Am I blind or is NC overpowered. - Page 4

NC MAX is strong at very close range but at medium range is far from being strong. In my opinion NC maxes are not too strong, you need to know how to counter them (I play terran, so I am not NC fanatic)

I feel atm shotguns are more of a problem than other things. But these will be fixed soon.

Only thing seriously OP about the NC weapons is the AI MAX at close range, and this is being worked on.

As far as the Falcon being OP against infantry - it is possible to instakill infantry at medium range with Dual Falcons, but only if they are dumb enough to stay in the same place for a few seconds. Very hard to hit a moving target due to slow projectile speed and ballistic drop, and Falcons very unreliable at close range, as I have found out to my cost on numerous occasions.

Is the NC overpowered?? Hmm...I guess so since we are better than everybody else.

You jelly???

I played NC up until two weeks ago, got to BR 61, Mostly HA and about 150hrs (IIRC) solo Lib'n. I started NC at launch (well around launch) and had a good time. I had some frustrations with my LMG's but made them work. Max suit was fun in CQB no doubt =).

I have played TR the past two weeks and I think I am BR 35, TMG 50 is wicked fun! Its all about rounds on target and TR weapons are much easier to do this with IMO. I love the TR HA suit.....that suit is why I got into PS2 (well kinda) but my EVE alliance I played with went NC so I hung out until they all migrated back to EVE and now I'm TR, muahaha.

I'm not a badass 4/0 KDR player...I will throw myself into the fray on a whim with out regard to my KDR. I think I am around 1.4 KDR on both cahracters.

Anyways, seems right at the time I got fed up with the nasty BLUE of NC and wanted to try out TR ( two weeks ago), something happened to NC on Waterson. We NC always put up a good fight on Jaeger and Waterson but TR took what they want, when they wanted, as of two weeks ago this has changed. Maybe NC got better cross outfit command structure? I dunno but INDAR has been neutral since server merge until NC took it this weekend, pretty impressive.

IMO good for NC, I do not think they are OP but they do have some decisive tools at their disposal in situations that are the tipping points of power in game ie. capturing points, the Scat Max being the biggy.

NC has also seen a influx of players as of late and they all seem to be fielding shotguns, pheonix's and Max suits lol. When I was NC we never had POP advantage, now it's not uncommon to see NC even or close to TR on world pop.

All in all, good times for me. I had a blast as NC, good outfits and friends. TR has been kind to me with regard to equipment, I love the looks and feel of all the gear...I do miss my Cert maxed Lib tho =(

I switched to TR from VS and I can't stop playing them because of the gear/looks.

I play TR on Waterson and it's not uncommon to see NC with higher server pop now. I've seen it as much as 3% higher than TR during prime time. Something must have happened.. there are a lot more NC for sure.
