NC overpowered? don't think so...

[Milenko]

Noticed on the poll, lot of people seem to think NC are overpowered. I belive that on the Emerald server we just have numbers, while on markov we get our butts whipped because we have less units then the other empires.

Right now it looks as though to me that the empires are equal, just whoever has the bigger force usually wins. Also Vanu have been winning a lot on some of the servers... Yesturday Vanu has 3 wins and NC and TR togethor only have 2. The NC have the win on Emerald which I belive has the most men of the 3 empires on the server.

-=Just my thoughts=-

i think its about even right now..vanu are finally showing as good players, bout time imo

Lately TR seems to be getting their act together. Today is probably the third day in a row we took solsar over in about an hour's time. Heck TR even had more of a population than the NC at one point. That doesn't rule out the fact that TR and VS HA weapons need some love though

VS weapons are the same. Except the pulsar is deadly as hell now, its only medium assualt. And im nasty with it. I think i might ditch my heavey assualt cert and get anti vehicular.

neo its me unk0wn whats up ? hehe ...thats all i have to say. o ya and early today it was the following as the ammount of ppl on

TR = 32%
Nc = 35% (- 2% exp)
VS = 31% (+1% exp)

The only thing I don't like is the suckiness of NC MAXs vs other MAXs... We suck.

I see someone hasn't played as a VS MAX lately.

I'm not sure about the other server populations and such, but I feel that VS on Emerald needs quite a bit of love. They were at 13% earlier today. And I haven't played a VS MAX since beta, but I'll take Arakiel's word for it.

As far as the NC being overpowered....YES they are! I don't care what ANYONE says, the n00bhammer needs to be adjusted more in line with the other HA weapons. There's a reason why people from the other empires are stocking them in their lockers...

And the population on Emerald is still in favor of NC. They are consistently "winning" on MyPlanetSide.com, with TR close behind. Hopefully TR skill will outweigh the NC "zerg".

[Arakiel]

NC almost always has the largest population. Usually I see something like this:

36% NC
32% TR
32% VS

That 4% difference makes a huge impact, even if it is a fairly small chunk of the whole.

nice post faboy, now lets disect

" And I haven't played a VS MAX since beta, but I'll take Arakiel's word for it."

umm no, play it first before u agree, u, obviously, have never played an NC max unit either? they are shit unless they are leading a group through doors.


"the n00bhammer needs to be adjusted more in line with the other HA weapons. There's a reason why people from the other empires are stocking them in their lockers..."

interesting, alot of us have strikers and lancers in our lockers too, should we nerf the anti-tank weapons to even it out? ur logic is flawed because u can see u get raped alot in battles because u rush in, right?

and no one can control population, we arent going to just switch and lose all our certs because we have 3 % more, we just take the % hit instead

Stop MJBuddy, just stop. First off, NC MAXs DONT suck unless they were changed dramatically after Beta. Their AV MAX and AI MAX kill everything that moves! The AI MAX is basically a Jackhammer mounted on a huge piece of armor. Secondly, you can't compare the empires AV weapons, besides they all are a pain in the ass to go against. Vanu have a Anti-Infantry/Tank sniper rifle, Terran have a lock-on that can follow a ship for a long-ass time, and NC have a TOW missle. The point you have AT weaponry in your locker is irelevent, the question is, how many MCG's or Lashers do YOU have in your locker. The Jackhammer is absoulutly crazy, a guy can rip your ass apart from atleast 50 meters away. This isn't a rant, whine, or cry for nerf, it's fact. Keep your Jackhammer, I'll pick you off anyway with my bolt driver. That's my .02.

[MJBuddy]

well, they are improving the other 2 weapons, i personally would like to see the JH taken down in COF, but i dont even use it anymore, so its not an issue

and yes, our AV and AI max are nothing great, AI has no range and AV has crap for dmg, however, our AA max IS pretty damn good...built in 20 shot striker isnt bad...

[SandTrout]

Scattercannon bites hard. It may be decent when compared to basic infantry weapons, but put either NC AV or AI against either Terran AV or AI, the terran will ALWAYS come up on top if he can even aim in the general dirrection.

Not to mention the Terran AV MAX is better against infantry than the NC AI MAX, and the Terran AI MAX can do damage around corners. Don't know about the Vanu, but I find it much easier to fight against their MAXes than against the Terrans.

[FearTheAtlas]

The DC MAX is shit against infantry now, but the pounder...well...ok, that still kicks ass but still. We don't have a lock-on MAX with a 1000m range...god I hate that when I fly a lib
