I find myself doing both. I'll scare some reds into backing into incoming blues just by spraying their shields down from a corner. Or I'll get the enemies attention and drag them over to like two or three blues for them to get gun downed.-á
When I'm by myself I focus heavily on speed and agility. I never try to go head to head but sometimes it be like dat, you know? You get spawned into an assault on your point and you're stuck defending after the first responders got mowed down. Usually I'll just sneak up behind someone and carve em up or I'll speed past them and blaze them in their soft spots and then high tail it out of there...
Some would probably call these moves...wimpy but I'm pretty sure those people probably died by my hands. And if not, they will if we ever meet. It is a fun setup to play. A real challenge. Curtain death is lurking around every corner. I play a smart game with (the majority of the time) a dedicated group of team players, all of whom I am very proude to be in asosiation with and to call my friends. Most of the time I play the role of point man (drawing the initial enemy fire while the rest of my squad shortly falls in behind me and mops up the leftovers or suckering unwary victims into bad tactical positions) or advanced squad recon (dropping uplinks or gathering intel on enemy positions strong/weak points at the front lines). I do more than my fair share of killing. Most of the time I run a type two scout, with a repair tool and nano injector. It is a an unrivaled force multiplayer. It is good to see another dedicated SMG scout. Cheers
SMG is awesome, as a backup when your main gun has run out of ammo, though using it as a main weapon means severely gimping yourself. you can take out around 4-5 people with a 60 mag clip from the AR, but only around 2-3 from the SMG, 2 when spraying & praying, 3 if you aim and its optimum range is in your face.
Not ideal, unless you get lucky.
But i guess its your clone and ISK to waste
Hey look enemies on the other side of the street .....aww shucks Sh** sniper up there ....oooh daym .... Shoot the Lav Driver quick .....ow feck wait ... Heavy incoming, shoot it shooot IT /scout uses Water gun....its not very effective LASER!! ....BLIP ...there goes the scout ...damnit... Shotgun Scout!!! ....Feeling Lucky ?
Like i said, its a good weapon, not Main weapon material and its really a spray & pray weapon.
Btw Ignoble Son, i start to see a pattern here, you want more dodge options while spraying & praying....yeah ....no...

I'm sporting a 2.04 KDR with 3187 kills and 1566 deaths at the moment and it continues to rise every day. It is nothing big to brag about but I am also in the sh!t 100% of the time.
You play the game your way and I'll play it mine.Twisted
I don't need to skill into SMG to make it work, my KDR is 4.85 with 6692 kills & 1373 deaths, without a team, no support flying solo with Assault & AR/SMG at the frontlines, my funnest moments are breaking teams solo and my best game so far is 51/0 on skirmish and 44/0 on ambush while taking every risk possible to get more kills.
And yeah i know you play it your way, but if we have 16 guys on our team doing it your way, its gonna be a horrible lost game but i guess your on the mindset of "the other guy" will do it properly. |

And yeah i know you play it your way, but if we have 16 guys on our team doing it your way, its gonna be a horrible lost game but i guess your on the mindset of "the other guy" will do it properly. You have no concept of team mechanics do you. How about this: we could squad up and you can find out exactly how useless I am. Just let me know and I'll shoot you a message in game.
It depends really on the team in question.
If its a good team, everything runs smooth and everyone does their part, if its a bad team, you are trusting them blindly to be there when you need em or to take out for say a sniper, if they can't do that, it means theres a hole in your teamwork and someone else needs to cover up that hole. Dragging down the team because you think it was cool to carry an SMG over say an AR witch is better at anything the SMG can do.
Like they say, a chain is only as strong as it weakest link.
I played APB R only with a dedicated team of RL friends, 2 of them i would call aim impaired, they know it, we know it, we joke about it but they keep dying and it reflects on the missions won at the end of the day.
Same team in War Z, except there 4 of my friends started hacking because they couldn't take getting killed too much.
You cannot pretend that teamwork trumps everything and anything if the team itself is flawed from the core, in my group of RL friends that play games, there are only 2 good ones, 1 average and 5 really bad FPS players in it.
Yeah about teaming up, let me know when you use a proper Main weapon instead of a water gun.
(Don't get me wrong if its to save PG or CPU to carry other stuff needed for your playstyle, by all means, use it, but if its to be diffrent or cool) don't

I would say that I am doing quite alright. I also have a A series laser rifle assault fit that I am quite fond of, but I perfer the logi scout roll.

Dude, you don't have to make up excuses, just tell the truth, which I am sure would probably go something like: "Na, dude im to afraid you'll prove me wrong."
I don't really need to prove anything to you, you have your take on how to do thing, i got my take and speak my mind, don't like it, don't post, ill group with you for giggles don't worry.
Quote:Let me address my actual annoyances here before I get into the meat of it:
I did say i like the SMG, but liking it does not make it a primary weapon, whatever the SMG does, the AR does better and i know i switch up aswell, need a heavy forge AV, sure, need a sniper.
Anyways the point of the matter seems to have diluted. |
