CR Abilities

[pauljar1]

What are the command abilities of each of the ranks? CR1, CR2, CR3, CR4, CR5?

Just hit CR2 last night and I loaded up the Command Uplink Device and all I can do is see where the friendlies are scattered all over my map. What is the next ability for CR3? CR4? And so on...

[Tex]

CR1 - Ability to set waypoints
CR2 - Ability to use the Command Uplink to device to see friendlies and access to the Command Channel
CR3 - Ability to use the Command Uplink device to see enemies and to draw on the map for squad members
CR4 - Command Uplink to jam enemy Commanders abilty to see their enemies, Orbital Strike, and Continent Broadcast
CR5 - Better ability to jam enemies and Global Broadcast

I believe that is right, yall correct me if I'm wrong.

u get the EMP at CR3 also.

[NightWalker XI]

Would be great but the EMP sucks balls so....

[pauljar1]

Perfect! Appreciate the info.

Thanks guys.

:D

Actually...

CR3 - EMP, Draw on the map.
CR4 - Reveal all Enemies (within a Sphere of Influence), Orbital Strike.
CR5 - Reveal all Enemies (across the continent), Global/Continent broadcasts.

Also, I thought it would be good to mention that CR2's can only talk to CR2's. CR3's to other CR'3, etc etc. I'm almost 100% sure they took the jamming feature out and replaced it with EMP, but they haven't updated the in-game promotion panes yet. And if you think the EMP sucks, you aren't using it right. :D

emp = magmower's worst nightmare :lol:

[FearTheAtlas]

Indeed, I think it also downs Reavers also.

[Hamma]

EMP is pretty useful I find ;)

Especially when there is a nice minefield you need to clear QUICK

[Tryndamere]

What does EMP do to Magmowers and reavers? I've never tried it on vehicles, only have used it to clear huge mine fields, etc.

[ThundaHawkPS]

I believe the EMP sends flying vechs out of control a la jammer grenades (but in a larger radius).

[Hamma]

Does that actualy work? In my experience allot of the CR EMP crap is buggy

[MrVulcan]

Tried it on a reaver that was flying right next to me, didnt work, but it does *most of the time anyway from what ive seen* dissable ground vechs that are caught in its blast

I will do more testing with it and post the results here

[1024]

I heard (and i doubt it, but i want to confirm this) that if you shoot a air vech or ground vech with a jammer is disables it. NO way, right?

cr 3 = learn to draw human anatomy 101

That isn't entirely true. CR1s can talk to CR1s or CR2s, CR2s can talk to CR2s and CR3s etc ect via the /report command.

Just a little useful slash command.

[MrVulcan]

is it just me, or should the /c command be for all squad leaders to be able to use, makes a lot more sence than how it is now lol

[LSnake23]

EMP also reset Implants

well CR1's dont have command chat, so that might be a bit tricky. And the /report command is available only to CR3's, 4's, and 5's (although I'm not sure the point of CR5's having it is :P).

But you can only talk up, can't talk down to lower CRs

EMP doesn't hit friendlies, either, whereas jammer grenades do.

You aren't going to carry on a conversation with a higher-ranking Commander with /report. CR1's don't have a Command channel, and I'm nearly sure that /reports won't go to a CR1 if it's used by another CR1. One of the members from my Outfit used to be a CR2. When he'd /report I'd get it. /report will go to any Commander with a higher rank than yourself as long as you're within range.

Correct me if I'm wrong CR3+'s, but I've never heard of an EMP affecting a vehicle.
