I always have to laugh when the TR are zerging a tower with their MCG's a blazin away at the landing before the spawn room they stand there like they can't be hit or something and I kill like 3 guys with my Gauss it's hillarious. Granted this doesn't happen all the time but I usually see it at least once while under a TR zerg

Rbstr · 2004-01-05, 05:28 PM

NO its not their biggest advantage, its just that MA is not ballenced as well as is could be. The rest of the wepons are ballanced each one with its ups and downs. MA needs to be that way now.

No! You are very very wrong! No one said anything about buffing other empires... It's quite obvious that since TR's MA weapon is superior to those of other empires, that all TR should use that to their advantage. TRs should forget about their HA certs and use the Cycler full time. While we're at it, all TRs should forget their SA or AV certs too, since the Cycler IZ T3h ru13ztzz!

Rbstr · 2004-01-05, 06:19 PM

Yeah and the MCG is ballenced and the Cycler is the way the others should be. because when compared to the cycler the others fall in the dust. Always complaining about too many HA if we had good MA alternatives alot of peopl would use the certs for other things

On Emerald at least, the Terrans can give you a good run for your money. However, not sure about other servers.

Note that I said *can*. The Vanu are usually better at it- they get the Flails shooting at us, covered by Magriders on the water. THOSE are a bitch.

I dont even have the HA cert, I despise surge/agile/JH users. Everyone seems to think that the entire NC force is made up of jackhammer users, in fact most people don't use it. In regard to the 'MA Buff', I'd just like to see a slight improvement on the Gauss' clip and a slight damage nerf.

What are you guys talking about?? TeraHertz is onto something here. Take it from myslef. A hardcore Emerald TR player. WE LACK VEHICLES!!!! We practically jog from one end to the other. We barely use any Gals or Sunderers. Everyone just grabs there Rambo Reavers and lightenings and run off. Its pathetic! We certainly dont use as many Prowlers as the NC use Vanguards or the VS use Magriders.

Its ashame alot of our players on Emerald like to pull off the lone soldier act, and go on a hey day with thier reavers.

I ask that you guys sacrifice racking up kills for once so you could atleast be a driver once in awhile.

I just wish they'd have given us a chain gun for Infantry and explosive projectiles for vehicles. not the other way arround.

Outside of that I have no problem with TR and I'm only a BR 8.

Take it or leave it how you will.

I have group transport cert, and I must say it's basically a total waste for my TR char. Either the people have their own vehicle, or just plain refuse to enter a veh with you. I don't understand, but I am sure as hell dropping it soon.

Buff The Chainblade!!!!!!!!!

You see! This is the problem. I personally think the TR on Emerald are lacking teamwork. We need a serious alliance here or something. Because everyone runs around doing thier own things. They figure " Why should I ride in a Gal or Sunderer when I have my Reaver, lightening, skeeter." Because it has to do with teamwork!

Im willing to bet any money your dropping that ground transport for one of those 3 vehicles I mentioned, right?

*sigh* I figue i'll be the only driver left.

COME ON YOU GUYS!

Yeah, we TR suck, so thats why our population is declining. So, you had better switch your leet self over to TR on emerald and help us out before all our population drifts away and we are left with just NC and VS fighting it out.

Jeeze man, get real. This post is such a troll. The only reason it didn't turn into a flame war, is because of the higher caliber of poster here on PSU.

I really don't care if TR weapons are bad or not. We can kick some major rear end. You probably ran into a situation where TR was targeting another continent. The problems we TR have are population based. Unfortunatley, folks see TR weapons as weak, they flee to NC or VS, population declines, we start losing more battles, more folks leave (because they blame the weapons), and the cycle continues until the devs get nervous and wave the nerf wand over the NC/VS. Somehow we have to combat this cycle. It really doesn't matter if TR weapons are slightly weaker than NC/VS, the perception matters. And perception is what is killing TR population.

So, unless you want the current population trends to continue (or the big nerf wand to come out), then somehow, we all need to attract more TR back. SO, here is the ultimate solution:

Those leet NC and VS dudes like TeraHertz, who tell TR to just be happy, Switch to TR. Simple, problem solved. We have a larger population and battles even out again. PLUS, your leetness guides us to glory. The common folk (herd) flock back to the winning team (TR) and all thought of TR weapons buffs slowly fades away. Then you can resume your NC/VS careers. If your not willing to do this, then we really don't need to hear you defend TR weapons and blame TR tactics/leaders/lack of leetness. Switch to TR and help us fix these problems or please STFU.
