Orv posted:$32 deal Where is this? $30 is about the most I'll drop for access to this game, but even then I'm on the fence. The ork sprint is so loving dumb and doesn't look good and proper orky. Like, there are dumb reasons to be upset about the lore, but holy gently caress get the animations for the most expressive faction right. Plus Deathwing might be good.

Played as Orks, got crushed 4 rounds against Eldar. Made a space marine to try the PvE, and a tyranid fell through the map. The countdown timer to kill all enemies expired and we failed the round. This game should really look back at some things that Planetside did right - 1v1v1, spawn immunity, vehicle balance. There's a lot of important similarities that Sony figured out pretty drat well with the first Planetside, and this game would be better if they imitated it better.

There's a lot of important similarities that Sony figured out pretty drat well with the first Planetside, and this game would be better if they imitated it better. 1v1v1 sounds like a good idea for ensuring that one side never grows too dominant, but that assumption is based on the belief that people are good and logical and will rally against the biggest threat. What actually happens, and happened in both Planetsides, is that one of the losing factions attacks the other losing faction while the winner is also focused on them, to acquire power at minimal cost so that they stand a better chance of resisting the winner later on. Or both losers gently caress off and only fight each other while ignoring the winner. Sard fucked around with this message at 08:47 on Sep 26, 2016 |

Or both losers gently caress off and only fight each other while ignoring the winner. Planetside provided advantages and incentives to the losing side though - shorter spawn timers, more experience, etc. Eternal Crusade rewards the winning side with more currency to win harder with. At least 1v1v1 would allow a side that's getting crushed to get crushed by a different faction. The absurd balance problems on release with Eldar would be somewhat mitigated by allowing the losing side to die to Chaos instead. I think this game still needs another year or two in the oven, I refunded it and I probably would've refunded it at the $35 price point, too.

Three sided fights looked okay in Dark Age of Camelot, I think, while Planetside kind of drove home how impossible it is to balance.

At least they're not calling the game a MMO anymore like that lobby shooter with a persistent campaign map Heroes and Generals. Steam doesn't give a gently caress even with the banner saying MMOFPS in big letters on the banner.

Hm, I don't want to seem like I'm shutting the game down purely though. I do think the classes are good and distinct. I think the advancement is fun and designing a character a certain direction is a lot of fun. Also, some war gear does show up on your character. For instance, I had gotten an amulet for my sorcerer and it showed up which is cool.

I cant seem to figure whats better when I always use full auto fire unless I'm using the plasma cannon, which you should always charge for maximum tears. Lately I've been playing as Ork and driving in a war truck around getting roadkills while my team spawns on me.

No. But the cheapest loot crates first. The way it works is the loot crates all have their own special pool of items it picks from. It won't ever give you the same item twice and eventually it will say that you already own all the items of a certain loot box. There is also some overlap between the loot box pools, which means you REALLY want to start with the cheapest first. Also, don't delete any items. I was able to complete the 1k and 5k boxes for eldar. There's about 20ish things to get in the 1k boxes and one of them is a green reaper launcher. So if you plan on playing dark reaper you can save your point by not buying a reaper launcher so soon.

I think I like the smart bolt pistol more than the plasma pistol which sounds outrageous but with the lagginess the s.pistol really helps me soften a target before I finish them off with the janky melee.

Honestly, I don't even like the smart pistols. It's weird and I can aim just fine without it tyvm. Also the do less damage? Can you imagine some people poo poo their pants over these? Then again I play as elder and those pistols are very much not accurate.

the 30k req boxes get you poo poo like unique weapons with unique stats, I saw a space marine using a named Stalker Bolter and got a mastercrafted bolter from a 12k box.

Hihohe posted:Im just sad theres no iron jaw appearance for orks There is, it's in the lower left of the advancement tree.  Costs a shitload of points though. I think 400 for normal jaw and 600 for "only veteran units should be using it" version. I think they need to make the normal version less expensive even if they have to change the stats a bit since nobody will want to be seen without a Gob. Hihohe posted:Im wondering if theyll add heavy classes sometime in the future. Terminators and their other faction equivalents are actually the first "every three months mini-expansion", they're coming in december. Also unrelated, but turns out Ork mastercrafted/dead shiny (more expensive versions of weapons that are a bit better) weapons are loving gold.  They're not as shiny as the gold Space Marine fist, but they're significantly shinier than default ork weapons.

I've also seen a rendered jetbike that they've made, so it looks like bikes/jetbikes are on the list of things to add. If they add shining spears I would literally do nothing else ever.

Right click on the guy, get the red circle. Certain ranged weapons also have auto-aim (e.g. ork toxin pistol, "smart" weapons).

Don't shoot your gun with the lock on. I've noticed if you just hold fire the kick back will back you shoot way over their heads with the auto lock.

Rolled Eldar to see how they are compared to LSM, loving hell are they easy, bonus points tell the team that Eldar Need a nerf after the match, especially when you top the scoreboard and watch them lose their minds.
