If true, Very Very Distressing


Some research done by Nexus8 and posted to the OF.

Linkage: http://psforums.station.sony.com/ps/...sage.id=569644

1. The "COF bloom when being shot " which is most prominent on the MCG, is also present on the cycler, repeater, anything empire specific to the TR. We are not convince that this nerf applies to others empires and their weapons, and even other empires which use our weapons. We are calling it "the TR NERF" as it only seems to effect the TR and their use of their weapons. Whatever the true extent of the COF bloom when being shot, we would like it removed on the basis of it simply being unnecessary and unfun, especially when its so damaging to one empire alone. Again, we havent observed this phenomenon in the other two empires, however even if we could have, we wouldnt want it put upon them either... the "feature" *nerf* is
unwelcome and unfun.


addendum, we just verified as TR that the amp, suppressor, decimator, thumper, rocklett riffle and bolt driver also behavoir this way, however, we have not observed the as of this morning the same condition in NC alts or in VS alts. Apparently this nerf effects TR only. Moose reported when fielding a puslar as TR and being shot, that his COF bloomed out sight unlike when his VS alt shot the pulsar while being shot. THis nerf appears to be in effect on the TR only, and any weapon they touch. It doesnt appear to effect the NC or the VS soldiers. Could someone fraps and post this comparing the three empires.?


We are also trying to see if this effect TR maxs as well. Originally we knew this confined to the MCG only, but over the event we more more weapons than normal and became suspicious. We wil be looking at max later today , and now we are wondering if a Terran field vehicle and is hit by incomming fire while firing, does the vehicle whether empire specific or common pool also COF bloom.... if thats case, would simply like the "Terran EMpire nerf" removed. nothing more. We dont even care who did this or why.




addendum 2: we just confirm that Terran Maxs unit when taking fire exprience COF bloom, however other empires maxs dont.

There is pattern here, someone problem implemented this along time ago to nerf down an Terran Republic which was over powered. However since that time, every weapon, max and vehicle has gotten the nerf bat and we are no longer a feared empired.

Bottomline, remove the nerf and the weapons, Maxs and vehicles are fine. they maintain their cof and therefore the benefit of using them. Dont remove the nerf we wil contine stink even with the same common pool the others use.

....and I thought this was contained to the MCG only...geez were we wrong. this is unreally unprofesional on the part of the individuals which decided to due this and leave it for such a long. Whats worse is they probably didnt bother to tell samhayneps about this ( yet another thing gone unmentioned)....ok
Further on in the post, some others tried to replecate this, and found that NC and VS do have a damage bloom, however it is not the same bloome as TR when using the same weapons. So, a NC or VS with a MCG > TR with a MCG due to the TR guy having a huge COF bloom if damaged.

Still no response by devs, and not FRAPS footage, although several folks have stated they are working on doing a FRAPS video to illustrate this.
