Given the exchange of mails after battle I'm surprised you didn't raise this issue if you felt it was so abused. As I have said, I'm only aware of two players that use the flaylock and to my knowledge none of our guys have used contact grenades. Your 9/10 comment seems a bit out of line given until this battle I have been top on our side and you'll never see me use them. Also our logis and heavys are often near the top on our boards. I believe camps murdered the **** out of you guys last round and that was all heavy machine gun.

I will say this thread started as a frustrated vent after a rather unpleasant battle. So let me say I still respect you guys but that battle really made me hate that contact grenade with a passion.

I hate telling my guys what to use, just as I never complained about the contact grenades in previous battles, it just gets a bit out of hand when a large number of players on one side uses a weapon that is iffy balance wise.

If the only way to prevent the mass contact grenades I saw last night is a full agreement to not use those two weapons that can be arranged, personally I prefer to just keep things reasonable and not have a large number of guys come out with the same weapon.

So, that's a "No" I think.
On second look, it appears to be a weak and uncertain "Yes".

Canex, first of all, your one of the worst abusers of AOE weaponry. Flux nade and mass driver spam all day (or maybe that was somebody else on your team? idk..... too tired to remember). Your team, using core locus grenades backed by heavies backed by repping logis. You would even go as far as putting a dual core flaylock pistol user on a bridge overlooking one of the letters. Your upset we made a tactical decision as a team to use grenades? What are we supposed to do? Post a big sign on our asses and say "here you can ram it into us for free, and without fear of repercussions"?

The only reason we switched to grenade use is because its the only way to effectively combat what you guys were doing. Just because your not getting a 2 - 1 k/d every match now doesn't mean were being cheesy...... it just means were adjusting to the tactics that you guys have repeated consistently on the same map for the last 7 battles we've had with you. So yeah, sorry if you lost respect for us. That sort of things happens, and I wouldn't feel good about my opponent either if my record was 1 and 7......

And in conclusion...... If this was a first match that you sighted us using "contact nade spam" This is one loss of many...... Do you think if we used them or not, would it have made a difference? Im not trying to sound like a douche, but I mean...... how am I supposed to respond to a person that apparently lost all respect for my corp? Idk..... Sorry for the disappointment, if you are disappointed.

First -There "are" no rules- is what you meant to say. Second, we all know these are what the top corporations are making agreements on what to leave out of the battle. These treaties show the entire dust community that these weapons are really broken and unbalanced. To strictly use that as a tactic for victory is shameful and shows ones weakness.

LOL. I have the battle recorded, and icedslayer have also we will upload video probably tomorrow. So you can all watch all this "nade spam". Also got footage of you guys camping over the bridge with fraylock over watching A. Anyways you guys where pretty good sport sad to see your corp go out in salty note. Just hold dat L over your chest and carry on bro.

Spoiler OP claim is highly exaggerated.

i didn't play in this battle and have no idea what went on. I think a few people who play this game are sick of some weapons that are being used, but at the same time you can't really complain if someone uses them. The fact is we've been going at SVER for a while and have only won one battle. That is the only thing that matters, and the only thing people will remember. SVER haven't cheated in any way by using weapons that are available to them, or to anyone in our corp. TBH I'm a bit disappointed this thread was opened, it just made us look like poor losers.

That match didn't look to bad, its what I'd have expected from a PC match.

You could use some more experience with tanking , (04:46) I was almost shouting at my screen, really, when you're that overwhelmed by AV, you should retreat, or at least shoot at the players with the AV

And if I'm being really honest, both teams could use a Winmatar Scout

It doesn't matter what was used, what matters is who are the loser and the winners. There is no rules in Dust.

Here's the nade spam of the century. Props to icedslayer our combat camera and sub machine gun slayer. Good **** to our scout team fending off a point from multiple tanks.

Wait, Dark Legion is fighting in PC?

I thought they were a flaylock-only gimmick corp.

Lul.

Goonfeet.....
