Mortars are actually really bad in TA. Compared to previous games they're complete jokes.

On my journey on learning how to play ctf I've found It is hard to get feedback on my gameplay because the stats showed at the end of the game dont show much. I like to play doom/jugger defense but i dont know if it is important for the team. I usually stand near/on top of the flagpost to combo cappers with mortar+spinfusor and hopefully slow them, or mow them down with chaingun, am I doing it right? Generator defense is also a part of what i do, but only when my flag is taken. Any advice is appretiated. Thanks in advance.

EDIT. Also, if someone can tell me how do I do the "Small/Medium/Heavy Enemy spotted" thingie that leaves a mark I'll appretiate that a lot too.


Yeah that's good defense. Even taking away significant health is a huge plus for your team. Defense isn't usually about stopping them from capping but instead killing the capper asap and you help with that. Now if you're on a team full of idiots (as often happens in pubs) and the guy still makes the cap it's because no one on your team is chasing/doing an emergency grab, or they suck too bad to do either well.

Generator D is good but not at the expense of not defending the flag unless there are multiple people defending and you aren't needed immediately. You gotta be careful because getting your gen up is rarely worth not getting shots on the flag capper.


Thanks! I'm starting to feel that defense is kinda wasteful because it is so hard to damage decent (180+ kph) cappers at the flag post (With the Doombringer is funny, I see myself as those AA guns that can't hit shit in the movies) Maybe a raider to chase and disrupt their defense? Capper, sniper and chaser are the only roles I feel are efficient, and I hate them all Are flag defense heavies worthy or should I start practicing something else?


if you're a jugg, the actual best thing you can do is sit on the flag and stop the momentum of the flag carrier by body blocking him. i find that to be so much more important than health


I try, but that's even harder. Even with the superheavy perk a spinfusor/thumper blast will move me from the flagstand. I still sit on top of it, but the flag "hitbox" on stand is wierd and with the reach perk they can dodge me.

I don't want to whine anymore I know I suck (hard) at this game but I like it and I want at least to be considered for scrims.


easiest way to prevent discs/thumper from knocking you off is to jet straight up in the air. this is only if you see them coming in. then plan your descent right when they are going to be on the flag. it's an easy way to counter thumper spammers or disc users coming in fast


Any competent player can MA you if you jet straight up, specially in heavy classes.

Guys, a couple of Questions:

Performance:
I am running the game on a Q9505@3,4Ghz and a gtx570. During intense fights, the frames drop to below 30 even when I switch to 1280x720 with low effects and now shadows. Is this normal?

Picture Quality:
The game has horrible level of detail blends. Especially on the new map the pillars of the aqueduct constantly switch shadowing. Do you get the same?


Fusion grenade indoors:
Should this thing be this powerful? I score more kills/generator destructions with it than with my spinfusor. Especially with the upgrades ... It's hard to play Jugg or Doom just because of how powerful the fusion grenade is indoors. Am I missing something about Jugg/Doom that should make them better?


Picture quality: I read there are some issues with anti-aliasing in this game, try disabling it.

AA is off. But I found out that the map is in beta and these bugs are known.

It'd be awesome if I could play this but it does not install. It sucks since I'd like to play it too. Using the Hi Command installer links from the Hi Rez website and I constantly get the Hi Rez Update and Authentication service failed when attempting to install it.

I managed to get it to work Had to clean my registry ,first of all because it just needed to happen, secondly because I had used to play Global Agenda (when it was still pay) and had an old install of that and the old registry key was giving the installer some trouble lol

Fractal grenade is powerful because brute's secondary is a joke and heavy spinfusor is only marginally more powerful than the medium one. I think heavy classes are quite balanced, doombringer could use some love, chaingun that isn't outdamaged by smgs would be a nice start.

As of a few patches ago the chaingun does more damage than any other rapid fire weapon.

Just started playing the beta tonight, wow is this a fun game, I love the movement and speed, nothing in any shooter is a satisfying as hitting someone midair with a spinfusor as they zoom past you. Having a blast.

Ranger is the best overall class, yes.
Sentinels are far more manageable with the current nerf.

The biggest problem right now is how fast anything dies to focused machine gun fire.

Does anybody know why there was no patch this week? Usually they release patches every week, they even released one the last week of 2011.

My guess is that either something went wrong or they are preparing a really big patch for next week.
