So... Anything constructive you want to point out about how the Striker works or how it's pay to win, even meant as just a joke?

As an all time NC soldier I feel Phoenix is MUCH more fun to use

Guess you have never used the Striker, just start moving toward a rock. All those missiles now start flying toward the rock and there goes all that DPS. Honestly it sucks more so for ground armour, in the canyons of SE Indar the stupidity of the strikers predictive missile movements shine. Ill take my SKEP all the time.

How do you battle a user controlled missile that can be fired from cover? I guess the NC still attracts all the teens. Your last sentence, I guess high school just got out eh?

I'm in my last 2 weeks of high school and I even have better sentence structure than that guy and have a more mature brain. :P

Tank pops smoke, ESF flares.. Striker useless for a time unlike Phoenix. Just tonight I shot at a Liberator and the lib did a sharp turn, the missile does a 90' turn and heads straight to the ground.

Also how can you have tactics with a 'lock on' ? You mean just get a whole squad of strikers?

Methonius · 2013-05-19, 01:15 PM

IMO the striker is not op. It is a pain in the ass when there is a lot of them in one location though. This goes for all the faction specific launchers. A couple of nights ago me and my outfit were doing the same crap with our lancers and vortex maxes on amerish. The nc couldn't get one vehicle up to our outpost. In all honesty if they were to buff any of them I'd say maybe the range on the phoenix and that is all. They could maybe play around with the striker by making it active lock but that's all speculative if ppl would like it better that way.

Sadly the stryker is currently broken and some of the rounds will some how magically evade terrain or simply follow the aircraft path. Then there is another bug where I have been hit well after I have deployed flares by the entire payload. Plus any G2A launcher in the game is amazing at simply being an area denial weapon. So it may lack killing power but its very presence forces pilots to flee or die. But OP should have given actual reasons on why he feels that way other wise he just sounds childish.

striker is ok but anyone with countermeasures will make it useless. this is why my tanks have smoke and aircraft have decoy flares. oh look, tactics wins again.

thing is anyone but TR has to run counter measures on their tank so they dont get destroyed by those things. so they have to give up the shield or the magburner

Well TR also have to watch out for lockons from your factions, everytime I get in a tank and go near the NC or VS I get lock on warnings too,so I also keep smoke close and handy.

Also at least you get a warning from our ESRLs

GeoGnome · 2013-05-16, 09:40 AM

I never saw the point in buying the striker.

I already have an annihilator.
