If anything an AV nade nerf will highlight just how bullshit Infantry 2.0, I mean MAX, suits are and they'll be nerfed in .... six months. Who am I kidding, long live our robotic overlords.

Arghy posted:Airsperg drama, the best drama. quote:Well, it has been my experience that to assume offense 99% of the time Mattherson and now Emerald players. It turns out he's still mad from that time Miller had complete air dominance and did gently caress all with it, losing 55-36. Mattherson lives on. Right after that match, everyone called Miller out on their lovely, worthless air and he took offense to it. In Miller's next match, half of their air players just didn't show up because they were shamed for keeping 24 ESFs in A2A loadouts to camp the 6 ESFs in our warpgate. The last weekend's two matches are good lessons how you use air superiority. Wycliff's trying to explain it but it looks like Miller's air lead still has his fingers in his ears, even after 5 months!

Unless you think those red indicators are invitations to a tea party, I would get the gently caress out of there before grenade two is in the door. The whole nade issue is one of poor base design; shoving over 40 people into a tiny room is just inviting people to nade the poo poo out of you. And can you blame them? I'm sure as gently caress not rushing headlong into that many guns unless I can take some out without exposing myself first. That's like CQC 101.

Because it does gently caress all against direct hits (despite saying that would be a thing for what, a year now?), SOE throwing their hands up and going "Hey guys, you can throw a grenade once every minute and never run out! Also the class with rockets now comes with one free rank of grenade bandolier, show them flak havers that they can go gently caress themselves!" and the fact I spent over 1,211 certs for something that does gently caress all in protecting me when I actually need it, I may as well use those certs and suit slot for something else. Like putting grenade bandolier on every class. VVV Why must you trigger me Leal fucked around with this message at 02:57 on Oct 14, 2014 |

Wasn't Flak originally more about keeping the vengeful rocket-hand of the Sky Gods from completely obliterating you as you fled to cover? Edit: Do med kits just not loving work if your ping is over 100? Like 90% of the time I try to use one on Emerald, my HP goes back up for a second then immediately drops back to what it was before.

I don't have much of an issue, and my latency ranges from usually 40ish up to 180-200 in the really lovely fights. You are using the instant heal ones right, not the heal over time things?

Having this same problem in large fights on Emerald as well. Pretty cool new bug in addition to recon darts not showing up. Same latency issues are also letting my jetpack last up to 5 seconds longer than it should as well.

The reliability of medkits drops real quickly when the server starts making GBS threads itself at all. Restokits can persist a little longer, but they'll also become useless pretty rapidly.

The recon darts may not be showing up but the effect is still there. I spent a lot of our meatgrinders just spraying darts everywhere and picking up motion assists. Also I discovered that attacking East Canyon from the south is the best goddamn time ever be using a Lasher. There's a rock formation that gives you a perfect view of the staircase that leads under the cap point and keeps you out of view of the spawn. I had the whole area locked down with Exmag Lasher and the Marker Implant, which fed me spotter bonuses against anyone who got away.

Making something more costly to spam doesn't change the fact that when it's used the first time it's incredibly powerful, same for MAX suits. Shield doors would go a long way towards helping with this, if not by acting like doors then by only admitting so many HE weapons to pass through per several seconds, but overall base capture needs to be expanded to less claustrophobic areas, as well as more points that are separated through special means. Maybe some that only LA can reach, or some that only an infil can briefly hack access to, things to break up the amount of people that can get in at any one time.

I really don't want something that helps the defenders too much such as your door idea. You almost have to use nades and explosives when people are squeezed into a box like that, especially if the hex is populated enough to have pop-in issues. Honestly though, having more bigger cap areas seems like its the key. Open air courtyards should be more common (ideally with most having some sort of air cover so they're not completely open) or the giant warehouse buildings that are becoming more common, such as the ones at NC Arsenal. You're a lot less likely to see grenade spam in those areas beyond getting past camped doors...or putting a sticky when a bunch of idiots have taken cover behind the same piece of terrain.

Is it just me or is every other shot with the Phoenix result in the missile flopping to the ground and doing its best  impression.That combined with its random refusal to reload from an ammo pack makes using it an incredibly frustrating prospect.

Easily one of the best purchases you can make right now because those of us with tomcats will pretty much drop whatever we're doing to put them on and go trolling. It just never fails. Plus they turn air 2 air libs from a chore into easymode They get even angrier once you learn to use the nosegun and use them both to dunk them even harder. We dont run an airball often but mentioning tomcats is the fastest way to get one going Fart Car '97 fucked around with this message at 12:23 on Oct 14, 2014 |

The best and only legitimate ways to troll air are the following, where the Haram is cancelled out by the Fard of sheer awesomeness. 1. Ram the Jinn with aircraft. 2. Decimator the Jinn from the ground. 3. Shoot the Jinn from the ground with an AP cannon. 4. Use Allah's favourite weapons, the coyote missiles and A2A missiles, against the Jinn. So sayeth the Caliph Abu Bakr al-Vanudi. Insha'Allah Al-kifāya. With your help, this Jihad against airshittery can be successful.
