I haven't been keeping up on the happenings of planetside since the patch went live. I was looking around the OF and I caught wind of a few things that caught my interest. First of all, what was this about the vanu getting stuck in the sanc at one point? How did this happen? Also, I have been hearing about the MCG
having gotten a ghost buff in the patch. Multiple people complained about it killing them in 2-3 shots. Can someone confirm or this? I can't play right now, otherwise I would do this myself.

Edit: see next post

The suspense as to what you were talking about is killing me.

MCG wasn't touched in the patch, and theres a few people saying the MCG killing in 2 shots, I call bullshat, more than likely lag

As far as I can tell the MCG hasn't been touched, nor has any Terran weaponry. The only weapon touched is the lasher, where you now finnaly can hear the lasher bolts wind by you'r head without hurting you if you are withing a 5 meter radius of them.

the MCG is ungodly because much like the NC abused surge warping, many TR are doing the same in a diffeent fassion. They come out from behind a wall and it sounds liek MCGs firing on your side, but its one guy pounding on you.

You die, no fighting back. Period. Its a HUGE lag exploit.

well i think that its all ok now, and if i hear one smurf or baboon going on about the lasher ill hunt em down and kill em.

i think that they should leave it as it is. maybe up the prowler or somthing just to shut that faction up, but thats it.

I'm about to play now so I'll tell you whats up with the MCG in a little bit.

And stop whining cause you got killed by an MCG Surge, thats a first.

We weren't stuck. You're stuck at the sanc when you don't own any bases anywhere. We just didn't have a continent, that's all. Just for like, an hour or so.

Dual Cycler got a CoF buff apparently, I'm at Uni so cannot confirm this :(

Actually, the TR have plenty of MCG Surges. ;) It's just lately that tactic got abandoned because against the JH and the Lasher 3.0, being close was an insanely bad idea. Now that you can get close to the Lasher again, you'll probably see this tactic revived until they get 2.6 in.
