I am so late to this thread....

I'm curious though....why are people so afraid of strafe? People miss their targets..hit detection has little to do with it. I hit targets when they're strafing all the time. The strafe adds flair and enjoyment to this game that is missing in other shooters.

Tuesday morning at approximately 10:30am EST-we played against you, Arirana was on your team.

i and my son had him in a 15meter "angled" kill box and little damage was dealt, 2x HMG vs a dancer.

Not my aim, definitely not my 17yrd olds thumbs, not my fiber optic network.

Dorms, apartments, public housing, condo's, microwave, wifi broadband, satellite internet are all issues nevermind the Brazilians on your team and 2 japanese--and CCP is obtuse.

How does he die then? You guys just couldn't believe that you couldn't hit him and blame it on strafe. I do it sometimes too....sometimes hit detection is seems wierd in this game but not because of strafe. A player could be standing still and it'll seem like bullets aren't registering.

The problem is not the strafe itself Ydubbs, it is that the hitbox is lagging around when you are strafing too fast. Hence strafing is not done only to throw off your opponents aim, it is also used (exploited) to glitch your hit detection.

Dear Players,

We are going to add separate strafe penalties to HP modules. We will not be reducing normal speed, nor running speed, only left-right speed, making the "dodging" of bullets more difficult, and Sentinels lack of mobility to become a real vulnerability when stacking eHP.

The calculations will theoretically be based off of relative mass (Scouts) and total mass (Sentinels). Medium Frames will not be affected as much as these two. Basic Frames may end up not having any penalties at all.

This is quite blunt, but it's been a long time coming.

Extenders and Armor Plates are obviously the focus here, and Reactives and Ferroscales may be omitted in the first pass.

P.S. Medium speeds may get shaken up in light of the Assault HP boost , Logistics may get a speed boost, Commandos as well, Assault speed reduction, all very small.

Just giving you my two cents:

Shield tanking already sucks compared to Armor as they have hives and rep tools. Please don't screw us even more by making us have a movement penalty. The delay penalty is already enough. If anything you should be trying to find a way to make shields better as current PC battles have pretty much no shield tankers on the battlefield. It's usually ak0 heavies with logis, the occasional gk0/ak0 assault and some scouts.

I like how the only way to get people to use myos is to make them do something completely unrelated to melee damage

Makes sense to me.

+ Climb Ladders Faster
+ Throw Grenades Further
+ Reduce Weapon Kick / Sway
+ Swing / Recover Knives Faster

The more I think about it, the more I realize that nerfing movement is the correct solution to bad netcode.

If you can't move, the network prediction has nothing to predict!

I also think that removing ISK from the game is the solution to proto stomping.

If there's no ISK then how can anyone buy Proto.

SIMPLE!

So wait,

I didn't see this in the patch notes.. This actually made it into the game? Seriously Cadari and Minitar needs some better representation in this game.

More armor users.. so make shields more like armor? Just mind blowing some of the things that people think are good ideas on the game.

Don't get me wrong, I'm all about fixing things but **** you guys add a barrage of Flux orbitals to the game and give a huge nerf to shields?

oh no, if i'm expected to do more than jiggle a stick back and forth i'll be helpless

i better defend the honor of ~*true skill*~ stick wiggling gameplay as childishly as possible
