NC weapons don't feel polished

mbarrett · 2012-10-03, 07:46 AM

I have played the NC and i feel the weapons feel cheap and tacky and they don't feel accurate , therefore i have been playing vs as i find their weapons ar much better , what do you think ?

Well, they are NC weapons.

yes it is beta and i really hope they adress this and remove the sound of the weapons as i also feel they sound awfull

Ughh gonna have to disagree with all that except maybe sound but I dont care as much about sound. The NC guns feel pretty damn good to me but I havent tested any other factions to compare.

Sound in general is not too great in PS2... that's not really an issue of the NC guns. I hope they'll invest some more time into sound effects.

Yup.

And yes kids, it is a beta, but if you think this game is going to somehow going to be miraculously different at launch, you're fooling yourself. "it's beta" has rarely proven to be an acceptable point in retrospect. 90% of beta has bee new certs, framerate fixes and balance fixes. The overall art direction is still the most dated, ugly thing I've seen in years; the sound IS bad, and the gameplay is wonky, and does make consessions to be an MMO, regardless of Smed's blind hype. This game looks great on video when scenes and firefights pass by in an instant, but it still handles like shit and has a lot of really unpolished and under-develped aspects and nuances that players just don't want to admit to.

Sorry kids, but there's just not a lot of hope at this stage. I'll keep checking in every patch, but thus far, the game is still ugly as shit, plays like shit, sounds like shit, and the devs seem more focused on balance complaints from 30 year old PS2 Outfit leaders than making a game that anyone clicking an ad banner for PS2 on the net will give a fuck about or find entertaining.

I hyped this game so hard to my friends, but it just isn't great yet. I hope it will be in the end, but I doubt it.

I'd like to point out that I categorically disagree with your opinions on the play, look, and feel of the game, and further, am confused by your continual referring to the forum population as kids while simultaneously implying that the most vocal parties are not.

That's right. One sentence.

I'm sorry you don't enjoy the game.

They're a lot of people who do. Constructive criticism is fine. But just QQ'ing without anything to say besides, "the game is bad" make us lose interest and trust in anything and everything else you have to say.

The only thing I don't like about the NC guns is the sound. A gun that makes "wlub" (wub? blub? I have no idea how to type out that sound) feels like shooting a paintball or an energy weapon of sorts and not a magnum type. But I have grown to like it and have to admit that the sounds make it easy to tell what faction is shooting around me.

They're not supposed to, they are adapted mining equipment. They are slapped together and fabricated from altered designs, not always true firearms.

And NC are not supposed to be accurate, they are supposed to be powerful, the same way TR is supposed to be fast.

VS sacrifices a little of each for accuracy.

I really like the sound in this game. It is all so varied and distinct. The TR are like

Ta-ta-t-t-tk-tak-t-t-t-tk

and the NC are like

Block-block-block-wob-clop.

and the VS are all

Fwis-tee-phwee-we-we-wizz-sniz.

Yeah... hyphonated onamatapeiaish, muddafakkaz!
