What is Happening to the NC?

[T.H.O.L.]

All of a sudden, the NC has been slaughterd in almost ever major battle. And most men have switch sides except for the ones who truely fight for freedom, and not weapons. Is it because of the new upgrades of the Beamer, Lancer and the mini-chaingun, or something else. Why is it that the NC can't even hold a continent for 35 mins. The NC used to have Cyssor almost 24 hours a day, now, the NC can't even hold it any more, let again, hold any other cont.

well, in general, we tend to give up easily...thats about it...and since the lasher was nerfed we do a little better. today we captured basically all of oshur.

Yeah I agree with you, seems like vs are everywhere. I play all three empires (but I don't care about any of the nerfs/upgrades just whatever I feel like playing I play). One day I played tr and I've never in all of my time on PS seen so many vs on emerald. They where everywhere and i had to resort to kamakaize like tactics or else I wouldn't get killed. It's sometimes fun to get oevrwhelmed but it was just to much. With that many enemies it's hard to get anygood base caps. Awhile ago vs where needed on every server there was and it stayed like that for a long time. Now I'm looking and mostly nc are needed on almost all servers and one needs tr on another ( well when I logged on last it was like this). I hate it when people switch just because of the upgrades, I agree that they can try the upgrades out, but just to many of them are "trying them out" for to long. I don't play my nc as much though because it's on markov and I'm more towards the east coast and I get more lag from markov.

I believe what's happening to the NC could more appropriately be termed "rampant whining."

[Cyskoraeban]

Look at it like this... every time people switch sides, they loose all exp, so the hardcore people will be BR 20 eventually, and all the people who can't make up their minds, will never reach BR 20, and they'll quit PS all together

...Is it because of the new upgrades of the Beamer...
...am i dreaming?

I agree with Arakiel... :ugh:

It's been adressed before... alot of the population suddenly shifted to us VS when they noticed the increase of the leasher's power.

Now accordingly to the PS rule: If we die by it! WHINE!

See I admit whining about the jackhammer.... not a whole lot since I accepted it and got pissed off once about it....

Now we have this great new weapon! We can actually kill stuff now! But then again... the NC number and TR number of whinner seems to have shot up... so what do we get? reduced dmg over distance... so now we will have to be in their face to actually kill anyone...

Yet the jackhammer has not been reduced... it's the same powerfull weapons... but when we get one it's for a week or two and then it gets nerfed because it's too ''powerfull''

Anyhoo enough for this small rant... I will go now!

I really wish they didn't upgrade the lasher, now we have all these stupid ass Fu*king noobs who don't know sh*t and who have all their certs focused *GASP* The LASHER.

I've had one just gunning for me a few minutes before this post and I am pissed, this idiot didn't know how to gun at all and he was certed in a lasher. And then when doing a running over thru an occupied base I fu*kin lose control of my fu**in Thresher in the middle of a GD Base and then I hit a wall and get blown up.

If you want to know what is happening to VS we get all these stupid fu***** ass noobs who don't know jacksh**.

I'm sry I've just been really pissed for the past 2 days because of idiot gunners (one magrider gunner (my outfit leader what an idiot) left me repairing a perfectly good magrider saying "I'm going to go in" ok and that idiot left and I get killed by a Fu**in Infiltrator and then I loose the Magrider.)) I only had 1 good gunner, ONE GOOD GUNNER.

sry I just had to REALLY vent my mouth off on here. :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

You my friend are mentally challenged. You're complaining about the other 2 empires complaining that the Lasher is too powerful. First off -- the fact that EVERYONE BUT THE VS are complaining about it -- means it's a problem. You actually comented on how irritating it would be to have to use a lasher up close for it to be effective. WAKE UP GENIOUS -- THAT'S HOW HEAVY ASSAULT IS SUPPOSED TO WORK!!!!! And you say the JH is overpowered? Hmmm...... can the JH shoot around corners? Can the JH shoot THROUGH doors? Can the JH take out a MAX or light vehicle faster than I can say "VS is gay" ? NO, NO and NO. Ahh but the lasher can -- SO WHAT WEAPON IS OVERPOWERED?

[niplan]

Ok, about all you people compareing the lasher to the jackhammer, firstly. the jackhammer canot take down a max in one clip. the jackhammer can be dodged, if you duck behind a rock, the splatter range isnt so large that it can still kill you even if it flys 4 feet obove your head. the jackhammer canot shoot down a aircraft. and you cant sit behind a cover spot in the CC and sit there and blast from the entrance of the CC doors, to the doors of the hallway with a jackhammer and kill them with just splash dmg. You know what we do when we see VS comeing now, we say screw you. and go home and go pick a fight with the TR that we stand a chance agenst, but hey, we can barley hold our own agenst them anymore. because we lost alot of people to the VS with that happy go lucky no aim required newb toy.

TR on emerald has the most stable population that I know of, and sometimes it outnumbers VS or NC.

Thats just according to the population %%

Hmm thats funny, that lasher hasnt even been nerfed yet!!!!!! And o ya u have named every vanu specific weapon besides the actuall one that did get buffed.

[WritheNC]

Its fine. The fewer NC there are, the better we'll get.

It'll just be like the VS always have been; outnumbered, outgunned, so you have to improvise, get better tactics and coordination and such.

Although there is no real disadvantage to NC weapons compared to VS weapons. VS AA Max could use a boost, and of course the beamer also.
