The assaults are strong as ever
Automatic weapons with AA are dominating the battlefield more than explosives, even. (MD reign of terror was short lived)
The Gallente mediums have replaced the CA Logi as fotm suit.
Duvolle is the best gun by a lot. Heavies have even replaced their trusty HMG with it.
Heavies are making a come back and are actually scaring everyone except the duvolle-wielding brick tanked medium suits.
Since the scout scan buff and shotgun fix (big one), scouts have been a lot more common and are killing the heavies like they used to, but the Duvolle still literally 4-shots them.
Flux grenades are largely viewed as useless.
Tanks are almost never spawned in pubs, anymore, because everybody and their mother has some form of prototype av by now, so the whole idea of being an "AV specialist" is dead because there are no tanks left to kill, LAVs automatically explode, LLAVs still can't be killed, and dropships are usually piloted by newberries who can't make it off the ground.
I'm noticing a lot of new players sticking around for more than a day, now. This may be because of the new player experience improvements.
Matches are, on average, less one-sided as long as it isn't Wednesday or Thursday.
Optimism about 1.7 is pretty high. People are excited about the new content., as we've been begging for it for some time.
TAR is barely used anymore.
Breach AR seems to be making its highest level of popularity since the beta and the burst isn't be ignored, either.
Forge guns don't seem to be quite as annoying as they used to be, but good forgers still are just as effective.
Rendering still sucks.
Scotty still sucks.
All in all, if I had to rate this game in Chrome, I would've said 7.2/10. In 1.0, it was 4.0/10. 1.4 was a 1/10, and 1.6 has been a 7.0/10. We're getting back to where we used to be and that's good.
As long as tanks aren't ****** up and the sixkin CR isnt as op as i predict it to be, i predict this game will be finally starting to improve on what it was in chrome.

Lasers about to become obsolete with no adjustment to weapon ranges and the introduction of new weapons. It was already getting outclassed by AR's and Scrams lol |

Hmm...
People say that a Gal Ass can fit a full rack of damage mods and have armor up the ass...
But honestly, my suit's CPU/PG is maxed out and I can't do that.
If anything it's the Gal Logi, who can have 38942839432849248932 armor and 3x complex damage mods with a duvolle.
My assault can't even fit a duvolle if I put on two damage mods.
My proto assault suit:
2x basic plates
2x enhanced reps
2x complex damage mods
1x complex shield extender (explosive spam still kills me like a ************)
GEK 38
Syndicate SMG
M1 Locus
Allotek Nanohive
Now, about the duvolle being the best gun?
B.S
Absolute BS.
If it wasn't for the higher CPU/PG consumption, I would have switched to the SCR on all of my suits.
For now I only use it on the amarr assault and gal logi who have the excess CPU/PG needed.
But once I do have it?
I wreck everything, there is no match to this beast.
Fluxes are useless because the max shields you can get on a suit is destroyed by a core locus, so what's the point of using a flux if a core locus can do just as well + actually kill people?

All 1.6 has brought me is about .75-1.5 seconds of latency...
Which is Why i suspect AR Gallentes are dominating the field. The AR has all the right tools to cut through lag (High RoF, high Damage, and lots o' bullets), and being Gallente is the only way you can get your HP to a level where it actually makes a difference.
The reason we are getting killed faster, or what seems like 3 bullets, is because of lag. |

Ah, I recommend you put on a shield extender ASAP.
It really improved my quality of life against explosives, it's just a nightmare having a weapon with +30% damage to you, and you can't even avoid it by taking cover :|

Considering the amount of armor I have < most Caldari Assault's shields...
No, the Gallente assault isn't the only way to have enough eHP.

I'd agree but in practice I drop people before they get that close.
I never run my gallente assault anyways because gallente logi can get similar tank at a similar move speed....and fit a proto scanner, proto link, along with an allotek hive.

Yeah...
I don't run my gal logi much because it feels like cheating everytime I put it on.
I just wreck everything in my way.

I am, for example.
I usually overheat the freaking ELM - 7 with Amarr Assault at lvl 5 and in its optimal range trying to kill a heavy. That's absolutely not normal.

I quite like the Breach assault rifle, I really want to use it more but a fully automatic Duvolle will drop you regardless
as it can easily match the DPS with mods and proficiency, not sure how the math works but I'm not having much
luck with the Breach outside of heavies and a few slow moving logis.
But as previously reiterated, the time-to-kill is absurdly short. It's a step in the right direction though.
As for AV, well everybody including myself finally got annoyed with tanks and were reluctant to spec into AV
but are now finally biting the bullet and finding it's worthwhile to have some form of AV to deal with them.
I'll have advanced swarms by the end of the weekend, that should be enough.

I'd like to notify you that even vet players have problems with the dropships (not myself of course) Just looks at the FG fatty players who cant land a DS without causing it to explode. (Mind you these are guys with 10+ mil SP)

You land a DS its takes damage way too easily
Duvolle is a funny weapon i dont seem to like it as much as the gek lol
Tanks are dead, i have 2 sets of proto AV now and use the FG for killing infantry
Breach AR i still dont see as much, duvolle is still king by a long shot
Heavys are still around, HMG tho is dropping off since the weapon is crap and no AA
Scouts are hit n miss i find but most do travel with the shotgun

Zatara, that's Pretty much what it takes for a heavy in 1.6 to do work against multiple proto. Hmg are at a new all time low since uprising.
But that being said I still dare you to not fear me CQC. Don't ever let me find you alone. (^_^) |
