EPTAlso, that sniper rifle is so hard to use, is it just instant hitscan weapon or do I need to aim in front as I have been doing the latter.

http://www.twitch.tv/zprotoss/videos/ Its a slightly different style than say TribesCast, but if you're looking at some analysis of what teams are doing you might find it more to your liking. | ||

I started watching a couple old matches on tribescast, buhlitz' and blinks twitch yesterday and the level of abstraction is a bit off. To cast Tribes I think you need to do what you're attempting- telling how the offense is timing to run and disrupt the defense and how it's resolved in between. --- Oh you're also doing way better than anyone else on pure commentating play by play as you're anticipating what's going to happen. In fact, I'm able to follow the game just listening to you while I'm typing this and watching KSL. | ||

I tend to play offensive and the discjumps are so much better than a hitscan weapon imo. The LMG isn't hitscan, though its bullets are faster than the chaingun's. I definitely fear LMG juggernauts (especially with disk grenades) more than MKD juggernauts. | ||

MKD will have to do for now. | ||

Helps me get my slow juggernaut to their base so much quicker so I can start shelling their flag stand or taking down turrets for our cappers. It also can be used as a back up for taking down turrets and gens if I run out of ammo on my mirv/mortar. And I'm personally better at spinfusor dueling than using chain guns so really its an easy choice for me. | ||

But on the larger maps I tend to get juggled by 2 soldiers in the midfield while the outer routes are just too long to do without discjumping. I do agree that having the LMG + disk belt does do the same thing albeit leaving me without belts to duel. | ||

My /stat_fps kept showing a framerate of around 60fps but the game always felt like it was going more at 20-25fps. This made a huge difference for whatever reason. I have no idea if it will work for other cards. | ||

I've played with vsync settings and have put the graphics on minimal, but still get slight mouslag in-game and massive mouse-lag on menus. Anyone know of this problem? Edit: The game is sick though. I'm sad that you don't go very quickly when Surfing. Surfing in cs sort of puts it to shame. Fun anyway. | ||
