-Mountain railgunner:

"I'm forced to sit on a mountain in my redline because my tank is crap and CCP refuses to buff it"

Well, you're the worst hypocrite ever, you have no problems killing other tankers working their big metal asses hard to help their team, going into the battlefield and living on the edge every single match.

Those people are vehicle operators like you, with the same problems, but unlike you they have the guts to bring their crap to the objective and they keep doing their job, no matter how much CCP nerfs their vehicles! And their efforts get randomly and suddenly annihilated (along their vehicles) by your particle cannon.

I'm ashamed to share the same category (Tanker) with you. You don't deserved to be called "Tanker", because as soon as you quit driving and supporting you stop being a "Tanker". The appropriate name for you is something that will have me banned for writing it on the forums.

-Tower Forgegunner:

"I have it hard, good tankers can survive to my Ishukone forge gun if they run away. And some dropsuits can survive up to 3 blast damage!"

You have a portable railgun cannon with damage mods and proficiency, 1,875 second charge time, 4 clip size, 2300 raw damage per shot with 2 dmg mods and proficiency (actually outdamages a prototype railgun!!!), no sway, no projectile fall off, no damage fall off...

...and you whine about it!

...AND YOU'RE ON A FRIGGIN' TOWER!!!

Infantry can't shoot back, tanks can't shoot back, not only because of the glitched render distance, but because the turret can't tilt that much. You have total control of the map, spamming your crazy weapon like a God's finger from above, killing anything, from infantry to vehicles and installations... and in total safety!
The only way to kill you is to snipe you off (which is almost impossible as long as you can take cover and you can laugh to the sniper and ignore him unless he has a Thale) or flying a dropship to your place, which can be destroyed in no time by yourself. Perfect example of this situation in this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sktAvbnHvE4&feature=c4-overview&list=UUJe8E36GLsS5__3B3SYC0fw

And some of you justify yourselves because you're "Heavies" and heavy suits are underpowered and need all the help they can get!
More hypocrites, you should be ashamed of yourselves, hiding behind your HMG "brothers" or even a ground Forge gunner, nothing to do with your kind.

-Both of you redline railsnipers and camping forgegunners pretend to be enemies, instead you should shake your hands one each other for being the worst (insert correct word here) in this game's history.

This game would be immensely better without both of you, you're ruining other people's in-game experience and infesting the forums at the same time.

CCP won't do anything to stop you, so at least STFU on the forums, because you're ridiculous and rage-inducing for how pathetic you are.

There's a lot of QQ here. But it's not your typical QQ, and it's really rather a QQ about others' QQ.

So +1

whoa whoa whoa hold on there, us heavies complaining about our FG? since when?

i've seen FG nerf threads but a thread about FG being UP??

i want what you're smoking there lol

I am a forge gunner.

Towers are overpowered

Stay away from my forge gun

(fyi i dont towere snipe)

Forge Gun buff requests are probably trolling threads and I saw just one of them time ago.

Forge Gunners frequently ask for Tank nerfs. Some of them actually do whine about their FG not being able to solo a tank, which is absolutely false.

While I kind of share the same sentiment... aren't snipers in the same category? It's a playstyle which takes very little risk for decent rewards, while also being incredibly boring to play.

Most people would probably rather watch paint dry than sit in the redline or on top of a tower all day, but then there are those who really can't get fun out of the game doing anything that requires a modicum of spatial awareness.

Well... They won't ever get my respect, but the game designer in me also wants to say that it's not a bad idea to give those people something fun to do. While it's frustrating to deal with, in turn we "others" get to enjoy entertaining threads like this, sharing our disdain in solidarity.

If one headshot with a Charge sniper (dedicated sniper with proficiency and damage mods) is not enough to OHK a heavy sniper, 2 kaalakiota headshots (when the enemy is not moving you can easily land 2 headhots with a tac sniper) sure can.

Snipers can be really annoying, but nothing prevents me from flying my dropship to them or just snipe them back.

redline rail tanks cant see much... soooo they arnt particularly dealy to anything besides tanks who wander around like they are immune to gunfire... wich means if the railtank diddnt get them soemthing else would of.


soooo take mountain rail tanks off this list of gripes?

I understand your point of view, but I wouldn't put snipers in the same category.

Snipers can only kill infantry, though, and they are easy to snipe back once you spot them. They can't move while aiming and, unless they're sniping in a heavy suit, one single headshot is more than enough to kill a proto sniper with armor plates.

SO let me get this straight, If I rail an enemy tank that is working hard to help his team in closer combat, this is me saying I have a weak tank, but I'll cheap shot other tanks, OR is this a tank with a powerful long range weapon using range, to supress and stop other tanks from killing my team?

CCP like people using the height advantages on this game, and a forge gunner a top a tower is not invincible, he is a sniper target, if your teams snipers cant supress or kill him, to bad, better luck next time.

Also rail tanks can shoot forgers off them towers, its a matter of knowing how.

So to generalize the OP, anything that uses range or tactical postioning should be ashamed of themselves.
By the same whacked out logic:
AR's you should be ashamed of using automatic weapons, try being a man and pull the trigger every shot.
Mass drivers, quit relying on explosions your cowards
Snipers, how about you come into submachine gun range.
Knova Knifers, try that from 50m
Tankers, how about you get out and try fight me.
Grenades, how about you don't explode.

etc etc etc

hahahahah "tactical"! You're actually defending such a broken mechanic as redline sniping! I've no arguments against such awesomeness, you win.

When did I whine about anything of those things? Your "generalization" is the most stupid I've ever seen.

man i hate those snipers who carry the kaalakiota SR. but then i just switch to my heavy sniper and find those guys, i once hunted down a sniper so many times in one game that he switch back to militia SR after losing too many of his officer weapon

Was he a Thaler?

omg he lost several Thales in the same match?

As is the how dare you use your long range weapons at long range rant on post#1

I love taking someones Thales, few minutes later you'll see their name on kill feed with an ADV SR, funny stuff.

As someone who likes to think he can read I'd say the post was not about the distance but more so the placement and cowardly behavior.

lol the only time I killed a Thaler he left the match. Even funnier.
