Thaddeus Reynolds Facepunch Security 425	Posted - 2015.09.24 10:59:00 - [1] - Quote It's almost everything I wanted (but ofc some of what I wanted couldn't be done in a hotfix xD)...and so much more... Wait...wait...wait...Melee doing full damage vs vehicles...I don't know how I feel about this, but wait, is my powerfist on the Commando getting nerfed?...how can I rip and tear if I can't rip and tear? New Assault bonuses look awesome...a 25% RoF bonus on Gallente Assaults is going to be...interesting...to say the least, can't wait to see how it plays out and finally, the Caldari Weapon bonussed on the Caldari Suit... AND TRADEABLE STD BPOS!

Does this count as a real combat drawback?) Swarm launcher: + Tracking + Doesn't need to be used on a heavy suit - Short range - Travel time - Completely unable to defend against infantry, rendering a sidearm mandatory - Unreliable on ground targets (e.g. frequently running into walls) - Lock-on time (less than forge gun's charge up time though) - Cannot be pre-charged (unlike the forge gun) There're probably a couple of points you can scrounge elsewhere, but I don't really think that lineup favours the swarms. The one thing that has always bugged me about the FG is that range. It's a railgun on a heavy suit that has full up and down directional aiming and able to position itself in far more advantageous positions over a tank it's intended to fight. I would personally like to see the FG get knocked down a peg or two on range. Maybe trade out for more damage but less range. Breakin, where you at fool. At the same time though, the forge gun has lower magazine, ammo carried, and a slower refire rate than the big railgun turret. Additionally, the platforms the forge gun is deployed on are far more susceptible to small-arms fire than the HAVs/emplacements the Railgun turrets go on. My only problem with the forge gun is how effective it is at sniping...making it effectively a better sniper rifle than the sniper rifle, but this is more an issue with the sniper rifles than with the forge gun itself Khanid Logi and Tanker, sometimes AV Heavy or Sniper.

Which you are standing next to? GTFO No...Xel has a point. 150m is just over max-rifle engagement range...it is actually very close (similar ranges to what you can use a laser rifle at). I don't think that the range should have been increased, but I also don't think it needed to be decreased any further (unless invisible swarms returned as an issue).

This is both a quality of life improvement for: - Swarmers can now actually fire at dropships again, without having to try to position themselves directly under the target. - Dropships have a much more reasonable chance of escaping shots they are actively trying to avoid. You still get the turning radius nerf, which is fine, but we need some operational range we just don't have to make swarms viable. Forge still maintains far superior damage, range, and accuracy. Remember, dear Soraya, with your sweet sculptural logics and werds, that the swarmer is effectively invisible (not rendering) to the DS pilot outside of the new lockon range. Now pilots will be able to see you with your buffed shields on your buffed swarm-dmg calmando around the same time they can actually engage you. Wutz the problem? Looking forward to seeing what sort of interesting fits come out of the Cal Mando =) Do they add damage mods for swarm/sniper capability? Do they add shield rechargers for hit-and-run capability? Do they add extenders for better tanking relying on the newly buffed stats? SO EXCITING :D Myos for mobility, positioning, and power-fist is probably what I'll run Khanid Logi and Tanker, sometimes AV Heavy or Sniper.

Are you talking about WP for kills, or usefulness to the team? Maybe I'm wrong but aren't you guys wracking up +75's every time you get more than one volley off? The WP for damage is pretty much broken since the last update, hardeners take the damage down so far that you basically dont do enough damage to trigger WP rewards (though you still get plenty of points killing throw away gorgons and vipers, oh boy). This...combination it seems of regeneration and hardeners...I more only seem to get vehicle damage points if the vehicle fits plates/extenders anymore Khanid Logi and Tanker, sometimes AV Heavy or Sniper.

I do think Swarms need the variants looked at: having the base SL function like a 'Breach' with high damage but longish lock-on times (for HAV work) and the Assault having lower damage (probably a little lower than the current SL) but with longer lock range, faster lock-on and more shots in the clip. That would go a long way towards solving SL balance by making them actually balance-capable, instead of OP vs one and UP vs the other. I'm receptive to the idea of separating SLs into long and short range versions. However I advise against separating them too far for several reasons. Most importantly, once we get into a territory where the two variants are separated into "anti-DS SL" and "anti-HAV SL" the utility of each individual SL will be greatly reduced. It's a good idea to have one SL that does long range supressive damage to both DS and HAV and a short range SL that can kill HAVs and forces DS to immediately flee out of range. But the long range SL needs to be able to deter an HAV that is rolling up to your face and the short range SL needs to be able to keep a DS away. Otherwise people won't use either of them unless they perform so well at their respective jobs that it'll be an unfair fight for the HAV or DS pilots. would love to have these thoughts spelled out in actual before and after numbers per each swarm variant. Question for theorycrafting...can missile speed and/or flight range be adjusted between variants? or just lock range? Khanid Logi and Tanker, sometimes AV Heavy or Sniper.

I just need to create a different projectile type if we would do a faster one. It is also possible to do one missile per swarm, if that's something interesting. Spreadsheet Time!
