New Conglomerate to powerful?

[sptdexs]

I have a problem with the NC. They have the biggest base capturing advantage. There is no weapon on VS, or TR that can compete with the Jackhammer close range.

Evem in the discription of NC's weapons, it says they have very powerful weapons, but a slower rate of fire. Now, I do not believe that the Jackhammer has a slower rate of fire than any other weapon in the game, and niether does the Guass.

I think for the net patch, they should stick with thier description of NC's weapons, and slow down the rate of fire.

Excuse me, have you picked up a "lasher" lately? Try it then make a more informed judgement. (btw the gauss is a slow firing AR).

[sptdexs]

Yeah, I know overall the Lasher does own the Jackhammer medium, but in close quarters(like in base caping), the Jackhammer owns. And I dont see any difference in ROF between the Guass and the Pulsar.

why don't we just get really big knives as our only weapon, we can only swing them once every 15 min though

[sptdexs]

Haha, but what if you miss...

I stand by my statement. Jackhammer = short range. Lasher = medium range. Mini Chain Gun = "long" range.

Inside buildings, a Jackhammer is gonna make anything it's bitch.

More open fights like courtyards are the Lasher's domain.

Longer range shootouts such as base sieging and bridge battles makes a MCG more useful than the other two.

What really annnoys me about the Lasher, it how slow the bullets fly, if they flew faster, it would be the best anti-vech in the game, but its too hard to get the timing right when the vech is moving.

[Eliaas_Demens]

That's what Lasher users wanted in the first place - to be able to hit a friggin' moving target. Before the change the Lasher was enabling people to do their best Neo impression dodging all the orbs.

[sptdexs]

Lol, I would give up some some of that ROF speed for higher bullet speed.

[Intruder]

IMO (back to topic) NC are more powerfull at normal Fps tactics, run up get killed repeat.

But if you got 2 squads with compitent players, all experience in tactics and such, NC would have a harder time winning, if they concentrated around the JH.


So to conclude NC arnt too powerfull, people just have to learn to play sligly differently.

that's troll material. obviously you're not serious. you're annoyed a heavy assault weapon doesn't double as the "best anti-vech in the game" ???

as it is, lasher is way too strong against armored units.

[sptdexs]

Thats what I was trying to get out, That the Lasher is in fact a very powerful weapon, but it is to hard to hit targets when it's bullets fly so slowly.

[Smaug]

I believe the guy who said lasher is almost the most powerful AV wep meant *lancer.

If you're havng problems fighitng the jackhammer up close, bust out a lasher and wopp them form the otehr side of the hall. Is it really that hard to think that up?

[sptdexs]

huh, that'll never work, when ever i turn a corner, pop pop pop, dead. I only wish i could wait at the end of the hall for them, but I have no way of knowing when the will come
