT WITH HONOR, SIR" every time I kill an AC or DA member with a DA unsanctioned weapon.

Those stats actually look a little low to me. I know I don't usually dip into 130 territory unless both my arms are crammed entirely up my own butt. Meanwhile, Mad Katz refuses to even so much as look at my blueprints for an eyebrow-controlled gaming mouse. There is no justice in this messed-up garbage planet.

I just dash out of blast radius, turn around, and cringe (my character does the first two, there's no cringe emote in-game yet so I do that part IRL, this probably should happen though). God yeah. The worst is when you're ducking out of a spawn camped building to toss one and it sticks to the guy who just ran through you, who then runs ... back into the spawn. I haven't had any 12-kills yet but I know they're coming.

It'd be broken as hell but I would give any amount of certs for an ammo pack upgrade that let you refill grenades. There's no way you could balance it, though.

Considering the Orion is a purpose-built MLG FPS turbosperg weapon it's not surprising that so much of the top 10 are obvious or questionable AC, however, is pretty much in the clear. They're just all really, really good at doing one thing (defending bases as an HA with Orion/Commish/Deci) and literally never do anything else. JHFO is suspicious but it's primarily because of his penchant for chaining headshots from across amp stations on 3-4 people in rapid succession, and also everything else he does. As far as Orion poo poo goes, I have what I call the Posseee Line, based on the stats of the VS player who is as obsessed with the Orion as I am the Reaper/SAW. Anybody above it is very probably cheating, anybody at or below is fine. The other day we caught some AC attacking Waterson and proceeded to farm the hell out of them because they couldn't fathom bringing more than one spawn, and because they were all HAs they were forced to shove themselves through the infantry openings that were so thick with SAW fire that nothing would make it through. They were FURIOUS, and I mean like LEXINGTONSTEELLOL levels of furious, that we were using MAXes and were dropping while squads onto sundies to kill them. One tried to call me out saying I live in a fatsuit which, despite my love of them, I'd be surprised if I had 1/3 the time in a fatsuit as I have as a medic. Eventually they bailed to who even knows where and we were left to mop up AT. Oh, and like most fights with the VS yesterday, they were pushed backed to their spawn the moment they dropped below 68% pop. What the hell VS? You're supposed to have the bads ghost cap, not lose both tech plants on the busiest continent I guess they thought it was a PAL thing? Fans posted:You betcha!

Anything that has now, or has ever had access to underbarrel anything is also unsanctioned. That means the Gauss Rifle S lol

Indeed, where is de balance. Where can it de. Well I'll tell you where it isn't: In an argument between NC and TR over who has the worst guns: quote:At each new patch, NC has saw power weapon diminished and the result is that we never, could win, we don`t pass more than 3 sectors away the Warpgate. quote:YOU complain about being inaccurate?!?!?! quote:Anchor gets out DPS by the likes of the MSW-R and Orion. and the Jackhammer is also outplayed by the other Shotguns in CQC, Jackhammer has better range thats all. quote:The Gauss saw goes all over the shant, never mind about controlling it under recoil, the bullets just go whereever they want, that red dot is more of a 'might possibly go here' mark. quote:Venting rage at the fact that Connery VS can only use Maxes and apparently they are good for all situations with equal lethality. quote:As a Connery player I sadly must second this.... VS on our server are out of control!!! I'm so sick of PPA and Super Fast Rocket dodging Maxes... Anyone that would argue that a NC or TR Max is more difficult to kill than a VS max needs to get a brain scan!! And if you'll be honest enough to admit the VS max is the most difficult to kill, then the next question is... Why do they also have High velocity, High Damage Plasma guns that can down a player, or vehicle equally? It makes 0 sense that VS get the high mobility in addition to high damage. I'm not saying they have the "highest damage" weapons because I believe DPS wise most weapons are relatively equal. However, why in the world does one faction get increased running speed/mobility without any penalty? Nakar fucked around with this message at 20:46 on Aug 18, 2014 |

No it's pretty bad honestly, or it was in the resource update. There are a number of MAX primary players on VS, moreso than TR. NC probably has a bunch too but I haven't played not-NC on Connery in awhile. Besides, clack-clack-clack-clack-clack of VS MAX arms is my trigger.

I really do appreciate it and wish you would keep on doing it. Thank you for going through the trouble. I have two grinders now, no extended mags, but I do have slugs. Should I get the Mattocks as well? Does the range and big projectile speed increase help slugs and shot much? Or are grinders pretty much all I'll ever need?

Honestly, if you have dual Grinders and have slugs on them you don't need to dump more certs into Mattocks. They are marginally better at it but the Grinders have their own appeal with the larger magazines. Just get exmags on your Grinders, since that's kind of the whole point of them.

Fart Car '97 posted:Do SMG kills while playing HA count towards the SMG kills directive for light assault? I doubt it, or they'd also count for infiltrator, letting you farm directives for two classes while playing neither of them. Which would be pretty  , but I spent nearly all my time auraxing the PDW as those two classes, and I still need smg kills for both to get their respective directives.
