I play random times. Mostly helodeck only server. Such an ez map. No need for hrv. Only four rooms. Nobody goes upstairs unless it's KOTH. Mass killings with smg.

Random times, I stream the game often because I have no other games to stream right now, really only playing a lot until GW2 is released.

I haven't really played the game for a week or so because I don't have time and I'm not really a fan of the spawn mechanics in objective maps. Guess SC2 and competitive TF2 take so much time -_-
Anything new since the HAR nerf? I would really like to see a competitive no-respawn gamemode.

They are doing almost nothing to increase or add any competitiveness from what I see. A new tank-escort mode is coming soon, but there is no way that will be seriously played in my opinion. There are heavy versions of some weapons in the game files already which will shake balance quite a bit from what it seems like e.g. Heavy Bolt-Action, Heavy Machine Gun, etc. For what it's worth, this is a casual game, in the same vein as COD.

Don't really know why you'd need a heavy bolt action. A regular bolt action can be modded to hit about 210 if I remember correctly.

After blowing like 1k gp on different guns today, I've found heavy rifles to be my favorite guns. They can do a lot of damage and the recoil is pretty much in the sweet spot for me; it is low enough that there isn't too much side to side motion while high enough that you need to fight it a bit.

The recoil on HARS is vertical only. They also kill in three hits.

It's basically the entire reason people label it as overpowered :p

This game blew me away, it has a very similar graphics engine (unreal/crytek are sooooo similar) to Crysis (Crysis 2 also) and stunning graphics for f2p microtransation FPS. I would recommend it to anyone, only flaw imo is how fast guns "trash" with gp pts, it is a neat idea and I like to think of it as the parts are over used and you have to refit but it's like everytime I log on its 5-6 things trashed (everytime).
8.5/10, better than MW3 online and Crysis 2 (but not BF3)

I got burned alive twice today ^^ not fixed.

Game is very fun for it is. If you like military style shooters, you should give it a go. Best f2p I have tried so far
|
Recentish patch buffed the graphics that were already awesome to begin with - though wish they would tone down the whiteout on some maps
Also very very disappointed in the Burst fire rifle
Had a guy at almost close range and kept the reticule centered on his upper chest for 4 bursts - every single bullet sprayed wide 
For a skill based gun it only does 5 damage over the fully auto assault rifle and is less accurate.
SMG is also extremely powerful
I'm sad cause I always preferred burst fire rifles and the one in this game is just useless
|
Hm... Good to see this thread come back.
Haven't really played the game that much lately. The spawn system hasn't changed and that's probably the #1 thing I hate about the game (You can have somebody spawn right behind you/near you/right in front of you ala CoD spawns which is absolutely fucking bad if you ask me).
It's fun to play from time to time and pop people's heads off with a Sniper Rifle. The head hitbox is pretty damn huge and it's way too easy to just outright destroy an AR/SMG user mid- to close-range with a quickscope headshot (or just a Revolver headshot). It's actually not fair lol.
|
I quit entirely after I got max level and the game got boring. Now they raise the level cap again =_=
If anyone on TL is playing, I'll join with you if I can.

SMG's seem to be ridiculously overpowered compared to other primary weapons. A default setup SMG can plow through enemies in close-medium quarters with ease, and only at long range (which there are very few circumstances where you have to fight like that) will you need to be careful with it. I played with one a while, decided it was way too good with too few drawbacks, and went back to my 200 Bolt Action Rifle. At least with those you have to wait a while to shoot again, and it's not a guaranteed kill against someone who has teh armor for it.
