wow you are so wrong the DC max is useless now becasue it cant kill vehicles. Do you understand it cant kill them thats what it is for and it cant do it.

[Infernus]

yea we are cause look at the facts...

On emerald TR lost tons of its people to the NC after they nerfed the Daul Cycler. The Daul Cycler wasn't as great as everybody says it was. Since last teusday I have yet to see the TR lock a continet down. And do you kno where everybody went? Do you? Do you? They went to the god damn NC and their uber weapons.

U are wrong there have u even looked at the map yall been pushin us back

In my opinion, the JH is exactly how it should be. I have only spent a short time testing the MCG and the lasher, so I won't speak of these.
The jackhammer follows in the style that this game has set for learning new weapons. It doesn't make you more deadly, nescarily (sp), just more specalized. The jackhammer is only good if you are close enough to read the brand name off his pants. Therefore, it kicks butt in CQC but really sucks in anything near medium distance. It fills a niche for a close quarters tool, aside from the sweeper shotgun.
In my opinion, if the other HW don't help the soldier in a similar way, then they need to be changed. You complain about how much the MCG and lasher suck, so why do you want to make them all like that? It costs 4 points, and all the HW ought to be worth 4 points.

Dual Cycler Max is still formidable. I liked it the way it was before. I use it less now but kept the cert.

It sucks that they made it less effective against infantry when that was all it was ever good at. The DC sucks against vehicles..you just get laughed at, shot up, and/or run over

[Happy lil Elf]

No empires AV MAX tears through vehicles like paper, that's just the way it is. I will say the DC is just as effective as the Falcon though /shrug

Maybe, Mr. Recruit, if you pulled your head out of your ass for one second you might realize that some people aren�t playing empire favorites here, that MAYBE, just maybe some people want to keep the three side distinct in there weaponry instead of having everything being nerfed to a bloody pulp, The NC are heavy hitters we have the guns that pack a strong punch, fucking deal with it. Learn to use your empires strengths, and if you can't find any than either look harder or complain to the devs about making your weapons better not killing everyone else�s..

If not nerf the jackhammer, make the CG and VS weapon equivilants NOT SUCK, bring them up to par.

The chaingun sucks.. the VS weapons are getting upped.. the TR need the same lovin

Yep, they need to make the chain gun and lasher more powerful,
I think that the hammer is about right, now the other 2 need to be brought up to match.
make the chain gun cof smaller (so it works at a range) and let the lasher have a much greater "lash" dmg.
Then I think that all will be good.

[Airlift]

I have nothing more to say about balance other than: "nerf or tweak what you will, I'm still coming for your backpack"

On the other hand, I must warn you all that regardless of everything else, we cannot share a frosty glass of STFU, because STFU is shocking vulgarity and as such is unsupported in Planetside. Perhaps you should encourage everyone to enjoy a nice glass of happy pecan pie.

[BladeRunner]

I don't know about you guys but I only really posted in this thread to razz OMA..

A Tall Cold Glass of STFU..

They need to be careful improving the MCG. I wouldn't care if they scrapped it in favour of something new.

Heck yeah. I wouldn't mind having say, a flamethrower.

Now that would be worth 4 certs!

[Plato]

I'll take a flamethrower! Smurfs and barnies on fire running around until they collapse in smokey heaps of cinders. I'll trade in the MCG for that
