PARKOUR PRACTIONER Fatal Absolution General Tso's Alliance 2237	Posted - 2014.11.20 05:02:00 - [4] - Quote If they move codebreakers to highs wouldn't mind shield tank being nerfed. But, shouldn't theybuff armor penalty instead of ner shield? That makes more sense to me. PSN Sil4ntChaozz *The Vertigo Ninja* Think Plan>Determination

Badgerr Rager Fatal Absolution General Tso's Alliance 811	Posted - 2014.11.20 05:14:00 - [7] - Quote They just made Caldari Heavy in a good place. Not overpowering and really balanced in my opinion. If they nerf the shields on the scouts, it will in return nerf Caldari Heavy and Commando. Like that will make these suits useless because we already have a flux grenade that will take out most if not all of our shields now. They nerf it, good luck to all those people who skilled into it... People always complaining before giving it time and seeing. A patch came out, things changed, people cannot kill so they complain because they NEED to adapt to these changes but they don't and find it too difficult. Ritatti, start listening to the players who play a lot and have used majority of suits for a while. Not these people who cry cry cry because "Omg I cannot kill now., they nerfed my ****" Come on people. One day, I would like to be good at this game

Meeko Fent Kirkinen Risk Control Caldari State 2105	Posted - 2014.11.20 05:41:00 - [9] - Quote You say that as though You can play shield w/o stacking plates as well. Because you wanted to be something you're not. A hero. Do you feel like one now?

Weeeee planetside 2 is looking really good ccp. I don't really understand what you are saying. I apologized if I miss something but you have basically said something that is a non sequitur. I cannot see how a nerf to Scout will nerf Shield Tanking. It is not as if you said something along the lines of "Nerfing the Blaster is a nerf to a Tank's survivability." Please elaborate.

One Eyed King Land of the BIind 6025	Posted - 2014.11.20 05:48:00 - [11] - Quote I don't think that this will be as significant a nerf to scouts as you think it might be perceived. Not to mention they are looking at armor penalties as well. I think this is merely a way to take King HP down a notch by requiring a greater sacrifice. I doubt shields will get near as hard as armor given how low they are compared within tiers to armor mods. Thunderbolt. verb and noun. "James thunderbolted in his pants."

Pvt Numnutz Prophets of the Velocirapture 1975	Posted - 2014.11.20 05:52:00 - [12] - Quote Scouts need a Nerf, right now they are better assault suits instead of scouts the most combat a scout should see is skirmishing enemy lines, not being on the goddamn line.

I'm tired of all the stupid strafing, especially from scouts but nerfing shields again is unwarranted. Do you have a link? Master Skyshark rider Kaalaka dakka tamer

ZDub 303 Escrow Removal and Acquisition Negative-Feedback 3300	Posted - 2014.11.20 06:22:00 - [16] - Quote If you play based on RP and not FOTM, then you should suffer the consequences of that choice. If shield tanking and Caldari suits/weapons drops from the meta then you stop using it and move on to the new meta. That's how you win, if you are unwilling to make the change then you must wait until shields and caldari come back into the meta.

The idea would be to normalize the strafe penalty on HP added. Why would that be unfair? With Extenders granting lower HP than Plates, obviously we would be talking about way lower penalties. Dual brick tanking should, however, be extremely slowing. Someone said, just make them all strafe slower, but that "is" punishing everyone for the sins of the few. There were discussions among a few people about the profile penalty, but that was not from Rattati. Perhaps he decides to pick that idea up, but at this point Extenders would also get a strafing penalty, albeit smaller than armor. Thunderbolt. verb and noun. "James thunderbolted in his pants."

They want balanced gameplay not this is obviously better so lets use this. I expected something smarter out of n era scrub We fight for the future of the State not our personal goals
Blueprint For Murder Immortal Guides 347	Posted - 2014.11.20 09:15:00 - [20] - Quote I brought this up many times when I was promoting side arms only scouts. How scouts can not be balanced because they are interconnected with every other class. It won't be the last time I am sure, but rattatati did say something about being able to put penalties on individual classes so we will see how it plays out.

Leadfoot10 Molon Labe. General Tso's Alliance 2232	Posted - 2014.11.20 22:10:00 - [22] - Quote Jacques, Why all the PS2 rants? Is that really necessary? More to the point, do you really think scouts aren't OP? Even if you don't and think this is truly the death of shield tanking, isn't it better to see how it plays out? My sense is that CCP will get it right...eventually...and recent Dust history has shown this to be correct. I see no reason to throw in the towel based on a forum post not yet implemented -- that's just being silly.
hfderrtgvcd 1224	Posted - 2014.11.20 22:11:00 - [23] - Quote Rattati will listen to feedback. He has already said ne is reconsidering it, and if he does do it, the penalty will be small. You can't fight in here! This is the war room.
