K Besides When the Expansion to Be Released! Will they be adding any extra Battle Rank's! If So How Many?

DDSHADE · 2003-09-10, 07:48 PM

it sould be about to BR25 and at BR21 get a new uniform upgrade and at BR24 you should get a fourth implant(maybe)

but these should be BONUS BR's so it should take A LOT more xp to get to them

Somewhere I heard they were not planning on adding any BR. Hopefully they think otherwise due to once you reach BR20 or CR5 then there's not much else except to play for fun or help out your empire and outfit. Adding BR would help keep people longer.

P.S. And no offense meant by this, but asking for two nerfs to an opposing Empire at the same time you ask for a buff for your own is really kinda cheesey

I am NOT asking for a nerf. Nor am I complaining endlessly like some people. But months before PS came out I read EVERYTHING. The NC overall strenght was power, TR higher rate of fire, VS manuverability. Pretty much all of them are true. Except the Jackhammer fires so quick and powerful that it just doesn't seem right. I just want to know why they did this, and what their intentions were when they designed it. If you ask this, don't ask if they are going to change it or nerf it becouse then they would blow it off.

The Jackhammer has the slowest rate of fire of the 3 Empire specific HA. It also does the most damage per shot. It follows the idea behind NC weaponry, slower rate of fire but biggest punch.

sirmurphy · 2003-09-11, 01:31 PM

The jackhammer does have a slightly slower rate but at the amount of damage it does the rate of fire may be just a bi too much.

sirmurphy · 2003-09-11, 01:47 PM

Oh and to my question whens the lodestar coming out?
Can it transport all vehicles?
Thanks for your time .

question about cc beta:

If there is a Core Combat beta, will it be invite-only, sign-up, or possibly previous PS beta testers?

It is slower than the others but it isn't slow.

Because if it WAS slow it would be underpowered. Or would you rather be able to lug around a Vanguard cannon?

Now please, lets get back to the topic of CC and questions about CC.

Anybody ever see the Aqua Teen Hunger Force with the Moonites?

"It will destroy you" as the big dot travels about 1 mile an hour, I think that's what Otis is hoping for

Phaden · 2003-09-11, 05:26 PM

YES!! GO AQUA TEEN HUNGER FORCE!!!

Number one in the hood G

Happy lil Elf · 2003-09-11, 05:54 PM

I never said it's slow, I said it's the slowest. NC is supposed to have slower firing weapons than the other two empires, not just slow firing weapons period.

But by all means, give me a Jackhammer that only fires once every 5 seconds but does the same damage that a Lasher or MCG can do in five seconds of holding down the trigger and I'll happily one-shot 4 or 5 people at once

Thats exactly the problem, I have come face to face with enemy many time where we both start shooting point blank, and I will always lose against a jackhammer every time using my lasher, and yes had full health and reinforced suit on. this is consistant, so now i loot hammers as much as possible.

I figure that the weapons in CC will be better or iqual to the best of the weapons currently out, so as to balance the fire power between empires.

As for the balance in population between the empires, thats all screwed up now due to the weapons weakness of the VS, so many players either quit or changed empires.

They know they goofed, so new weapons that are universally available will have some iqualizing effect, and at least help balance the fire power a bit.
