DUST Search - F**k the teleporting RE

deezy dabest wrote:

REs have tons of issues.

Blast radius too large (if in fact they are a/v as they claim this is not needed)
If anything blast radius is too small (smaller than a grenade), furthermore the blast radius has a further tendency to glitch to 0, not killing someone stood directly on it.

Sentinels not getting resistances
This is probably for the best, Sentinels aren't meant to be door kickers and RE's are area denial. In reality if you are Ant's nesting RE's are the counter to your gameplay.

Refilled by nanohives and supply depots (no other equipment is)
Probably because no other equipment does damage. Futhermore the only other equipmemt that needs restocking, the nanohive, is restockable by simply reselecting your suit from the depot.

Random sliding when place around an objective that leaves them immune to flux and EYES
This was fixed, what you may instead be experiemce is when an RE clips through the cannon to sit under the console.

Can be frisbee tossed many meters which actually seems to count off of the activation timer while they are flying
This has been fixed, once more I can attest to this. You can test it yourself, find a tall building like the towers in line harvest. You can not detonate the RE's before they stop moving AND THEN arm.

If only two of these issues got fixed maybe they would be more in line, I am not even pointing at any specific item from the list.
The fact your complaining about stuff that's already been fixed, would say otherwise.

This is Scout 514 and the r/e benefits the scout so I can not say I expect to see any thing done about them.

They call me the Monkey - I like to jump off sh** and piss RE's all over your tank!

With my connection i see RE in a place, then they magically teleport a few meters away from their original position.

MrShooter01 Storm Wind Strikeforce Caldari State 1056	Posted - 2014.11.16 23:29:00 - [13] - Quote Yes, its broken. I have seen exactly what you are describing happen to me many times. Hell, I have been the scout throwing them, and I've seen them "teleport". I can't guess what's causing it, but I've got a very good feel for where the REs will actually end up when I chuck them. That said, here's my advice for dealing with it until they hopefully fix it, which has saved MY ass plenty of times so I can vouch for its effectiveness: Assume the scout is used to this bull** and knows where his RE is actually going to end up (your feet) Assume the RE is currently arming itself on your ankles, regardless of what your eyes are telling you. MOVE THE ** AWAY FROM WHERE YOU WERE STANDING OH GOD JC A BOMB GET OUT OF THERE ITS GONNA BLOW Kill the scout while he desperately hopes you will walk back over the RE

"Remotes should stick to vehicles so they can be used against enemy vehicles." They add it in, have it stick to all vehicles rather than making it specific because that would have been annoying to code, and suddenly people are using suicide bombs in their jeeps. The points of 1) and 2) happened long before they could stick to vehicles. They are coded to work like yourself rather than teammates. So teammates can't hurt you but you can hurt yourself which is why I believe you can shoot your own Remotes and why they kill you when activated but not friendlies. "This is B.S! This is B.S! I paid money! Cash money, dollars money, cash money!"

All of these problems need to be addressed but for me the biggest problem is these teleporting REs. It is so aggravating to watch a scout toss an RE at a friendly, see that it landed nowhere near you, go to flux said RE only to be blown up because somehow that RE is now under your feet. There is no way to counter something that isn't actually where you think it is. Gun control is not about guns...it's about control. The only way to ensure freedom is by having the means to defend it.

You can call it desync or teleport, the effect is the same. Since it doesn't happen only to me, i guess CCP should care about the situation and do something. The easiest thing would be increase the time before activation, enough to let every client update and show the real position of the RE.

No. JLAVs are not that good. Easy to counter and even without counter they often just plain fail. JLAV success ratio is far less than 50%. Far. Two best counters to vehicles are: - LAV with two man forge team in - Missile tank, with preferably AV as a pilot People would enjoy Dust a lot more if they accepted the fact that EVERYTHING is subject to change*

Just rush straight to scout. If you are heavy, then it's one of the counters for ya. Ps. RE is and should be like that. Effective versus vehicles but also as good versus infiantry.
