Remember, stories, fits, advice, and positive discussion! Lets get nice and refreshed from a week of grumpy nonsense.
Here's my list based on all the trash that gets cycled around these forums:
- 1.2 sounds awesome! Now I can pay back everyone I convinced to buy tanks/dropships/proto suits.
- Aiming isn't at all broken...seriously where is this coming from?
- MCC Sniping is fine if you're at least putting slugs downrange...AFK is unacceptable. If you're "not having fun with this game" that's a personal problem. When you sit around, that's not only affecting you, it's blocking up slots that could be used for manpower. Can't say how many times my squad and I lose a battle we could have probably won with 2 or 3 more bodies.
- Manning a turret for the whole game is fine, too. Nobody has the right to tell you how to play the game. Sticking on a railgun basically makes you a weak, stationary tank...which is not unusable. Please throw some of those rail slugs down range and help us not get run over!
- My beloved mass driver is still completely effective. It has simply become more of a specialized weapon that requires a dedicated fit, similar to the laser rifle. With both of these weapons it is imperative to a) run with a squad and b) damage tank for days. The changes made to this weapon have actually done a good job of filtering out the spammy "noobtubers". Freedom + Flaylock + Flux Grenades = Dead Somas. Yeah, Somas. Smoke would help though....
- There is no Fused Grenade/Core Flaylock Epidemic. Treat Flaylocks like shotguns. Suddenly they're pretty easy to deal with. And Fused grenades are a fine addition. Sure, they're kinda cheap and sometimes I lose ISK to a strafe duel I probably would've won otherwise...but they're not too bad to deal with if you're engaging from a vantage or flank instead of running straight to them and strafing around. Besides, every time someone uses Fused Grenades, money goes into developing the game you guys like so much. Let the noobs have their crutch.
- LLAVs are fine and not that difficult to deal with. I only wish the friendly ones would stop and help me boost against these swarms hitting my tank...but they probably don't have a transporter...for you know, logistics and stuff...speaking of...
- Blues...don't get into that militia tank. Don't do it. You know what's going to happen.
