I'm glad they are tracking such hot issues a WEAPON BALANCE and VEHICLE BALANCE. At they managed to single out the A-wing specifically. Now they just need to acknowledge Scan Pulse.

Scan pulse is easily the most powerful charged card in the game, to the point of trivializing every other option except very situational things like "I am on Sullust so I will take ion shot to pop this turret". e: if you haven't gotten anyone to show up on it then you can't be using it right. Somehow. Because it's really easy to use. Meme Poker Party fucked around with this message at 20:25 on Jan 17, 2016 |

Well acknowledging there's a problem is the first step It's a pretty small step But OK do stuff dice

Dice took almost two months to even acknowledge a problem. Star Citizen could have done that in just two weeks!!! Now lets see how long some fixes take.

I finally got a mic going tonight, turns out that weird half ear bud that my ps4 came with was actually a mic all this time. And I unlocked the bowcaster and I can see how powerful it is. I haven't seen an annoying amount of the bowcaster + jet pack combo yet, though I'm not sure if its because its not being used by everyone, or that there is still alot of new players playing since Christmas.

The jumpack + bowcaster combo is probably a lot less prolific on consoles than it is PC. lol if you bought this game on PC in general.

You really can see it coming most of the time. It's about as threatening as an imploder. I just try to keep my jetpack available for the quick escape. If I don't have it charged, then I just go 'welp' and move on. Bowcaster isn't any more annoying than getting sniped by a pulse cannon or rockets or anything else, I don't get the whiny.

I'm so confused because I've played a shittonne on PC and never seen anyone successfully use Jumppack/Bowcaster without me killing the poo poo out of them. Also I love flying on the PC and going against people who think a game controller is better for it, I can turn on a dime and you can't, good game.

BH3 is 10+ kills with bowcasting on PC, with precious little people can do about it. Even smarter is waiting for a refresh cards power up, so even the personal shield guys cant stop the streak.

I'm one of those said controller people. I never could get comfortable flying with the mouse. It's so much smoother with a controller. You can't turn as tightly but you can strafe ground targets like nobody's business and dogfighting is generally pointless in this game anyways because of the vast differences in fighter strength. Even with your tighter turning I'll probably survive long enough in an A-Wing or Speeder so that you'll die or take hits chasing me around. And if I'm in a Tie even if I was using a mouse to fly you'd still beat me almost every time in a Rebel fighter because they're better. So generally I avoid trying to get into dogfights unless I'm getting the drop on somebody. I'd rather spend time racking up kills strafing infantry and dogfighting only if I'm in a Rebel fighter or if I have several Ties around to help me if I'm empire. As for the Bowcaster I like jump casting but I get almost even more mileage out of it by using it in tight corridors with scan pulse. Wait until you see three dudes coming and unleash it and there's nothing people can do.

What advantage does a controller grant on air->ground?

man I was hoping that was new content, they're just getting around to fixing day 1 bugs now? God loving damnit EA. This game is fun but it's fallen way behind R6 for me simply because the map pool is way too drat shallow and the lack of voice coms pisses me off a real lot.

Yorkshire Tea posted:What advantage does a controller grant on air->ground? For me at least it's a lot smoother and easier to line up my shots. I found the mouse very herky jerky for flying. I could turn quicker but I could never find a satisfactory sensitivity with it. With the controller I find it near effortless to line up strafing runs. That could just be me being used to it, of course. I flew with the mouse for beta but switched to a controller almost immediately once the game came out and I immediately liked it better and did a lot better with it. Not saying it's better, but for me at least it is. I started dominating in fighters almost instantly when I went from mouse to controller. I wish I was good at mouse flying though because like you say it's probably better overall due to it being superior for dogfighting.

So long as you fly erratically and don't just rely on turn fighting, the controller isn't half bad.

Spanish Manlove posted:So long as you fly erratically and don't just rely on turn fighting, the controller isn't half bad. Yeah since I can't out turn the mouse fliers I try to rely on altitude and specials to compensate. If I'm in a Tie I pop speed burst and climb as high as possible while changing direction slightly. If they're still on me when I do that, I dive back down and then hit loop a second or two later. If they're still on me after *that* I'm hosed, but I tend to lose a lot of people doing that. If I'm in a Rebel Fighter shields and their general superiority tends to be enough. I occasionally get dominated facing really good Rebel Air but well who doesn't

Anyone have XIM4 setup with PS4 for this? I'd probably still fly with the controller if that makes a difference.

Hey hi. I figured out the hand thing. You can't skip or turn off their tutorials, or things will go really buggy. A few button presses of 'I get it' later and things seem to be behaving.

I think the season pass content will come out way too late in this game's life. How many people will be still playing it in March with zero new content in between?

I was hoping on season pass content coming in January... I am lvl 47 now and barely play. But two more evenings of WA and I will be 50. Then I have nothing to look forward to any more.

I think there is no official date for the first season pass dlc set but that's what people have been saying based on Battlefield 4's release schedule. I just don't think this game can really live for 2 more months with no extra content (that will halve the playerbase anyhow but hey). People will just move on at that point.

Either they need to fix matchmaking or not that many people are playing any more (or both) on PC because every time I try to play now it takes me a while to find a match whereas just a few months ago it was near instantaneous.
