What you miss is that Vehicles changes did not come without reason.
If I would at Uprising 1.0 chosen infantry-only side of skilling me character I would:
- End up matches with score 37/0 and none would ever call my weapon OP on forums.
- While being at the middle of map I could clearly see red-structures at edge of map, even if they would not be dangerous for me and other infantry around me.
- If I would get hit, I could hide behind filar and regenerate my shield instantly.
- I would have no problem at all with LoS - people would not magically disperse 50m in front of me.
- I would have no problem with shots registration.
- I would be 'Jack Of All Trades' at Supply Depot.
etc.
But I made wrong decision, and push all me SP in to vehicles, and thats why:
- 1/3 of my shots are not registered.
- I can easily kill RDV(or however that deploying vehicles to battle call) with 3 shots easily, and get that extra 150WP, but all the time 1 of them are not registered.
- 1/4 to 1/5 of LMissile shots are registered on infantry.
- It is extremely hard to me finish up match with score 20/0, and even that, there are alleways people that call me role OP.
- LoS on infantry is broke, and once I can see on 200m, secondly I can not see guy who is 50m from me.
- Red-structures are usually invisible - even if they trying shoot me.
- Swarms are invisible for 85% of time, it's funny because they they kill best armor-fitted HAV with singiel valley if pilot do not have any tanking module active.
- Forge Gun shots are sometimes invisible.
- LRailgun have range of 600m but all you can see on that range is red chevrons, and only if your squadmates can see them, and you share your LoS with them(that why you usually can not see red RHAV that snipe).
- SRailgun have amazing attributes but just 35% dmg modifier - on everything
- SBlasters are worst than handheld weapons.
- Vehicle movement has always impact on where SMissile goes(where you aim is secondary on priority list).
- Vehicles passive shield recharge is broke, it's too slow, and you can not simply recharge it at Supply Depot.
..and list go one, and go one through the OP AV grenades, to Lock-your-vehicles, and thing that we are stuck in vehicles(to the end) if some blueberry want to kill MCC by our militia small railgun.. ow and that being successful HAV pilot on battlefield match do not guarantee you return of your investments in buying that HAV.
Big 'Uprising' vehicles buff was in fact small nerf compare to what we had, and everything that comes after this was not better, but worst. We deserve for respec because of this. if some Infantry-Caldary-Assault-Assault-Rifle lover would have to go through the same way as we did, he would trash this game at 1.3.
It's nice to be nice to other people, but Infantry tree do not deserve for respecialization, they were in good condition since this game launch. And even that, they get from time to time really cool exploits like Scrambler Rifle that never overheat, or Assault Rifle that does not have recail on modded DS3.
All that vehicles tree ever get, and I consider as exploit was '25% resistance' on LLAV from nowhere, and of course Infantry people took advantage over this as well. |
