At the very least it should be refilled by ammo drops instead of only supply packs.

They should just replace it, make it into a service bot. I would kill for something that picks up samples in the area, ammo boxes, can open the vault door with you for solo players, stuff like that

I love the auto cannon Powerful, reaches far, accurate, plugs up holes However it needs a backpack full of ammo to be awesome Is there a support weapon that’s similarly as good but also viable without a backpack, so that I can use a shield generator?

Steve Yun posted:I love the auto cannon Laser cannon is good at all the same targets except fabs/holes. It's better at hitting small targets/perfectly accurate in general but worse if you miss the weak point because it's base DPS is a little low. It also starts things on fire sometimes which is fun

I want some sort of ping that will mark samples within a certain radius. I would even give up a stratagem and/or backpack slot for it as long as I wasn’t playing bleeding edge difficulties.

jokes posted:I think it is absolutely absurd that some guns don't have a third-person scope. Eh, I agree but also I kinda get it for the AMR. There's video game precedent for true sniper rifles to not have crosshairs. So I guess it doesn't bother me too much. I'm VERY glad they added one for the HMG though

Zorak of Michigan posted:AMR + grenade pistol make a nice pairing if you pick a primary that gets you out of short-range jams. I played a bunch of bot 7s last night and I really like the AMR with the plasma Punisher and the Senator to round it out. Primary gives you great AOE that staggers devastators and smashes bot drops, the AMR is great for hitting weak spots when you've got the range, and then rarely you'll whip out the pistol if something is right in your face, but usually it's just as good to run a couple steps and plasma them to death.

Honestly I don't need two guard dogs that kill in different ways. Now if one could keep enemies at bay, like with something that staggered or stunned, then I'd be interested.

I'm VERY glad they added one for the HMG though usually only for pvp games where the sniper has perfect accuracy always and is a 1 shot kill. Absolutely not the case in HD2 and even if it was who cares lol Lobok posted:Honestly I don't need two guard dogs that kill in different ways. Now if one could keep enemies at bay, like with something that staggered or stunned, then I'd be interested. Making it a concussive liberator would be interesting too the biggest thing for me with it is that it needs to refill on normal ammo packs and have more ammo in general

Like when you’re doing a lap around a destroyed base looking for the right distance/angle/line-of-sight for the icons to pop up, it’d be nice to send out a pulse around yourself that marked interactive objects. Basically I think every game should have something like the “AI Scan” button in Halo Infinite.

They had a UAV Recon Drone Stratagem in the first game that took a Stratagem slot and showed the location of all enemies and all samples on the map. Very handy stuff and I wish they would bring it back.

Basically I think every game should have something like the “AI Scan” button in Halo Infinite. I agree. There have been times I've run through some specific POI configurations and been like "wtf where are the samples" and its just that the pickup icons never activated despite me running right by multiple times or the samples being slightly obscured. usually with rare samples where the color of the sample blends in with the rock background so I missed the visual cue. Or POIs that have random common sample wedged in somewhere weird. Another big peeve is "lore interact" override pickup sample/ammo/whatever - I do not care about this grave stone, please let me grab this sample

There's one POI where three barrels block a sample and you end up doing the supply-climb instead of grabbing it. Luckily the quasar can fix this bullshit.

I basically use it on cooldown against bots, bugs, patrols, bases, holes, eggs, heavies, elites, Factory Striders, towers, tanks. It does everything. Can’t pop bunkers or eyes of Sauron though. Those stump me.

I clear the diamond so my teammates don't see it and run to the POI.

I've had three Striders drop on extract on a helldive 9. The way we dealt with that was pretty straightforward - a couple of orbital lasers, a couple of orbital precision strikes, at least three eagle airstrikes, two 500kgs, two quasars and an autocannon. Yes, we got the samples out. johnny park posted:Sometimes I think Eagle Airstrike is the most OP thing in the game lol. It's SO good. I feel naked when I don't have it Stratagem jammers and anti-air emplacements are first priority targets, right up there with killing a stalker nest and even more important than main objectives, because of how good Eagle Airstrikes are.
