Ok, so I've noticed that the Wiyrkomi Swarm Launchers do the exact same damage to targets as the IA Swarm Launcher, yet the IA variant costs nearly 3x as much.

And yeah the IA variant can lock on to two targets at the same time, but the damage is completely halved between the two targets.

So I propose that we either make IAs do double damage when splitting the swarms between two targets, or make the IA variant as cheap as the Wiyrkomis

i have an idea! how about we make swarms cost as much as my 2 mill tank and make the SP costs 10 mill to unlock it! its meant to supress. if you cant kill tanks in the ****** status that they are currently in, then you really are as crazy as you sound. sorry to break the news to you but swarms have been OP since the darks ages of the murder taxi.

You clearly weren't here for cromo tanks

And I have no problem killing tanks, it just that IA swarms aren't that cost effective

You clearly weren't specced into AV during Chromo.

Your right, I wasn't. But I am now.

Hey I have an Idea!

Why don't we stop bringing out 2 Million dollar tanks and just use cheap 400k tanks like me!

But seriously, don't bring out your most expensive crap in PUBs

Congratulations.

The reason Chromo tanks were considered OP was nothing to do with their actual effectiveness, but to do with their perceived effectiveness.

Even in their current nerfed state, you ain't killing a top-shelf Maddy with MLT swarms, unless you have two buddies.

Back then, we had top-shelf tanks, superior to what we have now, AND the benefit of negligible infantry AV. The only real threat was other tanks, in the end.

But instead of actually speccing into AV to kill us, infantry bitched and moaned, and the nerf-hammer gave us a double-tap.

Me wanting to make something cost effective has absolutely what to do with wether or not I'm a scrub?

SMH dude.

And since I know its coming yes I was around in Chromo, yes I speced into AV, and you are right even at a high level you would do **** all to a tank and he could park next to a CRU or objective and farm kills is he desired

Says AV was negligible back then
Blames guy for not spending SP into something that wouldnt work
Riiiiight

And since I know its coming yes I was around in Chromo, yes I speced into AV, and you are right even at a high level you would do **** all to a tank and he could park next to a CRU or objective and farm kills is he desired but now that being a tank means you are still mortal like the rest of us its time to cry about it for the past 6 months

My Chromosome era prof 5 FG says no.

In an Advanced suit, with advanced grenades, tanks were not ever sitting around farming a crew if I was around.

You either didn't really spec AV, or you are bad. Given the way you cry, betting on number 2.

DIdnt have a forge gun back then, just a swarm launcher with the same ****** tracking and the old delay made killing anything a real chore but thats why you stack damage mods with a kincat and cardiac regulator and chase them to the end of the earth

Oh speaking of bad, want me to bring up your posts crying about the assault rifle and how it kills you because you wander out into the open, but wait you are supposed to be the heavy thats really good and doesnt get killed so why would you whine about that
Hmm contradictions contradictions but please do enlighten me and while you are at it please link me to at least one post of mine saying that X is OP and needs a nerf

I thought it was pretty obvious that what I meant was that there were negligible quantities of infantry AV in Chromosome...

No?

My forge guns had no problems with most tanks at ADV; most tankers didn't have a clue how to deal with them. And the best ones... with my ADV forge assisting, the well-fit ones died anyway. Not like they could recall, so you just chased them until they died.

In future, I'll bold the concluding sentence of my post - the one that makes it pretty clear what I'm talking about.



Haha, I wish I'd gone that far in Chromo. Got my DAU and rocked out with that instead.
