Stupid TR complaints - Page 3

Accuracy in mass = TR

No one can agrue that it's probably easier to shoot TR weapons.

I'm sorry you disagree Spiff but most everyone else agrees that TR is the easiest to kill with.

I mean really how much skill does a pounder or even DC take? They spray death everywhere.

If the TR are complaining how come every other thread over the the PS forums are about nerfing the striker, TR maxes, cycler, and other weapons?

The only TR's who spray and pray to kill are the ones being killed. It takes just as much skill as you say to fire off the TR weapons.

Jarlo, you fail to realize that I have mostly played on the VS, and still do. I have said many times that the VS are the underdogs, and I understand that people like challanges (like myself). However, I don't like to lose. I really don't. Neither does anyone else. However, having a difficult challange and sucessfully overcoming makes the victory all the more sweet. I'm joining Night's Outfit on Werner and if the promises are kept, the people are smart, actually use tactics, and will work together. I know the full potential of the VS weapons, and if people were to realize that the VS is more about specialization than versatility and work on their strongpoints... then they'd win a lot more.

But that's not going to happen. Stupid people play better when stupid tactics work. VS requires skill, brains, and patience. The people who have the above have my utmost respect if they still play on the VS. The people who just think they look "kewl" and feign their leetness and brainpower by hiding amungst the purple outcasts I do not. Which one are you? I don't know. I don't know, nor will I fake to know for everyone. The only way anyone could know for sure is to play with that person. And if anyone takes that as a challange, good. I'll be playing on Werner. Give me a tell.

Yogi, I completely agree with you there, but it would seem some people don't understand the concept of old-fashioned FPS'ing skill. Most heavy weapon players within my TR outfit kill with greater efficiency with the NC *cough* Jackhammer. So, does this mean that the NC Jackhammer takes the least amount of skill to kill with? Regardless what anyone may believe... skill is skill. People are beginning to stop whining about nerfed weapons. People now need to stop whining about nerfed and uber Empires because there's really no such thing. Of course, the devs could always make ALL weapons Common Pool, but that would defeat the point of the game. But if this would actually make people stop crying NERF.. maybe it isn't totally a bad idea. Hell, the only reason I chose the TR in the first place was because I liked their color scheme - I still have not grown accustomed to our goggles, however. In fact, I may never will.

I like the TR because of their color scheme, their agile armor (reinforced looks kinda strange to me...), and their goggles. I like them.

I don't like the NC because their suits look like lego blocks. Their MAXs look way too chunky... but kind of have a strange appeal at the same time. Their color sceme is so-so.

I like the VS because their reinforced armor looks badass. Their agile I am not very pleased with (looks like Alien costumes except... purple...

). Their secondary color is nice as well. At least all of their weapon models look sweetz0r. :sarcasm:

I don't whine at all about TR being overpowered, and care very little about the nerfing of their maxes. I enjoy the challenge of trying to take down a pounder or DC with my shotgun and grenades.

I don't mind losing really, I like trying to hold out against overwhelming odds. I perceive TR as the evil empire with overpowering force, and it is fun to fight them 8)

SpacemanSpiff · 2003-06-10, 05:18 PM

Yes. That is exactly why I like to be them. Hail the Republic!

Some people enjoy failing every time, knowing in the back of your mind you could have won if your team had utilized it's crappy weapons correctly. You are one those rare individuals, it seems.
