Abuse Beta weapons/vehicles/balance issues

dyslecix · 2012-06-15, 05:42 PM

Post some things we can try here when the beta starts to abuse things so they can be changed quickly, not saying these things would be broken/unbalanced in the first place. IMO, people should start out trying AV weapons to rape the tanks to see if they will last long at all. Since there will be a shit load of people playing, I'd like to see how long tanks actually last when getting shot by AV. Post some more ideas.

LA with C4 nades jumping across the battlefield to rape tanks is on my list.

Cloaker squad leaders. Have squad members drop on enemy Gals, destroying them with the drop pod.

I plan to abuse the hell out of this until they make it not work anymore.

That sounds funny.

This is exactly what I pictured happening after TB's boomer demonstration in the night fighting vid... which in a way is kind of cool (in a Tribes-esque way). Admittedly the LA jets look more like the Battlefront 2 jets, so it'll probably be a bit more difficult.

parking a galaxy on top of 4 sundys to get an auto repairing spawn point.

This thread's been around for a while with things to test.

I thought the main idea of the beta is to find problems, ie flaws in the game, hit ratios etc will already be calculated.

Now, can we park the Galaxy on 4 Sundies, and then coordinate the drivers of the Sundies very carefully to get a mobile auto-repairing spawn point?

Then, the infiltrator squad leaders would have to *lead* our spawn point to droppod-kill it!
