It's too bad Valkyries are shit, they're a lot of fun
>>128617507
Because MAX's can go inside biolabs, and even poverty MAX's can be effective.
An effective AV harasser requires a few thousand certs investment, and a good AI one, even more. You also generally require an offsider for effective usage.
Treat time!
being like this without camo or hat on flash reminds me of when i started playing
>>128621929
What kind of treat is that?

I've never heard of that before. Where do you get it? Is it supposed to be healthy or something?
>>128621775
>a good AI harasser requires more than a few thousand certs investment to be effective
This isn't true, at least for the TR.
I dropped 550 certs on the marauder-H and was instantly racking up dozens of kills, on an otherwise stock harasser. Consistent killstreaks wherever I went.
Adding thermals and more reserve ammo later were just quality of life improvements, same as adding fire suppression and stealth ranks.
>>128622572
Dunno man, my wife buys that shit, I do not question her selections.
>>128622843
hah, fair enough. I might see if there's any next time I go shopping, it seems interesting.
So abandoned ns offices got moved to fit more in with the lattice
Personally I don't know why they didn't just nuke that base, it's fucking pointless
any tips on what to do what you're playing A LOT worse than you normally do?
i was shit tonight
>>128623671
Whoops, forgot pic
>>128623724
Try an NC character and then come back to your faction thinking that at least you are not NC.
>>128623724
Take a break. Play something else. Read a book, get a cup of coffee, watch some videos, whatever.
If you're having a shit night, you'll only get pissed off and start playing even worse.
>>128623890
>wow it's fucking nothing
Now the spawn room can be shelled by not one but two pairs of AV turrets as well as the surrounding tanks!
Why the hell are people still able to do this? Its ridiculous.
>>128623724
Slash down, not across.
>>128621929
Qiu is a very pretty retriever. I said it before, I'm very jealous of your dog

Was really hoping for ANTS, but HA nerfs are quite nice
>>128624797
ANTs aren't done yet. They're close-ish, but not quite there yet.
>>128624184
Yeah, I don't know why Recursion is on Memerald either.
>>128622670
That's a shitterwagon you built.
A real TR approved farmwagon requires at least 12 rounds in the gun/thermals (the extra rounds are a very noticable improvement - 14 is ideal, but a huge cert sink), maxed out comp/prox (prox for low/med pop bases, comp for high - being able to stomach 3 rockets and still keep rolling is very useful), maxed out fire-sup (extremely good for the inevitable swarm of bullets you'll take, escaping death, and repping without getting out - this isn't quality of life - this is a requirement), and at least a rank or two in racer/rival for accel/reverse to get out of dodge. Stealth is the poor mans choice, and a bad one at that. Mineguard at least prevents you being 1-2 punched by heavies with AV grenades.
The level of effectiveness increases dramatically once you've gotten the comp armor / prox radar, and the others together make you far more effective.
I mean, I drove a poverty wagon for an outfitmate, much like you the one you speak of, the other day - it is absolutely awful compared to a certed out one.
They aren't quality of life improvements, they're requirements for getting to the best farms. Being able to weave in and out and stomach extra tank rounds to get to that foot zerg is something you cannot do in a vanilla harasser.
I think the thing here is, that your idea of effective is my idea of mediocrity. Once you've gotten used to a fully certed harasser, default ones are absolute shit in comparison. A MAX on the other hand, doesn't so much require this. A couple ranks of flak, and a 650 cert secondary AI gun, and you're set.
>ANTs will save the game guys!!!
>shooting rocks will save the game
lol
>>128625373
I don't think any realistically expects the first iteration of ANTs and construction to do shit for the game.
>>128625373
lol
>>128625497
it's the first impression that counts, anon. if a new feature doesn't immediately wow, then it's dead in the water and people checking it out will leave just as soon as they come
>>128624897
AC has a real hard on for recursion for some reason.
Flash grenades are fucking great now.
On a related note, did anyone on Coonery just get DC'd?
Basedburneess> higgles
I'm new and I reached br15 with TR. I enjoyed playing as TR, but I was thinking about switching to some other empire because people said they aren't really that good. Should I switch to some other empire? If I should, which one?
>>128627382
I love them too. They're so fucking good now. You can actually clear rooms with them. Feels operator as fuck to hurl a flash in and then go in directly afterwards.
I used to regret that I fully certed grenade bando on my LA. No longer.
>>128627743
what server are you on?
emeralds tr are shit, if you want to play tr come to connery.
if you play on one of the communist servers then i dont know, but the same concept applies. TR is not inherently bad, its the middle of the road as far as power goes, its not as underpowered as NC, but not as overpowered as VS. For whatever reason different servers have radically different play qualities on their different factions though. I cant figureout why this is, but it is.
>>128628491
I play on connery actually. The people there are really nice and I love it. I'll probably stay but I was just wondering because I wondered If investing in an empire that people look down is a bad choice.
really thinking about certing a mosquito
all i'd really buy are hellfire and then cert the vehicle itself
i have 2k certs saved up
why shouldnt i
>>128628491
>VS
>overpowered
HOLY SHIT AN UNIRONICAL SHITTR
IT'S BEEN LIKE 2 YEARS
JESUS FUCKING CHRIST
A SHITTR
WHAT THE FUCK
WHAT THE SHIT
>>128628843
Avoid NC. They are huge shitters on Connery. You'd do well to find a decent outfit to run with if you're sticking in TR. It can make your play experience much more fun. I wouldn't be playing if I didn't have a nice group of guys to run with. I hear foxhound has a very good community going in terms of actually doing effective ops, and being a nice group of guys. Honestly, I'd probably join them if I wasn't tied into my old outfit by a number of good pals I'd made there.
>>128628843

>>128629081
They win the most alerts, across all servers. This is a statistic that is above your shitty gunvsgun comparisons or anything specific, because it summarizes the strenghts of the entire faction. You can argue specific cases all you want, but the fact remains the most alerts are won by vs, followed by tr, and then nc. This is not the case on every server, on some things are different, this is a result to different server metas and playstyles, but it all averages out across all servers, to result in the true unbiased answer.
>>128629815
Not anymore, the alert tracker (before getting fucked) showed that TR and VS win the same amount of alerts these days.
>>128625061
I think you might have missed the context of the conversation, friend.
That "shitterwagon" as you put it, with just the 550 certs sunk on unlock the base marauder on an otherwise certless harasser, is plenty enough to GET LOTS OF KILLS AND BE EFFECTIVE.
I know this from experience. I ran with that for a solid month before doing any upgrading, and nowadays my TR harasser is of course completely maxed because why the fuck not?
I can now, just as I could with nothing but the weapon unlocked, hop in my solo marauder harasser, eyeball the map for the telltale signs of a sweet farm, drive up to any number of the good positions at most bases, and just spam key spots and switch positions when necessary and rack up a hundred kills and only a few or zero deaths from a single battle.
There's no "idea of effective/mediocrity" about it. Killstreaks that last for dozens of kills or more, that depend way more on map knowledge and situational awareness than any unlocks or upgrades on the vehicle itself beyond the anti-infantry weapon.
Obviously I have an even easier time of it with more upgrades, but even maxing everything did not radically change my capacity to obliterate infantry clusters all by myself.
Our playstyles may be very different, but this is my experience going it solo and I'm not even particularly skilled at the game. That's just how good the marauder is.
>>128630693
Not that guy, but a TR MAX requires zero certs to be effective for infantry farming. Pounder and a chain-gun are pretty well good on their own.
>want to be harasser hero
>cant rely on anyone but myself
;_;
>>128630948
Faction and server?
>>128630948
You can still become a jihad hero.
>>128630854
Every faction's certless max can do pretty okay in the right circumstances.
Hell, having one gun arm and one AV arm is actually an advantage against double-gun arm maxes, and can still blitz regular infantry and at least plink at heavy armor.
>>128630948
Faction/server?If you're tr or vs on connery & have a mic, I'd be happy to drive or gun for you.
>>128631104
I will instead just become a dedicated ammo sunderer. f-fuck yeah, logistics!
Cant shoot with out amunition soldier!
Ill max that out to make sure its MY ammo they are shooting, and not the level 1 ammo sunderers ammo
>>128631043
im 2shy to ever tell anyone here my name, and would probably drive off a cliff and embarrass myself if i tried to do anything
>>128631308
I don't want to know your name yet, just your faction and server.
What's with all the stalkers after this patch? I don't remember anything about cloaker getting touched in this patch.
They just sit there
At least this one fought back.Combining this with flash nades, I haven't had this much fun playing the game in a long time.
>>128631549
Former heavy salts need another crutch so they are moving on to cloakers.
>>128627382
Flash nades are amazing now, see some HA camping in the corner and being a dick? Just lob a nade and waste him. It's great.
The best part is, they have to pick between emp shield or clear vision so you know that the nades will almost always work.
>>128631824
Love the ub shotgun on my Eclipse. Makes me laugh so hard when I oneshot heavy shitters before they can get their shield up, I bet they shit their pants.
>>128632614
They're truly fun. I can't believe I haven't been hit by one yet, they're good enough to where I thought everyone would be hucking them everywhere now like EMPs.
>>128633227
People say the directive carbines suck, but for close-quarters FAST light assault action, they're great. I like playing LA really quick and close though, so that's probably why.
>>128623671
Well they nuked Broken Arch, East Canyon and Blackshard Mine.
>>128621929
I'm pretty jealous Mr. Welfhair your dog is a cutie.
>>128633227
Oneshotting people from even greater distances with a direct hit underbarrel grenade launcher is even better.
Oh the hackusations and tears that flow when biolab shitters see my carbine on their death screen as being the thing that oneshot them from 50m.
>>128633529
The new position would be okay if it wasn't actually a base, like that little 1 building hutch between Quartz and Indar Ex.
Leave it as a non-lattice stopping point between Mao and Howling and turn that whole area into a vehicle combat zone.
>>128627382
Fuck yeah, I can finally correctly use my tacticool "Breacher" LA loadout.
Still don't understand why flash grenades had to take a couple seconds before exploding though.
>>128633868
LA is extremelyfunwith the Flash changes.
Dunking on shitters that crutched on HA with my gay little fairy is so juicy, and with the shield nerf, all infantry classes are pretty much viable in HLIP now, barring engineers who shouldn't be anyway.
>>128633785
To break a zerg maybe?
If there's a huge one charging Mao they are required to make a stop and stay completely exposed in the middle of the plain.
>>128633454
I think the main problem with the directive weapons is inability to customise.
I think the TRAC-shot is probably a little bit better than the Eclipse because of the higher fire rate and soft point ammo which support carbines role as close range weapons better. Unlimited ammo and never having to reload are powerful benefits though and AD's is still accurate up to about 40m so the Eclipse is quite adaptable. Not really sure what the Fortuna is like.
I wouldn't really say that the directive weapons are bad, it's just that the specialised weapons do their job a bit better. I would have preferred it if you unlocked the Aurax camo as opposed to a weapon because I have little doubt that the main reason people use directive weapons is for the sexy camo/bragging rights.

>>128634163
Mao SE is pretty tough to ground zerg, what with Mao's vehicle spawn sitting up on a ridge that oversees the entire satellite.
If you can keep the shield gen up and camp on that ridge, you can hold out with massive pop disadvantage anyway, so having a stall base that basically serves as a dumping ground for HE from every single direction seems pretty silly.
>>128634480
Maybe they just want tobe nice to TR and let them have a nice farming ground?

>>128634701
I dunno, maybe.
I mean most of Indar is already a tanker's wet dream when it comes to farming.
DBG can be pretty retarded in general, but Xander's one of the few sort of competent devs they have left, so who knows what the hell's going on.
>>128634817
Well I like what's he's doing to the whole Hvar/Indar Comm/Indar Ex/Quartz Ridge area so I'm cautiously optimistic for this at least.
It takes one guy to do something good but it also takes one guy to ruin everything so there's that.

CALCULATED RISKS
I figured since I was flyman I could hug the roof and survive, I've done it before. You're barely outside the kill radius if you detonate a C4 thats on the ground when you do that.
In other news, UBSG declared funnest weapon in the game.
Know what's fucking hilarious to me, as an Emerald NC? Entire 96+ platoons of TR getting carried by 10 or so guys from Recursion. Tonight base after base after base with zergs that size were getting captured with credit going to a squad that size. We couldn't stop them, but every single fight they weren't at? TR got their faces stomped in, hard.
Recursion is a Conner NC outfit, yeah? How does it feel to have your entire primetime faction carried by an NC alt group?
>>128637093
>Recursion
>NC
>>128637140
Google showed them as an NC Connery outfit, but whatever.
>>128637252
They're a TR outfit
>>128637397
If they are on Connery, cool, I'll admit to being wrong. Either way, the main point is that they still carried the entire TR zerg tonight, which was hilarious. Every time they weren't at a fight, the TR lost.
>>128637628
thats how it goes with anyone
you have the fodder and the pushers who corral the nerds and win because they have enough meat between them and then enemy to where they can do the work
>>128637697
Yes, but as per usual much of the TR that wasn't them was shit talking about it. The same way Emerald VS do when DaPP members hide behind AC.
In my experience it usually isn't that blatant though, and tonight it was REALLY blatant. Like, holy crap blatant, to the point that without those guys around the TR couldn't even get within a hundred meters of a point, much less even think about capping it.
>>128637093
Emerald TR is the worst faction in the entire game.

The dawn of a new era.
>128642618
I already became a full time ledgehog, but not because of flash grenade. No point playing heavy when there are so many cloaker fags around and they can OHK through shield. Shitters finally got what they wanted. Now, have fun drowning in MAX and A2G spam when there is no one around to decimate them.

It was pretty neat
A vanguard eventually killed at after that fight and while i was following some tanks around to repair them.
Id advocate leaving sunderers around unlocked all over the place for this reason, but if i was a real newbie i probably would have just drove it off somewhere and wasted it.

As opposed to sitting in the spawn 300 meters away from the point getting spammed by HEAT rounds? At least that sunderer placement encourages braindead pubbies to actually do something other than sitting in an overpopulated base's spawn room leeching kill assist XP. Besides long tech lab fights are some of the best moments this terrible game has to offer.

Almost 50% of kills get a reaction, I imagine that's the natural butthurt generated when you get killed by someone bright yellow, wearing glowing yellow armor and using a bright pink gun. A cheeky V1 every now and then helps too.

anyone else getting improved performance after this patch?
I don't know what's going on but my framerate is vastly improved, the max isn't any higher but i'm not having nearly so much trouble maintaining it anymore. Much smoother, very nice.
The confusing thing is that the patchnotes don't mention anything about optimisation or such.
>>128649101
Well the disconnects appear to be gone
>>128653097
its probably because there are fewer players on yesterday and atm. Once you get into those 96+ fights I bet itll be just as shitty as before.
>>128653236
That does make sense but I'm a cobalt player who often plays very early in the morning, around 3-4am. You're lucky to find more than 100 people on the server at those times and framerate is certainly better right now than it was normally, even then.
>>128653396
>who often plays very early in the morning, around 3-4am
why
might as well play on memerald, you'll be a bit laggier but it'll be near-prime time
>>128653604
"Bit laggier" is an understatement. My ping to cobalt is usually around 80-90ms. emerald is in the 300ms range. That's unplayable bullshit unless you're actively exploiting it, which I'm not.
>>128653715
weird, i get ~70 ms to cobalt and ~140 ms to memerald.
>those HA nerfs
>not permanently removing infiltrators and nerfing RL AI damage or LMG accuracy instead
Welp, I guess the ride is finally over. It was fun while it lasted. Guess what class the HA mains are going to play now. Thank God Blade & Soul is coming out in a few days so I can still have a game to waste my life on. Have fun playing Sniperside 2. I'm outta here.
>>128654667
Exactly this.
HAs are/were bullshit, but I never whined about them. If HA gets a significant nerf, infil will be the next things the tryhards will main. I'm just waiting to see how much until the infil meta takes over.
>>128654667
Resist shield nerf is barely noticeable. And a good heavy will still out-duel any other class with any shield.
Heavy mains were heavy because it was the meta. And ill be glad to see them go if thats actually what they intend to do now.
>>128654961
Hopefully plenty
I need to hunt
>>128654984
>Resist shield nerf is barely noticeable.
Get a load of this shitter.
>>128655103
You won't be hunting anything, you'll be the hunted.
>>128655185
Um, no, I'll be an infiltrator that flanks other infiltrators, as I have always done
>>128655236
>being infilshit
You are part of the problem.
>>128654667
It will only affect a very small amount of people anyway. The average clueless i-win-button HA will keep playing HA because that's just the class they're attracted to, what with rocket launchers and big weapons and all that. The K/D-whoring tryhard shitters on the other hand might go infiltrator but for all I care that's just fewer bullets to kill them, even if the playstyle is gay as shit.
>>128655375
>The K/D-whoring tryhard shitters on the other hand might go infiltrator but for all I care that's just fewer bullets to kill them, even if the playstyle is gay as shit.

A competent bolt shit is practically immortal. Thank god the average bolter is retarded.
>>128655185
All these Prorion and Betelgay tears are delicious. Your playstyle a shit faggot.
>>128655362
What problem?
The darts? Are you afraid of my darts?
I'd be afraid of my darts, because I actually use them.

>>128655620

>>128655502
>A competent bolt shit is practically immortal
So is a competent SMG-babby, but in my experience even the worst EMP SMG babbies are less successful on average than medkid cugging HAs with decent positioning. It's all about versatility, infs have their areas of effectiveness defined a lot more clearly than a HA. A decent Godsaw can dominate at pmuch any range, whereas an inf needs to switch between guns to fill the same role.
>>128655918
We all know dedicated heavy mains have at least one VS alt with betelgeuse unlocked. Don't lie to me.
>>128656092
>implying I main heavy
>>128656216
Then why are you crying?
>>128656285
I'm not, I called you a shitter. I didn't say that the nerf was unwarranted, or that it got overnerfed.
I feel like I'm actually killing people as on-foot engineer
bizarre

My framerate was fine today.
>>128657610
I still get constant freezes.
>>128657610
There are weird spikes or freezes every once in a while now thats true but at least the ctd are gone. So its an improvement i guess.

Overall 3/10 Terrible update. A whole lot of "who gives a fuck" with some "oh god why?" and a couple specks of "oh its good they finally decided to do that."

Also, how many Emerald tr have joined recursion? Or have they not recruited?

I think arctorn have made some new ones that looks decent.
Truth be told I'm torn. MBT stuff is 3x the work for less money compared to say a harasser/sundy.
Kinda depends on what sum the next quarterly cheque will be. Cynical..maybe
>you will never watch another live stream of higby playing
>>128665667
don't worry about being cynical, that's just practicality.
These shits don't deserve hard work anyway.
Me though, I do. Make flash cosmetics. I need something that goes on the back which isn't a fucking glowing "Shoot me" ball or a babby-flag.
>>128665878
I made one of those racoon tails..or whatever animal it is. you know the fury strpy ones. Never submitted it though. maybe I should.
Also. Made this for funs after talking to Bill a while ago.
>>128665667
>I think arctorn have made some new ones that looks decent.
Unless by "new" you mean so new they aren't released yet, they're ugly.
Unrelated, but how much money do you make out of this? How much work is it? I'm genuinely curious, I was considering doing it myself when they launched playerstudio,but then decided against it because i am a professional procrastinator and wouldn't get a single hat done.
>>128666068
I think its stuff thats been submitted or on its way to be submitted.
The money I make varies.
My best quarter have been 17 500 dollars.
That was a perfect storm though. Next one I assume will land on 4-7k for a quarter.
It's a lot of work.
Helmets not so much anymore cause i*ve made so many (to the delight of ps2g :P)
A helmet can take anywhere between 20 and 40 hours.
The infantry armors I did, I've easily sunk 400+ hours into that.
>>128624184
lol, this screenshot was taken outside of that base, i spawned on that sundy

yes, but not until around march or april. I'm going to bum around in europe and asia for a bit before heading there.
I hope there aren't too many people playing light assault now
I don't want a bunch of shitters getting in my way at all the good LA spots
