CelticPredator posted:The spear not working has to be canon bit about super earth weapons being complete rear end "Why is the railgun nerfed" - because the enemies of super earth realized that most of their casualties came from that weapon, and adapted to better protect against it. All the in-game justification needed, really.

That's the most damage a spear has ever done.

As a card-carrying Spear Enjoyer I'm pretty sure the issue with cannon towers is that the "tower" is part of the terrain, not the entity, so if you're too far below the tower or too close to the base it obscures the aim point on the turret and isn't seen as a valid target. I'm also 99% sure the "mark your target" thing is placebo effect. The Blitzer doesn't arc the way the arc thrower or tower does. It just hits multiple targets to begin with.

ponzicar posted:I wonder if there's some sort of platform specific or host/client bug with the Spear. Because I have listened to the advice of Spear lovers and it still fails inexplicably. Just zero acknowledgements of any possible targets despite having a valid one in clear view at a range it has happily worked at before. This is where I am right now too. It's a lousy weapon up close but it's great for disposing of turrets and fabricators, so if my goal is to do a ton of that in a short time, the Spear is a good tool.

Lobok posted:I don't know what it should do, but some kind of stratagem that required the full team to equip and then call in together would be so drat bro-tastic. The team's Super Destroyers hang out together so maybe a combined laser blast a la the Death Star, or a kind of vehicle/equipment that is modular and can be improved as players call in other pieces to combine. You should be able to combine beams with the Laser Cannon like in Magicka for a more powerful beam

At least until we get the APC/Jeep, stamina stratagem is the single best one anyone can take. Even then, probably going to find your jeeps and APCs get blown up easily.

The strategem I want to see is “Call Democracy Officer” where you report a teammate as a traitor and the endless barrage starts coming down around them, smiting your enemies.

When you get the traitor bombardment you can type in a very long stratagem to call up the ship and apologize, and if you can survive long enough to do it they'll halt the bombardment.

I've never survived even being touched by a hulk flamethrower. I've just been treating it as an instant kill to be avoided.

I've repeatedly survived it - you just have to dive and then stim as soon as the big fella gets into flambé range (and pray you or someone else has an orbital railgun ready).

^^^ I'm fairly certain the flamethrower has some kind of dropoff as well. The closer you are to the flamethrower arm when you get caught in the flame, the quicker you die.

I honestly think the flamer on the hulk is fine right now though? I much prefer it to have a flamer and chainsaw thingy, instead of the crazy loving autocannon missile spec or whatever it is.

I feel like it has to be multiple hits of flame plume before the dot damage even really has a chance to tick away. There have definitely been times where I got tagged and had time to dive and be fine, feels pretty much the same as walking over some fire on the ground and catching flame. In these instances you can dive and take very little damage, sometimes none at all! And I've even been surprised by not taking any damage from hulk flames when I was sure I got completely engulfed, so it might just be disjointed hit boxes. Most of the time though my experience is right in line with that video. I'll go from full health and sprinting away to completely dead before I have the reaction time to look down at my health and see how fast it chips away. I've even been tagged and died instantly while in the air in the middle of a dive. So I'd bet their flame throwers act exactly like ours, there is both direct and over time damage. I wouldn't be surprised at all if proximity played a part, I don't have any recording but I suspect the times where it looked like I should have caught fire but didn't where times when I was at the limit of their range.
