For those of you who haven't been able to play the game and see the changes yourself or haven't it to see the details of the Hotfix -I've got you covered in this video. Featuring an unintended 40-0 officer run.
On October 8th Hotfix "Fox Four" hits the ground running. Infantry shields are now made viable after a year of unviability. Gallente and Caldari assault getting better bonuses and more!
CCP and the members of the CPM are ecstatic about this fix and gives us a great stepping stool for the future.
I'd like to get some input from the Magec users as to how they are finding the bonus to them I'd also like to here from some of the small blaster users to see if you guys notice anything different.
For anyother kind of feedback please leave it in the main FoxFour thread here
~I'll see you on the battlefield guys.

1: Did they buff small turrets to be able to do full damage to vehicles?
2: How are the new AV methods (MD, melee, etc.) vs. vehicles?
3: How are HAV's going along with the whole nerfed weakspots?

I haven't gotten a huge amount of time in with them, but I find that magsecs still kick a bit too much, though the reduced spool up is very nice for them.
Once again, haven't gotten a lot of time in with small basters but after having been shot at by incubus pilots with them on, they still seem incredibly unreliable, smaller AOE than the average flaylock pistol presents some issues, maybe a bit less starting dispersion and 3m splash (with a progression based on turret level?). When I get the chance I'm going to try running an incubus with small missile on nose and 2 small blasters for gunners and see if I can get a bit more well defined opinions from squadmates.

1. No, I accidentally said small turrets
2. So far they are keeping them on their toes like they should be. I am a bit worried about mass driver spam but so far the spam has been averagely consistent and not above normal.
3. Pretty much #2.

The magsec SMG works well in a lot of situations. However it is not suited to shooting players in cover. (operation skill lvl 5). The recoil is too much, making the weapon shoot above enemy heads after roughly 15 shots if the weapon is aimed at the enemies chest. Bolt pistol works well against enemies that use cover a lot.
I cant seem to notice the bolt pistol ROF nerf. Perhaps that is because I attempt to shoot when my aim is 'spot on' instead of firing full auto while trying to aim.
My shotgun amarr assault still wrecks gal assaults with any AR because they dont keep there distance. They keep charging at me or letting me charge at them. |

I don't agree with your opinion on how the Sniper Rifles should be handled according to shields. Just because SR are Caldari and shields are their preferred tanking style doesn't mean it shouldnt be able to "effectively" kill a player within a reasonable time frame.

As a sniper, you made me chuckle (and cry a little) when you suggested making the Roden an "anti-shield" sniper. Pls no. I like one shotting people with it. Dont take that one joy away that keeps me playing D: Pls no. I also do enjoy losing them too. :P

The magsec is great finisher now going toe to toe with smgs. The recoil is manageable compared to pre socks four and just feels like it hits harder in general and dat the spool time reduction is lovely.

I'm in the process of finishing mine up, but halfway through the hotfix actually released (I recorded the audio like 3 days ago as a sort of "preview" lol)
Good stuff. Nice to have a formalized insight from the CPM as well.

Talks about the good of the game, yet officer stomps newbs in pubs possibly chasing them out of the game. I ran into Zaria doing this in game yesterday too. Good job CPM, good job. (slow claps)

I still don't like the Minmando/Calmando switch for swarm bonus. If the reason is just lore, why not give Cal scout the nova knife bonus as well? I feel like Minmandos got the shaft on that.
Armor tanks and large blasters are still a bit OP. Blasters need a range reduction; I've been able to snipe at infantry over 75m and the range makes kiting or running as a shield tank almost impossible. Armor tanks need a speed nerf and turn speed buff. They have ungodly speed and acceleration with a nitro, making range control with shield tanks impossible and escaping AV easy. They should be brought more in line with shield tanks, but can have slight variances. The turn speed buff is to compensate.
For LAVs, the best option is to make new variants of them (probably reuse the Scout LAVs) that have better tanks and bonuses to handling and turrets (and more expensive of course). Perhaps even model them after the Saga II with a built in super-hardener with long cool down. Give them turret rotation and acceleration bonuses, the the racial could be missile speed/range, rail range/rof, blaster ammo in clip/heat build up. Give them the former LAV base hp and a few extra slots.
Dust is there! I was real!

On the Shogun Caldari Sentinel the bolt pistol isn't performing well enough as a side arm. I understand if your using it as a pressure weapon but not for the sentinel play style when you need to use it when some one has the jump on you.. not the other way around.
Otherwise the Magsec seams to be fun for pub matches and dominations. Need more time to see how things settle though before I can say anything final about the two.

The reason isn't just lore, that was a bonus.
1.Each Commando gets a bonus to their races weapons
2. The Cadari don't have an AV option like the Other races do. With the addition to the Mass Driver doing damage to vehicles now it would be incredibly unfair to let the Minmatar do both damage to vehicles with Caldari Swarms and Minmatar Mass Drivers.
3. The Caldari Commando really needed something else going for it.
Now the Caldari Commando has Swarm Launchers Gallente Commando have Plasma Cannons Minmatar have Mass Drivers and if it's possible I'd like to get an AV laser rifle Variant that would be even deadlier on the Amarr Commando.

It's happened once or twice someone couldn't pay the price, and I'm afraid I had to rake 'em 'cross the coals.

Where's the love for the ion pistol? Would it be possible to make the charge ion a tactical variant and have another with no heat build up? The amount of heat built up per shot is really hard to control and half a charge will end up overheating it with an unwanted charge shot.
The small blaster was much more managable with a tighter spread. The only complaints about blasters is that they were always useless. Then they got the splash damage removed, rof increase, higher dispersion to make it easier to hit people?, then the hmg reversed dispersion where like you said is pointless with overheat.
A way to fix it is to make the thing accurate again with regular dispersion, but have it so either splash damage, or damage increases with heat. I also think more damage per shot with a slower rof could help. Even with damage and rof close to the large blaster it's efficiency against vehicles is only around 65% for shields. |
