It was a tad op. I mean be honest with yourself. When you and 5 other guys can hide behind a hill and take out enemy vehicles at will and not have to expose your self to incoming fire like the other factions. ./shrug

Game play wise, yeah, just a tad. Real world wise I'll take any advantage I could get.

If where gonna make this game balanced get rid of the VS direct fire laser beam of death and give everybody auto lock on or self guided with a beam if you can keep it on target. :P

LOL Your complaining about the Phoenix been changed? it was the shittiest thing NC had...its DPS was terrible and it left you completely vulnerable. Iv done somany passes along nc base walls in a skeeter and taken out +3 phoenix users in a single 120kmph+ straif.

Lmfao. I'd have traded the Phoenix for the Lancer in a heart-beat.


Anyway, we have rechargeable shields now don't we? The annoyingness of having to heal minor damage all the time is gone

It's not the fact that their damage was shit. It's how many NC fired them and that you couldn't fire back. They didn't have to risk getting shot to destroy all of your CE, turrets, terminals, etc. Striker/Lancer users had to risk getting shot to do anything.

Yeah, the Phoenix was unrivaled in annoyingness, but I think you're severely under-appreciating the Lancer if you think five phoenixes behind a rock would achieve more than five lancers sniping tanks and BFRs in unison (I'm not saying it's OP, it's just very, very nice.)

Not at all. I use the Lancer daily and it is the best concentrated fire AV weapon there is.

They could always just reduce the turn radius on the Phoenix missile, if the big thing was that it can be fired from behind cover.

But jeez, is that a big deal? I would've figured the fact that it can hit enemies that are behind cover would be more annoying.

Keep in mind this is from a NC perspective.

It was both that they don't like.

I simply took umbrage at the false assertions made by the mind numbed VS robot.

One who has finally admitted that the Lancer is the most powerful AV in PS.

Phoenix drivers are nothing more the cloaker/sniper bait....period.

Next Gen-Phoenix should be something like: Mark - Lock - Fire - Forget & an alt Dumb fire mode.

Hopefully the advantage to the Phoenix 2.0 will be something like a shorter lock cycle, a missile that is the toughest to shake, or hits the hardest vs. any hard target.
