Fans posted:This is like. 95% of all bases. Just gotta know how to get in is all. Right now bases have either 1 or 3 capture points, all of which are meant to be captured by infantry. I think it would be a fun experiment if there were a base where a point were capturable by air, and a different base where a point were capturable by vehicles. People point out that non-infantry stuff is pointless for capturing bases, and that's absolutely true, but it would be neat if they could play more of a role in certain bases / situation. If it comboed with the ANT / NTU / whatever they're maybe gonna introduce if they ever patch this dead game, it could make things interesting.

If 50% of your XP comes from kills and assists you've a farm factor of 1. The higher it is the more you're farming kills instead of doing literally anything else. It's not that important really. I have a Farm Factor of 0.254 on MostlyFans, because I'm guessing shared vechicle XP doesn't count as a kill and I live in Harassers and Sunderers. Also it turns out leading a Squad gives a poo poo ton of XP. Fans fucked around with this message at 14:45 on Sep 4, 2015 |

Well, I play Light Assault more than any other class combined and all you do with that class is kill things so that's probably why.

Keeshhound posted:The gently caress does recoil do for a launcher that fires lock-on rockets? Well the striker isn't a standard lock-on anymore its a fire and forget. I'm guessing this just makes mag dumps with the striker more consistent? Maybe it makes hip firing at ground more effective? Not sure though, haven't used the striker since it changed its playstyle from being a better annhilator. Beef Hardcheese posted:Wait, so are they doing that thing again where they push out a patch with a bunch of gameplay changes and then all go home for a holiday weekend without waiting to see what bugs crop up? Yep. Maybe they'll dole out some OT for the inevitable saturday hotfix crew? Probably not... Labor Day weekend is kinda a big deal here in the states. Its like they've never heard of read-only friday. Edit: That said I didn't notice anything glaringly wrong on PTS the few times I've been on in the past week to test the new vehicle secondaries. So hopefully nothing major crops up? Nookovian-Red fucked around with this message at 15:34 on Sep 4, 2015 |

That's what I meant; in it's current state, as long as you're aiming close to the target the homing function should do the rest. A recoil of .2 shouldn't make much of a difference.

The Striker still only homes in on nearby airborne targets, right? Ground vehicles still require manual aim, so any buff to being able to dump a mag more accurately is welcome.

Mjolnir is good and fun and has a surprisingly long useful range. Aphelion is irrelevant unless they're using the wave which makes it really scary. I didn't get to bother the TR yet.

So what is the general consensus on the new weapons? I am very tempted to pick up the new launcher as I just love annoying vehicles/aircraft with random lock-on missiles from nowhere but I am on the fence about the new MBT secondaries. I am thinking I may pick up the Mjolnir for my max stealth Harasser. How much Daybreak cash are they wanting for the Swarm launcher anyway?

Wait the new AV weapons are 550 certs? That HAS to be a pricing error, better buy them quick before DBG hotfixes them to be 1000 certs.
