I dunno. Calling the Spiker good is just about the same as saying it's OP.

Because insta gibbing isn't really all that useful! But at least it's a thing that is occasionally useful. quote:I've been using it just today and it doesn't seem weak.

Hell, all you'd need to do to get the airspergs to ragequit would make aircraft actually behave vaguely like aircraft. The hissyfits they throw when you so much as mention slightly changing how their pretty princess airborne space ballerina ufo battles work is hilarious.

The AMP is pretty much poo poo though. But so are the other two. They're all lovely ganker pistols that are worse than other faction options if you are either decent at clicking (Repeater, Beamer, Desperado) or aiming (all the others). TR posting about how bad the AMP is are technically correct. Suggesting the Mag-Scatter or Spiker are really any better is where a line gets crossed, because they suck too.

Eonwe posted:and TR opinions generally are poo poo I'm gonna go out on a ledge and say that most of the "TR want OP as gently caress poo poo" came from TE. There are non-terrible TR posters. Hell that's probably why there isn't a goon TR group, TR is just mocked because TE existed. Our more masochistic goons have found plenty of "we want OP poo poo" posters on NC and VS, like c'mon even Arghy wants no dropoff for VS guns.

I stand by that, because they have weapons that get almost no use that I'd pay cash for. Planetside has a terrible community anyway, I'd never dispute that there are people who think that the ZOE shouldn't have been nerfed.

Long story short? Most people's opinions on videogames suck, not just forumside TR, get over it. Phaseshift does suck, just because a few people have managed to find a niche for it doesn't all of the sudden make it amazing. Its a sniper rifle so their all pretty much in the same group except the phaseshift has no bullet drop and infinite ammo which are 2 very distinct down sides that sniper rifles normally deal with. The no sway BASR's are hands down better then the phaseshift in every situation but a few. Another unique sniper rifle is the TRAP which is basically a super no sway BASR. Yes the terminus is a cycler with 10 less rounds, better accuracy and slightly faster RoF, does it deserve to be worth 1000 certs? nope. The PPA is balanced, the marauder/can needs some serious tweaking. Just because you have to change your play style to deal with poo poo doesn't mean its loving OP. I'll remind you a NC max will loving wreck your face up close so you engage them from a distance and run like gently caress when see one charging you. A SAW will loving wreck your face at 50m+ this just means try to get closer or keep moving when attacking one. At the height of ZOE even VS were saying it didn't need movement+dmg bonus and it was mostly due to lovely net code and hit boxes that ZOE was OP, if everything worked fine you'd be able to wreck ADAD ZOE maxes. Your defending people who said the vulcan was fine when it would 1 clip libs and absolutely destroyed every loving vehicle for months. They not only defended strikers they loving said they sucked. They complained that the lynx/TROQ suck and still do.

The Terminus is good, but it's also a 1000 cert version of the T1 Cycler. It's also VS' best faction-specific AR, right up there with the NS-11A (heh). Basically, the only reason people bitch about the Terminus is because VS ARs, in general, range from incredibly mediocre (HV-45, CME) to bad (Pulsar, Equinox), and the Terminus is the lone exception to that rule. Even then, I'd trade SPA and some RoF for ten more rounds in a mag in an instant. I don't even consider that a choice.

Just don't wear them as HA since they clash horribly with the rough square pauldrons (and thigh plate, if wearing armour); I use the Analyst helmet there because it's free, but ideally you'd want one of the gazillion square-ish tin-can type helmets.

Trying not to provoke any balance chat here, what are some good mid-long range LMGs for TR? I helped a TR friend today and he was asking what some good long range guns were, I listed the AMR, TORQ, SABR, AMC, and Cougar but I don't know what's good for LMGs at long range. I told him the Bull was the AMC but worse and then after the fact thought of the NS-15m and TMG-50 but I don't know how effective those actually are.Eonwe posted:Has anyone ever auraxed claymore/prox/bouncing betty for a different faction?

For fights that are going to be outside and at ranges beyond 30m my go to gun is the TMG=50. Its is really quite good and better than most of the NC 167 dmg weapons in my opinion.

I told him the Bull was the AMC but worse and then after the fact thought of the NS-15m and TMG-50 but I don't know how effective those actually are. The TMG is really the only option, most TR things are tuned to mid/close range. The Bull, CARV-S and NS-15 are the best mid-range guns for accurate damage projection (the Rhino is a worse bull with more bullets in the mag) and the CARV and MSW are the close-range DPS machines. I wouldn't use any of them outside 2x range unless you like playing RNG the FPS. Fans posted:Ha! Can I play? The best part of this is the second shot clearly hitting the magrider and .. not registering.
