HA Changes

[MilitantB0B]

Has anybody checked out the HA changes on the test server? If so, please enlighten us all. :D

[Trebor95]

Only checked out the MCG HA for TR.

COF stays 'closed' for the first 3-5 seconds of firing, then expands. It is a tighter COF than before and while strafing more bullets hit I found.

Dont think damage has gone up or fire rate, just the reduced expandability (sorry) of the COF

[Pilgrim]

probably puts it a little closer to what it was in beta... MCG owned all in beta, but they nerfed it and buffed the JH in the same patch... always a bad thing.

I'm glad they're doing this, I can say that I was worried that they would nerf the JH and make HA just a non-cert thing.

I like getting owned in a closed spaced by a Heavy Weapon... it's supposed to be that way!

Now please all you TR jag-offs who switched when the MAX nerfs went in to get Jackhammers... Go back...

Thank you

[Hamma]

I'm happy with them ;)

[MilitantB0B]

Any news on what they did to the lasher?

[Kikinchikin]

My outfit mate told me that they made both better, he thought damage was increased. But i am SOOOOOOOO happy the chaingun's cof was tightened. mwah ha ha now i can pwn even more.

[ColdbringeR]

Some please tell me the projectile speed for the Lasher is increased... Just tell me please... :(

[Knuckles]

They changed the Lasher???

Oh please God - tell me they upped the speed on the orbs!

[Fatalist]

I was under the impression that these changes were not even implemented on test yet, but would be in the near future.

[SumYungGui]

the almighty one demands lasher information!

or something like that.

The lasher hasn't been changed at all yet on test, I can't vouch for the MCG. I went in thinking the changes had gone in. I went into virtual training, got myself a lasher and thought "wow this thing rocks now. It fires faster and the orbs travel TONS faster." I tested it convinced that it was much better. Then I made some tests in reference to time and amount of hits it took to kill. I went back to the live servers, got back in the virtual training under the exact same conditions and ya know what... NOTHING CHANGED

Ya see, your mind can make you think things are better when you really want them to be. You might wanna do some solid tests on the MCG as well. As for the lasher I'm 100% sure there's been no improvement to it yet.

[Fatalist]

Yes, Havs is right on. The MCG and lasher have not been changed on test, those who are claiming that they have are preceiving it as such due to the fact that they are looking for a change, I tested the MCG and lasher and both are exactally the same still...

[Navaron]

Did they monk with the med assault rifle for he VS? I got bitchowned for a while there before I changed tactics.

[Revolver]

Thank God! No more whining about the Jackhammer being "Sooooo Overpowered"

With all the HA weapons I'm gonna be facing...I might have to re-cert in JH

[Sputty]

I don't think the changes are inplemented on the test servers

[Jarlo]

Oh my god, these are the EXACT changes I wanted!!

I'm sooooooooooooo happy, I may actually go play my VS toon some once these are in 8)
