If you don't force your team mates to jump off the landing pad into a floating galaxy because you're worried about tank mines, I don't know what to tell you. And you get to laugh at the people who miss and plummet to their deaths.

There are nights where the majority of my kills are with claymores and tank mines and if I could play claymore primary, I would. I don't get any rage tells though, just "Oh, you again  " ones

I always wanted to fly as a valk with 2 engineers and drop tank mines and prox mines at bio labs, with luck you'll get the same guy twice.

I would say we need a more standard bomber class, as in a Liberator with no ordinance guidance ability, no hover, and a 360 ball turret. Carpet bombing would be nice, though it would have to cost just about your entire nanite stock and have only enough for one drop before resupply. That, or bombs would have individual nanite costs per resupply. It would give ESFs something better to do than snipe spawns, at least.

Is there a generally accepted sweet spot for mouse sensitivity? I'm sitting at around 0.180 and going much lower than that makes it too hard to follow moving targets.

Depends a lot on personal preferences but lower (relatively) is generally considered better. What is your mouse dpi, without that theres no way to know how sensitive that actually is. For reference I'm at 400dpi and .88 hipfire and ads in-game, which gives me a roughly 70cm hipfire and 140cm ADS distance. This is stupidly low.

Get a mouse with on the fly DPS shift. Fast look speeds and quick easy drops for combat. The mouse (Logitech G502) I have has a button really close to the thumb that lets you change to a preset as long as your holding it.

I only use mouse sensitivity buttons for base turrets, for some reason they are way slower than every other "vehicle" by default.

More often than not I don't use it. I like it when I drive and can spin the turret real fast or look around, also good for not dragging my arm around the desk when in menus. I pretty much only push the button when have to get out and fight. It's literally one increment (50 dpi) above the setting I use to shoot mans on the regular. Setting the DPI made more difference than any amount of tweaking the in game options.

"Hey the Orion is the clear favorite between the three close range LMGs that are the only guns good players use on the only class they play, I think we need to make the Orion more accurate and the MSW-R and Anchor less accurate" Yeah I know everybody will say the MSW-R and Anchor are way better but they don't actually use those I guess everybody gets to see what a huge red herring 0.75x was, or at least has been since the netcode was improved. Maybe this will make for some fun reddit tears at least edit - LSW is now a VS-style GD-22S, which is to say it has a slightly worse reload and slightly worse dps Epic High Five fucked around with this message at 08:39 on Oct 29, 2015 |

It literally doesn't matter because the EM1/Polaris/Rhino are the new meta with 143 @ 20m.Jabarto posted:I don't have a mouse that can adjust dpi, is that something that makes a big difference? That seems like a pretty normal sensitivity. Whats the fixed dpi?

I have like 200 more kills to aurax the SVA-GG and then I'm going back to the now more accurate Rambo Flare that I enjoyed a 30% HSR on before the buff.

The only thing worse about the MSW-R now is the recoil pattern (Which admittedly is still pretty important) and the Standing Accuracy (Which is not) I'm gonna be interested to see what the Orion change does to its overall stats, especially in the upper quarters. I'm going to be surprised if "It's basically just an MSW-R now" is really the buff everyone thinks it is. Fans fucked around with this message at 20:36 on Oct 29, 2015 |

Yeah, this victory points thing needs to go. It's only possible to get enough points through ghostcapping. Any continent (Indar) that sees regular combat (Indar), isn't going to budge (gently caress Indar).
