What do you guys think of this? i ask this because i said something about a guy named White Mortadela's constant officer stomping and he seemed to get offended by it.
don't get me wrong. i'm all for a good protostomp. i get protostomped in most of the matches i play. that's how you get better at the game, but in my opinion officer weapons in pubs takes it just a little too far. its not like it's the end o the world if it happens, but i just dont see the point in doing it ALL THE TIME. what does that prove? if i had officer nova knives or shotguns i would definitely use every now and then, since i cant play PC but by no means would i use it all the time.
i heard that in PC there is a ton of officer weapons, so it's reasonable to use them there, and like i said, in pubs SOMETIMES, but perpetually?

LOL Officer weapons are used equally everywhere not just alot in pc and a few in pubs. It is actually pretty even throught out the game modes.

If they want to risk very expensive weapons let them. Everyone enjoys a target.

Pubs are unpredictable enough to cause people to lose their officer weapons. I reckon it's mainly those who don't truly understand the value of those items come the p2p market that use them in pubs and risk losing them over nothing.
And a biscuit with valor is one that does not crumble when bitten into.

In PC and Tourneys, pretty much everyone uses them.
The real question is: Why do people use Enforcers in pubs? I have been in 2 pub matches where someone lost an Enforcer as quickly as some noob (or me XD) would lose a Soma or Sica.....

I haven't acutally seen any in pubs since Chromo, seems silly to me.

Officer weapons in PUB's share the wealth... Kill them and get a chance of salvage for everyone in the game..
If you want officer weapon's used in PC's and tournament's then they will always be this weapon held by a select few..
The only way to increase officer weapon numbers and share them throughout the game is to pull them out in pub's and have people recognize it and hunt yah down. |

It's funny. I was using Proto that entire match, and we lost.
But we get into a FW match against Subdreddit, I use Advanced and Standard like I always do, and we end up winning (in MCC ticks anyway. It's one of the closest matches I've ever had :D). And plus I ended up getting payed 500k ISK :D

Redline sniping is a terrible, terrible mechanic that fails to maintain any semblance of risk/reward balance. I specced into sniping just for the Thale's, and unfortunately it was entirely worth it. I feel bad after using it sometimes. I have only lost two, one to another Thale's and another to complete stupidity. The one I'm on now has well over a hundred kills and I can count the shots I've taken back on one hand.

I haven't used one yet. I have the skills for 3 or 4 of them, just haven't felt like they would significantly improve my chances, compared to their value on the market - whenever that materializes.

The Thale's is just the most god-like weapon I've used in this game. Screw the Balac's, even my favourite Imperial Scrambler Rifle doesn't come close.
I mean, you can OHKO almost anything if you aim correctly. I've only had a couple of heavies survive more than one shot and none have survived two.
And thanks to that amazing scope you can do it from deeeeeep in the redline. I have actually single-handedly held multiple objectives from the redline because for some moronic reason I can actually see the hack points for them. There is nothing that anyone can do to stop a sniper with a direct line of sight on the objective when he's in the redline except countersnipe, which is remarkably difficult because finding snipers is actually hard to do.

If you see someone using an officer weapon just hunt them down. If they suck you won't be diverted from the objectives long, and if they don't then killing them is likely worth the effort for the pressure it takes off the team. More over once they die with the weapon they are less likely to spawn with a new one, and if they do just kill them again.
If blood and sweat don't teach them perhaps time will

(Raises hand) guilty. I love using my Thale and I will not stop until I have lost everyone of them. My average is 300 kills for 1 Thale lose. I am near 21K kills and have a lot more Thales. Using a Thales is not a big deal, it is a sniper rifle and if CCP designed there sniper rifles like this one, I would not use it. It has better range and stopping power. Balac's are more of a threat than a Thale. I can only shoot one at a time. I have seen a Balac user decimate a whole squad.

I highly disagree. A Thale will last at least 5x longer than an equaled player with a Balac. One is on the front line the other -100m behind the redline.
