Crazy vanu... you won't be able to snipe with a lancer, it's to slow.

Well if you don't have a rocket launcher then you'd wanna do as much damage as possible.

Then I suggest you lay in front of the max suit pretending to be a corpse, and hope he trips over you.

Yeah then shove the bolt driver us his poop chute and blow his brains out.

Ouch.

Read about the Lancer. Second fastest projectile speed. Who cares about reload time, it is supposed to take out tanks, so what do you think it will do to you? Do not attach traits that apply to your AV weapons to us. The Lancer is NOT a rocket launcher. I repeat READ ABOUT THE LANCER BEFORE YOU MAKE A POINT ABOUT IT. Oh yeah, can't go prone, Carl.

Wheter or not you can snipe whit the lancer depends on it's CoF at longer ranges... however seeing how it's a beam weapon it should be pretty accurate.

NeoTassadar · 2003-03-06, 11:30 AM

Ah, yes. We will have to see about that. Yeah, it will most likely be accurate because it is single shot, so recoil doesn't matter.

Zatrais · 2003-03-06, 11:33 AM

Single shot? The lancer has a slow refire rate.. it isn't 1 shot and discard it like the decimator.

NeoTassadar · 2003-03-06, 11:35 AM

You don't throw away a single-shot rifle, either. Just means not semi/full-auto. One shot, reload, repeat.

Destroyeron · 2003-03-06, 11:39 AM

It says not aplicable if its single shot.

NeoTassadar · 2003-03-06, 11:42 AM

I stand corrected. Same priciple, though. Gives enough time for CoF to close back up.

back onto the whole max thing, how fast will a max be able to turn normally? Will he have slow turn rate or will it be based on mouse speed? Just wanna know, i think it would be funny to circle straf and knife a max.

Camping Carl · 2003-03-06, 12:49 PM

it is supposed to take out tanks, so what do you think it will do to you

Given that armor piercing bullets do half damage agaisnt nonarmored targets, (meaning the devs don't want any weapons that are good agaisnt everything) I would pay more attention to the vanu guy with the lasher or the pulsar.

Oh yeah, can't go prone, Carl.

Wow, really? I suppose next you're going to tell me there's no weapons of mass destruction? Or jetpacks? Or that you can't one-shot-kill a max suit? I was kidding, so lighten up.

Destroyeron · 2003-03-06, 02:41 PM

Don't know it that was sarcasm, but yeah you can't prone. Only squat and stand.

Zatrais · 2003-03-06, 02:53 PM

Look at the newest PS vid, you sit inside a turning and strafing NC MAX.... they move pretty damn fast.... faster than i expected
