Michael Arck 6089	Posted - 2014.12.25 04:03:00 - [1] - Quote What's the problem? The Sentinel doesn't feel right. The HMG doesn't feel right. I just played a couple of games of Dust today and I just can't put my finger on it. It feels like everytime I jump into the suit, I'm Ralphie with the pink fluffy bunny suit on. So what's the problem with Sentinel? Why is it not scary unless it has a logi? Why is the HMG basically a clown weapon now?

Bahirae Serugiusu Vendetta Reactionary Force 407	Posted - 2014.12.25 04:11:00 - [3] - Quote Sentinels are still a threat with or without logi. They are borderline tanks and have the downside of being the biggest targets in the game (behind vehicles), slower then my boss in a scooter and just as blind as her. They are great for point defense so I guess you are just using it wrong. The State will always survive.

I have said what I'm going on about in the OP. Sentinels are not that scary. Mercenaries, at one point of time, wouldn't just shoot at a Sentinel at close range. They would run for the hills. I don't even fear heavies when I see them. I know I can best them because of their HMG finicky nature and their defense is a joke. Maybe the game has changed but the only ones that were problematic were the Gals. Every other racial class is one big fat joke.

DeadlyAztec11 Ostrakon Agency 6565	Posted - 2014.12.25 04:32:00 - [8] - Quote Yeah... I don't think we are playing the same game Put your flags up in the sky. And wave them side to side. Show the world where you're from. Show the world we are one.
Bradric Banewolf D3ATH CARD RUST415 584	Posted - 2014.12.25 04:39:00 - [9] - Quote Depends on your race, and what hit you. Most modded controller players with CR's or ScR's go right at you knowing full well they can kill you as fast as you can them. As for them (heavies) feeling different I don't think CCP has changed them for the worse yet, but the pressure is on in the forums. Apparently bad players who keep running head first into hmg's with their faces are complaining that heavies guarding points in corners are OP. Because apparently as an assault player is supposed to just walk in, and gun heavies down 1v1?! Also, guarding the point isn't what heavies are supposed to be doing. We're supposed to be running across open areas waiting to be raped by long range fire like idiots. "Anybody order chaos?"

So what's the problem with Sentinel? Why is it not scary unless it has a logi? Why is the HMG basically a clown weapon now? I can actually relate. I feel like this new patch changed something within the sentinel. I can't put my finger on it though. It's not the same anymore. My scout trousers commands me! Check out my Stream and videos

Maybe the game has changed but the only ones that were problematic were the Gals. Every other racial class is one big fat joke. I think you have had a little too much eggnog. Recently went against a full team of the same corporation. (Pubs). I mowed them down, 1, 2, 3, 4, ,5 ,6 then they began to spam ofther Heavies, they too got mowed down. I melted a prototype assault 35m away in a fraction of a second. He turned and hardly even damaged me. To me it seems far too OP, no matter which side of the weapon I'm on.

Vicious Minotaur 1567	Posted - 2014.12.25 05:42:00 - [14] - Quote Well, all Rattati ever seems to do is increase heat buildup for the HMG... Never mind the myriad of other ways the HMG could be balanced. I make due with the misguided balance attempts by equipping 3 heavy damage mods on my heavy suits. Makes the gun feel decent. Still, I'm beginning to hate playing as an HMG heavy (but you're bound to get bored of something you've been running since chromosome! <-- says the hypothetical moron. Too bad things have changed to the point that the things I put my SP into are no longer what I invested with in the first place.) CCP sure knows how to makes things less fun...
