A beautiful Wednesday to start the weekly grind! Time for some positive discussion!
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. |

Midas' "Don't try this at home" fit of the week:

L Plasma Cannon S Breach SMG G Packed AV Grenades X Nanohive/Compact Nanohive
Highs: Militia Shield Extender Blueprint x2
Lows: Cardiac Regulator (Mandatory if you want to kill LAVs) Militia Armor Repairer Blueprint
Cost: 3965 (will verify) ISK, +3000 if you don't have a Standard Assault Suit Blueprint
**WARNING requires fairly high skills....you might have to give up that cardiac reg for a CPU upgrade. |

I'd rather have constructive criticism than blind positivism. Never had a problem with aiming. I had some weird lag the other day but that was most certainly on my side as I was downloading Uncharted 3. Can someone explain in detail what is wrong? Or link me a video that shows it?

curious, what gun and suit do you main with? ds3, mouse,? whats your experiance with fps games? no troll, genuinly curious as im one that just cant play since upriseing
I use a broken, old DS3. I wouldn't dare spoil my shooter with a filthy mouse and keyboard I've used every weapon on this account or my many alts and I have had absolutely no problems hitting what I am shooting at. Scouts dodge bullets (and ions or whatever) but they kinda should. I turn both sensitivities down to 0 (except I put Y to 20 for shotgunning to catch the jumpers.)
EDIT: As for experience with FPS, I've played em all. Lots and lots of time in CODs, Battlefields, Killzones. I've even done PC stuff like CS, TF2 and Tribes. Didn't like Planetside. |

What a beast.
Has anyone run both the Gallente and Min Light suits, and which did you prefer?
Also, I love jumping over heavies. They look so confused :-D
Last night encountered a full squad of proto knifers.
I've never been so terrified. |

EDIT 2: Forgot about Halos, but Halo isn't really a shooter, it's more of a point and click. aye, if the zero in this bit "I turn both sensitivities down to 0" isnt a typo, then that will be why your ok with aiming i tried 10 and while aiming was a bit better, its far to slow for me to use regular with my play style, the defaults 50, how you get on with 50? do you always turn sens down on fps, or you felt you had too with dust? 50 is a little fast for me. I find that the acceleration really throws me off and I lose a lot of duels. If I'm running Logi or dedicated scanner (I do get bored) high sensitivity isn't too bad. Oh and sniping. I like sniping on high sensitivities. Low-sensitivity sniping makes me overthink, but I seldom go over 30-30.
I just read through this thread again. Still not sure of the issue people are having. |

gbh08 wrote: The drops in frames makes cqc unbareable, as does the hit detection, poppping man in face, red hit markers, yet he take no dmg, then to top it off, like we already established, sens needs to go down for accurate aiming, but at the cost of speed
50's too fast, but its not lol yeah that makes no sense to anyone but me i expect.
cqc , aiming up headshots while on the move, straffing, has all become awkward, im just constantly fighting the contorls
any other game and pre uprising, i aim i shoot, i kill, now i spend all the time fighting the controls, back and forth trying to line up shot, its like theres no precsion aiming , its gone, unless you go down to 10 or below sens, which is just far too slow for other situations,
I only have real frame drop client side for sure. Like when there's three instances of dust going on. The only thing Uprising has done for me in terms of aiming is that I cant pray and spray with the SMG anymore.
Like I said, I recommend turning off aim assist for everything. And I suppose there should be a wider range of sensitivities, or at least quick switching between saved presets.
Do you use a DS3? I find that when you use cheap 3rd party controllers the acceleration is ridiculous. It just keeps getting faster and faster instead of resetting when i switch direction.
I don't have too bad of a time using weapons like the SR or the TAR, but the ultra-low sensitivities that make these weapons work does kind of screw you over in CQC, but then again, they aren't great CQC weapons to begin with.
Weapons like the HMG most certainly need a little bit more fidelity cause you need at least 50-50 to use them well. |

( Again, no one is complaining about this ) Please try making constructive threads, not BS piles. Thanks.
Thanks for the constructive criticism! |

Regarding pray and spray, its the opposite for me, before upriseing, and like any other game, my shots go where i aim at, the head! , i always aim high, ive never had any trouble locking bang on to my target, but now, its become spray and pray for me, alot of my deaths just feel cheap now
I use a new blue official ds3, auto aim indeed does feel better off, but only by a fraction
Theres just no precision at a decent sensitivity, small adjustments on the ds3 arnt so small as they should be, fecked up deadzone?

Cool. I'm sure I can dig up some of your extensive research.
This isn't the thread to cry about things though.
Any advice, fits, positive, enlightening, motivating things? Or are we just gonna be sad about a video game?
Please contribute. |
