I don't get where people are getting the idea the game is ghostcap central. I was playing two nights ago at 2am EST and there were dozens of 24-48 fights and at least one 48 vs 48 going on.

Epic High Five posted:They've done this like 6 times already. Unless it's getting 50 rounds it's going to be total garbage compared to the Kobalt To be fair, a lot of guns are garbage compared to the Kobalt. It really is amazing how few people use that thing when it's probably the best anti-infantry vehicle weapon that isn't the PPA.

Hossin really does need some optimizing though. I tried actually playing on non-hossin last night and it was almost like playing after the PU again.

Gonkish posted:I may be in the minority here, but I really don't want them to change tanks to a three person crew like they were in PS1. I like being able to drive the thing AND shoot the gun. If I was just a driver I'd be bored as gently caress. I'm kinda glad the Magrider is holding that back. I think it would be OK if they kept the lightning as-is, but the MBTs were made more powerful (and expensive) with the driver/gunner/gunner changes. Especially if it meant the main gunner got a coaxial as well

Nakar posted:Y'know what, Emerald TR, is it too much to ask that you not jump right in front of my firing line to try and fail to steal all my kills? Or failing that, at least don't loving suck at it? If I've created a doorway of death for NC rushing past you're helping nothing walking directly in front of me to stare slack-jawed at all the NC that get past. At least they'll kill you instead of me, but gently caress you and your greed, only my greed is valid because I'm actually competent at this game. I've noticed this too when we have our TR nights. They seriously love walking in front of friendly guns that are already firing. Literally the first time I ever got weapons locked was during a TR night and I've been playing since loving beta.

vigorous sodomy posted:what in the gently caress. This was with some beta era pounder where they were like 4 shot bulldogs only max arms. You need to score two direct hits per arm to kill 1 infantry. Yeah that's really not that hard to do. Comets need the same amount of hits, except they only have 2 rounds per mag

I'm having stutter issues when I load into a new area i.e. when I redeploy or fly across the continent, especially if the area is heavily populated. Is an SSD or doubling my ram (currently 4GB) the best remedy for this?

Did they really think the veterans of this game wouldn't farm a bunch of easy kills made with lots of advertising? Their mistake was picking Emerald TR, which has gotten a lot better since the merger, but are still well below VS and NC in terms of organization and especially leadership. Moreso at the time they chose to play at. Away all Goats fucked around with this message at 07:06 on Jul 27, 2014 |

The Orion's only downside is really the 50 round mag. If you aren't winning every 1v1 with it you're doing something wrong.

MAX resource change is dumb, just get rid of the ability to revive them already. Hell, make them explode with the force of an AV grenade when they die so people are encouraged to suicide rush with them (stealth buff to NC). Also make the explosions affect teammates so you can wipe MAX nests even easier

I'm like 500 kills away.

In an alternate universe SOE never nerfed anything and every fight was just ZOE maxes rampaging unchecked inside structures while Striker/Fractures ruled the hillside. Overhead, Airhammer equipped reavers keep the skies blue and yellow. Also endless screaming freedom rockets as the NC use phoenixes to one-shot every infantry within 300m.

Or when/how/if you should engage or just get to cover. This game is like 30% actually being able to put bullets in people, the rest is knowing how to do it.

Trouvaille posted:The spiker is like the phaseshift; it's great if you play with it and not against it. Which is to say, you alter your play style to fit it. It's not like other guns, it's not just 'higher accuracy or damage or less recoil'. It's a full-on change of approach. Our sidearm should normally be the weapon we swap to when we've been caught with our spandex down. You switch to it and finish off the guy with a shed of health left before he gets you. Spiker doesn't do that. It's not a quick swap - to weapon. It's a charge-up time on a weapon that should be instant fire. That's why people don't like it. The problem is that the retarded charge up ability completely fucks with the timing of your shots since it adds a slight delay between clicking the mouse and bullets coming out. AFAIK there is not a single other weapon in the game that does this.

WhiskeyJuvenile posted:Phaseshift? Lancer? I don't have the phaseshift, but the lancer can definitely be rapid fired without the delay between mouse click and the projectile being fired. The only weapon I can think of that did was the old Saron, when it used to one-shot infantry and reloaded after every one.

WHAT A GOOD DOG posted:For real though, which is the easiest faction to play? I only play NC and TR guns seem to be pretty much the best at killing me, of course I'm always within 15m as an LA. It's still TR. A lot of their (AV) poo poo got nerfed but from an infantry standpoint their guns are still great and have the most forgiving trait for newbies (Large mags)

Nakar posted:I love the moment between an ally running through you and getting stickied on the back and the explosion killing 5 allies. I just dash out of blast radius, turn around, and cringe (my character does the first two, there's no cringe emote in-game yet so I do that part IRL, this probably should happen though). Sometimes it works out when its that moment your ally decides to YOLO into a room full of enemy dudes, not knowing you stickied him in the back (accidentally of course).

How the heck does SOE decide what helmets are equivalent? NC and TR get awesome full-face helmets and VS get what is basically a redesigned default half-helmet.
