Whatever they did to 'fix' the mech blowing itself up with rockets, seems to have just made it worse? Now I just blow up with no turning involved.

Well that would probably be because they never claimed to have fixed it. Last I saw it was still listed as a known issue in the most recent patch notes.

If it’s good enough for No Man’s Sky vehicle cannons it’s surely good enough for super earth mechs, which one imagines are basically WW2-era American tanks (ie one step up from a guy in plate armor saying “tank tank tank”)

BitBasher posted:I use the ARC a lot and I can say that speed is not typical at all. Normally it's about 16 shots and not the 7 in that video. I have had it happen that fast, but only a vanishingly small percentage of the time. Maybe one out of 20 or less. It will definitely kill them though, and the fun part is that by the time it does everything around it is absolutely dead, you don't really have to worry about adds because the arcing murders everything around it by the time it dies. It's much worse if you're not solo, because a) you need the charger to be facing you the whole time so you can land headshots, and b) you need to not have teammates on the other side of it. You tend to not have either of those things when they're chasing your teammates around. I feel like it's reasonably consistent for me when there aren't teammates nearby, though. And you can dive around constantly like an idiot while firing which is a bonus. https://i.imgur.com/E3EtHj2.mp4

IMO: arc thrower should arc to more targets, but require full charge to fire with. this would nerf it against some heavy targets but hopefully keep it the same against light ones. or increase the skill ceiling by making the damage highly variable with charge level, so you need to charge all the way against heavy targets No idea what to do about no reloads and the impact of that.

BurntCornMuffin posted:I have fallen in love with the grenade launcher + ammo pack. It's such a good combo for sustained crowd control. I think I might pair it with a medical armor so I can incidentally stockpile more stims from my backpack when I resupply. I'm still deciding if I want to invest in Eagle (Airstrike/Rocket/500kg) or Orbital (Prec Strike/Rail gun) for anti heavy work. I am getting so used to this load out I don't know if I'm able to use anything else, adding ETA's for Chargers and cluster bombs for bases too. You become a demolition specialist. I just need to drill into my head the difference between the distance of killing the bug Vs the grenade bouncing back and killing me

They should make the plasma punisher have an unsafe mode like the railgun where it loads more shots out of the mag to do more damage and have a bigger splash radius; and at 80%+ it will close a hole.

Things I learned farming SC: Req and Super Credits are RNG at the seed level, so they will stay the same each run (+100 req, +10 SC) Medals will be some level of RNG and I am not sure if there are different levels but your seed will determine a Medal reward is at a POI but the amounts will differ (1-3 so far on this map)

Your "normal" feels like how it was pre-charger head HP nerf, or maybe now if you don't always hit the head. johnny park posted:The Arc seems strong but I don't like to use it because it's kinda boring This is the real Arc-T problem.

ninjewtsu posted:how do you guys deal with the autonom cannon towers? pinpoint accuracy from a mile away with an aoe is brutal to even try to approach, and once you're there stratagems are fairly unlikely to actually kill it. i know about the weakpoint in the back that takes 10+ railgun shots to kill, just getting it exposed is pretty difficult if you don't want to wait on your buddy to circle around the long way all the way to the other side of the base and bumble into a patrol on the way. and then it requires the aforementioned 10+ charged railgun hits. i saw a base spawn with 2 of them and trying to tackle that even with a coordinated team sounds like hell, is there something i'm missing? orbital railcannon is still the only reliable method for me when i'm pinned down, but if there are 2 towers then the cooldown is torture

I wish there was an option to bypass the returning to your own ship / flying to someone else's ship and instead just have a galactic map screen on the main menu for quicker lobby switching. Far too often I've joined lobbies where the players are just AFK in the bridge or purposefully loving about. So I've sat through the animation and loading to teleport to their ship, then when I choose to join a different lobby, I have to exit, go through the animations again, find another lobby in the galactic map, and then teleport again. It is tedious!

Two eats to the cooling fins on the back. It's better to do it coordinated with someone else because it'll start turning quickly and it's difficult to shoot, grab the next eat, aim and fire quickly enough so that you still hit the weak spot. Still, using that method you can kill one tower every minute or so technically. Curious if the laser cannon can do it in one go after the buff. I know it can be pretty good against those cooling weak points Galaga Galaxian posted:Lasers cannons refracting off charger armor looks similar to that, though with more blue spikes. Yeah that looks totally different from what we see in that video though. If anyone can find a ricochet, either from player or bot weapon that looks thick and blue like that I'd be grateful.

If you're in the dead zone and don't have anything else at hand you can also kill a cannon turret with the slugger shooting into its back vents. It's about as fast as the railgun.

The more I use the slugger, the more it feels like people making a big deal about "But it stagger locks robots!!!" is coping with the fact we only need the stagger against chainsaw bots and devastators due to robots constantly warping 5-10 feet up and down over rocks and fencing  For every satisfying long ranged perfect headshot with the slugger the moment they are dropped off, is a dozen more cases of "Sure wish I had the defender". Because 60 slugger ammo goes by real fast when every third shot has a robot zero shift out of the way. "I will take cover behind this rocky hilltop I am not allowed to climb while I reload-of course they can dead sprint up it instead of pathing around...." Good thing autopistol loving rules as the backup option of "Kill 2 or maybe even 3 chainsaw bots" when they pull that poo poo.

I dunno if it's the movement or lag or what, but it's just too inconsistent for it to be usable for me.
