im still calling bullshit I seen a Scout ran up to me and my squad threw one day and not even .1 sec later it detonated

And I'm calling bullshit on your bullshit.

If a scout is running up to you, kill him immediately. Even if he manages to toss an RE your way, he won't be able to detonate it until he respawns assuming he respawns in a suit that has an RE fitted and by then you'll be away from the RE. This is because no one is able to detonate the RE while bleeding out and there is a timer on the RE which is about 1-2 seconds long before it arms. If you double-tap their corpse and kill the clone, you force the player to have to respawn in about 10 seconds which is more than enough time to clear the area and safely shoot at the RE without risk to anyone.

Also, here are a few tips. Stick with an Gal Logi with an active scanner or bring your own active scanner to look for any planted REs. If you're about to hack an objective, toss a flux into it first to clear the objective of any REs setup as traps. About 9 out of 10 are objectives usually rigged with REs. Just throw a flux before hacking. Easy.

just because a scanner can pick them up doesnt make them any less broken. the things warp most of the time. they need to be fixed.

That sounds like a lag problem rather than a mechanic problem.

Zepod Titans of Phoenix 122	Posted - 2015.03.27 22:23:00 - [4] - Quote The biggest nerf the Remote Explosive could possibly receive is players deciding to gain some situation awareness and stop bricking their suits to the point where they can't run away. With the 2.5s delay (dispute what your ranting would lead us to believe, there is one) even a suit moving at 3m/s (even Amarr Sentinels move faster than this btw) there's still enough time to evade a Remote Explosive, provided that: 1. You are paying attention and notice the RE. 2. The RE hasn't already been placed before you notice it. 3. You aren't backed against a corner. 4. There is a clear and practical escape path. Provided that these perquisites are met, a player will never die to a Remote Explosive. Given how the counter(s) to REs are supposed to be situation awareness and movement this is working as intended. You may not like what I said, but it's true. It might anger or offend you, but it's still true.
Joseph Ridgeson warravens 3531	Posted - 2015.03.27 22:32:00 - [5] - Quote My problem with RE's is that once they are thrown, there is nothing you can do to play against it. If you shoot it, they explode. Flux grenades, they explode. Throwing them into a group of people means that there is almost nothing they can do to stop it. They can spread out but it is still there. How many times have you seen remote explosives in Gallente Research Facility and had to shoot it, resulting in the death of a single blueberry, because if it detonated at the wrong time it would kill the entire defense? Add to the fact they can be thrown a fair distance, the damage is high enough that it is pretty much instant death if you are within the 5 meter explosion radius, and the fact that they are restocked by Nanohives, you have something that I think is a bit too much.

Crimson ShieId Horizons' Edge 2280	Posted - 2015.03.27 23:08:00 - [11] - Quote The only real issue with RE's is that the net code occasionally craps out and they show in one place while being with another. There's already a delay on them, spec into the things and use them. If you press the detonator too soon, they actually tend to just poof for whatever reason. Even my Proto RE's have a decent timer on them. My Plasma Cannon says "Hello" to your face~

The timer is long enough as it is. I have been using REs for a while and I have given up using them as a primary weapon mainly because I'm not able to detonate them fast enough before I get killed. If people really are using REs as a principle weapon of choice, then it's probably because they have more experience with it. Maybe it's just me and I'm just not good enough with them, but then again I can wreck people with Nova Knives without any problem and that takes far greater skill than what REs demand so I don't know WTF.

Now that I have somewhat figured out the hot zones for most RE users..I just stay the fk away if I can. I notice that REs are generally hidden around corners by any area that looks like a choke point so that the person who planted the RE can have some guarantee of where the opponent may come from. Objectives are just too obvious for an RE to be planted on since almost anyone who hacks might be smart enough to carry some flux grenades with them. But anyways, if what KEROSIINI-TERO says is true then latency might be the principle issue on why REs are not taking 5 seconds before being able to detonate. One work-around is to extend the delay by an extra second but that's not really fixing the issue. That's just tip-toeing around the issue and that will only punish those players who have built a play style with them. The letancy needs to be addressed directly if we want this issue gone or mitigated. In other words if you have a symptom, logic dictates you must treat the illness that causes the symptom.

I agree it should be instant death depending on the mods u have on your suit but if they can just make it explode after one damn sec then it's already a problem Do I need to QQ some more about this bullshit? SHITPOSTERS ASSEMBLE! Molestia approved

That sounds like a lag problem rather than a mechanic problem. it may well be, however the ability to throw something 10m, that deals 1250 damage in a 5m radius is completely stupid. it takes to risk and can have great benefits. it needs looking at. I've seen this lag problem but it gets irritating when I see players actually use it as a tactic. I've seen the "hey I'mma gonna use a myofib and have it explode upon ground touch down". It equally gets annoying when I somehow am stuck on the games virtual steps and can't move much like how you can experience being stuck on the MCC when attempting to drop down. The only other problems I see with RE's are how scanners sometimes for reasons unexplained will scan and show the RE but it's not on the location scanned and is a few meters/feet away. It does actually matter if you've got a flux grenade and it "misses" just because it was actually in another spot. Frankly I think fluxes need to be adjusted, if an RE or nanohive are in it's effective radius but not on the same elevation due to it being on a feature of the terrain like a crate or vehicle that is also part of the terrain the flux won't grab it. These also make RE's a pain since I know bombers who use this as well fully aware that some game terrains make it nearly impossible to destroy the RE without a clear LoS, fluxes not working and the elevation it's on too small making you subject to it's explosive. RE's are fine, but ppl should really stop acting like it's "perfect". This is Dust and if there is a game glitch players can exploit to their advantage, even if not intended by the devs, they will use it to their advantage.
KEROSIINI-TERO The Rainbow Effect 1884	Posted - 2015.03.28 03:42:00 - [38] - Quote Maken Tosch wrote: I notice that REs are generally hidden around corners by any area that looks like a choke point so that the person who planted the RE can have some guarantee of where the opponent may come from. Objectives are just too obvious for an RE to be planted on since almost anyone who hacks might be smart enough to carry some flux grenades with them. But anyways, if what KEROSIINI-TERO says is true then latency might be the principle issue on why REs are not taking 5 seconds before being able to detonate. One work-around is to extend the delay by an extra second but that's not really fixing the issue. That's just tip-toeing around the issue and that will only punish those players who have built a play style with them. The letancy needs to be addressed directly if we want this issue gone or mitigated. In other words if you have a symptom, logic dictates you must treat the illness that causes the symptom. Um, I meant there was a mistake in activation delay increase, it was announced but did not happen. That should be fixed. Looking at both sides of the coin. Even Aurum one.
