Joseph Ridgeson wrote:Always great to see a video from you Mr. Havoc. But I still have a question.... Whistling Song... It haunts me. As a Tanker, my only problem with tanks at the moment is the damage mods. With the nerf to hardeners, defense oriented tankers were hit fairly hard. Glass cannon tanks, like the double damage mod sica, were not changed at all. They kill me faster and I still kill them at the same speed.
that whistling song will be in my next video and I will tell you how to get hold of it, it is very catchy
yeah the damage mods took a hard hit from the nerf bat, it is abit frustrating but I can see why they did it .

Man, Bamm...there hasn't been a video yet where I've thought, "eh" or just feel that you've lost sight of what's important. In each one of your videos you have always brought a constructive and objective point to be considered. It's a voice not common (or at least from my travels) and it is definitely needed. Bamm, I hope you stick around. Your opinion matters.
Great video. Right to the point, not fancy nancy just down to the basics.
"Instead of focusing on one small facet of the game, have a broader outlook on the actual game itself"
^So very true. Instead of thinking in the immediate and of ourselves, we need to start looking at the "down the road" projections. The what ifs and what nots. Undoubtedly the choices made have a domino effect that often does nothing to change the problem we are attempting to change and/or only lead others to another avenue that will just soon enough follow the same path.
As always thanks a bunch Bamm for your contribution.
you made me blush

1. The railgun is not OP.
2. Blasters are not "effective" against vehicles and other tanks. Heck even a LAV driver worth his salt will be able to drive away before getting killed by a blaster. And as for other tanks: against armor tanked and hardened madrugars it sucks, and I don't have any problems blowing up pesky blaster tanks with my rail-Gunnlogi.
Blasters are only truly effective against infantry. Just because you CAN blow up a tank with a blaster (after spending almost half of your magazine), it doesen't mean it's "effective" at it. |

Of course you don't have a problem with blaster tanks because you're using the most OP weapon in the game! Railguns are not meant to be effective in CQC.
I think a range profile similar to the laser rifle will be the best for railguns. You'll actually have to think about your engagements instead of bum-rushing everything.

Just nerf the **** out of its turret rotation so that it's almost unusable in CQC. if a railgun were to move up to you, you would just circle around it until it dies. |

With all the whining about Blaster turrets effectiveness against infantry, I really wonder at how Autocannon and Pulse turrets will be implemented.

Yeah I mean nothing by it. Some people just have nice voices. Like Canus, or Ceej, or the dulcet. demure, yet wholesomely promising tones of Aero Yassavi.

Can't +1 this enough bamm, a lot of home truths.
I will however say, I don't think the Railgun Range Nerf is permanent. This kind of thing isn't CCP's usually MO. If anything its more of Band Aid than a fix.
You have to consider, if CCP turned round and said, we've listened to Community Feedback and we are gonna move the redline back. But it's gonna take 3 MORE months of this current state of affairs while we deal with the knock on effects of this.
The community would go crazy, why are you doing this, why are you doing that? Don't do this, don't do that, do this, fix it this way. What they have done is said. Here is a fix, this will plaster over the main problems we aren't gonna tell you any more while we work on it. Its effectively them turning round and saying we aren't gonna put up with this (redline rail tanks) but at the same time we don't have the time/resources available to give the fix you deserve.
I have no doubt the Railgun range will eventually rebuffed, but it's given CCP breathing room on the matter. Like you shutting up the annoying kid in the back.
Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Are we there yet?
Unless your a Computer Scientist don't tell me how Game Mechanics Work.

Not over powered you say? Well than what do you call it when a 48k railgun can kill my 250k suit in one hit form, what is it now 300m off? And theirs nothing that me and my other proto AV brothers can do about it? Is it skill? Is it a smart investment? Is it what I should have done 34mil skill points ago?

What if you were to sneak up behind him? What if CCP fixed tank collision so that people actually get damaged when driving into things like a ******? What if CCP nerfed the railgun so that a militia one wont 2 shot my gunnlogi? |

If you say so... You do seem like a reasonable man, however my comment was less directed at the whole video and more at the first 3mins and the title. I mean your "point" felt more like a Pyrex type troll when the final kill bored showed you at 2rd with 23 and 0 with a full team of your own corp bros .
But I digress, I guess clarity is the cost of comedy (the pie bit at the start was most entertaining, good show old-boy :)

i left that part of the footage in as i wanted to show that i am as guilty as everyone else for adopting this attitude of win at all costs, as you have pointed out i don't do serious and that's a good point i play DUST 514 for fun because i enjoy it as well as editing and posting videos on my ****** youtube channel, believe it or not there is method to my madness, there is a 3rd video im working on, im just waiting for a few statistics from ccp before i post it up ...... hopefully it will all make sense when the 3rd appears .
