What happened with the MCC Sniper and Deploying Vehicles on Rooftop fixes from chromosome? Is Uprising running on a build that was pre-chromosome and is lacking the fixes made prior? In chromosome there were safeguards that kept players from firing into/out of the MCC and Deploying tanks on skyscrapers - what happened, exactly? How did these fixes get reverted, or were they intentional?
I mean, tanks on rooftops wouldn't be a big issue if orbital actually worked on them but considering that they don't, it's ripe for abuse as surviving AV is simply backing up to the center of the rooftop.
And please, for the love of God, don't move this thread to feedback/requests in some vague attempt at censorship - this is a legitimate set of questions... |

if I was to guess....the height limit was lower thus they couldn't deploy on tall buildings and mcc sniping isn't that big of a deal, just snipe them back. |

Tbh apart from a small amount of extra kills. Doing the "on the roof thing" doesn't win games. |

Enforcer HAV with a Railgun can decimate on certain maps, particularly the four point map with the six towers. Can't get vehicles out to counteract and it has a direct line of sight over Alpha/Bravo giving a distinct advantage to the northern team. |

In my experience, 'roof partys' as we used to call them in 2142 used to hinder your own teams efforts at playing the objectives on the maps, and would mostly end up in your teams loss regardless of how many kills you got.
sorry i know this has nothing to do with your question |

the problem with mcc sniping is not that it's uncounterable. it's not even that useful - usually it's the losing team that resorts to it. it's that the only way to counter is to go make a sniper yourself. at least for vehicles you can more or less keep your favorite fit and just slap on some AV nades.
but since the only solution to mcc sniping is even more sniping, you either throw your hands up and just join the other 12 crouching blueberries, or you try to keep playing the way you like while suffering random potshots.
it's like playing rock paper scissors except you add "middle finger" which beats the other three. |
